Libertarians and libertarians aren't happy here . . .

I've noticed Libertarians and libertarians are rarely happy PERIOD. Drowing in a sea of abudance, blessed (through no efforts of their own) with the greatest measure of meaningful freedom that any nation has enjoyed in the history of mankind, they carp and complain about being "denied" the right to engage in destructive behavior that they profess to have no desire to ever engage in.

Well put, Kevin.

What they need is a cold shower ( deluge, rather ) of historical fact ! They imagine that people were " more free " 200 years ago. That wasn't the case at all. Not only were there much more severe FEDERAL laws against behaviors, there were state, local, and community laws, which were stridently against everything they claim to want LEGALIZED now, because it once was. LOL
