An armed citizen does stand against violence: state violence.

I think it really does vary. I personally do, but there are many who do not.

I would love to read the book though. Especially when he talks about the Sons of Liberty, because to me they seem to have signficant pro-Confederate sympathies.

No, they stand against aggressive force. Violence can be defensive sometimes.

But don't the Libertarians stand against violence? ANother reason I don't support them.The libertarian believe in non-aggression. That's not the same as just opposing violence. There is nothing in libertarianism that suggests you can not defend yourself or your rights.
