His whole point is - less government intervention. That is ALL his comments are about. He is not a racist and does not support discrimination in any way. Goodness!
And don't get started on the GOP having moral issues, when you have so much going on with the Democratic party as well. That's hypocritical of you to point fingers at only ONE party. They both have had their share of problems. At least we make them own up to it. The Democrats leave the dishonest thugs in office, we make ours resign.

You're right, PO. Rand Paul is a Libertarian like his dad. To understand a Libertarian you have to try and see the world the way they do. They tend to be the most non-pragmatic and most idealistic people around. If the world were a perfect world, I think I'd be a Libertarian too.
In Paul's mind there is no need for government intervention in cases like the Civil Rights Act because discrimination doesn't really exist. Everybody works hard and everybody will just get along if you left them alone. People are good and industrious and everybody will automatically look out for one another without a lot of costly regulation.
