You're taking a very simplified view of a philosophy that simply puts individual rights above collective rights. I simply believe in empowering the individual and believe in a simple concept of live and left live This can be summed up in the NAP.

It's laughable to say Libertarians stand for nothing when they stand for the natural and inalienable rights of the individual above all else and believe that those rights should not be ceded to the state. I'd say that is standing up for plenty. I strongly suggest that you read some of Locke and Hobbes. You may have a better idea of where I cam coming from there.

I think I've also made it clear that I deplore violence. I'm decidedly anti-war and anti-violence except as a last resort. Do I think we need to violently resist the current state in America? No. Do I think we will get to that point in my lifetime? Doubtful. With that said, the fact that it remains a possibility is enough to justify a population of armed civilians being maintained as a bulwark in the event an unlikely situation occurs. Our founding fathers certainly probably had faith their Constitution would hold up, but even then they also knew nothing is guaranteed and that one day the government they set up could become too powerful, just as the prior monarchs had. It is for that reason we have our 2nd Amendment.

Having known SpiralStairs personally, I can say without reservation that any child of his would be much better off being raised by a sexually deviant recluse.

To the debate on Libertarianism, I find most of my Libertarian friends and family to be insufferable, but they are an absolute necessity in America. They keep people honest and remind us frequently (like literally every five minutes) of the evils of big government.

I kid, but I'm serious (about both Libertarianism and Spiral being a horrible parent).

These cops are full of shit..they did an awful job.

No shock, look at the type of people we allow to be cops.
