The issue for me isn't whether Starchild thinks legal enforcement of that kind of belief is or ever will be practical. The issue is that sie thinks it would be OK to do so, especially considering sie bills hirself as libertarian.

I *do* appreciate the honesty, because it enables my to cull hir directly from the list of people I could support for political office.
Hypothetical analogy: "I think it would be ethically OK to blow you away with a bazooka, but it's impractical because the cops would arrest me".
