Описание: In this updated and expanded edition of The Tyranny of Good Intentions, Paul Craig Roberts and Lawrence M. Stratton renew their valiant campaign to reclaim that which is rightly ours–liberty protected by the rule of law. They show how crusading legislators and unfair prosecutors are remaking American law into a weapon wielded by the government and how the erosion of the legal principles we hold dear–such as habeas corpus and the prohibition against self-incrimination–is destroying the presumption of innocence.
A new introduction and new chapters cover recent marquee cases and make this provocative book essential reading for anyone who cringes at the thought of unbridled state power and sees our civil liberties slowly slipping away in the name of the War on Drugs, the War on Crime, and the War on Terror.

Roberts, Bill Craig and Roman Leary.It's time to saddle up, pulp readers, for classic western action as only the Masked Rider can deliver.

Описание: From the jungles of Vietnam to the unforgiving deserts of Afghanistan and Iraq, one breed of soldier has achieved legendary status in the arena of combat--the sniper. From the authors of the classic sniper chronicle One Shot-One Kill comes a new generation of true tales from some of the most expert and deadly marksmen in the world. Meet Adelbert Waldron II, whose 109 confirmed kills in Vietnam made him the most successful sniper in American military history, and Tom Moose Ferran, who coined the term Fetch!, whereupon the infantry would retrieve the sniper's dead quarry. Also included are stories from snipers in Beirut, the Bosnian conflict, and both wars with Iraq--including the feat of Sergeants Joshua Hamblin and Owen Mulder, who took down thirty-two enemy soldiers in a single day outside Baghdad in 2003. The military sniper has evolved into one of the most dangerous and highly-skilled warrior professions. They suffer through weather, terrain, and enemy action, lay unmoving for days on end, and take out their targets with unerring accuracy--proving that the deadliest weapon in any battle, anywhere in the world, is a single well-aimed shot.

Описание: From the coauthor of One Shot - One Kill comes this compelling and nerve-racking look into the lives of police snipers as they squint through rifle scopes directly into the eyes of frantic captors. When a desperate criminal takes innocent hostages, police SWAT teams must walk a tightrope of fear on their mission to seize the threat. But as patience, negotiations, and prayer often fall in the face of an irrational killer, the deadly cool of the sniper must come in to put an end to the terror. America's elite corps of police sharpshooters has kept closed ranks until now. In Police Sniper, Craig Roberts has brilliantly captured the tension of duty on the front lines of today's urban hostage crisis. With gripping firsthand accounts of actual hostage sieges, readers will get a peak at the charged scenes of police stake out and get a taste of the steel nerves, razor-sharp focus, and pure adrenaline that police snipers must carry on their missions.
