Why sure we should believe you. Calling whites hateful but saying it isn't racist makes you believable right?

Maybe this isn't covered in Texas... but take a look at this mathematical concept

Yet you never mentioned other races and you have concluded, in your twisted racist mentality that those following Paul are racist.

Again read up on the Redeem Act.

This is true but has nothing to do with your racist comments. It's not proof. Your racists comments are.

Another racist comment by you. Good to see you show your true colors.

Yet you've offered no proof his states rights stance is about defending slavery and defending Jim Crow. The truth is he's never defended Jim Crow.

Open carry, why that's racist. The Federal government has a small defined role and anything not covered in the Constitution is a racist states rights agenda?

Only to those like yourself with a twisted racist agenda. Blacks voting for Obama aren't hateful yet whites who vote for Paul are. Guess you forgot to mention that blacks are hateful to right? But that's not the case in your racist post otherwise you would have said it. Your argument that Rand Paul has many racist followers and his policies are racist is dishonest. You added 2+2 and got 7

In a nutshell -You can't argue on policy because your chosen ones policies, little different than Bushes, stink so you falsely play the race card

Default Paul

In some cases I do not think some are ready for his to the point views. Everyone is use to Obama and Clinton dancing around the issues, instead of diving into the issue directly.

Rand Paul scares Dems and Hilary (more so) because he does not pulls punches. You know where he stands. Agee or Not.

As for the constitution as it exists TODAY applying differently to men and women... well don't take my word for it.
You said the Constitution is racist. I proved it isn't. If you now want to say government discriminated back then and didn't apply the Constitution correctly at times for everyone, then I agree 100 percent.

You applied something to Rand Paul that isn't true and have no proof. Gee go figure.

Government has a defined role and should not interfere in private business. That is a moral issue and government isn't moral. Government doesn't own ones work or ones business.

No doubt the tyranny of our own government in the early days was no different than what we fought against Great Britain. The compromise for the slave states should never have been done. They gave up a little bit of freedom for security which was exactly the opposite of what Benjamin Franklin said.

Well that was a waste of time. Honestly you could have just written "Nuh Uh!" and been done with it.

So back to the topic at hand. Here's a video of Rand Paul explicitly saying that whites-only lunch counters should be legal:

Show proof he's okay with businesses discriminating. You can't because he isn't. Keep trying.

What next the Civil Rights Act was responsible for undoing governments own Jim Crow laws and not the Civil Rights Activists? The problem with you is you want to use force and coercion to get what you want while stomping on the rights of the individual.

You can't possibly be this dense. Here's the quote from the video:

Quote:
PAUL: I like the Civil Rights Act in the sense that it ended discrimination in all public domains, and I’m all in favor of that.
INTERVIEWER: But?
PAUL: You had to ask me the "but." I don't like the idea of telling private business owners — I abhor racism. I think it’s a bad business decision to exclude anybody from your restaurant — but, at the same time, I do believe in private ownership. But I absolutely think there should be no discrimination in anything that gets any public funding, and that’s most of what I think the Civil Rights Act was about in my mind.
He's very clearly saying that he doesn't personally suppor 'whites only' lunch counters, but he supports the right of racists to practice such discrimination in business.


Here's another good example where Randy Paul courageously comes out in favor of discrimination in HOUSING too:

Quote:
Indeed, Rand Paul, in a 2002 letter to the Bowling Green Daily News, made a similar point about the U.S. Fair Housing Act, saying it "ignores the distinction between private and public property." He added: “Decisions concerning private property and associations should in a free society be unhindered. As a consequence, some associations will discriminate.
Rand Paul’s rewriting of his own remarks on the Civil Rights Act - The Washington Post


So there you have it folks, Rand Paul is standing up for whites-only lunch counters AND for legalized discrimination in housing. How many times can you deny his plainly spoken words, his words in plain text, his associations in public campaigns? Rand Paul is a racist. Period.

You just proved what I said. He is against racism but property rights cannot be stomped on. Only someone with a twisted agenda would miss that.

Unlike you, most people aren't dumb enough to fall for your twisted agenda. Rand isn't the racist one here.
Still waiting for you to prove Rand is racist. I'll put this in again and when you respond make sure you ignore this again.

Some people have difficulty with the concept that just because something is legal, or might be constitutionally legal, it doesn't mean it's the right thing to do.

The ludicrous anti-Paul screeds here are akin to saying every democrat wants to stick those scissors into the skull of a halfway born child in a partial birth abortion.

You guys just love yanking viable children from the womb and slaughtering them, don't you.

Same logic, or lack thereof.
