Ron Paul: 95 percent of black men are ‘criminal.’Kos highlights a 1992 article from Ron Paul’s self-published newsletter, The Ron Paul Political Report:
Indeed, it is shocking to consider the uniformity of opinion among blacks in this country. Opinion polls consistently show that only about 5% of blacks have sensible political opinions, i.e. support the free market, individual liberty, and the end of welfare and affirmative action…. Given the inefficiencies of what D.C. laughingly calls the “criminal justice system,” I think we can safely assume that 95% of the black males in that city are semi-criminal or entirely criminal.
If similar in-depth studies were conducted in other major cities, who doubts that similar results would be produced? We are constantly told that it is evil to be afraid of black men, but it is hardly irrational. Black men commit murders, rapes, robberies, muggings, and burglaries all out of proportion to their numbers.

Old news. Ron Paul didn't write that. Some guy who worked for him snuck that in. It has since been fixed.
Then again DC does have the highest crime rate and murder rate. |

Hey Nesaie, can you show me a link to the initial "fix" or retraction from the Paul campaign?
Thanks! |

| It's Ron Paul's newsletter and therefore "Ron Paul, approves of this message" might as well be stamped on it. |

He is wrong... It's more like 85%
I once posted the demographics of the cities with the highest rate of crime, DC, Detroit, Camden, etc..., and they ALL had a black majority...
Yeah, it's just a coincidence. |

Editors’ Note: The Ron Paul Vid-Lash
By The New York Times
A post in The Medium that appeared on Monday about the Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul and his purported adoption by white supremacist and neo-Nazi groups contained several errors. Stormfront, which describes itself as a “white nationalist” Internet community, did not give money to Ron Paul’s presidential campaign; according to Jesse Benton, a spokesman for Paul’s campaign, it was Don Black, the founder of Stormfront, who donated $500 to Paul. The original post also repeated a string of assertions by Bill White, the commander of the American National Socialist Workers Party, including the allegation that Paul meets regularly “with members of the Stormfront set, American Renaissance, the Institute for Historic Review and others” at a restaurant in Arlington, Va. Paul never attended these dinners, according to Benton, who also says that Paul has never knowingly met Bill White. Norman Singleton, a congressional aide in Paul’s office, says that he met Bill White at a dinner gathering of conservatives several years ago, after which Singleton expressed his indignation at the views espoused by White to the organizer of the dinner. The original post should not have been published with these unverified assertions and without any response from Paul

of course they fear him, he wants to return the power to the people where it belongs. our country was originally setup to be run by ordinary people like you and me, not lifelong career politicians where you have to pay $35,000 to even run in any presidential election. used to be..a carpenter was pres for a while, then when he was done he went back to every day life being a carpenter or whatever..that way whoever was in power had incentive to do good for the country because theyd have to live in the reality of what they did when they were in power. |
