Obamalaw next up on the agenda.
What an idiot....what a total colossally misguided over handled pandering smurf boy.
The Clinton, illegal aliens, IRS, banksters, and similar 'groups' get a free pass.
Not for, average Joe.
Could you change this to a news item? It appears on The Hill’s blog, but is really fairly significant news.
I thought Pander bears came from China.

That's everywhere and affects everyone.
Paul is correct about Garner selling “loosie” cigarettes. What kind of nanny-state do we live in where Governments at the same time both rail against tobacco, but must protect it because they need the tax money?
In totalitarian states, everything is controlled and everything is potentially a crime.
Laws like those against everything from murder to traffic violations? Because blacks violate those at far higher rates than whites, I guess those laws are all racist too.
Paul is right about ending the WOD, eliminating asset seizures etc. But he should do so on constitutional grounds. He’s wrong to make it a race issue and to ignore higher crime rates for all kinds of crime by blacks.
So the policing issues in America are fixed, if loosy cigarettes become legal in NYC.
I don’t think so.
I don’t get it. Is Paul saying that the set of laws that apply to a black don’t apply to me because I’m white? Or the other way ‘round?
Current criminal behavior creates a situation like self-segregation.
We seem to be headed for not holding blacks accountable to any laws. 0bama’s not.
Yes, we should do something about it. Up the police presence to reduce crime, use our welfare policies to promote fatherhood instead of discouraging it, and establish school choice — especially in poor areas. And encourage businesses to land there.
Jobs, families, education, and public safety will be the things that change the situation for minorities and the poor. So let’s go for that.
What reason do we have for politicians telling the police they have to take someone down for selling a cigarette that’s not taxed,” he said. “
That never happened. The police took the man down for resisting arrest, posibly disorderly conduct etc. The person took steps to make a minor issue escalate into a deadly situation.
He is an asshole.
To put it simply, "It's the government, stupid." As Reagan said, the government can't solve our problem. The government IS the problem.
While, I am with him on lots and lots of issues, (and frankly I don't see anything he is saying here as completely false) I find that reverse racism, the soft bigotry of low expectations and lawlessness in minority communities to be a huge problem. I guess he is planning on ignoring this problem for now.
He is obviously and openly pandering to the black vote here. Whether that is a good idea or a bad idea, I don't know. Democrats were able to capture vast swaths of the south on the advocacy of segregation. While it wasn't totally against their ideology, it didn't really completely jive with the rest of their platform. Never the less, by throwing that bone out there to the one issue racists in the south, they took over state after state. If he can take the basic premise of "The problem IS the government" and apply it to the one issue black community, I applaud him. It might just work.
I just hope he doesn't have to abandon any principals in order to do it.
but we must never let the animals run the cities by their violence....
Gentle giant was robbing a store, assaulting the owner, and then questioned, attacked a cop....that can not be ignored...
Maryland “Freak State” PING!
Liberarians love their drugs it seems.
