    The libertarian would be carrying a concealed weapon, likely modified to be fully automatic. The anarchist would be carrying a single Molotov cocktail and a can of spray paint.

    The anarchist has one, and only one, chance to take out the libertarian, and that is with a direct hit from the Molotov. Even then, the anarchist would have to throw it before the libertarian can draw his/her weapon. After that, the libertarian would make mince meat of the anarchist.

    The anarchist does have a chance of avoiding the fight altogether by spray painting "Good Government = No Government" on a wall, after which the two foes would pause and realize that they have basically the same views.

    Seems to me, the Antichrist would easily win against a librarian.

    After reading the question a second time, I think the the well armed libertarian would win. I would never take on one of my in-laws. They are love guns, fight dirty and make anarchists seem reasonable.

    I'd say the libertarian (if we are talking Tea-Party variety).

    Why? Well, the Anarchist would start off strong, and the Libertarian would try to be all calm and cool. The Anarchist would be all tough, and full of bluster and initial anger.

    But after the fight started getting serious, the Libertarian would go bat-shit crazy and let loose with YEARS of repressed rage and anger.

    The Anarchist wouldn't be able to compare - where the Libertarian has all that repressed rage, the Anarchist just has guilt over being born into an upper middle class white family.

    It depends on whether or not they're the same person.

    All the libertarians I've ever known were intellectual types with soft hands who have never worked an honest day in their lives. All the anarchists I've ever known have a lot of pent up rage just aching for an outlet. My money's on the anarchist.

    Emma Goldman vs Ron Paul? My money's on Emma.

    (Libretarians take their name thanks to a french Anarchist-Commie... So I'd say anarchist wins, perhaps even just by taunt.)

    Remember, big-L Libertarian is the US political movement that believes Ayn Rand's distorted philosophy, little-l libertarian is another word to describe Anarchists, and others who believe in liberty from decisions in which they didn't participate.

    That said, Anarchists have street fighting skills. Some, such as the Spanish Anarchists who fought against Franco, are quite handy with weapons too. Big-L Libertarians tend to be armchair politicos and tend toward the paranoid and doughy (IMHO), and as such would lose a street fight.
