Do you even know what the civil rights movement was about? It was about being against the Jim Crow laws THAT WERE UNCONSTITUTIONAL AND WOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN SUPPORTED BY ANY LIBERTARIAN...... No group should get any special treatment but there should be no law that discriminates any group. Learn how to think like an adult.

You're only partially right. It was about restoring dignity to both the oppressed blacks and the oppressive white establishment through non-violent means. Ultimately it meant social and economic reforms. The Jim Crow laws only touched the surface. Ron Pauls policies would be anti-economic justice because Ron Pauls policies woul, as you said, ignore the centuries of oppression suffered. Simply abolishing racist official laws and establishments would only fix a small minority of issues Blacks faced at the time, and would probably just eventually reshuffle the oppression. So I ask again, if he wants to call MLK an ally, where was he during the movement?

People like Altra make me sick. Ron Paul is the only person that wants to repeal the drug laws that are far more damaging to the black and minority communities than the Jim Crow laws yet he wants to act self righteous and attack RP for saying that there should be no legislation that favors one group over another.

Bitch and moan, twist and squirm, the truth is Ron Paul is only tagging along on the civil rights movement after the heavy lifting is done. He wants to ally himself with great figures in American History in the hopes that it will increase his brand recognition, yet his supporters let him get away with picking and choosing select parts of the movement. Ron Paul holds these Americans in high esteem... as tools he can use to cloak his unjust opinions in.

Again you put your ignorance on full display. Civil libertarians are the greatest champions of individual rights which is the basis of your civil rights.

Protip, there is no such thing as collective rights and if you vote yes on the basis of collective rights then you are a ANTI civil rights proponent.

Look, Des already said he cares more about drug laws than segregation. If theres one thing MLK rallied against, it was segregation. If there were two things he rallied against, it was segregation and thugs. Sorry, but MLK would not enforce Ron Paul. Maybe you silly supporters should take a another look at MLKs issues through another lens. Preferably one that's not actually in your messiah's ass.

This is what confuses me. I bet Ron Paul was too busy writing racist newsletters to go march with King.

The civil rights act was unnecessary. They should have just repealed the Jim Crow laws and other laws that put people in groups.

The thing about libertarians is that they believe all individuals have rights and that nobody should have benefits or unfair treatment because they belong to a group, whether it be black, white, straight, gay, man or woman.

A Ron Paul reality check, courtesy of the Daily Beast and Ron Paul's extensive body of work.

Ron Paul, Feb 1991 posted:

I was among the first to bring you news, about a year ago, that the Rev. Martin Luther King plagiarized his doctoral dissertation. The January 1991 issue of Chronicles magazine tells the whole sordid story, but to scoop them, the Wall Street Journal ran a ‘sensitive’ story. And now the New Republic reports that it, the WSJ, the Washington Post, and the New York Times knew about the plagiarism long ago but chose to suppress it. So much for our free press.

“We know that King is a Marxist and a world-class adulterer. But there is yet another charge, and this appears in black columnist Carl Rowan’s new book Breaking Barriers (Boston: Little, Brown, 1991).

“While Rowan was head of the U.S. Information Agency under LBJ, he found out about the FBI bugging of King’s multifarious sexual activities. Documented on tape: a sexual relationship between King and his fellow Christian minister, Ralph David Abernathy. See Rowan’s book for the exact words, which I cannot bring myself to quote. Am I glad I voted in Congress against an expensive federal holiday for this man.

http://www.tnr.com/sites/default/files/PR_Feb91_p7.pdf




Ron Paul, Dec 1990 posted:

He [King] was also a comsymp, if not an actual party member, and the man who replaced the evil of forced segregation with the evil of forced integration.

“King, the FBI files show, was not only a world-class adulterer, he also seduced underage girls and boys. The Rev. Ralph David Abernathy revealed before his death that King had made a pass at him years before.

“And we are supposed to honor this ‘Christian minister’ and lying socialist satyr with a holiday that puts him on par with George Washington?

