Candidate Statement

Libertarian Principle:
People should be free to do whatever they want, except to initiate force, a threat of force, or fraud against other people or their property.

Laws & regulations should be tested against the Libertarian Principle. If a law has another purpose, such as (in 1937) banning hemp so Big Oil Companies needn't compete with hemp Diesel oil, the law should not be enforced. The Attorney General can help protect people from bad laws.

I will uphold the Bill of Rights.

The following NY State laws are unconstitutional:
- the Sullivan Law
- Republican Gov. Pataki's Gun Ban
- Cuomo's NY SAFE Act
- the NY Knife Ban Law
all of which laws violate the 2nd Amendment.
Will bring a Civil Rights suit to invalidate those & other unconstitutional laws.

Legislation is often agreed upon in secret local meetings, then slammed rapidly through public legislative sessions without enough prior public notice. Will help civic activists sue legislators who violate the Public Meetings Law.
