As Libertarians, we defend each person's right to engage in any activity that is peaceful and honest and we welcome the diversity that freedom brings. We seek a world of liberty; a world in which all individuals control their own lives and are never forced to compromise their values or sacrifice their property. We believe that no conflict exists between civil order and individual rights and that individuals, groups, or governments should not initiate force against other individuals, groups, or governments.
LIFE: We believe that all individuals have the
right to control their own lives and live in whatever manner they
choose, as long as they do not interfere with the identical rights
of others.
LIBERTY: The only proper functions of government
are the protection of the people from actual foreign or domestic
threats to their lives and freedoms; and the protection of their
individual rights, namely—life, property, and liberty of speech and
action.
PROPERTY: The only economic system compatible with
the protection of individual human rights is the free market;
therefore, the fundamental right of individuals to own property and
to enjoy the rewards of their just earnings should not be
compromised.
Wisconsin open carry
"Carrying a firearm is a right, not a privilege. Wisconsin's
constitution says that we can bear arms 'for any lawful purpose.'
This means that law-abiding citizens should not need to beg the
government for permission to carry a firearm. Likewise, one should
not have to be photographed, fingerprinted, or registered before
they can exercise their rights."[1]
Wisconsin indoor smoking ban
"Libertarians believe owners of private property should be able to
determine--for good reasons, bad reasons, or no reason at
all--whether to admit smokers, nonsmokers, or both. Customers or
employees who choose to go elsewhere would not be relinquishing any
right that they ever possessed. However, when a businessman is
forced to enforce an unwanted smoking policy on his own property,
the government violates his rights."[2]
