Great Job! It is amazing how most voters will change to paul when presented with the facts. It seems only those who have been infected with the msm biases really have trouble with it.

[affa]

would bringing up Perry's history as executioner move her in the right direction? (though i do realize she's supporting Ron, getting her completely off the Perry boat would be nice)

Welcome to the forums! And thanks for waking up your dear mother. She did a great job homeschooling you!

Great job. Thanks for your hard work.

Great story. Can you post the link to the vvs transcript? I want to send it to someone who says videos are too long to watch.

[Okie RP fan]

Excellent.

We should all know by now how important it is for us to work on our family and friends toward supporting Dr. Paul.

Just because Perry was the governor when executions in his state took place doesn't make him an "executioner."

There was a specific case where many think he executed an innocent man. Don't know the details.

Sorry, took too long posting that last reply and didn't see this.

Perhaps not; but he doesn't need to be so happy about it either. Executions -- right or wrong -- shouldn't be a cheering, fist-pumping occasion.

These type of conversations between informed Ron Paul supporters and their family and friends is our key to winning this!

Texas has something known as the Law of Parties (aka Felony Murder Rule (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felony_murder_rule_%28Texas%29)). From a non-wiki source:


... a person can be criminally responsible for another’s actions if that person acts with "the intent to promote or assist the commission of the offense" and "solicits, encourages, directs, aids, or attempts to aid the other person to commit the offense, whether the defendant actually caused the death of the deceased or did not actually cause the death of the deceased but intended to kill the deceased or another or anticipated that a human life would be taken. source (http://www.lairdcarlson.com/celldoor/00603/Foster00603TXandtheLawOfParties.htm)

By Texas standards, you don't actually have to kill to be put to death for murder. Food for thought.
