In the beginning. . . . . . The small states refused to join the union unless there were protections in place to keep the big boys (New York and Virginia in those days) from deciding everything. So the compromise was for each state to get two vote for their senate seats, as well as the number of house seats. We never would have became The United States of America without it.
No, you guys need to keep the statues up at all costs. If you were to remove all the monuments to white supremacy, how would the black folks know their place?
You're talking about congress? Yep, a mix of equity and equality.
So true. Those statues were put up at the beginning of Jim Crow, then again when black folks were trying to get the right to vote and go to a decent school. So they are historical, not just how you think they are.
lol said all the women who voted in the last election.
My point is the gun lobby spend millions to perpetuate the myth of gun ownership somehow makes you safer, when bringing a gun into the home increases the risk of death or injury by firearm. With the main one being blowing your brains out. Not a great selling point.
What is your point? I’m saying leave history alone. It’s not thin skinned to try and preserve historical monuments anymore than it is to preserve the environment. The woke generation of today shouldn’t prevent a person 100 years from now seeing artifacts from a past war or historical figure. That doesn’t mean you agree with what that person did or how they lived. It’s just History. This generation is very similar to the rise of the Nazis. I see a lot of similarities, it’s rather frightening. Indoctrination, attacking anyone that doesn’t agree with your agenda, destroy anything that doesn’t support your cause or that you disagree withSo true. Those statues were put up at the beginning of Jim Crow, then again when black folks were trying to get the right to vote and go to a decent school.

And about thin skin. . . . .
Congress was basically the electoral college. In the old days they actually decided who to vote for. Now there are laws in place that make the vote represent the actual voting in each state.
Well since I’m not going to take myself out I would like to at least be able to protect my home from intruders. This is like telling me that I’m unsafe owning a car because I might drive drunk and I’m likelier to die in a DUI. LOL. Once again we go back to self responsibly and not needing the government to be my nanny
I'm saying those statues were put up by white supremacist at the end of reconstruction to let black folks know that the laws in Washington no longer applied to them. When the union army was pulled out of the south, lots of blacks became strange fruit for trying to continue voting.

Tell us about it.
Those state laws haven't been tested and are likely unconstitutional, because they bypass the main purpose of the EC.
Suicides by gun are
Behold the great cognitive disconnect. It’s not the Democrats who are driving the great authoritarian push of the last few years.
What the fuck are you talking about that you convinced yourself of this as some fucktarded reasoning as to the really messed up things we have done to our minority community?
Becasue your right wing hate mongering propaganda overlords told you so?
Trickle down economics doesn't work. Never did. Your believing a policy over economics.
