The Libertarian concept of self defense is quite different than that of most conservatives.

I'm still laughing over Ron Paul's insistence on employing Letters of Marque and Reprisal in Afghanistan instead of the US Air Force.

Your concept of 'conservative' thnking on self defense is quite different than that of most rational people.

To be honest, being something of a libertarian myself, I have encountered quite a bit of difference of opinion on various topics within the libertarian "movement". Abortion is one of them, perhaps the main one that generates disagreement. I also have noted alot of libertarians who take more of the Objectivist view, which is quite a bit more "militant" when it comes to matters of national defense.
