- Arthur Dent - 12-22-2002

Jim Bell is an anti-government nut. After giving a speech in front of a group of Minnesota extremists about punishing the IRS, the FBI took an interest in him. During a search of his house, they discovered bomb making materials and quantities of a chemical used in creating a chemical weapon. So, why do I mention him? Because he created the idea of Assassination Politics.

So, what is Assassination Politics? The idea is to create a website where people vote on which “government slimeball”, as Jim Bell called them, most deserves to die. Then, the people contribute to a betting pool to “predict” the day and time that person will die. Whoever is closest gets the bank.

Well, if you think about it, there’s no “betting” involved, since the winner will most likely be the assassin. Or, at least that’s the way Jim Bell envisioned it.

Only one person has actually tried it. Carl Johnson created a site called “Dead Lucky” that used the idea of Assassination Politics. However, the “nominees” were limited to people involved in Jim Bell’s trials. Johnson claimed the site was a spoof. The courts disagreed and Johnson served some time, since the site was considered a threat against the lives of the people listed. Oh, and Johnson suffers from Turrets Syndrome and OCD. Go figure.

And, as you can probably guess, law enforcement officials refuse to discuss the idea.

The story I saw this in asked questions about free speech rights, law on the internet, etc. But, I know the intelligencia on this site have no interest in those questions. Your probably thinking of questions like: Why hasn’t this been done before? How do I get my neighbor on the death list? Or maybe just, Why the fuck should I care? Whatever.

Keep in mind that if they are out to get you, they will. Planted evidence happens all the time. Government is out of control and so are it's minions.
