As a Libertarian, do you have any problem with the father or mother of this raped child going after this guy and doing whatever they want with him?

I'm not certain why it matters that I am a libertarian, or a Libertarian for that matter.

As to the question, you need to provide more information. Like for instance,,did he do it? Right now he is accused.

My comments concern the rights we possess. Like the right to a trial. If he has none, I have none. That's problematical for me.

After that, if he is guilty, we can chat about what the penalties should be for various crimes. I have no pity on the guilty. Particularly those of heinous nature.

As a libertarian, I haven no problem with the father doing whatever he wants to this guy, up to killing him, as long as the father accepts the judment of a fully-informed jury at his own trial for murder or what have you.
