>>Libertarian Michael Kane, candidate for 41st District delegate
>>challenging Democrat incumbent Eileen Filler-Corn, said he supported
>>school vouchers that give parents a greater say in their childs education.
>>
>>"I dont feel that the Richmond government
should be putting
>>one-size-fits-all mandates on a localized issue such as our public
>>schools," Kane said. "So, with a voucher system, everybody would be
>>able to send their children where they like, and then the parents can
>>make the decision, not the government."
>>
>>...

>>Kane told the crowd he did not believe in any type of gun control
>>measures and viewed them as an infringement of individual rights.
>>Criminals will still continue to get guns, regardless, he said. Kane
>>also said that the Virginia Tech shootings could have been averted if
>>students had been allowed to carry guns on campus.

>>When asked about the environment, Kane stressed that the way to
>>preserve the environment was to strengthen private property rights,
>>while Dianne Blais, an independent candidate for the 40th District
>>house of delegates seat, encouraged individual conservation
>>activities, such as using mass transit and walking or riding buses,
>>and utilizing solar energy. Hugo plugged mass transit but said he saw
>>a greater opportunity in a new generation of telecommuters that would
>>reduce commuter traffic.
>>
>>Kane also said he supports the full legalization of marijuana, drawing
>>cheers from the crowd.
