Libertarians hiding behind the skirts of states’ rights have been utterly exposed. Any time I tried to engage any of them about states rights, they either left the discussion, lied, or hedged. Only one finally admitted that yes, theoretically the states could be “allowed” to have laws curbing vice, but they shouldn’t.
The LP is the party of vice and mass illegal immigration.
BTW - I’m way way behind trying to find that quote from I think the 1980s, a libertarian advocating the legalization of child pornography. If you have it, I’d appreciate it.
Sorry, but this (L) doesn’t jive with this DoD policy. This is preferential treatment of a gov’t approved group.
Now, you want to discuss vise. Liberty and Freedom come with all SORTS of ‘problems’; quandaries, choices, vices, addiction and consequences for ones’ actions. The *HORROR*.
Do *I* have a prob. w/ laws vs. vices? HELL yeah. Like to eat? ‘Over-weight’ per the State? Vice. Like to drink? No more 6-pks says the State...vice. CAN States pass those kind of Laws? Sure, if enough people allow their Reps to do so...as much as those being over-taxed, over-regulated, etc. have the ability to MOVE to a State more of their choosing.
For quite a while I was trying to get libertarians to admit to or at least acknowledge the federal aspects of their leftist agenda, the military, immigration, federal employment and how gay marriage is also a part of all that, but they refused to even acknowledge those posts, as they stayed focused on promoting gay marriage as a state issue only.
