Irwin Schiff (Feb. 23 1928 - Oct. 16 2015) at the Libertarian Convention 1996

[@spahr001]

Thank you Peter. This is my first exposure to your dad and I'm moved nearly to tears by his conviction and drive.

[@deaconyates2671]

Me too, I'm floored. I'm inspired and deeply saddened at the same time.

[@luchi.el.zorrito]

+spahr001 Irwin Schiff called everyone out in this video, it is beautiful :) I've heard of Irwin Schiff before from past videos. Too young to see him speak. Peter's father is spot on!

[@MrDonkov]

No wonder they put him away, he was way too dangerous. Went out full guns blazing, far away, but no cover. Your dad was a true hero and what would the world be without such men. He is an example for us to follow, so men again become men. I am sure he was proud of both of you. My compassion

[@marinaa7875]

Sincere Condolences Peter. Your father was a brilliant man, may he rest in peace whilst his words of truth & wisdom continue to enlighten

[@luchi.el.zorrito]

+Marina A This man is amazing and the general media is silent on him :/ I've been sharing this about everywhere lol.

[@Pdrum2]

+Marina A He's such a great speaker

[@888strummer]

+Marina A I fully agree with Marina A and also offer my condolences to Peter Schiff and all Schiff family members

[@chris77777777ify]

Fuck the Rothschilds

[@gregmanarino2557]

+Marina A I bet you would not say that if you ended up broke and prison as a victim of his scams.

[@nilphuxgiven]

I hope and pray that his loss is not in vain. This filthy, evil government and their lackeys will be dismantled and destroyed some day and what a wonderful day that will be. Sorry for your loss, Peter. He was a great, great man. Thanks for posting this vid, it shows how awesome he was.

[@risaias]

Peter, I think you were blessed to have had that man as your father.

[@chriswroads]

I like this guy, conviction morals and balls. I can understand why gov hated him. Cant have people like that running around pointing out the crimes of the kings

[@Thiiink]

kings?

[@Mafhiw]

People who dedicate their lives to promote individual freedom are rare. A true loss to society.

[@strengthnglory]

I agree

[@thomascrimlisk8297]

He was a great man so sorry for ur loss

[@joemcgee1172]

Our loss

[@IdoCareForPeople]

even Gandhi was throw in jail for defying the British thugs and their BS government of extortion when he refused to pay tax on salt from the sea... IRS seems no different.....You father is a righteous man Peter....his wisdom lives on....

[@BillyChandra]

Sorry for your loss Peter. Mr. Irwin Schiff was a great man.

[@franmichelena]

He lived and died a hero.

[@montgomeryzeke]

Great man. He's def one person I'll never forgot. Sorry for your loss Peter.

[@BoffinGrusky]

Peter, My deepest condolences for your loss. Your Dad was a brave man, driven by his deeply held beliefs. He fought the good fight, and will be remembered as one of the fearless warriors for the cause of individual liberty, during the early era of post-liberty America. God Bless you and your entire family.

[@pretorious700]

Brilliant and principled man, the way he was treated was shameful.

[@aletoledo1]

What they did to him was a crime. I wish there was something we could to bring justice for him.

[@DuncanL7979]

This is an absolute gem. Your dad was a great man Peter. May he rest in peace.

[@TheSilverEnthusiast]

What an incredible thing to see. Irwin was a true patriot and shall continue to be a figure of inspiration in the fight for liberty.

[@jbgant8513]

What a wonderful honest and intelligent man.

[@CritterCrew1]

Wow, I didn't realize the libertarian party had such a following in 1996. It seems much smaller today. Much like how Irwin says things have gotten more authoritarian in his video, I think it has continued down this path. Irwin was quite the motivational speaker. +Peter Schiff, you should run for office too!

[@edwardtoppe9150]

+Ryan Anderson...Peter already ran for US Senate in 2010....also the Libertarian Party got more than 1 million votes in the 2012 general election...a record in its history.

[@strabo1st]

+Ryan Anderson he did...

[@CritterCrew1]

+strabo1st I should have clarified, for president as a libertarian. ;)

[@MOPEDBRAD]

Most people are libertarian leftists, when you drill down to brass tacks.

