Larken Rose is Coming to Las Vegas - Saturday, August 2nd


"Government Is Not Your Friend" 

Learn why government is not merely inefficient and corrupt, but can never and will never be conducive to civilized society.

Larken Rose will be coming to Las Vegas Saturday, August 2nd, to do a talk about the government and its true effects on society. The talk will start at 5:00 p.m. (but feel free to be early) lasting until 7:00pm and will be held at "The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf" (4550 S. Maryland Parkway) right across from the main entrance of the University of Nevada Las Vegas (see below for map). Food Not Bombs Las Vegas, a grassroots mutual aid group that reduces waste and supports the local community by preparing food that would otherwise be thrown out and sharing it with hungry people, will be sponsoring the event and Nevada Cop Block will be hosting it.

Larken Rose is a well known Anarchist writer and political activist. He's also pretty well known for
having challenged the legitimacy of income taxes and for subsequently being sent to prison. In addition, he has been published on the Cop Block site, including a post and video entitled "When Should You Shoot a Cop?" That video was the subject of a lot of controversy as a result of it's provocative name and subject, which consists of asking at what point people are justified in physically opposing the actions of an oppressive government. It should be a very informative and entertaining evening.

Larken plans his talks to be at a level that is good even for the 99.9% of the population who haven't really thought much about the basis of statism before. So if you're in the area, find a way to bring along a statist or two! It will be casual, fun and comfortable (it's happening at a coffee shop, after all).

Plus, it will be free. HOWEVER, while he doesn't like charging people to attend the talks and presentations he gives, he also doesn't like being destitute, and it does cost him money to get from one place to another around the country, which is one reason he doesn't plan on any more speaking tours after this trip (and that is another reason you shouldn't miss this one). So, if you plan on attending--or maybe even if you don't--and want to chip in a few bucks so the thing isn't a loss for him, he would very much appreciate that. It's also a good way to encourage other speakers and personalities to add a Las Vegas stop to their schedules.
