Building a Border Fence is not Libertarian

[Feenix566]

Just thought you guys should know that. Building a fence is an authoritarian proposal. That is all.

what if its on your property?
a fence indicates a change in sovereignty, that is all.
Same for your property as it is for the extent of our constitution.

Private land ownership is a libertarian idea. State land ownership is an authoritarian idea.

 

[torchbearer]

Private land ownership is a libertarian idea. State land ownership is an authoritarian idea.

sovereignty is a property right thing.

 

[Truth Warrior]

And the current USA is not libertarian either.

I agree.

The border fence is a terrible idea.

 

[Feenix566]

And the current USA is not libertarian either.

I didn't say it was.

I agree.

The border fence is a terrible idea.

I didn't say that.

 

[brandon]

I didn't say that.

I said it. That's why it says 'brandonyates' above it.

 

[Dr.3D]

Yeah, a true libertarian doesn't have locks on his doors either.

 

[robskicks]

i think the fences are to keep us in

 

[Feenix566]

I said it. That's why it says 'brandonyates' above it.

I just didn't want to give anyone an excuse to hijack the thread by equating my statement of fact that it's an authoritarian proposal with a statement of opinion that it's a terrible idea. Those two statements are different. I just want to see if everyone can agree with the first one, without delving into the second.

 

[Feenix566]

Yeah, a true libertarian doesn't have locks on his doors either.

Protecting one's private property rights is a very libertarian thing to do.

 

[brandon]

Yeah, a true libertarian doesn't have locks on his doors either.

If you put a lock on your door the government doesn't send the military to your house, demanding to see identification everytime you pass through the door.

Big difference.

I am so done with these damn labels. Who cares what is republican, libertarian or democratic? They are ALL bullshit when it comes down to it because NO ONE in any of these so called parties actually stands and votes for the true intent of the party.

A fence is NOT needed IF we change the policy and stop fucking handing out free money and jobs to illegals. If there is no incentive then guess what, they will stay put. Hell if mexico offered better living then here we might just start running across the border as well.

 

[Truth Warrior]

I didn't say it was.

Did I say, that you said it was?

NO!

 

[Feenix566]

Did I say, that you said it was?

NO!

I didn't say you said I said it was

Oh, and just to be clear, I'm not saying you said I said you said I said it was.

 

[brandon]

I didn't say you said I said it was

Oh, and just to be clear, I'm not saying you said I said you said I said it was.

did you just say that you didn't say he said you said he said you said it was?

yeah. stop the free healthcare and schooling too.

 

[Feenix566]

did you just say that you didn't say he said you said he said you said it was?

Purple.

On this issue I am not pure Libertarian. I see the border fence like a fence around a Country Club, something the members decide to do together....to keep the caddys off the course after-hours. (I caddy'ed my way through College) (I'm a looper).
