In 1992, Ron Paul, now a candidate for the Republican presidential nomination, published a newsletter called the “Ron Paul Political Report.” That year, the report published a special edition on “racial terrorism,” a favorite theme. It included an observation about the Los Angeles riots, which erupted after a Ventura County jury acquitted four police officers charged with beating Rodney G. King.
“Order was only restored in L.A.,” the publication opined, “when it came time for the blacks to pick up their welfare checks.”
