What if I just claim a large area of land as mine? I could just as easily claim the moon is mine. How do you manage property rights without force and/or coercion?

Fucking trollz.
Rothbard is not a god. Stop idolizing him.

You don't. I don't know many libertarians that advocate complete non-violence. Violence and the threat thereof are necessary aspects of law.
Seems like that philosophy lacks consistency, then.

This I agree with. But, there is also defensive and aggressive violence to differentiate. It's all over this forum (the OP is a troll) or I would go into it here.
Hey, kylio27, if you weren't so obviously a troll, people wouldn't respond in kind.

Polycentric law/property recognition could in theory be completely non-violent and voluntary (The author won a nobel prize recently). It's not my responsibility to find you a copy of it that is accessible, but if you actually care, then you'll read a few of her papers. She is not in favor of the State or the Market.
Who said Rothbard was a God? He simply provides an explanation of the question you asked.
And judging by your immediate mark of death with the "philosophy/consistency" comment, you looking for structural weaknesses in the libertarian philosophy? Asking on a forum, and then citing the forum later on, is a pretty strenuous way to discredit something. These forum users are anon and all have various opinions. Rothbard would make sense if you are writing for academics...
Which philosophy?

Absolutely there is a difference. I didn't make a distinction because law can be based on both aggressive and defensive violence.
Nice pic, btw.