[@UnknownXV]

+Edward Toppe Million others like us out there. Too bad there's another few hundred million who are utterly insane.

[@Juvenal10]

Hey Peter, sorry for your loss today. This is the first time I have listened to your father, and I have never heard such a unique political viewpoint like his through my 35 years of life. A true patriot. I've experienced a personal awakening on many of life's facets. I thank you and your father, albeit this first time, for opening my eyes to a different political and economic perspective.

[@marcorubio2962]

So sorry to hear the news Peter. My sincerest condolences to you and your family. God bless and stay strong.

[@Aussie_Anarchist84]

What a legend this guy is. Libertarians should get together to fund a big budget movie - the life of Irwin Schiff, political prisoner, what the government did to him etc. It's disgraceful. Children should be learning the whole story of Irwin Schiff in schools for hundreds of years into the future. Unfortunately, governments control school curriculums, or outright own the schools, so that will never happen. Thank you Irwin for having the balls to take on government the way you did. This man carried his balls around in a wheelbarrow.

[@someguy6924]

What a great man, and the epitome of a Patriot! Thank you Peter for sharing. Rest in peace Irwin Schiff

[@ToGetToTerrapin]

Peter, your father was correct then, and his message still resonates with patriots everywhere. I didn't realize Irwin campaigned in '96, but this man was obviously far too dangerous with regard to the "establishment", no wonder they illegally incarcerated him and "threw away the key". My condolences.

[@U2GuitarTutorials]

My deepest condolences. I'm so sorry for your loss. Your father had courage and was a true American hero. He stood up for what we shouldn't have given up.

[@juandipong1266]

Today is a sad day for all people who believed in liberty and freedom. RIP Irwin and thanks for all that you have given us.

[@Christian-bc2es]

You can't help but like him.

[@bravovonmuller3149]

The Greatest speech I have ever heard, An American Hero.

[@Kleroterion]

A great American hero and a modern political prisoner, his memory will live on. My condolences to the family.

[@williamsmith-wn2bp]

RIP Irwin Schiff you was a great man

[@BrokerBarbara119]

My deepest sympathies for your loss Peter. Your father is a Hero! Good journey Irwin! You will be missed and never forgotten.

[@petersmith4914]

Truly great man. I didn’t know him personally but read all his books and ran an income tax forum back in the 90’s dedicated to his work. He was a true pioneer in the tax movement and lead the way for people like Dave Champion who was finally able to put the pieces together and help people legally leave the income tax system. Irwin Schiff was a true American hero.

[@caliaga33177]

Your father was one of the bravest men I heart of. He was a Hero, and a valiant who fought for his ideas, for the rights, and well being of the people of this country. His ideas won't die with him! My condolences Peter Schiff!

[@torea26]

Peter - your Dad, your Father, your role model - you're fortunate to have been born of great stock! Our sincere and heartfelt condolences to you and your brother Andy. We enjoyed the video clip put together of your father from 1996 - all we can say is WOW! What a man your father was! Keep the faith, speak truth and make your father proud. Hang in there as we know you will!

[@juggernautsvaderdmunchkinland]

What an amazing man!!!! Sorry for your loss, Peter. His charisma was exquisite!!!

[@slhines7]

What a brilliant man he was. My deepest condolences to your great loss. May he Rest In Peace. Blessings to your entire family.

[@SuperFinGuy]

So sorry to hear, his legacy will live on.

[@coinlord420]

Words cannot explain how much of an impact he has made to me and my friends. God bless you and your family Peter.

[@ireneabbott]

I'm so sorry for your loss. You were lucky to have such a great dad! Praying for your peace and comfort. May God give that to you and your family in abundance!

[@jordannorton1795]

What a legend your dad was Peter.

[@danpiraino]

Your Dad will always be a true patriot. My most sincere condolences.

[@VerticallyUp]

Oh Peter, I'm so sorry my friend. Don't let those animals who wrongly imprisoned your beautiful father imprison your soul. Keep being the man, father and husband your father showed you how to be. The world shines less brightly now his gone. 'Three cheers for Mr Irwin Schiff'. God Bless Peter..!

