I sincerely hope this is not supposed to be an accurate representation of Libertarians.

Folks who are way too much like that are why a lot of folks *won't* call themselves libertarians.

Yes, very true.

I'm a registered Libertarian, and I fully recognize and appreciate the need for roads, police and fire departments, infrastructure, public parks, public beaches, public education, et al.

The Teabaggers don't seem to quite grasp that concept, and when we see them demonstrating against taxes while standing on public land that's maintained by the very taxes they claim to want abolished? Rage-inducing.

The makers of the video overlook the Islamic Courts Union which did give the south of Somalia some law and order for over a decade of the time they claim it was was without, and is something like the voluntary participation legal systems in some Libertarian literature, though it being Sharia law and order rather ruins it.

One of them's nonwhite, so obviously not.

Racism as trollbait is SO 2008.

I'm looking forward to hating on white people a whole lot more in 2012.
