"Under the Constitution, it was never meant to be a federal police force," Paul continued. "Not even an FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigation), limited only to investigations, was not accepted until this century.
Yet, today, fueled by the federal government's misdirected 'war on drugs,' radical environmentalism and the aggressive behavior of the 'Nanny State,' we have witnessed a massive buildup of a virtual army of armed regulators prowling the states where they have no authority.
The sacrifice of individual responsibility and the concept of local government by majority of American citizens has permitted the army of bureaucrats to thrive."
They have the authority, maybe some don't like it but there needs to be a certain amount of control, rational people understand the need but the far right thinks we should just have chaos and things will some how work themselves out. People on the honor system never seem to work. So what's the alternative if we did away with all these federal agencies that supposedly don't belong.

"The fact that some geniuses were laughed at does not imply that all who are laughed at are geniuses. They laughed at Columbus, they laughed at Fulton, they laughed at the Wright brothers. But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown."

That's a self-defeating point if you ask me.
Yeah not all fools end up being right, but not all of them end up being wrong either...
Reagan was a clown, he made amnesty en vogue, further obliterated the budget and expanded the national deficit and started an unlawful war on drugs.
Anything he did related to the BLM in that fashion isn't a surprise.
He was more or less a statist as well, he isn't anything I would consider in a good candidate then or now.
Moderator cut: personal attack
So which president in you mind wasn't a "statist?"
