In many ways I consider myself a Libertarian. At my age, unfortunately, I've experienced too many people, while vigorously defending their own rights to freedom, have not come to the defense of those unable to defend their own. What system is in place to protect the weak, infirm and young? Society will always have those who want to control others--so what structure could exist in a Libertarian Society where the malicious activities of others are measured and exacted?
