I read the article and saw nothing that isn’t dead on true. What do you disagree with?
You should ask Ron Paul- he is the one who now is saying he never wrote them, didn’t know about them, and disavows what was written in them.
Apparently, he doesn’t want to be associated with it.
(was he lying when they were written in his name, when he said he wrote it in 96, or when he denied writing it in 2007 through the present)?
"We don't think a child of 13 should be held responsible as a man of 23. That's true for most people, but black males age 13 who have been raised on the streets and who have joined criminal gangs are as big, strong, tough, scary and culpable as any adult and should be treated as such."
This flies in the face of both the Constitution as well as the core of Conservative values. First, it completely opposes the concept of equal opportunity under the law and the equal protection clause. It is implying that the government should create separate categories of laws for separate classes of people based on the government's classification (in this case race). It does have the law judge a person based not only on that person's actions, but instead, partial judgment has already been rendered based on the person's race. According to Paul, because this suspect is black, he is already being held to a higher threshold of the law than a white person who is accused of the same thing. The law isn't judging action but who the person is.
Second, this flies in the face of the Conservative value of individualism. You are not a governemnt category, you are you. Your success or failure derives from your individual actions. It is liberals who put everyone into these little boxes and tell you that you are limited based on what box they decided to put you in.
That point of disagreement can be carried forward to a lot of the things written here. Paul is pulling the democrat or David Duke game of judging people based on their race, not on them as an individual.
