It is wrong to bring the NRA in this. Their not racist and they are right, Obama, like Clition before him, wants to steal the citizns guns.

Libertarians would do well to read it and maybe glean some ideas.

There have been racists/nationalists involved in the LP, but to my knowledge, none who have been in leadership positions.

When I was chairman of the Riverside County Libertarian Party here in California, I dealt with quite a few racist wackjobs. Interestingly, they all identified with the patriot movement as well. Luckily, the vast majority of people I have dealt with were sane and rational (at least in terms of race!).

Another story: back in 1994, the Libertarian Party of California held it’s state convention in Los Angeles near LAX airport. One of the vendors in attendance was associated with the Liberty Lobby and selling copies of it’s anti-semetic/extreme nationalist newspaper “The Spotlight”, among other piece of literature. Willis Carto, founder of the Liberty Lobby, was in favor of repatriating blacks back to Africa.

Needless to say, some of us were very taken aback at the presence of such a vendor. Some of us spoke with Cullene Lang (convention organizer) and she saw absolutely no problem with this vendor being present. David Nolan called for a suspension of the rules to deal with this matter and eventually, some of us organized and moved the venor and his table to the farthest end of the vending area. You can read more of it in the minutes of the 1994 convention here (page 3) http://marketliberal.org/LPCA/Conventions/LPC_convention_minutes_1994.pdf

Yeah, if you’re a libertarian that supports the Civil Rights act of 1964, for example.

“but what of the right-libertarians that are hard on immigration?”

I dont see why it has to be right-libertarians. Left-libertarians are just as capable of racism.

I used to be pretty hard on immigration before I got into libertarianism. To the point of stting up machine gun nests and gunning them down as they cross

Well, I guess there could be some racist Libertarians. Probably not outright, but what of the right-libertarians that are hard on immigration? Yeah. but doubt there are any outright racists. I know, not all people hard on immigration are racist, just saying, some are.

I don’t know any either.

I cant name any names—I know none personally. But I didnt know any outright racists in the CP either. I assure you there are some–perhaps the other LPers here will name them by name.

Anyway, sorry for the name calling, I saw that you responded to me on another thread.

But I don’t think there is a white supremacist LP member. Sounds like a contradiction

Trent, you’re a moron. Name one LP white supremacist. Why do you have to always drag the LP down to your level? You certainly can’t say the same about the CP, dimwit.

GE,

No im not–Im quite aware of it. Affirmative Action, welfare, etc—these are all programs meant to “help the poor black man that cant help himself.”

You are all letting the left (Greens, Dems) off the hook on their anti-black, patronizing racism. I’d say that’s much more evident than any “reverse” racism on their part. Call it “inverse racism.”
