Libertarian Pragmatism

[r3volution 3.0]

Is it ever justifiable to violate someone's rights to prevent a larger rights violation?

Some hypotheticals to ponder as you make your decision:

A. 1916, the bolshevik party is outlawed and its members executed (they've committed no crime yet); the bolshevik revolution is thus prevented.

B. Operation Valkyrie - you have a chance to kill Hitler, but it's on a public street, where there will be "collateral damage."

C. A person accused of a crime is afforded due process, found guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, & punished; there's still a chance he's innocent.
