I have a personal belief that you never have to give up liberty for security. You can still provide security without sacrificing our Bill of Rights.

When one person can initiate war, by its definition, a republic no longer exists.

If you ever can bring about revolutionary changes, two things would be required: young people would have to be involved and you would need music.

Who's married and who isn't married. I have my standards but I shouldn't have to impose my standards on others. Other people have their standards and they have no right to impose their marriage standards on me.

The reality is that our military presence on foreign soil is as offensive to the people that live there as armed Chinese troops would be if they were stationed in Texas. We would not stand for it here, but we have had a globe-straddling empire and a very intrusive foreign policy for decades that incites a lot of hatred and resentment toward us.

What can you do? More and more Americans are carrying a gun in the car. An ex-cop I know advises that if you have to use a gun on a youth, you should leave the scene immediately, disposing of the wiped off gun as soon as possible.

The Fourth Amendment is clear we should be secure in our persons, houses, papers, and effects, and all warrants must have probable cause. Today the government operates largely in secret, while seeking to know everything about our private lives - without probable cause and without a warrant.
Ron Paul

Liberty has meaning only if we still believe in it when terrible things happen and a false government security blanket beckons.
Ron Paul
Image
Without precise meanings behind words, politicians and elites can obscure reality and condition people to reflexively associate certain words with positive or negative perceptions. In other words, unpleasant facts can be hidden behind purposely meaningless language.
Ron Paul

My message is simple - freedom works a lot better than the authoritarian style of government.
Ron Paul

If global warming is because of weather changes - which a lot of people believe - there's not much we can do to change the weather pattern.
Ron Paul
Image
There is only one kind of freedom and that's individual liberty. Our lives come from our creator and our liberty comes from our creator. It has nothing to do with government granting it.

Given the inefficiencies of what DC laughingly calls the 'criminal justice system,' I think we can safely assume that 95 percent of the black males in that city are semi-criminal or entirely criminal.

The most basic principle to being a free American is the notion that we as individuals are responsible for our own lives and decisions

Ideas are the only things that count, and politicians are, for the most part, pretty much irrelevant.

Secession is a deeply American principle. This country was born through secession.

Our Constitution, which was intended to limit government power and abuse, has failed.

When one gets in bed with government, one must expect the diseases it spreads.
