No radicals among Ron Paul backers
I'm glad to see the state retracting the militia report. Fed up with our two-party system, last year I met with a group of Ron Paul supporters.
No one impressed me as being radical, or who might be with a militia group. In fact I knew one of the attendees. A part-time college teacher, who happens to be one of the nicest people you'd ever meet.
When you ask him how he's doing, its always the same answers, "couldn't be better, great," etc. Always upbeat. If we used him as an example to profile, we should all be Ron Paul supporters.
Or if we follow this profiling thought, perhaps we should profile all Democrats as wife beaters in light of the New York state representative who was arrested for assaulting his girlfriend, recently, or Republican businessmen as ones who'll steal from you, in light of the Enron mess of several years back.
Of course how many countless times has a representative from either party been in trouble for DUI or being involved with prostitutes, etc.
Perhaps law enforcement should be concentrating on the major parties in light of this thinking.
Had (Gov.) Nixon upheld this report, it might have given support to the militia radicals argument regarding government trampling on our rights.
