Lawyers like Josh Horwitz and Casey Anderson (authors of Guns, Democracy and the Insurrectionist Idea) would have you believe that the state’s monopoly on the use of force is essential to the ’survival of democracy and ordered liberty’. [More]Except they misquote their ideological hero, Nazi-ascension-to-power enabler Max Weber, who actually called for a "monopoly of violence."
I talked a bit about that creepiness here. I have more to say, but it's in a GUNS Magazine column that hasn't been published yet, so I'll probably hold off on further comment until then.
