As has been pointed out, what this idiot did should be considered an assault.
What has also been pointed out, time and again, is that Libertarians feel that the ONLY function legitamate government serves is to protect equal Rights from violation. Such as the assault commited in the article.
Some of you Bushbots just can't stand the idea that the LP espouses policies that would protect more of an individuals freedom over their own lives than you would allow them to have.
This candidates behavior was reprehensible. Charge him and try him in court. Kick him off the ballot and replace him with someone who can keep his sh!t wired right.
Precisely the same. Want some more names of wackos in the Republicrat party?
If you are trying to prove guilt by association, you can't pick and choose. Other wise I can link you with CJ, Kevvie boy ,Dane ,Roscoe and all of the Hitler youth on this thread. You embrace these wackos?
Honestly, from some of the language on this thread, I'm suprised it hasn't gotten pulled yet. Collective emotional IQ, judging from the invictive alone, appears to be reaching a pre-pubecent stage.
The problem, DC, is that the basic childishness behind Copeland's action is typical behavior for Libertarian candidates.
And as has been pointed out -- this dumbass is the LP candidate for Governor! (Here in Colorado, the LP has an even bigger idiot running for U.S. Senate....)

Case in point: If everybody would just....
David Duke is a typical Republican.
Sighs. Rolls eyes.
If I didn't know better I'd think you were a Libertarian candidate for something....
I dont, at least not until we get rid of all socialistic programs in America, and stop using our military to police the world.
That's what liberals and other morons do when caught in a lie. Broad brushes work both ways.
Liar. I've worked with a couple of the LP candidates here in Austin. How about the Second Amendment stance of that guy up in Colorado? Any of Ron Pauls stances? Your argument is sinking fast. Or is advocacy of our Rights now considered childish?
Case in point: If everybody would just....
No. Gods do I get tired of trying to explain this to you guys. "If government would just..." is the point. If the government would just stay within its Constitutional boundries. How does that sound? How un-Republican is that? Everything I have heard from you 'Bots is that we need more, and more powerful, government. How much MORE freedom do we need to give up until you guys are satisfied? All of it?
Rick Stanley has probably done more to damage RKBA than any other person in the state. The guy has demonstrated himself to be a complete and utter fool.
Any of Ron Pauls stances?
Ron Paul is a Republican.
Your argument is sinking fast. Or is advocacy of our Rights now considered childish?
When libertarians act like Copeland or Stanley, any stand they take granted the same respect as those put forth by Lyndon LaRouche. By fielding slates of fools, the LP probably does far more harm than good.
As for the rest, I simply point out that your underlying assumptions are childish.
When David Duke runs for Governor of California, let me know. As it is, to run as a Republican in California you must sign a spinal column waiver....
Thanks for the advice. Now here's some for you, don't lay down with dogs, you will get up with fleas.
p.s., When David Duke spits in an interviewer's face, let me know....
I fixed it for you.
