They eliminated mandatory inspections in Texas too. Now there are going to be a bunch more cars with bald tires on the road killing others for nothing. They still collect the inspection fee though so no money lost :/
The NHLP is… they’ve broken off from the main LP party which already had some stupid ideas, but even the main LP has distanced themselves from the NHLP because of how absolutely batshit they are. They’re not really LP anymore, it’s more of a group of racist/bigoted sovereign citizen types who banded together because they figured they’d make some fucked up utopia.
New Hampshire is also the only state in the US that doesn’t require wearing a seat belt.

Now, most people still wear a seat belt. It is safer, after all. It’s merely that the government cannot require that adults do (children still have to).
Seatbelts don’t just save your life, they save the lives of others.
People in the back seat without a seatbelt can kill the passengers in the front when their bodies become projectiles.
Or just think about the municipal services and first responders who have to respond to your flesh goo. I mean all around not wearing your seatbelt is one of those tests, it actually isn’t all about you.
This just screams of willful ignorance, like when people are proud they don’t know how to use a computer or are proud they don’t know how to be politically correct.
Why enforce it for children if you’re not gonna enforce it for adults.
I love it when libertarians quote this out of context, not realizing that it often contradicts their positions.
The quote is backing the right of the state legislature to levy taxes on wealthy assholes who want the benefit of property ownership and political power but who don’t want to contribute to the welfare of society.
They eliminated inspections in Texas too. Now the road we all share will be far more dangerous made by the idiots who don’t know how to check their own tires for worn tread. A pretty dumb move that will cost others lives while providing no liberties.
When someone makes a blanket statement calling an entire group of people “racist fucks”, I don’t think any amount of reasoning will change their mind.
The second half of their comment was “No one takes them seriously”. Now that is a point I am willing to debate. When a political group controls roughly 20% of the elected seats in the state house and they have legislative victories to point to, I don’t think it’s fair to say that no one takes them seriously.
Sweeping racist accusations under the rug makes them seem valid. If they weren’t racist you could easily show how they weren’t, by seemingly changing the subject it looks like you can’t defend them.
I don’t know much about them but now I’m pretty sure they are racist fucks only because of how you have responded to people here.
Edit: looked them up, leader is paused by the heritage foundation and they are associated with the tea party, so yeah, probably racist fucks.
You know what, I strongly disagree with your political views, but seriously, good for you for staying respectful and positive when I was trying to be an ass
Thanks! This post went much further down the comment rabbit hole than I expected!
My interest in posting on Lemmy is to educate people on the liberty movement in New Hampshire (which cannot be done effectively with insults). It’s either not known, or there is a lot of misinformation. People think it ended with the Free Town Project, but it has grown 10x since then.
The NH libertarian party is just a bunch of racist fucks. No one takes them seriously.
The Liberty Caucus represents about 80 seats in the New Hampshire state house. They just eliminated Motor Vehicle Inspections!
Wait how the fuck is the elimination of safety inspections a good thing. The fuck
Are people fucking retarded?
Libertarian.
So yes.

I should have been more clear. People can still get their cars inspected, it’s just no longer required by the government.
I assure you, when people hear a weird noise coming from their cars, they still go to a mechanic. 🙂
Thank you for outting yourself like this
People don’t even go to the doctor if they hear a weird noise in their body. Fucking naïve or rich, probably both.
I can’t even imagine someone so naive as to say “when people hear a weird sound in their car they go to the mechanic.”
So they got legislation passed that makes the most dangerous thing people do even more dangerous?
Another “I only have to care about me despite my actions having broad sweeping impact on those around me” moment from the Libertarian dumbasses.

Is that something you’re proud of?
Seatbelts don’t just save your life, they save the lives of others.

Another Libertarian L
I always wear a seat belt. It’s definitely safer than not wearing one.
So to you it’s important to have the freedom of being a dumbass and endangering others?
Yes. There is a great Benjamin Franklin quote that applies here.
“The Children, they yearn for the mines”
~Big Ben Franklin

So you’re not denying they are racist fucks then
They are not 🙂
Then why did you deflect and talk about something else?
Well for two reasons:
Sweeping racist accusations under the rug makes them seem valid. If they weren’t racist you could easily show how they weren’t, by seemingly changing the subject it looks like you can’t defend them.

Who represents Grafton?
Lex Berezhny and Don McFarlane .
Both are members of the Liberty Caucus! 😀
