Local, California, Libertarian Party Official formerly convicted of child molestation

This guy, Matthew Barnes, had sex with a 13 year old in the 90's, and this local chapter of the Libertarian party sees no reason why he shouldn't be their vice chairmen since he already served his time. I can't help but wonder if they secretly see him as some sort of victim of the big bad government for not recognizing his right to fuck 13 year olds. Maybe if he did something truly horrible, like lobby to end exploitation of third world, sweat labour, they wouldn't have been so forgiving. ...fucking kids though, now that's forgiveable to them apparently.

I really hate libertarians. I really do. They think the 12th century practices pederastry, polygamy, prostitution, etc, are some how progressive. Some of the hardcore ones probably wouldn't give a fuck if kids were homeless and smoking crack. I think the only reason why they're so resistant to environmentalism is because in their Randian, Objectivist, delusions of grandeur, environmental laws mean they won't live to their full, godlike potential, and they don't care about the consequences that future generations may have to face because, to simply put it, they aren't them. They're egoistic, individualists. They have no existential fears about the problems that future generations will inherit, because they aren't apart of those generations. They fulfil all of their existential needs by working to build up a private utopia for their selves, despite the effects that it might have on other people. They really sicken me.
