Judging by the way you shake hands, it's no wonder you don't know thing one about libertarianism.

I do have a rather firm handshake.
Limp-wristed handshakes give me the heebie-jeebies.

Considering this article, I am reminded om my post a few years ago. Yes I know the CAQ is a leftie rag. But the methods written about in the post have been and are being used
against the right. Read an weep. See link below.

Many of us here will be calling the Colorado Libertarians far worse they cost the Republicans control of the Senate.

Maybe if the Republicans were really for the Bill of Rights, instead of RINOs, the Republicans would have maintained control of the Senate.

Just curious, did they have a file on the Colorado gun grabbers like the MMM?

Of course not. Even though there were two incidents of assault at gun rights protests, and both incidents were gun-grabbers assaulting gun-rights men, the Denver Police trained their cameras on the TRT, the LP and other gun-rights protestors. I'm sure they have my fat a** on videotape somewhere...

Maybe the good people of Denver have seen the Salon Bolsheviki ideologues spout off with this sort of nonsense:

Go suck eggs, C.J. - I was there. I was videotaped at gun-rights protests in Denver, even though the only two criminal incidents at protests were gun-grabbers assaulting gun-rights protestors. And the TRT was into the protest scene big-time - they have a fife-and-drum corps and get people out on the streets in a big way to help protect 2nd Amendment Rights. Do you ever get out and protest, C.J.? Or are you content to stay behind your keyboard?

Here's the kind of garbage Claire Wolfe writes: "America is at that awkward stage. It's too late to work within the system, but too early to shoot the bastards."

I fail to see any great difference which ideologue penned it. The advocacy of political murder, or the lauding of its advocacy, should not be tolerated, regardless of whether the name is Che or Claire.

Patrick Henry differed with you. So does Thomas Jefferson. I believe Thomas Paine did as well. John Adams felt differently as well.

Yeah, we can't let the facts get in the way of our opinions, eh?

Yeah, and Cultural Jihad managed to mis-attribute that quote to Che instead of Claire. That's the entire point.

Well, "militia" is not a very good term, as it implies some degree of organization.

But it's a whole lot more polite than an accurate description of the Colorado LP would have been.

The Colorado LP is a group of clowns and nut-jobs.

For proof, look no further than their candidate for U.S. Senate: Rick Stanley, who is both clown and nut-job.

""Is this the quality of the law enforcement in Denver? Is Barney Fife running the shop?" "

Um, no, Barney still has his boolet.

That quote has been around a while and I tend to agree. Need more of the "Contract with America" republicans.

And it grows more loathsome every time it's repeated.

Isn't that the purpose of the second amendment? Is power resting in the hands of the people abhorrent to you?

So that vile half-wits like Claire Wolfe can advocate murdering those she disagrees with? I think not.

"To suppose arms in the hands of citizens, to be used at individual discretion, except in private self-defense, or by partial orders of towns, countries or districts of a state, is to demolish every constitution, and lay the laws prostrate, so that liberty can be enjoyed by no man; it is a dissolution of the government. The fundamental law of the militia is, that it be created, directed and commanded by the laws, and ever for the support of the laws."
-- John Adams
