Have you been on libertarian Internet recently? I don't see a lot of hand-wringing about people's civil liberties being under attack.

check out reason.com ... that's pretty much all they are talking about.

in my experience only the comments section which is full of the same whackos as it has been for the past decade. I'm a regular reader at reason, lots of the articles are good and present traditional libertarian points of view.

Those guys are just embarrassed republicans trying to pass themselves off as more intellectual, when they're just as close minded as ever and want to end civil rights and political speech. I've watched the Mises branches and they are not traditional libertarians at all. they welcome in the bigots and other white supremacists for the numbers it adds to their roll calls.
