Larken Rose
Larken Rose is a libertarian activist who was as sentenced to 15 months in prison for willful failure to file income tax returns in five years in which the government alleged he earned approximately $500,000 in income.[1] He was released from prison in December 2006.[2][3] Rose has spoken out against the tendency of some libertarians to seek to expel from the liberty movement those libertarians who make controversial remarks that might attract criticism to the movement, even if the libertarian in question did not claim to be speaking on behalf of the movement.[4]
