dumb shit a trumpublican said today

[RainbowsandUnicorns]

i don't know what state that person represents. but she would be their problem.

She votes on laws that affect all of us, not just those in her district. So she is officially all of our problem, not just theirs.

My hope was that he was trolling but I wasn't 100% sure.
Thank you for explaining that much nicer than I was tempted to.

i don't care what that hott mess says anymore than i care what aoc says. they are both from the hott mess wing of their respective party. nice to look at. dumb as doorstops.

I know I sound like a broken record but it is a really sad statement on this country when people elected this woman because they actually wanted her to represent them. Let that sink in.

What a fucking moron. No one is discussing completely disarming Americans like what was done in Venezuela.

I don't care what they say, either but I do care about what they vote.

Biggest reason why I care what they say is because their cult followers take much of it as gospel - and it's dangerous.

Yes, Filipkowski often does that but.....
"I love" that it seems you find more fault in the "caption" than what the person "actually said".

Why would/should I find fault in what she said in that short clip?

Are you serious with that question? If so, I'll be kind with my response.

"If we are disarmed we are no longer citizens". Do you believe that?
"“In Venezuela, they eat the dogs and it started because they do not have firearms". Do you believe that?

Are you serious with those questions? If so, I'll be genuine with my response.

I don't define citizenship as the ability to possess firearms, but I don't find fault in her for feeling that her right to possess firearms is something that she values.

Venezuela has horrible issues due to a tyrannical/corrupt governement. I don't solely blame their citizens inability to possess guns as the cause of their current politcal climate, but I do believe it didn't help the situation. I think it's saddening/heart breaking to read reporting that some of their citizens have been forced to eat dogs/domesticated animals and rodents for survival. I do not find fault in her for thinking that if Venezuelans had similar rights as Americans that they wouldn't have been as susceptible to a tyrannical/corrupt government that they now face.

Please, please, please tell me you don’t really believe in any of the above post and it’s your bored schtick. Otherwise, I can’t believe you have have a “fool all the people all the time” meter stuck at 14!!

1. I didn't say nor ask about her and/or anyone else's right to possess firearms. She specifically said, "If we are disarmed we are no longer citizens". I don't believe that to be true. Perhaps a bad analogy but if alcohol was banned in the USA would we not still be citizens?

2. Right. If the Venezualan citizens had USA 2nd amendment rights they wouldn't be as "susceptible to a tyrannical/corrupt government" BUT..... If their citizens were allowed to own guns, many could and probably would shoot and kill Venezuelan soldiers and government officials. Do you feel that's the solution to their problems?
Regardless, my question was about if YOU believed "they" eat dogs in Venezuela BECAUSE they don't own guns and it STARTED because they don't have guns.

I read it, but I still don't believe it.

[KUTradition]

does anything say western white privilege more than disparaging the dietary habits of those in developing nations?

some people need to get out more, and experience how those viewed as less privileged actually live

[MICHHAWK]

nothing says western woke white privilege more than the woke white privileged lecturing the rest of us for not being "country club" woke enough. you and aoc are like two peas in the same white woke privileged pod.

lol

"but I don't find fault in her for feeling that her right to possess firearms is something that she values."

She didn't say that she values it. She said that without it we aren't citizens, we are subjects. That is absurd.

"but I don't find fault in her for feeling that her right to possess firearms is something that she values."

She didn't say they were more susceptible to it. She said their need to eat dogs started because they don't have firearms. That is absurd.

Sorry, but I make no attempt to conjure out of the sky how people are "feeling" based on what they say. I just evaluate what they say. What she said is ridiculous.

[Deleted User 863]

Feeling that we are subjects instead of citizens if we don't have the right to possess firearms is absurd, but I don't find fault in her for valuing that constitutional right. It's her opinion that she would feel that way. Even if we disagree with her.

And you make attempts to "conjure out of the sky" what people are "feeling" based on what they say nearly every single day around here. You make these totally self UNaware grandiose statements far to often for as much as you contradict half the things you say.

Do you know if you are coming or going? Friendly advice. Maybe give it a rest for a while.

YOUR words.....

"Why would/should I find fault in what she said in that short clip?"

YOU followed that up with.......

Thinking the ability to possess firearms is solely what constitutes a citizen IS absurd....but I don't find fault in her for feeling that way and having an opinion (even if it's a stupid one) of her own. What SHE "thinks" makes her a citizen is simply her opinion.

The amount of attention you give some of these relatively powerless politicians is absurd.

Yes, I happen to care about and give attention to people who I feel are a legitimate threat to the well being of our country and YOU feel the amount of attention" I give what YOU feel are "relatively powerless politicians" is "absurd".
Got it. Duly noted.

Now I got one for you.
Do you feel it's "absurd" that you seemingly are more interested about what I have to say/post than politicians who unlike me, may actually have a bearing on your and your family's life?

It's not absurd at all. I enjoy interacting with you more than I would enjoy interacting with many (most?) politicians. Thankfully I don't interact with many (any?) politicians the vast majority of my existence.

Well, I will take that as a compliment (intended or unintended) but as I basically said to MICH earlier today, I feel we ("we" meaning ALL semi sane Americans) need to pay MORE attention to what I consider to be dangerous politicians - and figure out how to either prevent them from following through on their "agendas" or try our best to make sure they don't get elected again.

On a semi related side note.
Lori Lightfoot came out on stage last night and a lot of people started cheering for her. Not saying they should have booed her but my guess is most of these people are not at all educated nor care about her. Why should they you may ask, well, there were people shooting guns at each other in a large crowd of innocent people just two blocks away from the festival around 10:00pm. My buddy missed it by about 10 minutes.
As a woman I know said, "Was with my 11 year old daughter. We had to run. She is traumatized. This city is a mess thanks to leadership. Can't even enjoy a concert".

And the rubes in Georgia love her for her steadfast "conservative" beliefs.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) on Saturday said “no one can convince” her that the rioters behind the Jan. 6 attack at the U.S. Capitol were not anti-fascist protesters and that she “cannot wait for a real investigation” to take place, in an apparent snub to the House committee investigation’s year-long probe.

Greene was speaking with fellow 2020 election conspiracy theorist Mike Lindell, also known as the My Pillow Guy, after attending the Conservative Political Action Conference in Texas when she made her unsupported claims and shared her shock at the day’s violence.

“I was very upset. I never expected anything like that. And when that happened I thought, this is antifa, and no one can convince me it was so-called Trump supporters, and we know there’s a lot wrong there, and I cannot wait for a real investigation,” she said, while pointing a finger at anti-fascist protesters.
