    Not even close. I love Che because he fought the evil of imperialism with all that he had and actually sacrificed himself in that goal. A lot of the dreadful things said about him were said by the evil imperialists and their talking head so it doesn't shock me that they are saying awful thing about the man and I don't necessarily believe what they say.

    protest killing of people,we should always do that. The idea with Ron Paul supporting BLM was that it was ambiguously using a race card to argue for more criminal justice reform. The whole thing got co-opted by people who wanted criminal justice reform, like Ron Paul, and then the establishment used it for its real goal and its intended creation which is divide and conquer, and now they are doing it in here by implying Ron Paul wants to divide and conquer because he said he supported BLM in the context of criminal justice reform. This thread is a $#@!ty thread.

    Anyone who doesnt understand Dr. Paul's stance on the militarization of the police, civil asset forfeitures, checkpoints, due process or the immorality of the "war on drugs", is either retarded or just a $#@!ing $#@!.

    I don't mind ignorance, its just easy to take anything anyone said out of context and make it mean anything you want. Trying to argue that thats what Ron Paul meant in a Ron Paul forum though means your going to have a bad time.

    Very disappointed in juleswin. "Loves" an anti-liberty, anti-freedom, pro-statist, pro-marxist, pro-totalitarian, mass murderer. You don't have to believe others, you need only read Che's own writings, his recorded words and actions. There is no excuse. It is intentional willful ignorance.

    There is no virtue in loving extreme evil because it opposed another wickedness.

    “This is a man who banned music, burned books, hated blacks, was an anti-semite, murdered those who disagreed with him, personally oversaw execution squads, and was in charge of a system that imprisoned gays solely for the crime of being gay. … One or two good deeds does not make up for wholesale slaughter, imprisonment, suppression of individual freedom, and extremism. …
    The type of man that will hold a gun to your head and pull the trigger unless you agree with him is not excused by the policies he is attempting to put in place, even if his desired ends are good. The type of man who will decide that you shouldn’t have the right to read what you want, and will destroy the books in your library to prevent competing ideas from spreading, is not fit to call himself human. It is animalistic. It is primitive. It is evil. … Che Guevara … was a murderous tyrant. … He deserves scorn, not respect. He was no different than the plantation owners in the south who lynched blacks because they believed they were defending their way of life. …" more

    "He helped free Cubans from the repressive Batista regime, only to enslave them in a totalitarian police state worst than the last. He was Fidel Castro’s chief executioner, a mass-murderer ... As Guevara wrote to a friend in 1957, ‘My ideological training means that I am one of those people who believe that the solution to the world’s problems is to be found behind the Iron Curtain.’…He was a great admirer of the Cultural Revolution [in China]. ... ‘It was [Che Guevara] and not Fidel who in 1960 invented Cuba’s first corrective work camp,’ or what the Americans would call a slave labor camp and the Russians called the gulag.” more

    “He vociferously opposed freedoms of religion, speech, press, assembly, protest, or any other rights not completely consistent with his North Korean-style communism. … Guevara fervently opposed any free elections? … Che was enraged when the Russians blinked during the 1962 Cuban missile crisis and withdrew their nuclear missiles … Guevara declar[ed] Cuba “a people ready to sacrifice itself to nuclear arms, that its ashes might serve as a basis for new societies.” … When put in charge of the Cuban economy at the start of Castro’s government, his uncompromising communist diktats ran it completely into the ground, from which it never recovered. …” more

    “Hatred as an element of struggle; unbending hatred for the enemy, which pushes a human being beyond his natural limitations, making him into an effective, violent, selective, and cold-blooded killing machine. This is what our soldiers must become …” ché Guevara

    All good movements get co-opted. The more a "movement" is strengthened by its early adherents, the more power its eventual co-opters will inherit and use for tyranny later. r3VOLution -> tea party -> alt-right -> trump.

    In better days, Molyneux argued forcefully that this is why you don't want a minarchy. The inevitable eventual maxarchy will use the enormous technological and production expansion caused by free markets to enslave and kill with unprecedented efficiency. The same kind of thing happens on a smaller proportion when a grass roots movement gets too big.

    the r3VOLution was a neat idea because it would have used the established tyranny machinery of the GOP to eliminate tyranny, reversing the usual mechanism.

    The civil rights movement (stretching back to Spartacus, Moses and perhaps before) and its offshoots like BLM come from a pure and beautiful place. It's silly to condemn the original movement because of what its inheritors did with it. It's more appropriate to denounce libertarians for not having the initiative and expertise to co-opt it themselves effectively.

    Partisan politics, misleading or emotional bill titles, and 4D chess theories are manifestations of the same lie—that the text of the Constitution, the text of legislation, and plain facts do not matter; what matters is what you want to believe. From this comes hypocrisy. And where hypocrisy thrives, virtue recedes. Without virtue, liberty dies. - Justin Amash, March 2018

    The worst part is that the statism that Guevara likes is a direct cause of the thing he claims to oppose (imperialism).

    It's like saying "I hate fat people but I wish everyone would eat cheesecake and pizza."

    Actually imperialism is just another form of statism.

However, I wish some of the black lives matter movement’s passion and energy was directed to ending abortion. Unborn black lives also matter.

    Note that later Ron Paul went on to criticize the Black Lives Matter organization for its socialist agenda. But he was early on board with the idea that there is an alarming increase in police brutality and African Americans are disproportionately affected.

    I will now return this forum to its regularly scheduled Trump worship and right wing identity politics.
    Ron Paul is against BLM in this clip. Basically he is saying that poverty doesn't give you the right to someone else's wealth and if we had property rights we wouldn't have all these problems. Pretty much what I've been saying and getting blasted for:

    So...did you not actually read what I wrote? Note everyone who is protesting the unjustified killings by police, which are disproportionately affecting blacks, support BLM Inc.