“Congratulations to Arizona! Who could doubt that the result would be exactly the same if the other 49 states could also vote on a holiday for this affirmative-action saint?

Source



Ron Paul, Feb 1990 posted:
Boy, it sure burns me to have a national holiday for Martin Luther King. I voted against this outrage time and time again as a Congressman. What an infamy that Ronald Reagan approved it! We can thank him for our annual Hate Whitey Day.

It is all about everyone having rights as an indvidual, not as being part of a group. Collectivists are the real racists.



Edit: And Sir Garth. Ron Paul didn't write those. But I icon bet anyone on this board that Sir Garth is some white guy sitting at his computer with his white man guilt trying to pretend he is righteously making up for his white forefather's racism.

So I decided to start looking at who it was that produced this lying smear job at TNR and what TNR is. The first thing I noticed that no specific author took credit, instead the piece was by "TNR Staff"

Okay, lets find out who these "staff" are.

Marty Peretz opps, right away, former editor chief, now editor emeritus .. a leftist Zionist.

Leon Wieseltier Two for two...

Ruth Franklin Three for three...

John B. Judis a socialist revolutionary.

Adam Kirsch

Jed Perl

Sarah Williams Goldhagen

T.A. Frank

And so on and so forth. IE no surprises for who is behind this hit piece.

Why is it so simple and obviously incorrect for you? You clearly don't understand what the civil rights act was all about. If you did understand it and really think we would have achieved more or as much without it then you have bigger problems than just supporting a stupid candidate.

The drug war has the most racist laws on the books and Ron Paul is the only one against them.

And Ron Paul has more minority and black supporters than all the other GOP candidates combined. Yet all these white VN tools want to pretend to be righteous. How lame.

So he supports the right of any state to pass laws that the majority of it's citizens want...like treating minorities like shit.

Far from being against Jim Crow laws, he would be among their biggest supporters. You know it, or if you don't...you are an idiot.

It isn't that complicated. If all people are treated equally under law then discrimination under government guise isn't a problem. And if you think that Obama has a lock on the minority vote just wait til RP wins the Republican nomination and we will see then who has the best interest of the individual.

Edit: And yes Tych2 you are just as much of a lil' b17ch as Ptilk.

Sorry, Ron Paul's belief that the Drug war should be carried out at the discretion of the 50 states instead of the federal government doesn't excuse his shitty record on civil rights and the terrible words published under his name.

Drug war isn't a magic wand that ifxes all the problems with Ron Paul.

Ron Paul believes that businesses should be perfectly free to discriminate against anyone and that the government has no right to intervene. The invisible hand of the free market will make sure that their discriminatory businesses will fail. No mention of time frame, of course. Why, without the Civil Rights Act, discrimination would probably almost have disappeared by 2120 or so.

If the person behind "paulg" gave out his username to his racist, anti-semitic friend, then he is responsible for the zionist conspiracy babbling his friend writes. He can say that his account was hacked, and the words he wrote were misrepresenting him --if his account was actually hacked. If paulg the person was found to have paid his friend to post under his user name, I think people would rightly assume paulg the person endorsed what paulg the pseudonym wrote. To think otherwise is to ignore personal responsibility. I don't see how you can argu, let alone believe, otherwise, unless you are blinded by your messiah.

America recognizes slavery, Jim Crow, segregation, discrimination, bigotry, racism, and other prejudices as immoral. This has changed since before MLK. I don't think you understand what you're talking about, at all.

That's true..

but only because no single individual's moral code lines up exactly with laws of this nation. Moral codes play a role in the existence of laws whether you like it or not.

Also ironic because Libertarianism is all about converting the moral code of each libertarian into the law of the land.

Slavery was constitutional until they amended the constitution. Ron Paul would be for this amendment, but the important thing is why. He would be for it because the states voted for it. He wouldn't be for it because of any "morality" and I think that distinction is very important.

Fun Fact: Ron Paul is against us having waged the civil war. I would extrapolate from this that he would have been against an amendment freeing the slaves because the South was held hostage after the North won. Signing an amendment under duress doesn't seem to fit his philosophy.

