@spruce112358 saidLibertarians are not full blown anarchists, there is a role for the state, police, justice, defense. You have a right to live your life free from force, threats of force and fraud, the state has a role in protecting those rights.
No problem.
If we only have to respect but NOT protect the rights of others, then people can opt out of supporting the government with tax dollars.
The only reason for everyone to be required to pay tax dollars to support a government is because we recognize a universal obligation to protect the rights of others.
Example: Libertarian A lives next to Libertarian ...[text shortened]... ill discharge your obligation. But you can't just ignore it when the rights of others are violated."
