Seems silly that youve aptly identified the LP opposition of government forcing companies to label food, while uncertain that they would also reject government forcing farmers to raise food a certain way.
Compelled speech is not the same thing as compelled respect of basic rights. You're trying to argue that using violence to force somebody to say something you want them to say is the same as using violence to force someone not to torture others. If you really believe that you have a muddled mind that needs a lot of work. Be careful, that kinds of inability to grasp fundamental principles leads to progressivism.

I see you glossed right over the part where I quoted "proposition 2 was opposed by ... the Libertarian Party of California, ..."
I didn't claim they weren't opposed. I challenged you to support your allegations about the official statements of the Libertarian Party. You have thus far declined to do so.
Now I know you are being intellectually dishonest.
It's impossible to be dishonest without making a claim. I have not made any claims.
