I would take a year more of being furloughed and dealing with this COVID madness if a Yang V Romney election were announced this summer. |
Because Romney would roll over and lose again

+100 This is ridiculous. Y’all claim to be an “Ally” until Karen can’t be inconvenienced driving through Georgetown. Then it is the fault of the protesters for being mowed down! And y’all are all going to protests in the suburbs, posting BLM stuff on your Facebooks, and when the subject of reparations comes up, you scatter like cockroaches! Instead, we hear things like “we need to study this” or “give the government more money” The government doesn’t need more money. You want to give the government more money so Karen can hire more of her friends and get them hooked up on the easy pay and bennies gravy train. With “Ally’s” like these, who needs enemies? |
Uh, the posters complaining about the protesters blocking traffic are not liberals. Likewise the ones complaining about the $600 federal boost to unemployment -- not liberals. Why would you think people who held those opinions were liberals? |
I am a liberal and I am complaining about non permitted protestors blocking traffic. Do you need a permit to protest in this city or not? If the law has changed and I can just block traffic as much as I want without a permit, then have at it. But if you still need a permit, then go get one or get out of the road. and don't tell me I can't be a liberal because I want laws followed. |
Yes, yes only conservatives don't like dangerous mobs blocking their cars at random points in the cities. We liberals love roving bandits burning shops and keeping us from getting to doctor's appointments |
So you support Black Lives Matter so long as we are not protesting in your backyard? This is the kind of hypocrisy that trumpets love to see. The purpose of these protests is to bring about real change even if it makes people a little uncomfortable. When we have people running over peaceful protestors, especially Women of Color, we need to expose them and publicly punish them to stop others from doing the same. |
| When I hear trumpers say sh!t like “if you block the road and start beating on my car I’ll drive over you” it makes me want to get a gun the next time we shut a street down so I can blast somebody who tries to drive over anyone. |
That worked great down in Austin last week huh |
Yes, I support Black Lives Matter and No I do not support non permitted protests or illegal closing of streets. Define making people a 'little uncomfortable'. Should they be allowed to stand outside of somebody's garage and not allow them to leave the garage? Maybe. Should they be able to block access to schools in a month? Maybe. But guess what, there are laws that give people access to roads and schools. Your protest is a permitted protest with your acoustic amplification and sirens and such. Or you can even get a permit to block streets. People do it all the time. But you might be offended by the protestors painting Baby Lives Matter in front of Planned Parent Hood. You might be offended by them having loudspeakers and sirens. But not to worry, because the police enforce their permit and the Mayor is super quick at power washing their fear roadway mural. So don't tell me that I am not allowed to be liberal, support BLM and not support your non permitted protest. |
Yes! Just yesterday I refused to pay my respects to John Lewis as he lay in state at the Capitol, as he was a notorious rule-breaker and blocked traffic on the Edmund Pettus Bridge! I don't believe he had a permit for that parade, and he and his group of bandits illegally prevented access to a public thoroughfare. What if a family had needed to drive their son to travel lacrosse during this unpermitted riot? Glad to see so many genuine liberals posting here, and not fake cons at all! |
And don't get me started about the Boston Tea Party! I don't believe historians have found any evidence of permit requests completed by the Sons of Liberty, and not only did their unpermitted demonstration result in the destruction of private property, but it no doubt also impeded traffic between the Old South Meeting House and Griffin's Wharf. |
Oh that is right. Same thing. So sorry. |
Watch out. The Sons of Liberty appropriated Native American culture and dressed an Indians for their tea party. You are showing your racism by propping yourself on their laurels. |
Because they're both decent and I would be fine with either! |
