"Being a bigoted racist needs to be controlled."

Which is why bigots are social outcasts. The majority of people don't want to be associated with that kind of behavior. When we allow a bigot to express his or her opinion, we are afforded the unique opportunity to punish hom (or her) socially for his or her views.

Some people think homosexuality ought to be controlled. If they gain the upper hand, are you comfortable allowing them to control the behavior they consider undesirable? I wouldn't. I prefer to allow people to express their opinions and run their businesses as they please... even if I find them utterly detestable.

The libertarians I associate with are not anarchists. Anarchy is an unworkable system. What we do advocate is personal accountability and personal social responsibility, versus the current model of gunpoint charity and forced friendliness.
