To those whose only evident core principle is "freedom from government,"

Those people are called "conservatives", and this is a site that is designed to cater to them. If your core principle is opposed to freedom from government, you might try a more congenial forum.

The libertarians here are a loud-mouthed bunch, to be sure, but not even close to the majority of posters on this forum. Case in point: Terri Schiavo. There were a bunch of very angry libertarian types demanding that she be killed ASAP. But FreeRepublic polls showed that they were a relatively small group.

On this issue--and the many others that deal with cultural decline and protecting our kids from cultural corruption--the libertarians are a minority within the conservative movement. Happened to hear Laura Ingraham on the FCC/porn subject just today, and what she said reflects the views of most conservatives.

Needless to say, she didn't agree with the porn fans "freedom lovers" on this site.
