Who Am I?

My name is Christopher Michael. I have been working as a software engineer since 1990.

Politically, I am a constitutional libertarian. A lot of people these days don't really understand what that means. Libertarian is not liberal.

The words sound similar but they mean very different things. In a nutshell being a libertarian means I support maximum liberty and freedom and minimum government laws and intrusion.

I support the right of everyone to choose, as long as the choice or action doesn't infringe on the rights of others. I eschew the threat of violence unless it is the last resort and only then in defending my own liberty or safety or the liberty and safety of others. I agree with the non-aggression principle, and I agree with a person's right and God-given duty to defend oneself, family and friends from the threat of violence or of having their own liberty diminished.

I adhere to the principle that the US Constitution enumerates a few of the God-given rights of His children. None of those rights are privileges. The are indeed inalienable and cannot be taken away without breaking God's law, including the right of every individual to speak or express themselves in whatever way they see fit, except when that expression infringes on the rights of anyone else. NOTE: Having hurt feelings does not infringe upon your rights, or mine.

Freedom of speech is paramount! I support and will defend the right of every child of God to express themselves, even when I disagree with their expression or what it represents. I also reserve my own right to do the same.
