You can leave it wherever you want. But when reactionary right wingers claim (falsely) that the right to vote does not exist.....

We read the posts of folks like you.

We see the steady drift toward authoritarianism and your vocal support for it.

Explain your rationale as to why you think owning a firearm is a fundamental human right, but voting is somehow not a fundamental human right.

There's no way voting is a natural right. Completely impossible. If it was a natural right, there wouldn't be restrictions on who can and can't vote.

There are lots of restrictions on the right to own firearms. So, if your criterion of what you consider to be a natural right is whether or not there are restrictions on it then why do you perceive voting rights to have less legitimacy than the right to own firearms?

Those are unconstitutional.

You're making a statement, an assertion, not an argument.

So, how do you know restrictions on voting are constitutional and restrictions on owning firearms are unconstitutional?
 
Well look at the bright side. If these people are foolish enough to try violence, they will meet the big bad federal government they are always complaining about. My guess, the violent group will meet and even more violent group with the law on their side. Sad to think people have become this polarized and stupid.

You are assuming that Trump is a winning horse.

Risky Prediction #478: Trump is so mentally ill, moronic, and inept that he will step on his own tiny dick before November.

I’ll be the first to acknowledge that the basest of his base will stick with him no matter what truth becomes known, no matter how he fecks over them and the nation. But in the end many Trump supporters will jump ship.

More than he already has without it mattering?

Call it whatever label you want. I don’t care.

Schoolyard labels are the stuff for morons like Trump and the folks who clap and cheer when he bellows them.

You’re the one who asserted that there is no right to vote.

Purest authoritarianism.

You’ll cheer for the man who thinks he can be a dictator, and you won’t realize what you’ve done till you find out he has declared himself king, and abolished the elections.

Trump will do that if you give him half a chance.

Yet you use labels for those who don't follow your opinions.

I said nothing about a right to vote. I don't cheer for anyone. I do laugh at your nonsense.

You have got that right
and with what the Senate basically has done, give him the ok to do what ever he wants as long as he says under art. 2 he thinks it is for the good of the country
I wouldn't put it past him if he says he is doing away with the Federal gov. and he declares himself King and it is all for the good of the country
and the way he has got his cult followers believing everything he says they would let him do it, and be cheering him on.
have a nice afternoon

That is exactly what I think of when I hear "Boogaloo". I believe it's also mentioned in the "Land of 1000 dances". Great days. Gives me a good feeling.

Which dem candidate do you believe will beat Trump in November.
 
Risky Thicket said:
I do! Trump's mental health issues render him incapable of effectively carrying out the duties of his office. His malignant narcissism is progressive and is in no way self-correcting.

It is my hope that a sizeable number of GOP senators will make it known to their Democrat counterparts that they will not stand in the way of Trump being removed from office.

That's a good question. I agree with her in principle. I think people who support kidnapping children from their parents at the border should be made to feel shame because it's wrong. Shame can be a very effective non-violent tool of persuasion. And if you were a real conservative who believed in the political philosophy that inspired the Framers of the Constitution you would also agree with me that all human beings have the same individual human rights, even if they are not of 100% European descent and speak Spanish, and even if they commit the minor crime of trespassing, which is a misdemeanor in most similar situations within the boundaries of our Republic.

Should public officials be harassed in public venues? I think probably not.

Should Waters have encouraged others to harass public officials in public venues? I think probably not.

I remember when I was younger being hissed at in church by some of the older ladies. Maybe we should bring back hissing?

What is your opinion? How do you think officials who support the abhorrent policy of kidnapping children from their parents be treated? Do you think people who do such things should be treated with dignity, honor, and respect? Maybe just ignored? What do you think? Do you think Waters was right to suggest that critics of the policy harass White House officials in public? Maybe Waters should have just suggested hissing at White House officials?

Not hissing. Shunning maybe. It would be interesting to see what would happen if they walked into a restaurant and were simply asked to leave. Or if the other patrons simply paid their bills and walked out. No harassment. Just rejection.

Apdst is the if a liberal supports it, he opposes it type of conservative. It's led to some crazy threads with quotable lines. He isn't generally into recruiting, just the chanting. He's not the guy designing the flyers or even stapling then, just one who comes across them and gets a gut feeling if you catch my drift.

Anywho, welcome to the forum. Check out the smoke free areas, we don't have Pepsi, and Fanta is available on demand. Also, trust no one will skulls on their profile cards.

Those guys are dicks.

Apdst told me once that shoes were groceries if they were purchased in a grocery store. He may be the most entertaining right winger on this site. :mrgreen:

When the point is to beat liberals no matter how stupid a statement sounds, imagination becomes the only boundary.

I honestly believe that as long as the left hates Trump, the right will love him. I don't think anything he can do will change that. He has disrespected veterans to piss off that segment of the right, been blatantly corrupt, and laughed at everything the religious stand for. He mocks law enforcement. If going after police, veterans, and religion isn't enough to hurt right wing support nothing is.

Maybe not nothing. If he came out gay, muslim, hispanic, or anti gun he might lose them. They hate those things.
