Freedom Ride

United States interests are global. Therefore we must be stationed globally. We cultivate and protect our allies, defend our free enterprise interests, and fight terrorism. We can not be free at home if there is violence abroad threatening our interests.

Paul is a nutjob. Simple as that.

Ron Paul is a complete racist and is just about the nuttiest candidate out there in any party. I would vote for Obama before Dr. Demento – Ron Paul.

Paul thinks the majority of blacks are criminals – stated it in his own newsletters over and over again.

Paul thinks Bush did 9/11 as an inside job. Waaaaaayyyy nutty.

Paul thinks America deserved to be attacked on 9/11. Said it himself many, many times.

Paul claims to be a strict constitutionalist, but does not understand the basics of how it works.

Paul would generate warfare all over the globe by bringing back US troops from every overseas base. We provide a lot of security and stability in the world.

Paul thinks America should have never fought the Germans in WWII.

Paul thinks Iran should be allowed to build nukes and they don’t threaten anyone.

Paul thinks meth, marijuana, cocaine, heroin and LSD should all be totally legal because the Constitution says so. What a lunatic.

Paul is just about as insane as they come. He is racist and frightening in so many other ways too.

Rate the idea of having government sanctioned "Free Speech Zones" or "First Amendment Zones" near political landmarks like the "Liberty (cough) Bell" or a Political rally?

Things like OWS make me realize, closer to 10 is most appropriate nowadays.

is freedom a state of mind? if so what are some examples that represents this.

I’d go further and say that freedom is the no-state of mind.The mind creates its own states and it will react to them and serve them and so becomes bound by them.What is boundless and free is what i refer to as the witness of the mind,the ground of the mind or the nature of mind.The states of mind move across it like clouds move across the sky so it is like the sky which remains peaceful,still and clear and therefore unaffected by anything that passes through it.

I am reading "The Need For Roots" by Simone Weil and this lady couldn’t be more confusing about her points. I’m reading the section about freedom of opinion, but I can’t tell if she believes groups should have freedom of expression or not. Any help?

"There is no such thing as a collective exercise of the intelligence. It follows that no group can legitimately claim freedom of expression, because no group has the slightest need of it."

Quote from Simone Weil’s book. Hope this helps. See you in class. Anonymous.
