Libertarianism is one of the current hot topics in GD. Just scan the topic titles: - Gestalt, the Libertarian Angle - Libertarians and the Noncoercion Principle - What’s with the Libertarians? - Okay for Non-Libertarians… - God is: a libertarian?.. - Libertarian Perception of Pointy Sticks - Anal Warts and the Libertarian - The Libertarian’s Position on Even-Toed Ungulates And anyone who has spent more that 3 nanoseconds reading GD knows that Libertarian looooves “peaceful honest people”. Want proof? He mentions them [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/ubb/Forum7/HTML/001348.html) and [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/ubb/Forum7/HTML/001345.html) and [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/ubb/Forum7/HTML/001342.html) and [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/ubb/Forum7/HTML/001224.html) and [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/ubb/Forum7/HTML/001230.html) and [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/ubb/Forum7/HTML/001235.html) and [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/ubb/Forum7/HTML/001187.html). Well you know what? Honest peaceful people **suck ass**! Yeah, you heard me! Fuck 'em. You think honesty is good? Try telling your girlfriend that yes, that dress does make her look fat as a whale. Try telling your boyfriend that yes, he is _horrible_ in bed and that you deserve the Academy Award for Best Portrayal of A Sexually Satisfied Woman. Honesty is over-rated. And don’t get me started on peaceful. The only think I like about peaceful people is that their easy to knock down and steal their wallet from. Other than that these spinless twits are nothing but a pox. They make bands like Hootie and the Blowfish popular. They watch shows like “7th Heaven”. They think David Schwimmer is the sexiest man alive. Lying twisted ass-kicking people are the only people that matter. So nyaaaahh. * * * **Gypsy** : Tom, I don’t get you. **Tom Servo** : Nobody does. I’m the wind, baby. ---

But you’re ignoring the most important point–“Libertarian and the Peaceful Honest People” would be a great name for a band.

Trouble is, he doesn’t actually debate, he just repeats libertarian dogma. Sadly, and as much as I respect him, I have to agree. Then again, people could say the same thing about me and queer issues.

Anything before noon is “early morning,” and anything before 3:30 p.m. is “late morning.” Surgoshan wrote: > [@](#): > > Morning people are just afternoon people in the wrong time zone.

> [@](#): > > Try telling your girlfriend that yes, that dress does make her look fat as a whale. Try telling your boyfriend that yes, he is horrible in bed and that you deserve the Academy Award for Best Portrayal of A Sexually Satisfied Woman. Honesty is over-rated honesty isnt about being rude, so you can drop that as an excuse. “im just being honest” is a typical saying among rude people. > [@](#): > > And don’t get me started on peaceful. The only think I like about peaceful people is that their easy to knock down and steal their wallet from now thats mean…you like being a mean person? i guess you do since you seem to be rude as well. what else do you have to fill up your six-pack? being peaceful isnt the same as being a wussy! true that everything can be made a bit to much, but in my opinion, there is much more rudeness that there is of honesty…and there is much more brutality then there is of peacefulness…so shove off and leave us alone who dont want to be bothered by rude and brutal people. bj0rn - did i mention selfish? ---
