The problem, DC, is that the basic childishness behind Copeland's action is typical behavior for Libertarian candidates.

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?

Love your screen name. It fits the Libertarian Party -- dead corpse. Eight years ago I almost considered myself a Libertarian. Had I voted in the evening and knew the 1996 election was over, I would have probably voted for Harry Browne. Their stand on open borders and refusal to use military force to defend our national interest has lost me forever.

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.
