 Third Libertarian Forum
In 1962, the SDS issued their famous Port Huron Statement which, though not truly radical, was much more appealing to many young people than ADA-type liberalism.
In 1964 came what Liggio considers to have been the turning point: "Freedom Summer" in Mississippi.
The outcome was that many of the young people involved came to regard the Establishment, for the first time, as criminals.

But he doesn’t think Congress has the stomach for such hearings, explaining that "congressmen always hide until they see what’s going on." Part of the problem, he said, is the president sends the bombers, then informs Congress, rather than waiting for the legislature to authorize the action.
And there is "no mechanism for (Congress) to insist they have all the information," Liggio said, which limits its ability to make decisions about the action.
One advantage of the congressional recess is that legislators might get an earful about the air strikes from their constituents.

 Forget the Left, Neocon or Otherwise by Paul Gottfried
Two, some on our side are driven by an understandable desire to fight the political establishment with well-positioned allies.
Thus Murray Rothbard and Leonard Liggio, who could never be reasonably accused of compromising their beliefs, tried to build an alliance in the sixties and seventies with leftist opponents of the warfare state.
Nothing much came of this enterprise, except for a few scholarly ventures most notably with the pre-neocon Ronald Radosh, and as far as I know, this alliance-building was subsequently abandoned by the Right, where it had been taken more seriously than by the other side.

 Libertarian Conference Ends in Chaos
New York, NY -- One hunderd and sixty people, including a few suspected undercover agents, gathered for a three-day conference at the Hotel Diplomat in Manhattan over Columbus Day weekend.
They came to hear such speakers as Murray Rothbard, Karl Hess, and Leonard Liggio give their views on what libertarianism is and what it implies in the context of the state of affairs in America today.
The stated purposes of the conference were to radicalize the right-wing libertarians, to convince the left-wing activists there that the Rothbardian libertarians were on their side, and to provide anarcho-libertarian analyses of recent historical events.

Ironically, Ollman had great respect for libertarians, such as Rothbard and Leonard Liggio, whom he'd met during his days in the Peace and Freedom Party.
For instance, I guess you know the metaphor of the button invented by Leonard Read.
