No, I don’t know that libertarianism is pro abortion. As a conservative with libertarian leanings, I can tell you that I believe the libertarian non-initiation of force principle applies to unborn people. I would guess that most of the libertarians around here agree with this.

Nice way to couch what you are hiding.

Libertarianism is pro-abortion, and you should know that before promoting it, and I think you do, it is also pro-gay marriage, pro-gays in the military, and much much more.

Actually, the libertarian argument against infanticide is one of the better philosophical arguments out there if you’re not going to come at it from the point of view of religion. Not everyone believes in God. Sad, but it is what it is.

Responsibility and freedom go hand in hand. There is plenty to disagree with when it comes to libertarian philosophy (I’m not a libertarian but am sympathetic to some of their views), but their argument against infanticide is one of the better ones. It’s a shame it’s not better known.