Exactly what am I ignorant of? I get my information directly from Dr. Paul himself and his very vocal supporters. I'm currently reading Dr. Kings autobiography and do not think he would be impressed by Ron Paul.

Fun Fact: Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. had a strict policy of not endorsing political candidates. Trying to exploit MLK for politics is a slap in the face to his memory.

This is the letter sent to American Mercury from Ron Paul. Signed on his Congressional letterhead.

"The American Mercury was an anti-Semitic magazine owned by Willis Carto, one of America’s most notorious holocaust deniers and the founder of The Liberty Lobby. The issue of The American Mercury Paul praised included essays entitled, “You Can’t Escape the Kosher Food Tax,” “Are You Ready for the White Man’s Doomsday,” and “Racism – Black African Style.”"

now I know we are saying that he may have not written the articles in question but he did actually sign and send this letter to a known anti-Semitic magazine.

He has a bit of a dicey past.

It's certainly verifiable that awful things were published under his name.
Which is the question. Were awful things published under Ron Paul's name? Yes.

This is the letter sent to American Mercury from Ron Paul. Signed on his Congressional letterhead.

"The American Mercury was an anti-Semitic magazine owned by Willis Carto, one of America’s most notorious holocaust deniers and the founder of The Liberty Lobby. The issue of The American Mercury Paul praised included essays entitled, “You Can’t Escape the Kosher Food Tax,” “Are You Ready for the White Man’s Doomsday,” and “Racism – Black African Style.”"

now I know we are saying that he may have not written the articles in question but he did actually sign and send this letter to a known anti-Semitic magazine.

He has a bit of a dicey past.


Paul may be an anti-Semite and a racist, but this letter does not make him look bad to me. It is good to take good ideas from wherever they exist. I don't agree with his stupid on fiscal or cash policy, but just because you and hitler feel the same way about baseball doesn't mean you killed a million jews.

The content of the letter did not bother me either.

His choice to write it to a known hate group does.

Ron Paul's solution to abortion is to only allow two branches of government to decide what happens with it. His own website says he would overturn Roe V Wade (which he does not have the authority to do), then to pass the Sanctity of Life Act, which bars the judiciary from applying judicial review to cases relating to abortion.

It's an odd stance, likely driven by his need to be an anti-choice libertardian, which isn't really possible.

Either no governmental body can, or any of them can.

What fucking difference does it make whether that governmental body is Federal or State?

The only difference is that in one, you aren't forcing women to travel across state lines in order to get medical treatment, just to make some people feel good about their state while accomplishing nothing towards their goal. That's why, in this one case, it's a federal law and should remain that way.

No, it's the difference between Federal and State. Obviously that line is so effing blurred for some of you ignorant folks it's hard to comprehend...

Considering he isn't running for a state office, doesn't work for a state office, etc etc. I fail to see how what the state does is his or the federal governments concern as long as it lies within the framework of the constitution.

The more relevant Ron Paul becomes, the louder come the TROLOLOs! It is really encouraging that Media toadies and their apologists hit Paul hard with this Newsletter nonsense where they really didn't in 2008. It means that he is even more of a threat this election cycle than the last! And he had a huge impact the last election!

Way to continuously make the Garths of the world melt down and resort to these pathetic trololololies!

Total meltdown, and all of the googly eyes emoticons and trolling in response doesn't change that fact.

Paul is right about the economy, right about the war in Iraq and Afghanistan, right about the Fed, right about 9/11....

But hey, household incomes have been dropping for 40 years while household debt and the cost of real goods has skyrocketed, so lets keep on voting for the status quo and then scratch our heads in wonder and bitch when the status quo is maintained!

I kinda get supporting RP because everyone else is just so bad. The supporters that really crack me up though are the apaulogists and those that actually buy the BS hook line and sinker. If you are too stupid to see the paul is more than a little crazy you have blinders on or are so stupid you will always be blind.

that's why i'm actually going to be kind of sad when Paul isn't in the running any more, his supporters are way more fun to watch rationalize their support (like in the evolution thread earlier today) grin
