    And to be clear, obviously throwing things isn't alright either - but calling people "terrorists" because they got water on your car is outright absurd.
    If the LP is referring to the use of the word terrorist, theyre 100% correct here.

    The terrorist label is thrown around way way WAY too much.

    If she would have called them a bunch of $#@!ing $#@!s, I dont know that they would have objected. Doesnt seem like it.

    The LP is looking for any excuse to defend leftist criminals.
    They did not merely object to the term "terrorists", they attempted to defend their actions as mere "protesting" and "speech".

    The LP has been completely captured by the enemy.

    Both of the examples you posted are kind of borderline.

    I can see where the tone of their posts could be construed a certain way.

    But seriously, dont you agree that calling them terrorists is extra?

    It's hyperbola, but all of politics is conducted with hyperbola.
    And it's not much hyperbola, the use of violence for political ends is terrorism.

    The Libertarians party's enhanced outreach problem may lead to a deficit from their right wing foundation, if MSM sources such as this are to be believed.

    This prompted the LP to defend the mob of unruly leftists, claiming that it was within their constitutional rights to menace Bennett and throw projectiles at her in an attempt to obstruct her from spreading her pro-gun message.
    Ms. Bennett, you have a right to your opinion, and a right to voice it.
    These college students do as well.
    Calling them "terrorists" because they utilized their right to assembly and speech is both dishonest and shameful.

    As the LP was attacked for their seemingly incomprehensible opinion, they doubled down on their support for the leftist mob.
    Protests are often charged and hectic.
    Based on what info is provided here, no bodily harm came to anyone in attendance.
    A situation that may appear frightening isn't cause for accusing people exercising their rights of being evil – something we believe Ms. Bennett advocates.

    We don't see any hands being put on her – that would of course be inappropriate.
    And to be clear, obviously throwing things isn't alright either – but calling people "terrorists" because they got water on your car is outright absurd.

    This is far from the first time that the Libertarians have stood with far-left liberals as they march to destroy liberty. Their stated goal is to throw elections to the Democrats these days:
    Although Kentucky Gov. Matt Bevin has refused to concede defeat, preliminary results show his Democratic opponent Andy Beshear beating him by a narrow margin in yesterday’s gubernatorial race.
    The final count showed Bevin trailing by a mere 4,658 votes, or 0.3 percentage points. This is well under the 28,427 votes collected by the Libertarian Party gubernatorial candidate John Hicks, who received 2 percent of the vote in the election.
    While it may not be the case that Libertarian voters would preferred Bevin if Hicks were theoretically removed from the ballot, the Libertarian Party of Kentucky (LPK) is taking great pride in their role as anti-Republican spoiler. They are rubbing it in the face of Bevin voters, flaunting their role in handing the governorship over to a socialist liberal.
    “In an ideal world, we elect Libertarian candidates and advance liberty. Failing that, we push mainstream candidates towards liberty to advance the cause,” the LPK wrote in a Facebook post on Tuesday night.
    “But if we can’t do those things, we are always happy to split the vote in a way that causes delicious tears. Tonight there are plenty of delicious tears from Bevin supporters,” they added.
    The LPK criticized Bevin despite his limited government credentials and willingness to push back against big government entities like the state teachers’ union as governor. They cited Bevin’s unwillingness to cut taxes or support criminal justice reform, despite the fact that did both while in office.
    The libertarian movement has fallen far since the days when Ron Paul was in Congress, as the LP embraces useful idiocy for the Left.
