While I'm stirring up renewed invective here, I'll observe that one's position on this and the "Lost Liberties Hotel" project could be at least as good a litmus test for one's pro-freedom principles as 9/11.

While I appreciate the principle of ownership, not everyone does. Because of the inadviseability of plugging the thieves, a practical demonstration of the absence of the right to one's property seems to be in order. Call it remedial education.
Also, such a great opportunity for the perfect demonstration of the meaning of "hoist on one's own petard" really can't be passed up.

That's ridiculous!
Hmm... let's see here...
Stealing is wrong.
Initiating force against others is wrong.
Two wrongs don't make a right (and it doesn't even send a good message).
You would think that self-proclaimed libertarians would know better. Then again, these are the ones who are part of the LP and happen to want access to political power.
