As far as I am aware, a Libertarian (and I am one) is to be able to do whatever they wish to do, as long as it doesn't stop other Libertarians doing what they want to do. With me, the verdict is not so cut and dried I'm afraid. A smoking libertarian who smokes in a public place that I wish to frequent is stopping me (medical reasons) from going into that establishment. So they are denying me the right to do what I want in a public place. We need to rephrase the guidelines to what a libertarian is. My suggestion is: A libertarian should be allowed to do whatever he wants to do unless it infringes on the right of a HEALTHY person to do what they want to do. From my point of view, if we can change the meaning of a Libertarian to my meaning as above, then I could throw myself into protecting the right of a Libertarian to smoke where he wants to. How about it guys? Can we change the meaning to my meaning? Ampers Taylor. Smoking is an interesting point where Libertarians are concerned.