    Here is an example of pastors who prior to all of the hype supported Kaepernick by vowing to boycott the NFL and use the time to teach values to black youth.

    I haven't seen evidence that Bannon himself is a racist. I've looked for it. I have seen people on this forum who are clearly racists. Whenever someone uses a term like "white genocide" that person is engaging in right wing identity politics. People who support David Duke (and I've seen that here) are engaging in right wing identity politics. Bannon called the Charlottesville alt-right protesters "clowns." It was the $#@! Trump that said they were "good people."

    It depends upon what you identify as "BLM." Many people out protesting were definitely against the disproportionate use of law enforcement against blacks that Dr. Paul described. The co-opted BLM "movement"...not so much. But look at the "tea party." Ron Paul is called the godfather of the tea party and yet many of the so called "leaders" are drug warrior pro-interventionists.

Individual racism, ethnic stereotyping, and caricaturing is not something that can just be legislated away--it is just part of nature to want remain within one's own flock, so to speak.

    Making the focus of the debate about black versus government is not correct, it is government versus individuality that is the crux of the matter.
    Why are you against the free market? BET exists because there is a distinct culture in America that came from a different part of the world than the majority. And people who complain about "black" culture but don't complain about St Patrick's Day or Octoberfest or Cinco De Mayo or Italian food are, in my opinion, being wilfully blind at best and downright hypocritical at worst. Besides, at this point "blacks" don't even own BET.

    In the context of police brutality, Ron Paul was correct in acknowledging that it does disproportionately affect blacks. There is a wider issue that it affects everyone too.

    No these are not the same thing at all. St. Patrick's day and Octoberfest is about the heritage of a nation (Ireland and Germany), it is not intended to be race specific. Somewhat comparable to Mardi Gras/Fat Tuesday.

    Unless they had immigrated form elsewhere, blacks are themselves Americans, they are not "African Americans", and they really need to stop viewing themselves as such.

    Cinco De Mayo is a misunderstood holiday that is not even celebrated in Mexico (with exception to one small city where the French skirmish ensued.)

    There is no problem with respects to enjoying or inventing Italian food, a there is no problem enjoying Thai, Creole, or Soul food. Ergo, such cuisines are respective to the nationalistic origins of the recipes and has nothing to due with race per say.

    There is however a huge issue with creating a racially divisive cable channel. Imagine the outrage of having a White Entertainment Channel or magazine--such would be called out as being KKK inspired, regardless, and would be quickly shutdown by the FCC.

    Who the actual owners and board-members of BET are it not very relevant; however, their actions and messages are--which is lets remind people about race, keep it at the forefront, and upkeep stereotypes and prejudices.

    It was a good read until I got here.

    Who are you talking about?
    We have a growing demographic of anti-American, right-wing extremists, working in opposition to the site mission. Because libertarianism permits for their presence, they tend to congregate in libertarian circles, though they do misrepresent it wholly. One of the most fundamental aspects of our mission-supporting activism efforts is valuing electoral politics and the legitimacy of the US constitution. One specific disruption that seems to be growing and consumes much of our time are the attempts to undermine the value of electoral politics or the legitimacy of the US constitution. This undermines the site mission, to be clear.

    You would be one of these peckerheads. Though there are others. For now.

    As far as the Trump stuff, that's unavoidable. He's President.

    When NFL kneelers, Al Sharpton and some other seasonal BLM'rs were silent, this article supporting BLM/ALM without creating racial divisions was published by Ron Paul Institite:



    Welcome to the United Police States of America, Where Police Shoot First & Ask Questions Later

    November 4, 2013
    “There are always risks in challenging excessive police power, but the risks of not challenging it are more dangerous, even fatal.”
    —Hunter S. Thompson, Kingdom of Fear: Loathsome Secrets of a Star-Crossed Child in the Final Days of the American Century
    These shootings are occurring with such frequency now that they are quickly forgotten, lost in the morass of similarly heartbreaking, tragic incidents. It was barely a month ago, for example, that police in Washington, DC, shot and killed 34-year-old Miriam Carey after she collided with a barrier leading to the White House, then fled when pursued by a phalanx of gun-wielding police and cop cars. Carey’s 1-year-old daughter was in the backseat. Seventeen gun shots later, Carey was dead and her toddler motherless. It was what is known as a “bad shoot.” As James Mulvaney, a professor of law and police science, explains: “A ‘good shoot’ in police lingo is one in which officers use deadly force to prevent a suspect from inflicting serious harm. A ‘bad shoot’ is one in which there might have been a nonlethal alternative.”

    How should we as a society respond when we hear about the Las Vegas police officer who shot an unarmed man at a convenience store whom he “thought” was a homicide suspect, or the Los Angeles cop who shot an unarmed man seen leaving a convenience store where an ATM had been robbed of $40 or the DC cops who killed a young mother in a hail of gunfire? As John Grant notes for Counterpunch: “The ignominious and unnecessary public killing of Miriam Carey should be a human marker that triggers our cultural meaning machine to honestly consider what’s wrong with the picture of a howling pack of cops shooting down a troubled young mother … like a dog.”

    If ever there were a time to de-militarize and de-weaponize local police forces, it’s now. The same goes for scaling back on the mindset adopted by cops that they are the law and should be revered, feared and obeyed. As for the idea that citizens must be compliant or risk being treated like lawbreakers, that’s nothing more than authoritarianism with a badge. As Grant points out: “As the public killing of Miriam Carey should make clear, a significant part of the problem is cops and the pack mentality they too often resort to.
