The Libertarian Republic ^ | 5/7/14 | Austin Petersen

SALEM, OR – An incident is being investigated where a police officer in Oregon was harassing a man who was sitting down reading a book at a local transit mall. The officer grabs the man’s skateboard, throws it and tells him to put his hands behind his back. The man stands up and begins to walk away, pulling out his cell phone to make a call, causing the officer to deploy the taser in the man’s back. At the moment there has been no information from the local police released as to the motive for the officer’s attack on the citizen.

Well, yeah...blog pimps care tiresome. But you’re either going to have to learn to play nice with libertarians or be ready to welcome president hillary into the white house in 2016.

Really? My choice is vote for Rand Paul or else Hillary wins?

You are delusional. I’d rather support a RINO than a lib.

Good for you! How did that work out for you in 2012? How about 2008?

Worked out pretty much the same. Socially liberal candidates got in the way of true conservatives and the democrat won.

But that’s what libertarians do.

Make up your mind. Are libertarians a bunch of unappeasable 1 percenters or the game-changing power group that keeps foiling your efforts?

But whatever you do, don’t blame the lousy candidates you carry water for every 4 years or systematically driving away as many segments of your party as you can that aren’t just like you.

Doing any non-government employee approved activity, especially READING (mark of a thinking person) is Verbotten.

It’s not right for Peasants to read. Soon they start getting ideas and thinking....
