Free speech is freedom to speak as well as freedom NOT to - DHighlander NWMSU - 3/1 09:45:51

He makes several very good points - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 3/1 09:22:24

The points are good. The application of it is where he - ummmm MU - 3/1 09:54:29

As I have stated before, there are many things I admire - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 3/1 09:58:21

libertarians don't abdicate morality, 4Tigs. It's your - 90Tiger STL - 3/1 14:21:29

all morals are subjective - meatiger MU - 3/1 10:00:54

Each person has their own subjective moral code. That is - ummmm MU - 3/1 10:02:24

Development? I thought that Natural Law was inherent in us? - DHighlander NWMSU - 3/1 10:37:19

You're confusing natural law with natural rights. (nm) - kmawv8 MU - 3/1 10:46:20

Look at the poll last week - meatiger MU - 3/1 10:43:23

What does that have to do with anything? Just because we - DHighlander NWMSU - 3/1 11:00:44

the reasons weren't all that different - SwampTiger MU - 3/1 11:05:30

low IQ = poor reading comprehension (nm) - ashtray UF - 3/1 10:42:00

So as I have said before, libertarianism is at its core - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 3/1 10:10:42

lol, no (nm) - 90Tiger STL - 3/1 14:22:33

Not one libertarian here has ever told you that - pickle MU

What do you mean by "abdication of any objective moral - ummmm MU - 3/1 10:00:39

I will use the example I used here when asking a relatively - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 3/1 10:07:37

how do you apply it to the "civil realm" - SwampTiger MU - 3/1 10:11:00

I admit that is where it becomes very very difficult - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 3/1 10:13:45

well then, it seems your point moot (nm) - SwampTiger MU - 3/1 10:55:53

RE: No following - SwampTiger MU - 3/1 11:11:38

Are you referring to the age question?(nm) - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 3/1 11:15:33

yes (nm) - SwampTiger MU - 3/1 11:17:45

Well, the reason I could not answer their question is that - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 3/1 11:41:26

So rather than addressing the point - meatiger MU - 3/1 11:49:43

It wasn't a gotcha question - it was a total lay up - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 3/1 11:52:47

It was a dumb question that does not even address any point - meatiger MU - 3/1 12:14:18

It proved clearly my issue with the lack of morality in too - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 3/1 12:25:57

Did anyone say it would be ok?(nm) - meatiger MU - 3/1 14:06:50

No, but you and others were paralyzed to the point you - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 3/1 14:38:05

They fall apart - meatiger MU - 3/1 10:18:06

I never claimed I did not have a line. And I never said your - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 3/1 10:44:44

You admit above you don't knw the exact line - meatiger MU - 3/1 11:30:24

If you don't believe it wrong for an adult man to have sex - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 3/1 11:42:07

So how would you write the law - meatiger MU - 3/1 11:47:36

I would allow states to make their determinations as they - 4TigersinMichigan MU - 3/1 11:50:29

so 12 is your cutoff line - ashtray UF - 3/1 12:26:10

I think that was a very good point. - dangertim MU
