[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The difference is between unproven allegations on the one hand, and disruption right on floor of legislature on video.

Look, we are different here in TN.  Unwritten rule in Nashville is you don’t use your car horn.  This bullhorn thing is unacceptable to so many.[/quote]

Wasn’t the white representative also on video? If there was a cool headed rational reason then why were only the two black members expelled?[/quote]

They took over the speaking from the person who was speaking.  They pulled out a bullhorn and screamed at the crowd to rev them up.  The woman stood there with them in support.  She did not scream.[/quote]

They brought in the bullhorn because they were being denied regular due process to speak and propose legislation.[/quote]

No, they weren't and never were.

I reluctantly support the expulsion. Because they were blocking the legislative body. It's no different from what the protesters were doing on J6. There is a time and venue for protest, but protest does not mean you stop other people from executing their legislative duties. [/quote]

Stop the lying.

Did these protesters smash windows, kick down doors, clash with police and throw fire extinguishers at their heads, cause any bodily injury (like losing fingers and an eye, which happened to Capitol police), threaten to hang a high official, try to overturn an election, cause millions in damage to a historic building? Yes or no?

The answer is no. And so no, it is not the same as the J6 mob. There’s a chasm of difference between the two. [/quote]

Ehh, that's just hyperbole. The end result is the same. Both groups wanted to overthrow the house. [/quote]

False.  TN legislators didn't want to "overthrow" anything, they wanted to be heard and wanted floor debate and consideration of sensible gun proposals.  Nothing more.  Republicans denied them, so they escalated.[/quote]
+1

When is it a good time? When will Republicans even allow debate? How many kids have to die before they do? [/quote]

If you dont agree with some particular policy then you need to obtain the votes necessary to change it. Rather than barking through bull horns when you clearly dont have them. Unless you support rule by violence or intimidation tactics[/quote]

You understand that the votes aren't there because of gerrymandering, right? [/quote]

The state of TN went for trump by 20++ percent- I want to say 24 from memory.

You think republicans have a majority in the state house because of gerrymandering?
