I know some anarcho-capitalist friends who are adamant that punishment should not be meted out until property rights are violated, and even then, the punishment should fit the violation.

Was wondering how the libertarians here would react to this story.

Police accidentally hit a naked man in the genitals with a Taser after he was caught breaking windows and asking women to touch him, authorities said. i dunno its pretty clear the suspect was breaking the law.. punishment is justified.

They think only the violation of property rights merits punisment?

That is bizzare. I don't think that's mainstream libertarian at all.
