Ron Paul Twitter Account

And this has what to do with his tweet? Please refrain from the accusations that those who are not deeply saddened by a nonchalant killer being killed as dancing on the graves of military men. I happen to have many people in my family who were killed or wounded severely in different conflicts. My uncle won't even speak on what he's done and is now more religious than the preachers. He didn't come back from Vietnam bragging about people he killed or saying that he only wished he could have killed more. Not then, not now. Chris Kyle is the epitomy of the desensitization and callousness that can be bred into a particularly receptive individual. May God have mercy on his soul.

I guess you guys will only believe it was him if he tweets out

@sailing damn right it was me and I'll tweet it again.

except then you would argue Ron wouldn't say "damn".

on twitter? No he wouldn't. He catches himself on language. At least, once, recently he narrowly refrained from calling an idiotic position 'crap', and changed it to 'stuff' so I would doubt the tweet :p

In the unlikely (to me) occurrence that it was him (given the guy seems to have a background I wasn't aware of) I'm sure he'd explain it, but it sure seems nothing like him.

And it doesn't have the REP tag as being from him.

You're one of at least a dozen people on this forum who could do a far, far better job than this. It's frustrating.
 
Guys, this is Ron Paul's "47 Percent" comment. Only it will be treated much worse because it involves a veteran who is widely regarded as a hero. Pretty much any Navy SEAL is going to be treated like a hero so get used to it. Also, our movement doesn't have that wide enough mainstream appeal yet for people to rush to the defense of Ron. I don't even think this statement is one you can defend. Instead of attacking the SEAL, why not attack the general military industrial complex which may have indoctrinated the poor soul. Don't say he's a fool and a government killer or any of those negative terms. Ron's 2012 campaign was a very legitimate one which attracted many new voters. Saying stuff like this is a sure way to lose any mainstream appeal you gained.

What are you talking about? This is great! The whole internet is talking. Maybe they'll feature the story on Fox News tonight. Ron is back at it, dropping truth bombs. Even if it wasn't personally him, it an important truth bomb to get out, and dropped at the perfect opportune time for maximum effect.

I'd be ok with that. But on the other hand, if he asked me or some of my brethre to run those sites, I would expect - hope even - that ya'll would take him to the woodshed and beat some sense into him. There's a reason that PR spokespeople make decent money. It's not a job that any warm body can fill. It is as much as art as talent.

I loved what I did [killing people, that is]. I still do. If circumstances were different--if my family didn't need me--I'd be back in a heartbeat. I'm not lying or exaggerating to say it was fun. I had the time of my life being a SEAL [killing savages].

Those Gatlings chewed the --- out of the enemy that night. The Iraqis rolled armor out of the city to get us, but they never got close. It got to the point where the Iraqis realized they were --- and tried to flee.

Big mistake. That just made them easier to see. The planes kept coming, nailing them. They had them zeroed in, and zeroed them out. You’d hear the rounds coming past you in the air—errrrrrrrrr—then you’d hear the echo—erhrhrrhrh, followed closely by secondary explosions and whatever other havoc the bullets caused.

---, I thought to myself, this is great. I --- love this. It’s nerve-wracking and exciting and I --- love it.

~~~

It happens that I love to fight.

~~~

You'd have a violent explosion, a fire, and then no more enemy. Gotta love it.

~~~

We had contact every time we went out.

We loved it.

~~~

Now, I like war, and I love doing my job, but it rankled me that the Navy wasn’t keeping its word.... In the end, I was all right with being scheduled for another deployment. I still loved war.

It's funny, some here worrying about Ron Paul's legacy. Glenn Beck probably cried like a baby when he learned that this warmongering asshole's chickens came home to roost. Glenn Beck's audience would be in near complete agreement with the sentiments expressed above as written by Kyle. You know what's going to tarnish Ron's legacy more? Cozying up to Glenn Beck. I don't need to spell it out, do I?

Get over yourself. Ron Paul did neither of those things highlighted in your above post.

Those type of "appeal to emotion" tactics may work on CNN, not here buddy.

Hence why I used the word "perceived". Reading comprehension 101. Personally, it doesn't sound like language Ron would use to me. That being said, I also know his propensity for administrative failings as a man. I stand by what I said about this possibly damaging the inroads we made with the veterans community, especially if the crowd celebrating Kyle's death run with it. Anything beyond prayers, well-wishes, or RIP upon someone's untimely death will be interpreted as grandstanding.

I haven't even scratched the surface. This man was a disgrace.

This guy was just awful, most of the people defending him aren't looking past the uniform and are just declaring him a hero because the propaganda during Super Bowl says anyone wearing a uniform is a hero but people in uniform can do very bad things like rape and murder Iraqi's or revel in their kills or make money peddling their escapades.

You obviously weren't at the those Veterans events so you don't know the kinship the Paul campaign had with the military.

Ron has great kinship with the military and always has. His top donors in both campaigns were from the Army, Navy and Air force, remember? He has a base in his district. He is a veteran.

You are sounding like a concern troll now.

Do you have a link to that propaganda?

A distinct lack of respect for the dead. Which is important. Regardless of whether the Bible verse could be considered an attack or not, and regardless of whether the guy deserved an attack or not, the man has family somewhere, and the last thing they need this soon after the man's demise is such insensitivity. And this is the main reason I don't think Ron Paul composed and sent this tweet. He would have more respect for the grieving than that.

The man's relations do not deserve disrespect for being loving relations. Even if they're of the Hitler family. It's too soon, it's too blunt, it ain't the doctor's style.
