French "economist" think Ron Paul is a dangerous man

If I'm remembering correctly, Ron Paul might have mentioned one time about the Virginia Tech shootings and how if law abiding gun owners were permitted to carry on campus that someone who had a gun may have been able to fight back against the shooter, saving many lives as a result.

We would take them on the bus, perhaps trade that ole 410 for a 22 and go out after school to shoot. I remember as a kid many times bringing home something for ma to throw on the table for dinner. I'll never get the mindset of today. Guns keep society civil.
I just picked up another rifle today. (nice one too)
I stopped by the local wally world to see if they had much in the way of ammo and you wouldn't believe the conversations going on in the sporting goods sections. People are flat out talking about war against our own gooberment. And making no bones about it. Nothing quiet or discrete either.
I did hear one guy say something like what part of europe were they from? The part where we saved their A$$, or the part where we kicked their A$$? and a few others laughed at him. Even the store clerk was in on it all.
I snagged a couple of boxes of loads that seem tough to find and got out.
I guess if you think that standing up for, and returning to our roots and constitutional government is dangerous, well then, everyone's entitled to their opinion and I'm all for being dangerous.

I love my country
I am appalled by my government

In Tennesee this used to be an extracurricular activity from my understanding.

As a kid I remember my cousins in East Texas used to keep deer rifles in their gun racks in the parking lot at their high school.

Anti-gun hysteria has got to stop...people need to get a grip.

Ron Paul is dangerous, even Bruno said so.

Maybe he had read this article and did not understand it ?

I just happened to read about this case in Judge Napolitano's book "The Constitution in Exile" and since it took place in Texas and was a rare recent example of upholding the Constitutional constraints on federal policy - maybe RP is on record as supporting it. Below is my brief summary of the case:

In 1992 a student in Texas was arrested for bringing a gun to school. He was brought up on charges by the state of Texas and intended on pleading guilty. However the federal govt convinced the state to drop the charges so he could be tried for a violation of the federal "Gun-Free School Zones Act". He was easily convicted, however appealed the decision on grounds that the law is unconstitutional. A circuit court of appeals reversed the conviction and the Supreme Court upheld their reversal 5-4. Because of federal govt grandstanding and meddling outside of their jurisdiction, a guilty person walked free.

While someone could try to interpret support of this decision as "supporting guns in schools" that is incredibly ignorant. This is a matter of legal jurisdiction and delegation of power.

if you feel you have the right to rule others and amass wealth skimmed from the producers in society.

That kind of 'danger' I can deal with.

It's the present system I'm having trouble with...

I may not know the truth, but I know when I'm being lied to...

Ingesting poisons at every turn. Give me one hour with this man and an internet connection or 2 hours face-to-face without interruption and he will awaken or chose to die.

This eye for eye has left them blind.

Since when has Doctor Paul ever told anyone what to do? It is not proper decorum and not liberty/freedom loving.

Ron Paul is a Federalist Minimalist. Let us work out our own problems. Let us grow up. Can you decalcify?

would have been able to stop the shootings at some point. This was in the same vain as the pilots on the 9/11 flights. He argued that if the pilots had access to arms, high jacking could have been averted.

Ron Paul will most certainly support the right of French economists to send their kids to school where people aren't allowed to carry guns. The question is, is the French economist equally generous towards those who wish to send their kids to schools where they, or the teachers, are allowed to carry them?

either didn't support, or supported the repeal of a bill that doesn't allow guns within 100yds of a school or something like that.

It is completely one of those things where they take it out of context and distort it. Like when you hear campaign comercials "so and so supports murduring kids" or something like that. Its laughable. Supprised this guy didn't go with the Ron Paul is Racist thing.

understand that the reason someone goes to a school or mall to shoot up the place is because that he knows that there are many unarmed people there.

For instance, Does anyone go into the police station and shoot up the place? Of course not, because he knows that there are many armed people there.

It's pretty simple to understand actually.
