"To me, it's a matter of the proper role of govt. There are things the govt should not be empowered to regulate. Small govt, and all that. Marriage, to me, is one of those. I don't care if you "marry" your goat. As long as I'm free to avoid associating with you."

That is back to the Libertarian/conservative/Republican meat of the thread.

I care about someone marrying a goat( or all the other perverted ideas) because of the government funded costs that every tax payer will share in that.

I don't want to see it, I don't want to be taxed for promoting it in the socialist/communist controlled public schools.

Until you can totally remove any and all tax payer funding (tax breaks etc) from these warped ideas, you will never sell the "live and let live" concept of Libertarianism.

That is the rub with libertarianism. Yes, you shouldn't be forced to wear a helmet while you are on your "donorcycle" as the ER doctors call them, but if you are making me help foot the bills, you sure are going to wear one if I have something to say about it.

Libertarian freedoms can only be advanced with responsibilities, there can't really be halfsies on this.

I am pro legalization for pot, but I also think every employer can make you pee in a cup if you want the job.
