Blind to his own bigotry, he smeared the Boy Scouts. Typical LPer.

Blind to his own bigotry

Had he not come to the defense of the Scouts, that would have been true.

Rather, he saw through his own bigotry in principled defense of rights. I'd say his action speaks louder than his words.

Could you explain why he'd do such a thing? I mean we're always supposed to be promoting vice. Why did libertarians oppose gays in this case?

BTW, care to take a crack at the point raised in post #13? We don't seem to have any takers yet. Maybe you'd like to give it a shot?

"Even bigots have rights," said [Santa Barbara LP Secretary Robert Bakhaus].

Ironic statement.

More than you realise.
He means even you.

Blind to his own bigotry, he smeared the Boy Scouts. Typical LPer.

Not at all, -- in context, his remark is a general comment on the right to free association, --- to be 'bigoted' in a flipant sense.

Your own bigotry to libertarians is evident. - And your hypocrisy.
