Not sure if this should go here, if not you can move it.

The Liberty On Tour crew was in my area last month, didn't know until now, I saw the van but thought it was some Tea Party bullshit. Anyway:

Liberty on Tour, founded in 2010 by Pete Eyre and Ademo Freeman, couples on-the-road activism with new media to advance the voluntary society. Through in-person interactions, online networking and constantly-varying content, LOT advocates for self-government, personal responsibility and consensual interactions.

Why do you say that?

The t-shirt with the "Dont tread on me snake", the Yellow & Black colours of Anarcho-Capitalism, the Voluntaryist symbol on the front of their bus and the rhetoric they use on their website.

either way it still highlights the unaccountable role of the police.

True, I was just pointing it out because I wasn't sure the OP had realised

I hadn't. Thanks.

But also, I would like to hear from them personally their position.

And: 'Not all Voluntaryists are anarcho capitalists'

I'd say the evidence is heavily against them, take a look at their resources (http://libertyontour.com/resources/) page for instance. The yellow and black are definitely An-Cap colours as well, the yellow symbolises gold/currency

Here's some “on-the-road activism” and “ in-person interactions”

The black and gold, voluntaryist symbol, constant vague use of the term "liberty", along with the Libertarian-separatist Free State Project logo (which is a New Hampshire thing, not sure why they went south into Massachusetts) and Nolan Chart on the side of their van all points to Anarcho-Capitalism. And this video where the same guy says he'd like the roads to be privatized.

That said, opposition to police authority is fine with me. I've been to Greenfield many times, and next time I happen to be there I'll make sure to keep an eye out for cops.

Well maybe they are. I hadn't seen that video. Hey let me know next time you'll be in Greenfield, I have yet to meet anyway from here IRL lol.

Frankly I don't care about the fate of anarcho-capitalists or quasi-anarcho-capitalists, one way or another.
