Politics Thread

So I thought one of the arguments to take away guns was that the police are there to protect you? How can you be protected when the police can't use deadly force on someone trying to kill you with a weapon?

Also, if the girl being attacked was killed and the cops just watched, would the same politicians and celebrities think that was the proper result? Would that be a sign of progress?

They’ll just never talk about it. Just like them and the national Media never talk about all the killings in Chicago or the case of a 13 year old stabbing another 13 year old to death in Cincinnati the same day as Columbus. “Those” Black Lives do NOT matter.

What happens if you skipped the class in law school that told you never to ask a question you didn't know the answer to:

Hilarious she thinks there are provisions that are racist. So it is her belief then that black people are stupid, or what exactly? There is nothing zero nada anything racist in that bill and by saying there is, Ms. Abrams is unintentionally being racist.

He asked the wrong question... it should have been what specifically do you find racist in this bill and why

Absolutely a gotcha moment which failed miserably. Pubs desperately want to make Abrams look like a fool because of the work she did in Georgia. If they don't and Warnock loses, it will expose their voting bill for exactly what it is.

It is not by definition racist IMO. There is certainly a socio-economic aspect, so by extension it can be seen as racist. Yes, he should have asked a better question.

I feel very badly for anyone who loses a loved one. I feel HORRIBLE when it’s someone who is completely innocent. So many of these cases have people who are actually committing criminal acts and are in the wrong. Then a cop effs up. I wish they would try harder to NOT push the limits to avoid the possibility of being shot while being a criminal.

It makes me sick to type that, but both sides deserve blame.

Wow, never thought I’d agree with Liz Warren but she’s right on the treatment of Jan 6th protesters.

Where is the outrage from the National Media and the Left from protestors storming the Oklahoma State Capitol Building and forcing the legislature to lock their doors today for protection?
Seems as if “insurrection” and intimidation/interference with Government by building invasion isn’t limited to one side.
I’ll await Paul’s outrage post.

If they broke the law, they should be arrested and held accountable.
Seems there were a couple dozen protesting from a gallery, and were escorted from the building.
Didn't notice any cops being attacked or beaten. Didn't notice any weapons like Michigan protests.
Could have missed it though.

New angle in the Columbus shooting. Garage camera across the street. Looks to me the police officer was doing his job and probably saved the young African American’s life.

Uh, read, I repeat READ this entire article. The fact that it comes from a right leaning publication is irrelevant because it is 100% factual. 100%
Stacy Abrams’ latest “work in Georgia” created a lie that caused Major League Baseball to pull their All Star game from the Atlanta suburbs, thereby costing millions of dollars to businesses owned by People of Color. She still will not concede that she lost the Governors race. That is some piece of “work”.
