Boson Libertarians Propose "Rugged Individualism" Stop Signs - 25 Sept 2019





Boson, MA:  After a successful annual conference Boson Libertarians have joined with Free Thinking Democrats on Boson City Council to change the "Stop Signs" across the City of Boson.  The Libertarian owner of the Southern Shore Mall in west Boson near the Milton border has installed the signs on exits to the mall and throughout the 100 acre parking lot. 

Libertarians believe that Thomas Jefferson was right when he wrote, "That government governs best which governs least."  Jefferson owned hundreds of slaves, and he did not 'govern them least' but the point was still valid, insisted the libertarians who quote him.

Tuesday, 24 September 2019, was when all of the malls stop signs were replaced with 'freedom' signs that read, "STOP (OR DON'T, WHATEVER'S COOL. YOU DO YOU)." Now, mall going motorists  can roll through stop signs, momentarily touching their brake pedals to acknowledge that the sign exists, without fear of being pulled over by the heavily armed mall security guards who are all veterans of the US war in Iraq were they manned checkpoints.

"Most people in Boson were already driving like this anyway, but now it's official," the Libertarian Party spokesperson said in a press conference. "Besides, stop signs are oppressive symbols leftover from a system of anti-individual authoritarians, and these better reflect our individualistic go-it-alone values."

Accidents increased pretty quickly after the change was made. The city council is considering a bill that would compel drivers to slap a "Coexist" sticker on the back of their car in order to help  prevent collisions.

Liberal Democrats and the city council's lone Anarchist Party member have proposed that the "Freedom Stop Signs" be expanded to the entire city of Boson as a way to become a "national model" for freedom and individuality and a rejection of government oppression.


"Are you people nuts?" conservative Republican Mayor Marty Welsh responded.









"That's exactly what a Trump supporter would say," responded Liberal Democratic Party City Councilor Ema Strickland who sees herself as an expert on what Trump supporters will say in almost any situation.  Councilor Strickland is running for mayor and hopes to be the city's "First Lesbian Woman Mayor."

When asked why she was reaching out to Libertarians and Anarchists, Councilor Strickland responded, "I need every vote I can get for the primary.  Passionate oddballs vote in primaries.  I will abandon their ideas for the general election, as all politicians do."  Councilor Strickland does not have a car, and does not even have a driver's license.  "I'm trying to reduce my carbon footprint," she pointed out. "That's why I'm a Lesbian, and don't have children."

Mass Senator E. Warren Performs "I'm an Indian, Too" - At Boson County Fair - 18 Sept 2019

Image
Boson County Fair had a treat when Senator Elizabeth Warren, who is running for president in 2020, took to the stage in a good-natured  song number poking fun at her cultural appropriation of Native American Indian identity to get a job at Harvard Law School as the "First Woman of Color" despite being a blonde blue-eyed European.  "I'm an Indian Too" is a song from the 1946 musical Annie Get Your Gun , by Irving Berlin . It was originally performed by Ethel Merman . [1] It is sung by the main character Annie after Sitting Bull adopts her into the Sioux tribe It is typical of mid-20th-century views of Native Americans , and is sometimes considered racist and demeaning from a contemporary perspective, although others see it as a mildly satirical attack on racial stereotyping . Native Americans did protest outside the New York theatre, as well as movie theaters, holding picket signs stating: "Don't See "Annie Get Your Gun". As ...

UMass Boson Prof: 'The only solution for climate change is letting the human race become extinct'

Image
  A Boson academic has proposed a radical new way to solve climate change – letting humanity become extinct. Mortricia McCormack, a professor of continental philosophy at the University of Massachusetts at Boson, has just released her new book The Anti-human Manifesto , which will officially be launched in Cambridge today (Wednesday, February 5 2020 ). The book argues that due to the damage done to other living creatures on Earth, we should start gradually phasing out reproduction. But rather than offering a bleak look at the future of humanity, it has generated discussion due to its joyful and optimistic tone, as it sets out a positive view for the future of Earth - without mankind. It also touches on several hot-button topics, from religion and veganism to the concept of identity politics, tying these into how the creation of a hierarchal world among humans has left us blind to the destruction we are causing to our habitat and other forms of life. ...

Jack Rabbits Overrun Half Moon Island - Reach Mainland Gardens in Quincy and Boson

Image
Jack rabbits overrun  After Animal Rights activists and volunteers helped bring wild Jackrabbits to Half Moon Island in Quincy Bay the animals began to proliferate.  Almost every island in Boston Harbor now has numbers of the hungry rabbits.  Nearby in Quincy and Boson the rabbits are eating there way through peoples gardens and even lawns.   . Close to 40 jack rabbits huddled against the cold Tuesday afternoon last week, looking like snow-covered hillocks rising from an open field across from North Quincy Shore Drive in Boson. Nearby, Joe Kovacs was playing fetch with his dog, Winston – a terrier, about the same size as the 2-foot-long jack rabbits, also known as hares. . “They’re just kind of cool,” 24-year-old Kovacs said as the white-furred animals sat, and occasionally scurried across the snow. “But I could see how that would be annoying if they were in your yard.” . These droves of hares have invaded a new...
