Technically, he is correct. But I don’t know of one “Freedom” I have given up, or been asked to give up since 9/11. There has been no crackdown on Speech, Arms, Religion, the Press, Assembly, Association, Double Jeopardy, Speedy trial or any other of the Bill of Rights in the Constitution. Not a single one. Maybe a tiny bit of Privacy, but not so that I have even noticed it. If they get out of hand, then they need be smacked with is easy to do through the legislature and the courts.
Ron Paul is NOT an evil man. He is a very principled liberterian with a LEW ROCKWELL streak. I think we’ll do better with his followers with convincing rhetoric and reason instead of name calling and rolling our eyes like the left does. Challenge his ideas directly for the best result.

Here is a comment from the article posted:

Thanks for covering the rally. I was there and we had a capacity crowd from Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana and Michigan who are strong supporters of Ron Paul because of his integrity and honesty.

I have to admit though, I don't remember him saying that about road accidents. I do know he pointed out that we bombed Iraq's bridges, are now paying for them to be rebuilt, while our own bridges are crumbling.

People on this thread are making a mountain out of a molehill.