[@sabrewolf479]

What a great man. It's a pity we never had Irwin as a president. Peter, please post more videos of Irwin!

[@brianthehawk]

Very sorry for your loss, Peter. Mr. Irwin Schiff was a great man and a true patriot. He was not just intelligent and sharp, but compassionate and courageous too. These are rare virtues that any son would be proud to have in his father.

[@BAZCATS]

My sincere condolences Peter - your father was a truly great and very brave man ,,, talk about commitment to a cause! God be with you and your family. ~ South Africa

[@JohnPChild]

May Irwin's Memory Be Eternal. God Bless Irwin Schiff.

[@Doyaman]

My deep condolences for the lost of your father. The fight must continue and the victory is on our side. Keep it up Peter.

[@tommytrojan09]

My deepest sympathies to you Peter and your family during this difficult time. Watching this video of your dad, Irwin, was a very beloved man and his legacy will continue, his books will continue to keep people informed of the organized crime that dwells in Washington. Irwin Schiff's message will live on.

[@nevropatholog]

it is always hard to lose a parent; i am sorry for your loss.

[@MilionerstwobyJanFijor]

I had a pleasure to meet Mr Irwin Schiff and become a sympathizer of the paynoincometax.com movement.

[@pauloemiliocosta7090]

My deepest condolences Peter. God bless Irwin Schiff a true humanitarian. Lets continue his legacy in the fight for freedom.

[@GeordieFX]

God bless your father Peter and please accept my condolences for not only your family's loss but those of the "free" world. Your father's message will live on no doubt. RIP Irwin A Schiff.... I now bow my head in respect.

[@dumeviltwin]

Good men are often born into societies that are undeserving of them. Yet they proceed in truth regardless. They are beaten, bruised, enslaved, and even killed. Yet they remain unwavering in the messages written upon their hearts. Brave souls these are, who fight because the love of their countrymen compels them. They march knowing that it will not be reciprocated equally, or even rewarded with appreciation. They speak so that through their words, the ideology that is good, remains alive and well. Few are these men, that emerge so sparsely throughout time, that they can never be forgotten. His fight lives on, as does he, in all who take up the banner that he has fought so courageously in defense of, that it will become victory. If I were the jealous type, I'd be jealous that I too wasn't spawned from the same set of cojones. My deepest condolences Peter.. I know it must be tough, but at least he got to fight the biggest fight. A fight that many will never attempt. Your father may have suffered momentarily for the battle he waged, but because of him the war is not lost. I'm sure he would have it no other way.

[@404ErrorPage]

All the best to you and your family, Peter. Your dad was a man of conviction and integrity.

[@DeanF]

Peter, like your great Father, you are a light in a dark world. So sorry to hear of you, your families' and the entire world's loss.

[@sambking]

Some day the entire world will know and understand how great a man Irwin Schiff was. Thank you, Peter, for posting this and thank you for carrying on the same causes and spirit as your Father!

[@keithbrandson6293]

Sincere condolences Peter. After my father passed, I found a renewed desire to live in a way which honors him and his memory. I know your work of speaking truth and warning people about probable economic disaster honors deceased fathers everywhere.

[@reefuss12]

thx to you peter, your dads work and passion for the truth will be carried on.

[@ElectroPig]

I miss people who tell the truth. I wish we had more of them.

[@elvinsimon5008]

AMAZING MAN.... Thank you so much for the sharing...All my Condolences Peter...

[@GMDRecords]

They tried to make an example of Irwin not knowing his integrity would make an example of their own flaws. America needs more great men like him. My condolences to Peter and family.

[@scrm1]

Shackled behind bars for so long for simply living by his moral compass, Mr. Schiff had more freedom than most of us could ever imagine. May God soon bless you and your family with peace, Peter. And YES, it was worth it!

[@hsiaokuo1337]

My condolences Peter, your father was a brave and noble man - may him rest in peace. I know understand even more what drives you and your passion in spreading your ideas and truth - thank you, we need more people like you, together we can all change the world to the better. Peace

[@popcorn412]

Sorry for your loss Peter. So glad he was able to bestow his knowledge upon you to share with me and others. Can't thank either of you enough!

[@thndrpnts]

Sorry for your loss, Peter.

