Come Embrace Your Personal Freedoms
Join us as we joyfully thumb our nose at the nanny-state and enjoy the perks of adulthood, including drinking, smoking, and shooting; the same kind of fundamental rights the left works to take away from us every day. While not everyone who attends actually shoots our PETA-friendly clay pigeons, drinks, or smokes, they value the individual right to do so; they value the freedom our Founding Fathers afforded us; and they value the mission of Independence Institute.
Michael started in politics at the age of six, thanks to his parents. He’s been a city councilman, ran for Congress and got his butt beat, became General Counsel at FEMA, later Deputy Director, then Director, and the first Under Secretary of Homeland Security for Emergency Preparedness & Response. He’s been inside the belly of the beast and found it surprisingly satisfying and simultaneously disgusting.
