1. there can and should be a government with authority even over those within its jurisdiction who do not accept its authority?
Yes, I am not an anarchist. I am a localist (if anything). I want govt power (the very little that should exist) to exist locally.
2. that government could and should use force if necessary to move/remove someone masturbating in front of children?
I think that the very little govt force that should exist should exist for the sole purpose of keeping the peace. Moving a person acting inappropriately on someone else's property would be an example of keeping the peace.
3. that government could and should use force if necessary to move/remove someone masturbating in front of children, even if the pervert is on his/her own property?
If he is on his own property, then no. The children should just move on. Move him where? Remove him to where? He is on his property.
4. that government could and should use force if necessary to move/remove someone having sex with animals in front of children, even if the pervert is on his/her own property?
Same as 3. But also... what?? These are essentially non-issues. There are such larger fish to fry.
you don't think perverts masturbating or having sex with animals in front of children is any big deal and should have no criminal penalties for such "crimes"?
It is a deal only between those affected. From where I sit, I don't believe this is a big deal. Frankly, I don't believe it really exists in any significant way.
And no, I don't support criminal penalties for this behavior.
Just keep the peace.
