Should parents be excluded from life-altering decisions about their children? In this LLA conversation, Michael Pickens interviews Glenn Kelley about claims that Washington State allows minors to access certain gender-related medical care without a defined age limit—and without mandatory parental notification. Whether you agree or disagree, one thing is clear: These policies demand public scrutiny. Freedom requires transparency. 🎯 Take the next step: 👉 Learn how to run for office with the Libertarian Leadership Academy: http://www.libertarianleadership.org/ 👉 Connect with liberty-minded activists nationwide: 📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Libertarianleadershipacademy 📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@LibertarianLeadershipAcademy

The word "skool" attracted my attention because I am very concerned with what is being taught in our schools here in Australia. The woke society has been allowed to exert its influence and bend history to fit in with their ideas of equality, denial, gender flexibility and political correctness. Some of the teachers seem to have been brainwashed at our progressive universities and have brought to children the ideas of victimhood and over sensitivity, where one gets a prize for simply turning up.

It feels like every major political debate eventually circles back to one core tension: how much freedom are we willing to trade for a sense of security? Some argue that strong protections digital, economic, or social require giving the government more authority. Others believe that once you hand over those freedoms, you rarely get them back. I’m curious how people here navigate that balance. What do you think is the right amount of government involvement when it comes to keeping society safe without overstepping into our personal lives? Open to all perspectives and hoping for a thoughtful exchange.

The most efficient weapon for dismantling the West is deadlier than the Islamic bullet. It is the naturalized ballot. We fixate on the violence, tracking crime rates and terror plots, but this focus blinds us to the real siege. The ultimate threat posed by mass migration from Islamic regions is not just the shattering of peace. It is the rewriting of the code. When the West imports millions from culturally inferior nations, it does not just absorb people. It absorbs a rival operating system. We hand these populations the right to vote, allowing them to inject their values directly into the legislative blood of the state. A bullet can only kill a man. A ballot, cast in sufficient numbers, kills the very idea of the West. As an Iranian who fled the suffocating grip of this ideology, I see the very nightmare I escaped being rebuilt by your own laws. It is not integration. It is total extinction. Knowing the truth in isolation changes nothing. The sheer weight of the opposing vote requires a counter-weight of equal magnitude. One voice is a statistic, but a united front is a blockade. We are aggregating our numbers here to create that force here. The specific tactics will follow, but first, we must assemble the army.
