Wait a minute, have I been bamboozled by the Libertarian party? I thought it was about personal choice.

And for the pro-choicers... I thought it was about PRIVACY and CHOICE. Now I find out it’s about killing what others see as not fit for living.

Sounds awful brownshirt to me.

It's not ‘the’ Libertarian Party.

But ‘a libertarian group’.

The title should have been ‘A’ libertarian Group.

Doesn’t sound very libertarian to me. Sounds like brownshirt type crap to me. Small-l libertarians are about choice, not forcing choices on others, so I think this group is libertarian in name only. More like neo-N**i, master race doesn’t need cripples, and all that.

You can add the feminists to that group of mentally challenged subhumans.

“Wait a minute, have I been bamboozled by the Libertarian party? I thought it was about personal choice.”

Anyone can call themselves a libertarian. In much the same way that anyone can call themselves Catholic. Doesn’t mean that they represent the party, the philosophy, or anything else.

One of the most compelling philosophical arguments for life is espoused by libertarians. In my own case, it wasn’t the religious argument that swung me. I was pro-creation before I became a Christian. Check out “libertarians for life” for example.

It was discovering the pro-choice plank of the Libertarian Party that made me realize that they are not a healthy addition to the American debate. "Pro-choice" is simply a term applied as window-dressing.

It means "pro-death." Folks can argue all they want with that, but the fact is that pro-choice = pro-abortion = pro-death.

And it puts the lie to the very "liberty" that underlies the first part of the "liber"tarian name. They don't believe in liberty. How can they possibly believe that denying any innocent person the Right to LIVE is pro-liberty? What the hell difference does liberty make if someone is permitted to MURDER you?

They simply aren't "Liber"Tarian. They are "Death"otarians....NecroTarians.
