    Rayla Campbell, Massachusetts GOP nominee for Secretary of State, tells Mass Republican convention that teachers in the commonwealth are "telling your 5-year-old that he can go and suck another 5-year-old’s dick."

    Her 5 year old probably learned that type of language in her home.

    Republican Blames Gun Violence on ‘Black People'

    vis YAHOO NEWS -

    Racist AZ Republican Senate hopeful Blake Masters
    acknowledges that the US has a gun violence problem.
    But he also has a theory about why there’s a problem—
    "it’s Black people, frankly.”

    It’s unclear why Masters—who has pushes the baseless
    “great replacement” conspiracy theory narrative—
    felt compelled to single out Black people.
    But Masters, whom the white nationalist website VDARE
    fêted last year as an “immigration patriot,”
    was quite clear about his vision of two Americas...

       “When they ban ‘ghost guns’ and pistol braces,
        that’s all about disarming law-abiding people,
        like you and me, that’s what it’s about,” Masters said.

    Blake Masters, backs a national abortion ban, claims
    Democrats want to “import a million people every year
    to replace Americans who were born here,” has said
    that the media and big tech “conspired to manipulate
    the 2020 election”—which he claims “Trump won”—
    and calls the gender pay gap a “left-wing narrative.”

    But Masters, whom the white nationalist website VDARE
    fêted last year as an “immigration patriot,”
    was quite clear about his vision of two Americas...

       “When they ban ‘ghost guns’ and pistol braces,
        that’s all about disarming law-abiding people,
        like you and me, that’s what it’s about,” Masters said.

    Blake Masters, backs a national abortion ban, claims
    Democrats want to “import a million people every year
    to replace Americans who were born here,” has said
    that the media and big tech “conspired to manipulate
    the 2020 election”—which he claims “Trump won”—
    and calls the gender pay gap a “left-wing narrative.”

    After Greene says Adam Schiff is her least favorite Member of Congress, Gaetz says: “I would rather give Nancy Pelosi a sponge bath than endure one dinner with Adam Schiff .. I would trim her toenails with my teeth before I would have dinner with Adam Kinzinger, err Adam Schiff.”

    I don't know which one is more disgusting. 

    High school juveniles. This is your GOP.

    Washington Commanders Defensive Coordinator Jack Del Rio says there are “two standards” between Black Lives Matter protests and January 6th: “We have a dust-up at the Capitol, nothing burned down, and we’re gonna make that a major deal.”

    A dust up???

    I liked Jack until he just showed his ignorance.

    Rep. Pat Fallon (R-TX) just blamed the rise in mass shootings on “the overuse of these dang smartphones.”

    So know we have video games, doors & phones....

    Senator John Thune said that AR-15s are used to “shoot Prairie dogs” in his state of South Dakota.

    If you need a weapon of war to shoot a two pound rodent, you are a lousy shot & shouldn't have a gun in your hands.

    This is your GOP!

    One difference is that one of those events wasn't promoted by the president of the United States,to overturn the election that he lost.

    One was promoted and encourage by one political party and was never shunned by the same party. One of those events lasted months, happened in dozens of cities around the US, caused mass destruction to property owned by tax paying Americans, cost livelihoods to tax paying citizens. One also set a precedent for groups of people and can be related to the rising crime rates we see on a daily basis. Hence, go check out SF.

    People have been arrested & gone to prison for property damage done during the Floyd protests. Plenty of them.  Republican "whataboutism" doesn't work here because they were both wrong. Except 1/6 was a national embarrassment to this country and a black eye to the rest of the world. And was led by a trader President that has yet to be arrested.

    A "dust-up at the Capitol" and "nothin' burned down" is so on-brand Republican Fascist Gaslighting. I've seen quite a few "dust-ups" without 5 people dying. Weird huh? I think Jack is one helmet short of a huddle..

    @DrStrangelove

     Oh ya? Police still searching for all the smash and grabs from high end luxury stores? What about all the current smash and grabs, thefts from stores, beatings on the streets? Is there still a witch-hunt to catch every single one of them? 

    The months long of destruction wasn't an embarrassment in the eyes of the world while everyone was supposed to be locked inside, wearing their masks while showering and driving alone? Guess that was nothing and didn't cause any tension in Americans.

    If everyone is armed loaded and carrying a concealed weapon nobody will be shot....

    This worked out so well way back when.

    Wild West" annual murder rate of 165 per 100,000 was more than 15 times higher than a "city" rate of 10 per 100,000 around the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. In absolute numbers, that would translate hypothetically into 16.5 murders a year in Tombstone, versus 50 murders per year for say, Chicago's 500,000 residents around 1880. Another poster pointed out that the average for Tombstone was closer to 10 per year, relative to a peak population of 10,000, which would still be high.

    165 per 100000 

    When gun ordinances were I acted it fell to 10 in 100000.
