ya because it is one of the libertarians main ideological beliefs that the government should be "tough on national defense and law enforcement.

Actually, it is.

Except that Guiliani's idea of "tough on crime" is much different than the Libertarian idea. Need I say War on Drugs? There's a reason that they say "real" crime in that link.

Seriously lol, especially since Giuliani's idea of a criminal is a panhandler or a homeless guy with a dirty squeegee on the corner or a drug user. Yeah, real "tough on crime" there.

Finally, nearly one half of all police resources are devoted to stopping drug trafficking, instead of preventing violent crime. The bottom line? By ending drug prohibition Libertarians would double the resources available for crime prevention, and significantly reduce the number of violent criminals at work in your neighborhood.
