<p>67.151.90.174: </p> <hr /> <div>The first paragraph achieves the glorious task of knocking down a strawman. <br /> <br /> Libertarianism opposes ''aggression'' which is generally defined as initiating or ''threatening'' to initiate physical coercion.<br /> <br /> Therefore, I can use my own judgment to know if someone is threatening me and take proactive measures without being an aggressor. I can kick someone who is in the process of punching me way before his fist reaches me.<br /> <br /> It should also be noted that the article talks about the &quot;rightful monopoly of force&quot; which implies sacrifice of the taxpayers who pay not for their own protection but also for the protection &quot;needed&quot; by others.</div>
