Libertarians are just leftists that want to own guns and do drugs. Fight me.

Exactly. You’ve just described every Libertarian friend of mine. Literally the worst, most selfish political movement.Originally Posted by Casual Friday
Libertarians are to the right what communists are to the left.
Change my mind
Welcome to Africa, bring a hardhat.
They wrecked the 2013 Virginia gubernatorial election by running a left-wing shill and plant, and the smug and selfish Lolberts voted for him in lieu of the pro-gun, pro-law & order Republican on the ballot, handing the reigns of the state over to the Democrats.

I wasn't really considering a vote for her, but my wife is a strong supporter of JoJo, and I find myself agreeingwith many principles libertarians promote, so I had been reading up about her... then she posted the BLM crap, and I came to a full stop.
When I pointed this most recent baloney statement out to my wife, I basically got "Orange man bad, and Biden is dementia addled idiot! Our choices suck!"... So I guess she still isn't on the Trump Train.
She is right though, our available choices for president (and most other races) are total shit. I dont really love Trump (for many reasons), but he is a damn sight better than any of the other candidates... so here we are.
I had a business acquaintance a couple years ago who I became kinda friends with. He was a Lolbert but he didn't go around screaming "TAXATION IS THEFT, END THE FED" in response to literally everything. He was quite intelligent and could actually discuss the policies of the Lolbert party. One day we were talking about a somewhat prominent local guy who had just got caught with child porn. After the initial "Wow it's hard to believe, he was so successful, he had a family, blah blah blah" talk, his take was that possession of child porn shouldn't be illegal unless you're the one filming/photographing the child, because they're just pictures and the person in possession didn't assault them. I told him that was about the stupidest fucking thing I'd ever heard and we ceased being friends right there. It didn't cause me to believe he was a CHOMO with kiddie porn at home, but it showed just how far out in looney land many of the Lolberts have taken the NAP.
It was no great loss, I hadn't known him long.
I think it's unfortunate that most of the terms such as liberal, libertarian, Republican, Democrat, socialist etc no longer have any demonstrable meaning as they have been bandied about for years willy-nilly by members of the media and public. They are used more as epithets and pejoratives than a means of describing what someone's actual political / economic philosophy may be.
Nowadays I just pretty much hate all of 'em.
@Casual Friday, you chose well to cut ties with that numbskull. My agency had a group involved in investigating child porn on a variety of levels, online and off, and it took a toll on those agents.
There's nothing civil about this war.
and not pay obscene taxes to a government enforcing every shifting standards of rightthink...
Found the lefty that just wants to own guns and do drugs.
Oh, and it's not just neckbeard lolberts that hate taxes.
Condemning instances of violence and looting, Jorgensen doubles down on her support of BLM protests:
"We need change, and I'm glad [the protests] are getting the attention."
"I think we should support the protesters, but, at the same time, get rid of the opportunistic people hijacking the movement. They are going around basically inserting themselves into peaceful protest."
Jorgensen says that the Libertarian Party agrees with the national Black Lives Matter organization on several issues, such as the drug war, no-knock raids, and qualified immunity.
Regarding covid19:
"We're all adults, and it shouldn't be against the law to be stupid."
"We still have (business) entities who are requiring us to wear masks. We don't have to wait until the government tells us to. But this way, we have choice."
Jorgensen also notes the variety of ways the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and other federal agencies have restricted access to mass testing.
Regarding vote by mail:
"It's fine with me if we have mail-in votes, as long as we do it through FedEx."
