Many Americans are becoming fed up with political party loyalty. They are endorsing individuals rather then blindly voting for a particular party candidate. If you find yourself in this growing category, you maybe attending Tea Party rallies, consider yourself an Independent or Libertarian. Examine your own thinking as you read the remainder of this article.

You Might Be A Libertarian If:

  • You believe in individual rights and the responsibility for your own actions.

You can choose to live in a neighborhood controlled by a homeowners association, which determines the height of your grass and color of your house, but you should also be able to decide to not live in such a neighborhood.

  • You believe our government should pass and enforce laws to protect us from ciaos.

We need traffic codes to make sure we all drive on the same side of the road, but the government has no right to determine the color of our cars. We need public safety without micro management.

  • You believe in freedom of thought.

It’s not wrong to be different, but it is wrong to demand that every adult conform to your opinions.

  • You believe you have the right to protect your property from trespassers.

Fencing, alarms and even animals should be allowed, so long as they do not harm those outside of your property. Claymore mines and lazier guided weapons are over the top.

Maybe Libertarians are not strange little people demanding the repeal of all laws. Maybe they just want the right to be left alone, to live their lives as they choose without harming others. Who knows, you may see a Libertarian in the mirror.
