    Well that's good because I am AGAINST rape.

    what if it's consensual?

    I'm hearing the first 6 inches were consensual ...

    I realize my audience here, but legalized prostitution is pretty sleazy. Where exactly do you draw the line in terms of legalizing non violent crimes?

    They don't draw lines. HTH. Utility and the morality of the market. It's probable they would legalize murder if it led to a drop in the national murder rate. If they presented stats that suggested that might be the case, their leader might say, "On balance the costs to society are much higher with prohibition."
    hyperbole much?

    Conservatives and liberals are two sides of the same coin.. Liberals are all about pro choice..unless it's choosing to do something they disagree with. Conservatives are all about having the government out of our lives, expect for things they want to control. Fucking hypocrites.

    This poast needs to be pinned on this shitty bored. Seriously, bravo.

    I doubt you're that radical. But it's entertaining to throw some rotten bait out every now and then and see if you'll bite. Fire Marshal Bill asked a good question. Where exactly do you draw the line in your campaign of legalizing everything? Do you even have lines where any sense of morality comes into play and wars with your libertarian ideals?

    Jesus. Seriously. Do you even do cursory research? . Libertarianism isn't a free for all. If person A 's actions violate the rights of Person B, then person A has no right to commit that action. I think being murdered falls into the violations of rights category.

    Great, concise description of your political philosophy. Almost makes me want to not be a progressive anymore.

    I know you think you're a bad ass. But before you drop your mic prematurely, maybe you should explain why you think the German legalization of prostitution has been a success, if you think that it has.
