Btw, I love how people think that Conservatives and that idiot Rand Paul all of a sudden actually gives a damn about Black people.
Here are some of Rand Paul's greatest hits:
When he admit that he doesn't fully support the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and wouldn't intervene if Martin Luther King Jr. was denied service at a Woolworths:
"I would not go to that Woolworth’s, and I would stand up in my community and say it’s abhorrent. um… But the hard part, and this is the hard part about believing in freedom is, if you believe in the First Amendment, for example, you to, for example– most good defenders will believe in abhorrent groups standing up and saying awful things, and we’re here at the bastion of newspaperdom (sic) and I’m sure you believe in the First Amendment, so I’m sure you understand people can say bad things. It’s the same way with other behaviors. In a free society we will tolerate boorish people who have abhorrent behavior, but if we’re civilized people we publicly criticize that and don’t belong to those groups or associate with those people."
When he blamed Eric Garner’s death on New York City's cigarette tax:
“I think it is important to know that some politician put a tax of $5.85 on a pack of cigarettes so that driven cigarettes underground by making them so expensive. But then some politician also had to direct the police say, ‘hey we want you arresting people for selling a loose cigarette.’ For someone to die over breaking that law, there is really no excuse for it. But I do blame the politicians. We put our police in a difficult situation with bad laws.”
When he responded to Barack Obama's State of the Union:
"We are the party that adheres to the Constitution. We will not let the liberals tread on the Second Amendment! We will fight to defend the entire Bill of Rights. We will stand up against excessive government power wherever we see it. We cannot and will not allow any President to act as if he were a king. We will not let any President use executive orders to impinge on the Second Amendment."
(Oddly enough all the shyt that Randy boy said applies to Trump's bullshyt right now, but old Randy ain't standing up).
