Ron Paul 2012 Containment Thread - Page 234 - Politics and Economics

Just shows the absurd length the government is going through to "provide safety". The only thing this is going to do is make your average person sit in traffic for hours on the occasion that the highway is having this. Anyone with anything to hide will just take backroads and avoid the risk. They won't find a damn thing and waste more money in the process.

The only reason people like you object to these checkpoints is because you hate the freedom that Americans have.

The intelligence shows that the TSA checkpoints will be regarded as liberators.

We have good reason to believe that weapons of mass destruction are being transported on Tennessee highways at this very minute.

then when someone tops them they have to give it up to the new WINNER. this could be a fun game for our olympiads, and the crowds they draw.

Actually I heard the Flint police in MI are stopping motorists on I-69 with drug dogs and the like.

BTW the worst thing you can do at this point is pull a U-turn.

"I'm a good Constitutional American just like you, Dr. Paul. You're really OK with Iran blowing up the world though huh? That's where we differ."

That's what I predict. And I bet he asks him about not going on O'Reily, to give RP the chance to say how Hannity is more fair.

LOL Hannity talking about an "Islamic caliphate". Yeah, some people may want that but these war mongers never address how the **** are they going to achieve that when we have all the bombs and guns?

Crack or meth also can make someone extremely violent, paranoid, etc. There is no alcohol or weed or shrooms equivalent.

If they put one of these in my area I will organize as large a group of non- criminals I can to approach the checkpoint and make the last legal U- Turn possibl

lol, no. Maybe the ones from '79-'99 were useful, but nowadays the main players have started sitting them out. Guiliani and McCain were no-shows in '07, Romney and Perry didn't participate in the one this year.

Ron Paul H.R. 2533: Sanctity of Life Act

Ron Paul's hardcore pro-life stance on display.

Not a fan of this. Just thought I would share it with everyone in this thread.
