Which is why i added that although i got that impression from the message i said that i did not believe that to be the case. If you'll check out the last part of my message you'll see this to be true.
Also stating deporting anti Americans should be deported was my opinion and not a statement. Are we not allowed to voice how we should solve problems on this forum? As far as false accusations goes concerning my stance that a libertarian does love freedom and therefore not loving freedom could be reasonably construed to be the thinking of somebody who is not a libertarian is a false accusation how? Last if you would interpret the previous post to mean something else which does not add up to what i had said i'd appreciate you are anybody else pointing it out. Like i said im here to discuss and have conceded several points already on how to solve problems.
