Rand Paul on racism in business...
- Thread starter OPTIONAL777
- Start date
I really think people need to watch the interview a few times.
It is clear based on the interview that Rand:
Says he thinks racism is wrong, abhorrent.
Says he thinks institutional, i.e. public racism is wrong and should continue to be illegal.
Says he thinks private business act of racism is wrong and abhorrent...but should be legal. He would not agree that a business who practices racism should be held to the same standards as an institution.
Then he tries to rationalize private business racism the same as a free speech issue, or a 2nd amendment issue, etc.
The dude fucked up, it is going to be nothing but damage control from this point forward.
Not only that, this will bring out the crazies and wackos who will rally around Rand, further pushing him either further toward the extreme right, or abandoning the extreme right by moving to a more sane and moderate position.
Dude fucked up.
A simple "yes, I think it should continue to be illegal for a public restaurant to discriminate on the basis of race" was all he needed to say.
Dude fucked up...

Not hard to figure out where rand gets his beliefs from.I always knew ron paul was a piece of shit racist
You really don't get it, do you?
On the one hand Rand is saying refusing to serve on the basis of race is abhorrent, and with the other hand he says it should not be illegal to practice such vile racism simply because it is a private business...and not a public institution.
Owning a business open to the public doesn't make it okay to violate the Civil Right Act...

You want to point out exactly how that supports racism? I am baffled.

So what statement of his was racist? surely you can provide one, given the fact that you assume he is a racist.
You have absolutely nothing to back up anything you say, he argued for the rights of businesses to choose who they serve while saying i dont agree with the governments right to dictate such decisions.
So he is considered a "Racist" in your eyes. It is funny watching the way you guys operate. If someone doesnt agree with the goevernments choice as to who should be able to go to a restaraunt lets automatically assume he is a racist.
Funny, the only person practicing any racism in this thread is you. "Darkie", "cracker"? You are the only racist person in this whole debate. It's always the one pointing the finger that's the culprit... LOL!!! The bible beating preacher anti gay activist with a boy toy on the side, the catholic priest fucking children, and the fringe moonbat marxist who is the racist. Nothing new around here. LOL!!! LOL!!!

Its great this came out after he got the republican nomination
There's no fixes to letting the world know that you think the "No blacks allowed" signs should go back up
Dem's better take advantage of this,they couldn't have asked for a better gift in this race
