| Subject: Via Anarcho-Capitalists' Forum: Libertarians stand with the oppressed Fri Dec 19, 2014 3:57 am | |
| From Ferguson, to New York, to Guantanamo Bay, we have witnessed systematic brutality, oppression, and murder by our government. We have also witnessed the complete unwillingness of the government to hold itself accountable. Defenders of big government have, predictably, stepped forward to criticize, not the horrific acts of our government, but efforts to bring wrongdoing to light. These acts of brutality, and lack of accountability, are the result of far too many years of two-party rule. The recent torture report, for example, revealed a program of torture carried out by Republicans, but a Democratic administration attempted to delay its revelation and indicated that it will not seek any prosecutions. The Libertarian Party stands with the oppressed, speaks for those whom society cannot hear, and offers hope for those who have given up any belief that the world can improve. A vote for a Libertarian is a vote against allowing the murderer of Eric Garner to go free, a vote against the warfare state, and a vote against torture. Wherever a person is brutalized or killed by government, we are with them. Wherever people protest against unjust institutions and systematic racism, we are with them.
