Indeed.  It's one thing to think abortion is immoral or be against it.  It's another thing to want to use government force to stop it.

I thought about this while watching the latest MSS. While they were discussing free speech, DPR kept saying things like, "Do you have a problem with..." And what I would have LOVED to be able to do is tell him right then and there, that isn't the issue! I do not approve of racist speech; I have a BIG problem with it. But I would NEVER pass a law saying that those who make racist speeches should be arrested and imprisoned. Those are two entirely different things.

Yeah, as I said to you in AIM, the title alone merits a fail quote.  And as you said, it doesn't help that he shares Hawkeye's last name.

And yeah, given that the anti-abortion* people use the same "if you dun want govco to ban it, you must love it and think it's good!" argument that the drug warriors (and hell, statists in general) use, it sounds more and more like a statist, not libertarian, philosophy.  Guys, if you need government to achieve your ideology/goal, that is, you need to initiate force on peaceful people, your philosophy probably wasn't very virtuous to begin with.

Thanks.  The quote by Harry Browne ("Given the results of the War on Poverty and the War on Drugs, if the government starts a War on Abortion, in five years men will be having abortions." —Harry Browne) at the end was a win quote. :)
