L. Neil Smith at The Libertarian Enterprise - Neil dissembles a nerf libertarian, a self-professed "primary instigator" of the Portland Purge. [tle]

If you're not man enough to take your libertarianism undiluted, if the movement's core ideals frighten or embarrass you, if, in that patronizing, condescending, utterly undeserved sense of superiority of yours you think the state-battered American public isn't more than ready to hear what real libertarians have to say and want to do, if you're not willing to do the hard work of getting them to listen, get out.

Now.

We were here first.

Start your own Whimpertarian Party instead of hijacking the one your betters built. See how far it gets you, competing with something real. Try holding onto the LP you've stolen and we'll embarrass you out, using nothing more than genuine libertarian ideas, positions and policies. Try explaining to the round-heeled media our insistence that a nine-year-old girl should be free to buy a machinegun, ammunition, and heroin at the general store without signing anything or presenting identification.

I promise that you'll have to.
