    So the arms race just needs to continue!!

    The private militia needs tanks! Missiles! Fighter jets!

    …come to think of it, I guess Mexican drug cartels are pretty much the libertarian wet dream.

      Ooo, that one’s good, I’ve never thought of that before. I bet “So you want a weak government like Mexico?” would short circuit many libertarian’s brains.
