Default Re: My reservations regarding Ron Paul...

[ QUOTE ]
As someone who is adamantly pro-choice, I agree entirely with Ron Paul's position on abortion.

The federal government has demonstrated itself to be very, very bad at "protecting" civil liberties, and we have a War on Drugs, a patriot act, and UIGEA laws to show for it. If you want liberty, you have to be willing to go the full mile and not ask for protection of the practices that you happen to like. If you're pro-choice and your state is going wacky, deal with the state, not the federation.

What makes you think you'll have any more luck dealing with a state bureaucracy than you do with a federal level one? Violence is wrong within this arbitrary enclosure but if you make it into a smaller arbitrary enclosure then violence becomes ok? Love it or leave it becomes a valid argument if you only have to leave the state not the country?
