This is one of those Libertarian "baby food" examples. If a baby food company started putting ground glass in their baby food, conservatives would want to shut them down. Libertarians would just demand they put a label on the jar.

Note to libertarians: This is a figurative example, not a literal one.

This is a figurative example....

And an extremely poor one.

And that would fail to suffice how?

No, they'd just want "silica" listed as one of the ingredients. ;)

If you find yourself explaining to an adult why pornography is bad, you've already lost the argument.

Or, let's say, it's an argument you'll never win.
