“I know its tough for you libertarians — much like your foreign policy kindred spirits, liberals — to place a moral judgment on anything”
We place a very high moral judgement on liberty, and a very low moral judgement on those who deny liberty, as guarenteed in the Constitution. ( You do remember that inconvenient little document?)
I was wondering if a libertarian would show his face here.
So tell me. You support what your boy Ron Paul is saying? That Islam is not the enemy?
Which liberty is that?
You mean Liberty like the 10th Amendment in regards to the states and citizen’s right to determine things like zoning laws? The land this is being built on is technically the property of the city, all land in Manhattan is owned by the Port Authority and given long term leases to the builders.
No one is denying the right to practice religion, they are simply asserting 10th Amendment rights when it comes down to zoning in their communities? Or do you think the Feds should tell NYC that they have to allow the mosque wherever the builders want to put it?
Liberty is not a moral end. It’s the means to the moral end.
Libertarians always forget this and worship the means as the end.
