WELCOME!...Our aim is to host LIO focused Libertarian Community and the Libertarian-interested social network in Pinellas-Pasco developed via the "I LEAP!" method--Interpersonal, Legislative, Educative, Action, Public Administration and win documentation means. This Blog gives an overview of non-partisan activities of our private Community and Network.
