How's this for a knee-jerk libertarian response:
A libertarian was asked about sexual relations, and said that anything between or among consenting adults should be legal.
What about children?
Well, there is a question as to whether a parent or other guardian can give consent on behalf of the child for such a thing. In the state of Mississippi, it used to be legal for children as young as 14 to marry with the consent of their parents. Perhaps it still is.
What about animals?
Again there is a questions to what ownership of animals involves. Can you be cruel to animals?
What about this line of reasoning ...
A Republican, a Democrat and a Libertarian were deer hunting, when a deer came into their kill zone. A flush of embarrassment came over them, and each of them felt he had to justify why they could kill the animal.
Well, said the Republican, I have a gun. That gives me the right.
I take that as a vote in favor of us killing the deer, said the Democrat, to which I will add my vote, which makes a majority of the three of us, and that gives us the right.
The two of them then looked to the Libertarian. The deer, he said, walked into our kill zone of its own free will, thus giving us its implicit consent.
And then there's this line of reasoning ...
Why is chicken kosher for Libertarians, but not horses?
Chickens say, "cheap, cheap," while horses say "nay."
