   Issue 1,175 of L. Neil Smith’s THE LIBERTARIAN ENTERPRISE is now up

   L. Neil Smith’s THE LIBERTARIAN ENTERPRISE

   — An International Journal of Opinion —

   Issue 1,175, September 25, 2022

   THIS ISSUE’S MOTTO: I don’t want to overthrow the government. I want to ignore it. The former grants government a legitimacy it hasn’t earned. — Sam Hall

   THE WEEKLY CARTOON: We’re going to learn division today: critical race theory.

   A Request for Help

   Our longtime friend of the Libertarian Enterprise has been released from jail after selling his car to post bond. He would prefer to retain a lawyer rather than depend on the tender mercies of a public defender. He has identified a lawyer he would like to retain, who wants $5,000 as an initial retainer. Costs are estimated as follows:

   $5,000 for basic discovery, pleading, etc.
   3,000 for motions, including to suppress evidence
   5,000 for trial should any charges proceed to trial

   Our friend maintains his innocence with respect to the charges, and while the Libertarian Enterprise will not comment on the particulars of the situation, we do believe that everyone is owed a fair trial and the ability to retain a lawyer, with whom one is able to communicate in confidentiality. To that end, we have set up a GiveSendGo page, and our friend, and we, would be extremely grateful for any help our readers would be able to kindly provide.

   https://givesendgo.com/G3DA3

   Donations will show up as “Rule of Law,” and will be directed to an account in Cathy’s name which will then be provided to the chosen counsel.

   Thank you

   Yours in Liberty,

   Rylla and Cathy Smith
   Co-Publishers, L. Neil Smith’s The Libertarian Enterprise

   OKCupid apparently threw someone at me as a 92 % match (as in “potential mate” kind of match) who said the following:

   “I probably won’t date someone who owns or has easy access to a gun.”

   I couldn’t swipe left hard enough on that one.

   Lex Luthor had the right sort of idea in the 1978 Superman movie.

   If those in the Legislature who want to shut down New Mexico’s petrochemical industry (despite the cash from it they use for their “free everything for everyone” schemes) because they don’t like carbon dioxide (plants seem to love the stuff, they use it for photosynthesis, and thus they need it to stay alive, but they don’t get to vote (yet)), they can lead by example and quit exhaling the stuff.

   I have plenty of plastic bags for these legislators to put over their heads and pull tight in this endeavour.

   Here’s what I sent via their crappy web form to both the advertising department and to station management:

   To whom it may concern:

   I was recently notified of KOB’s plans to host a gubernatorial debate between Michelle Lujan Grisham and Mark Ronchetti.

   My question is ths: Why was Karen Bedonie excluded from this debate?

   Is it KOB’s intent to discriminate against Bedonie because she’s Navajo, not Caucasian or Hispanic?

   What do Grisham or Ronchetti offer New Mexicans that Bedonie becomes irrelevant?

   Even if Bedonie only gets 5% of the vote, about 1,000,000 to 1,200,000 people vote in the gubernatorial race. So that’s 60,000 potential viewers who might not bother doing business with KOB’s advertisers.
