No time to post = no replies, in my case. This is the first I've been on since last night, and I'm not staying as I have a job that needs attending to.

For the record, I don't agree with the "L"ibertarian position that a minor can declare him/herself an adult. Either you're a minor or your not. If you want emancipation because of abuse at home, then petition to have another guardian assigned to you.
There is no point in setting up a class of persons as minors if that status can be revoked on a whim.

And on that note, back to work. I may be on later, I may not. But it's not to avoid the argument, it's because I have a LIFE!

Good for you for stepping up and saying so! The official LP position is riddled with many such "unintended consequences". Honest men and women, when they finally see them, recoil from the party platform.
