People don't like to stop to wonder why the terrorists picked planes...maybe because they too knew that planes are one of the places where everyone is disarmed.....I remember when folks with carry permits could take their guns on planes as long as they notified the airline in advance of their intention to do so. Sadly, those days are gone (only temporarily, I hope) because the average person has been taught for for a couple of decades to look to the government to save them. Ron Paul seems to be one of the few elected officials who understand that we must take some responsibility for protecting ourselves and he wants to make sure we are allowed to do it. He's also one of only a handful of members of congress to consistently get an A+ rating from Gun Owners of America as well as the American Taxpayers Union. He stands for most everything that REAL conservatives and constitutionalists have been praying for and, yet, due to the warmongering that takes place in the media and some feeling that we must 'save face' in the middle east, they are the very ones who come out and decry him now. I just don't get it.
I like Ron from a Constitution perspective, I do not think he would make a good POTUS though.
