Liberty- it's all or nothing
If you are against liberty in one area, you are against liberty.
If you are for anti-gun "laws", you are against liberty.
If you support cops, you are against liberty.
If you are for the War on Politically Incorrect Drugs, you are against liberty.
If you are wishy-washy about the right of association, you are against liberty.
If you don't respect property rights, you are against liberty.
If you are for a government "solution" to anything, you are against liberty.
You can pick and choose the bits of liberty you personally exercise, but not which bits you unconditionally respect and support. Not and still value liberty.
You may still be a nice person; you may even be mainly "good", but by undercutting liberty anywhere, you undermine it all.
