RON PAUL ON DRUGS


This no doubt explains why his hands shake sometimes. And it certainly accounts for some of his ideas.

Must be. Must be.

You're just a troll now eh? All these years carefully spent cultivating what you think is a clever online persona and it all goes to crap when your little liberal ideas are challenged in a way you simply do not understand. Right? Troll?

There are many Ron Paul supporters on this site. Let's just all avoid old man ya-ta from now on. Don't feed the troll.

So, yes. Paul is a druggie. Good point. Moving on.

from another thread you wrote:

Quote:
(1) Gay Marriage
Any two adults should be able to form legally binding unions. What anyone calls it is of no concern to me.

(2) Abortion
I am deeply uncomfortable with it in normal cases.


(4) Legalizing Marijuana
Sure. Why not? Legalize it and tax it.



(6) Legalizing Prostitution
Prostitution will be around till they figure out how to put the brain implant thingie in where you just push a button and have endless orgasms and maybe even after that. So yeah, legalize it.



seems you and RP share the same ideas on these issues.

so what's the deal with ur trolling?

Yata is one of those people who doesn't want liberty, he just wants to complain that we don't have it, but when a candidate appears who really believes in and understand and intends to promote and implement the principles of liberty, Yata runs away.

Just ignore him. I'd be a miserable old fool if I were him too.

The video. It shows how sensible the freedom message is. I just wish he would change his stance on abortion.

I see NOT A ONE of you have anything to say about the RP puff piece either. Very Happy

I didn't watch it. The link didn't work for me.

At what point have I ever said we don't have liberty and complained about it? You are just as delusional this week as last week. Up the dosage.

The true test begins in 26 days (Jan. 3). I predict RP will get in the neighborhood of 10%, not because that many people like his ideas but because the GOP is absolutely bankrupt.

That's a strong interview for Ron Paul.

Ron Paul wrote:
I'd like to see all government out of the gay marriage question.


That's new. Its an important difference from what he had said before about States Rights. States should not be able to pass amendments that infringe on gays' rights to marriage/civil union/whatever two consenting adults want to call their relationshp.

Again, Ron Paul has a strong libertarian philosophy that is attractive. Its a shame he gives me no confidence in his ability to lead.

He's on the record saying that he personally abhors drug consumption.

However, as he sees it, the merits of supporting personal choice & genuine "freedom" (i.e. non-state intervention) outweigh any perceived downside.

To put it another way:

The state has no place in the bedrooms of the nation Confused
