Message | Most of the current positions are quite reasonable in our view. Dispersing crowds during an emergency can be nessecary to protect people from harm. We generally oppose internet censorship, but there are exceptions like child porn. And drugs are simply a way that people are exploited for others profit. |

Random quote: "The first step in freeing yourself from social restrictions is the realization that there is no such thing as a 'safe' code of conduct, one that would earn everyone's approval. Your actions can always be condemned by someone, for being too bold or too apathetic, for being too conformist or too nonconformist, for being too liberal or too conservative. So it's necessary to decide whose approval is important to you." - Harry Browne |
