hardcover copy of "In Defense of Looting" will run you 21 bucks at Amazon and 28 bucks at Barnes and Noble. That’s just how capitalism works for the distribution and sales of a product from one of the biggest publishing companies in the world that’s part of the Lagardère empire.
Why is the largest publishing company in France pushing what Publishers Weekly called, “a provocative, Marxist-informed defense of looting” to Americans? Because it makes money.
Learn why private property is just a social construct for only 21 bucks.
"In Defense of Looting" quickly ended up a major topic of conversation on social media.
And that means Arnaud Lagardère, the head of the French empire that swallowed Little, Brown and Company, adds to his $220 million net worth and keeps the model he married, half his age, in the style she expects at his country estate. So what if a whole bunch of small businesses, many owned by immigrants and black people, get trashed and put out of business.
"In Defense of Looting" was published by Bold Type Books, a Lagardère subsidiary imprint in partnership with what used to be Nation Books. The Nation, a hard lefty magazine, is partly owned by Katrina vanden Heuvel, the daughter of an MCA heiress who was worth over $38 million when she jumped out of her apartment window.
And then there's Vicky Osterweil, the author of “In Defense of Looting”, who graduated magna cum laude from Cornell, where he tried to make his own movie, before moving to Brooklyn to live out the hipster dream of playing in a punk rock band while aspiring to become a novelist.

It is free if you follow the instructions and steal it.
The DOJ are right to trumpet the breakup of human trafficking rings but are, apparently, overmatched when it comes to the entirely ORGANIZED CRIME staged by leftists. Schoolboy dilettante ‘anarchists’ are good for a photo op or handbags at ten paces but as the article notes there is a very determined and coordinated group in the shadows profiting from the so-called justified looting.
Better to put $21 in your ammunition fund.
“Better to put $21 in your ammunition fund.”
Good reminder. BE PREPARED to be UNCIVILIZED toward the UNCIVIL. They are not always Antifa & BLM types.

This is what a culture falls to when God is removed from civilization and man begins and ends with himself/herself. There is no right or wrong as we are seeing this year with the ruthless mobs running free, doing what they wish, with no opposition. In fact, opposition becomes the enemy of their fantasy life where they can take what they want, do what they want and, eventually, kill whom they want to kill. Sorry but if civilization loses our November election, we will begin the slide into oblivion and those who started it will end up on the dust pile of history along with the rest of us. I ask myself at times if it is possible that human beings develop knowledge to a degree where they cannot find meaning in existence or answers to the big questions of why we exist so that they begin to make up answers to suit what they want to be true rather than what is true according to God and nature. When I look at the bad leadership and the moral and ethical devastation of our West and East Coastal cities, I wonder if God is making a move. Time will tell.
Daniel nails it again.

Nobody seems to want to open any RICO investigations into anything. Both parties seem terrified of where such investigations might lead.
CIVILIZATION
Civilization is the progress toward a society of privacy. The savage’s whole existence is public, ruled by the laws of his tribe. Civilization is the process of setting man free from men.
The precondition of a civilized society is the barring of physical force from social relationships—thus establishing the principle that if men wish to deal with one another, they may do so only by means of reason: by discussion, persuasion and voluntary, uncoerced agreement.
The necessary consequence of man’s right to life is his right to self-defense. In a civilized society, force may be used only in retaliation and only against those who initiate its use.
Ayn Rand
The list is long, how about politicians
“Nobody seems to want to open any RICO investigations into anything. Both parties seem terrified of where such investigations might lead.”
It very well could boomerang back on both. Blue statists/red statists. Blue pill/ red pill.

Good Idea! While I was out buying ammunition I went by Barnes and Noble and stole a copy of “In Defense of Looting”. Had to do my part. /s

The real problem is that these young people (& the utopians they’re reading) refuse to understand human nature. No one can fix another person & make them what they want them to be. It’s the fallacy behind communism & every other ‘ism.’ People have to change themselves. Jordan Peterson was correct when he asked that kid if his room was clean. Start with yourself, don’t worry about any one else. If we all did that, the world would be a better place.
I stole my copy
