@Rseasha,
A Libertarian you say? Oh dear,and I was really beginning to like and respect you. Oh well,perhaps you will recover.
I can understand Min referring to libertarians as Nazis, it's hard to tell the difference between Nazis and some of the more simple minded libertarians. (such as say Pat Condell) However, I would not refer to either you or Void as Nazis,.I think you are both too broad minded and complex of thought for that,unlike Mr Condell,with his popularist sloganising.
I don't always agree with Min either,but he's bright, articulate,erudite and witty. I think he contributes great deal to this forum. Returning insult for insult is adolescent,and often leads to a stupid flame war few here want.
In the meantime, OF COURSE I will continue to like and respect you AND Min.

TANGENT:
Using a Nazi analogy is not ALWAYS Godwin's Law (Reductio Ad Hitlerum) in action. I think Mike Godwin made the observation as a facile and witty comment, not meant to be taken too seriously, any more than the wry but dreary Murphy's Law.
