Of course he did, he hated the Vietnam War didn't he?

Damn it!  Anarchist doesn't equal libertarian!  I want police, courts and a military thankyouverymuch.

anarchist ... well, I really meant "anti- The Man"

I've read it.  Maybe he's a bit of a personal anarchist while ideologically Democratic, so "liberal" could be right. 

He certainly didn't show much care for laws or authority throughout his life and he did like guns I think.
