Well the entire appeal of the NAP is its simplicity. Once you start admitting the existence of exceptions and edge cases the whole enterprise becomes more or less indistinguishable from "utilitarianism, but with a high presumption of utils for personal liberty"

Many lukewarm libertarians like me abandoned Paul for Trump when we realized he was a once in a lifetime opportunity. I'll go back to that after Trump's glorious reign ends.
