Wonder if she felt the same about the lockdown protestors?

Also, Loeffler can get ****ed. After the ******** her and her husband pulled at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, I hope she gets voted out. Not that she was voted in anyway.

What did they pull?

Do the BLM/dems/fraud SJW athletes actually care about people being racist? The answer is no. These groups approve and encourage anyone saying or doing anything they want to black conservatives
Tim Scott releases racist voicemails, death threats he received while working on GOP police reform bill
"You **** motherf----- you," a person says in one of the messages provided to the Washington Examiner by Scott's office. "I hope you choke on your tongue tonight b----. You are the lowest piece of s--- this country ever produced."

What does a "Republican" even believe in anymore??? I mean besides their belief in politics.

Instead of "Mob Rule", the only phrase by an R senator should have been "exercising their constitutionally protected 2A right to bear arms".

I wonder what will happen when that cold hard bitter winter wind that will soon be coming down from the N.Pole? Temps will be in the minus degrees (-25) w/wind chill factors at 50 more degrees below normal.....Those camping on folks lawns at that time are to be asked to come in the house for warm blankets with coco & marshmallows?

I wonder if it can be some type of negligence?

Do they have one of those squatting laws. Like if it's been X amount of time and they havent been kicked off they have the right to be there?

If they do and they are defacto landlords I think there some possibility of being held liable.

It's almost like it depends on who shows up with guns to protest as to whether or not the 2A applies, I guess.

This argument is based on class not race and sinks to the level of Joe Biden racism "poor kids are just as smart as white kids".

It assigns some sort of racial pretogative to failure or success. Which sounds pretty freaking racist to me.

It refuses to remove race, and look at actual equal circumstances. It always argues the what if of Tom Bradys white kids vs ghetto single parent black kids. Flip the script and let's look at Lebron James kids vs trailer park meth head white kids and you get the same result.

It looks at white kids failing out, going to jail, getting addicted to drugs, and appropriately lays the blame at their feet. You put a black person in that same situation and it's the system that failed, the system is racist. It all hinges on, what I see as incredibly racist, argument that a black person CANT make the same mistakes as a white person, that there is always something else at fault. Nominally a white person or the "system".

Agreed. And what’s just as bothersome is that if you have a successful black person outside of sports that automatically means they’re an Uncle Tom, was given something, or there’s some other manner of wrongdoing. It’s demeaning to those that work hard and succeed on their own merits and helps deepen those thoughts that not everyone can succeed in their own in this “system”.

The 2a is just like Covid it doesn’t care about your cause , it’s everyone’s right same as voting , free speech , Freedom of religion . It’s not a separate right and should be treated the same as the others . It’s not , but it should .

Who is saying we should expect the results to be the same? How about just trying to lessen the inequalities created by the government?

If you're poor/black and 5x as likely to catch a stray bullet because the war on drugs is nasty in your neighborhood, that's an inequitable result created by government. If you're 5x more likely to get harassed by the police because the war on drugs is nasty in your neighborhood, that's an inequitable result created by government. If you're innocent and not given a speedy trial because you don't have good representation and so you take a plea deal, that's an inequitable result.

These things add up, and they stack the deck against blacks/poor at large. On an individual level, people must take ownership over their lives, but I'm not trying to mentor people. I'm trying to fix government.

I do believe that decriminalizing minor drug offenses would eliminate a lot of unnecessary interactions. If people choose to do drugs that’s on them.
