Through the years, I have seen some very pretty non-firing firearms replicas. The "non-firing" part completely ruins them for me.
A large part of the beauty of a firearm comes from knowing it functions as it's supposed to function, which includes sending a projectile downrange at high speed. Even the airgun replicas of real firearms are better than the non-firing replicas because of this.
And blank-firing guns are all noise and disappointment.
That's kind of how I feel about "libertarian-leaning" people. They may look nice, but they fail to function correctly. By insisting on hanging on to some statism, for pragmatic or other reasons, they don't work right.
They might make a nice display piece, or a lot of noise, but they won't save the day when the chips are down. All because they're unable to let go and trust liberty.
Go crazy
