This is the Libertarian Problem in a nutshell.

So are you leading me to believe that you would be a Libertarian if we could just get rid of all these tacky people? You agree with libertarian philosophy of governance, it's just that you don't like the people? That's rich.

No. I disagree with Libertarians on several issues, mostly having to do with the balance of individual rights against those of the community. I also recognize that the LP philosophy does not correspond to things as they are in the real world, especially in the realm of diplomacy and national defense.

Libertarian personalities simply make it easier for me to dislike the LP.

As for other people who are less predisposed to the basic libertarian concepts than I am, they will not even listen to people as unpleasant as you guys tend to be.
