I cant believe my Govt would INTENTIONALLY harm me ....... A not so famous quote I love to return to. Now for a Rand Paul quote;“As more and more people become aware of how overcriminalized the law and regulatory system of the United States is, they become aware of just how easily it is for them to be carted off to jail for innocuous behavior,” Mr. Erickson said. “That necessarily increases distrust of the system over all.” Another question raised by the unrest in Ferguson — one that poses far more discomfort for Republicans — is how race plays into unequal treatment under the justice system. On this delicate issue, Mr. Paul went a step further than many other conservatives this week. With a system so broken, he wrote, it is no wonder black people in Ferguson feel singled out. He added a personal aside. “If I had been told to get out of the street as a teenager, there would have been a distinct possibility that I might have smarted off,” Mr. Paul wrote. “But I wouldn’t have expected to be shot.”
