They do not believe that the state should ever have the power to take human life. I'm a libertarian. I know lots of other libertarians. We're all for the death penalty
The biggest main legitimate purpose of government is to deal with violent crime. As such, it needs the power to imprison and execute.

I understand your position. My point was just that among libertarians there are diverse viewpoints on issues such as the death penalty, abortion, immigration, etc.