[@jefftaylor2831]

This is the best eulogy you could give your father, a brave patriot to be sure. My sincere hopes that this goes viral and his life and truth never dies. My sincerest condolences. I will never forget either of you.

[@Edgrot]

A champion and a legend has passed...... Hold your head with pride Peter!

[@davidgcavada]

I never saw this amazing footage before. Irwin schiff really had the crowd on their feet. Sorry to hear your loss, Peter. May his legacy live forever.

[@preppersbroadcastcha]

Prayers for you and your family! So sorry for your loss Peter!

[@FUteehee]

Such a great man. I see why you are who you are. I'm sorry for your loss. My father was also born in 1928 and he too, fought injustice. I think he is very proud of you.

[@wilhelmstudensteckjr]

I hope someday we can erect a memorial to your father for paving the way for liberty in this country. In SOLID GOLD

[@itsaboutjesus2012]

A true American! A man of God just like the founding fathers of United States. I believe his "blood" and his sacrifice WILL yield fruits. Thx for sharing, Peter; and thank you Peter for all that you have been doing. Please don't back down, there is a group of righteous dreamers is waking up ..... they will show their faces real soon, especially as our economy literally is running out of road for cans to be kicked

[@julioequinones]

I accompany in your sentiment. +PeterShiff. A true hero and a patriot the likes of which this country has not seen since the founding fathers has left us and will be forever celebrated. #allflagsathalfmast

[@benlaing4701]

Peter- I want to send my condolences to you and your family. Amongst my peers (age 30) we bring up your father a lot when politics is being discussed. His videos are that of a true american spirit and he always preached with a great sense of humor and conviction. It is very disappointing that i did not hear about his passing on any mainstream news. Glad to see that you are carrying the message along. Between listening to you and him over the years I have turned my business and outlook totally around, an education that i got for free and that i could not have paid 79k a year for at Sarah Lawrence college.

[@AsintheDaysofNoah]

What a shame. He was penalized for speaking truth. Look how far we have fallen since he spoke out. Our sincere condolences

[@ds4081]

Thanks for posting this! Your father was a true American Hero. RIP Irwin, now you can experience true freedom. My condolences Peter, I too have lost my father, it is a hard thing to go through.

[@goldsmithstudent]

Your father was a true American and a hero. He is part of me waking up and will be missed. RIP Mr. Schiff

God bless you and your family. My prayers for all of you and to your father, who we shall all miss.

[@francisguarderas]

Deeply sorry for your loss, Peter. Great men are those who have the courage to stand by their principles. You can tell the size of man by his circle of concerns, thanks for everything you both have done, it means the world to me and millions around the world.

[@lesterfreeman3713]

Mr. Peter Schiff please accept my condolences. I have heard you speak of your father in interviews and I was saddened to hear of his passing. The old saying stands true the Apple does not fall far from the tree. I have been listening to you since 2013 and others who are sounding the alarm since like you and father. You are true patriots and I hope you continue your fathers struggle. I hope you and your family are doing well at this difficult time. God rest his soul, God bless you all.

[@notinfoilplease]

Peter...I am sorry to hear about the loss of your father.

[@printingandgraphicsinatlan9065]

Peter, my heart and dearest condolences go out to you and your brother and extended families. I'm here in Georgia, I've been a follower of you for over 5 years, I donated to your campaign when you ran for Senate in Connecticut. You, you brother and especially your Dad are all heros in my book. Many "talk the talk", but few can "walk the walk". Your dad was one who sacrificed his freedom to show us all that our government is flat out evil and who would handcuff us all if they thought for a minute that they could. Keep up the fight and we'll be doing the same out here. I for one will always have Irwin and others who've given their all on my mind as we push back those that are trying to destroy the greatest country on earth. God Bless you and yours Peter. Irwin will not be forgotten, rather fuel for the fire of FREEDOM, LIBERTY & JUSTICE!

[@heydadd]

Our deepest sympathy to you. Your dad was a courageous man.

[@Bobster986]

My sincere sympathy regarding your dad's passing, he was a man that help open many Americans eyes to the truth of the grand illusion. He be proud to see you follow his courageous path.
