POSTING GUIDELINES and ADVICE FOR NEW MEMBERS

Libertarian movements typically fail because, in part, libertarians make no attempt to reach out beyond the ZAP, and don't seem to care about the opinions of people who disagree. If ticking a large percentage of people off is something that we should resign ourselves to than I might as well pack my bags and move back to New York, because we're wasting our time.

Yes, people will get ticked off, but it is part of our responsibility to make sure that number is as low as possible. Throwing a "takeover" in peoples faces is the number one way to lose support, and if the FSP loses support, the FSP loses.

I'm sorry, I thought this was a libertarian movement. Ticking people off is inherent to the FSP. I mean, look at all those politicians in Concord we've got riled up. Be prepared to defend...

You assume that anything that has been presented is true. For example, it has been stated many times that Larry is a convicted felon. That is not true. But this Sniper has apparently got your attention because you were looking for an excuse to get rid of Zack Bass anyways.

Oh, I'm sorry. He's not a convicted felon. He got off on a technicality, after a judgment was leveled against him. I guess that makes him innocent.

To address your accusation, I was never looking for a reason to get rid of Zack Bass. I considered him a good activist, just a little misguided about the path to success. This recent revelation has altered my opinion.

That non sequitur is exactly what I would expect out of certain "libertarian" members of the FSP.

The Hitler comment was hardly non-sequitur. It proved a point. But hey, you can just ignore it and continue to attack me with snide little comments about my political leanings.

Just out of curiosity, you wouldn't happen to be Morpheus, would you?
