Lynch" Whether something is plausible or not is a subjective thing. No it isn't. Please elaborate. Those are the people who have not been exposed to other cultures. What other cultures should individuals be exposed to in order to understand libertarianism? Whether duels will be more common or not depends on the society. Right. That's just what I was saying. No, as you said the following in a previous message.. As I explained before, I seriously doubt there would be many duels even if they were legal. Behavior depends far more on what is accepted than on what is legal..... All you said that it is going to be less common in some default society. You happen to pick one where duels are uncommon. Why not pick one where duels are going to be more common? Should duels be regulated in such a society? When is a duel legit in such a society? Willie ------- -------
