This may be a Captain Obvious moment, but it's not surprising that an international organization like Students for Liberty has a globalist and interventionist mindset. It would not be a shock at all if they also supported gun registration or outright gun bans (for mundanes, of course). Guns are an American "thing", and would not fit in a global Utopia.
"Foreign aid is taking money from the poor people of a rich country, and giving it to the rich people of a poor country." - Ron Paul
"Beware the Military-Industrial-Financial-Pharma-Corporate-Internet-Media-Government Complex." - B4L update of General Dwight D. Eisenhower
"Debt is the drug, Wall St. Banksters are the dealers, and politicians are the addicts." - B4L
"Totally free immigration? I've never taken that position. I believe in national sovereignty." - Ron Paul

Um, YAL and SFL are pretty damn good. Just because some random board member is neocon-ish doesn't make us all so. Ever been to a convention? It is like all AnCaps (at least the participants. I can't speak for the speakers or the board of either group) .

Yeah, i don't give a darn what a board member says. When I was in SFL a few years ago when I was in school, the "top" of the organization had absolutely NO political or moral influence on the group I was in. They were excellent for supplying materials and information on how to spread the message, but they didn't tell you what the message was.
I went to a Chicago SFL conference in 2010 or so and not a single attendee there was an interventionist. Every last one supported Ron Paul.
No more IRS.
I am now old enough to vote.
I don't think we should use a broad brush on any collective group (saying an entire organization is X, Y, or Z)...that's not individualist libertarian thinking. However, interventionists cannot be libertarians...it's logically impossible, given the meaning of "libertarianism".
btw - speaking of the institute -- I am looking for a shirt, but they don't seem to be selling any merch.
Don't you guys know that the Koch brother stand for liberty just because they donated a few FRNs to some real human beings. Since they donated to a few real liberty candidates they must be good. So shut the $#@! up and go along to get along. [mod edit]
On Trump:
How conservative Republicans can continue to support this arrogant imposter—the man who brags about inflicting the world with the Covid mark of the beast; the man who said, “Take the guns first, go through due process second”; and the man who deliberately played and then set up Stewart Rhodes (of course, Stewart was all too eager to be Trump’s patsy) for an 18-year prison sentence—is truly beyond my comprehension.” Chuck Baldwin
