Gary Johnson Supports Private Anti-Discrimination Laws Protecting Gays

[TaftFan]

This confirms my suspicion that Gary is a "liberaltarian."

 

[ThePaleoLibertarian]

"Bleeding-heart libertarianism" is becoming the new strain of mainstream libertarian thought. Pro-capitalists who support egalitarianism, class struggle, feminism, critical "theory" privilege checking and all other assorted modernist nonsense. Left-libertarians are barely libertarians to begin with.

 

[William Tell]

Shit.... So is he gonna change the LP's name to the LGBTarian party?

 

[phill4paul]

If I say I'm a panda it doesn't mean I'm a panda.

The Constitution Party is a much better option for people who support liberty than the Libertarian Party. I'll take Chuck Baldwin over Gary Johnson any day.

 

[Sola_Fide]

Gary is going to Gary. He was never for freedom to begin with.

 

[jmdrake]

Sadly some here would pick Gary Johnson over Rand Paul based on this version of "libertarianism."

 

[AuH20]

What? And he actually went after Rand?

 

[torchbearer]

Gary is a utilitarian libertarian, for those people who don't know much about him. He did not arrive at liberty through philosophy and principle, such as Ron or Rand, he arrived at his position because he could see its utility. there is a danger in that kind of philosophy.
this type of policy is an example.

Rand will look like a libertarian wet dream if libertarians really looked at Gary's many speeches.

 

[Christian Liberty]

I can't believe I actually supported this guy back in 2012. The LP is just another establishment facade. We need an actual liberty minded party.

 

[fr33]

Ugh. I don't like him. I wish the LP would do better. But I can't say that if it's Bush vs Clinton that I wouldn't vote for him. It's not like a vote for him accomplishes anything other than protest.

Do people pay him to speak? I could never imagine paying to see him speak.

 

[The Gold Standard]

I voted for him in 2012, but don't think too much into it. I would have voted for Vermin Supreme if he was on my ballot. Anyone but R or D. The whole voting charade is a joke anyway.

 

[muh_roads]

The gays are coming, the gays are coming...

Gary is a good guy. Don't we have bigger fish to fry?

 

[euphemia]

It's not an inalienable right when the government has to force people to do it.

There's not very much that's more important than preserving religious liberty.

I don't believe in religious neutrality, and Gary is not just treating the rights of Christians as being equal to other groups, he is actively undermining them in an effort to appease the homo-fascists. I don't even know that he's better than your average Republican after that... this is a massive issue, as is abortion where he's "pro-choice."

Bush v Clinton v Gary I'd write someone in, vote Constitution Party, or stay home. No way I'd vote for someone who believed this. If the LP believes in liberty at all they should kick him out.

Good thing Ron Paul is still around to combat this scourge.

Yeah, I would never vote for someone who doesn't believe in something as basic as religious liberty. Gary Johnson is far less libertarian than someone like Rand Paul.

 

[William Tell]

Yeah, but this is ultimately about property rights. Even if we forget about the religious aspect, Gary wants the government to dictate what businesses do.

It's about property rights, freedom of association, and religious liberty. Gary Johnson opposes all three of those principles.
