Go and get yourself Tails. For a mac you're better off using a bootable CD, a live USB is pretty difficult. It may seem like a lot of work (its not) and it comes down to your safety in the end. Mac's are ready out of the box to boot from a CD so you don't have to do anything fiddly.
You can find all you need at tails.boum.org. Make sure you follow all the instructions and keep yourself safe. I'll help you through it if you want, just let me know.

just use GnuPG
to install, run these commands in order from a terminal window (copy and paste if you'd like)
cd ~/
mkdir gnupg
cd gnupg
curl -o ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/gnupg/gnupg-1.4.14.tar.gz
tar -xzf gnupg-1.4.14.tar.gz
cd gnupg-1.4.14
./configure
make
make check
sudo make install
after it installs just use the command gpg to use it

It's your Mac's login password, if you don't have one try leaving it blank.
