oh wait---this is fun. I just came across a post of yours I hadn't seen earlier when you responded to a post of mine where i said "I was a conservative leaning libertarian" by saying: quote:
You wouldn't know a Libertarian if one bit you on the ass. smug pompous ass and your whole premise, as highlighted above, (apparently since you didn't actually articulate anything) was that since im "pro-life" apparently im not libertarian, because you know, that takes away the "choice" of the mother to kill her baby. because of course the baby has no right to liberty. %(*@&%& idiot. Libertarians for Life - Official Site Libertarian and Pro-Life Too Libertarians for Life quote:
Opposition to legal abortion[edit] The anti-abortion libertarian group Libertarians for Life argues that humans in the zygotic, embryonic, and fetal stages of development have the same rights as humans in the neonatal stage and beyond. Doris Gordon of the group notes that the principles of both the U.S. Libertarian Party and Objectivist ethics require some obligation to children and counter with an appeal to the non-aggression principle: Non-aggression is an ongoing obligation: it is never optional for anyone, even pregnant women. If the non-aggression obligation did not apply, then earning money versus stealing it and consensual sex versus rape would be morally indifferent behaviors. The obligation not to aggress is pre-political and pre-legal. It does not arise out of contract, agreement, or the law; rather, such devices presuppose this obligation. The obligation would exist even in a state of nature. This is because the obligation comes with our human nature, and we acquire this nature at conception. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libertarian_perspectives_on_abortion also, in the "libertarian" key word search, I found about 5ish years ago where you Nolan survey identified yourself as a libertarian leaning centrist.
