Politics Tennessee Passes Law That Would Punish Protestors By Taking Away Their Right to Vote

We don't need no stinking Constitution.

 

Good God, almighty.

 

By the looks of that pic, it would occur to me that those on top of the building shouldn't be there. It brings a whole new meaning to peaceful protesting....I doubt what our Constitution crafters had in mind.

Sometimes, there's a thin blue line between peaceful protesting and inciting riots. That said, I think there have been 13 or so riots declared in Portland this far.....and seemingly getting worse. I think Governor Lee is laying out a deterrent. The left will quickly jump to paint this a a Republican wanting the keep Democrats from voting. Book it, Danno.

 

Just because they passed a law doesn't make it legal. Needless to say, that law on its face violates the First Amendment. It will never see the light of day.

 

That's what I was about to say. No way this survives the courts.

 

the first amendment is not a left wing conspiracy. When your party fucks up, just say they fucked up. Don't bait the opposition with dumb assumptions...anyone who understands the Constitution knows this is completely unconstitutional....imagine them taking the vote away for life from an airline strike or a basketball strike...this is some strong arm bullshit and it won't fly. I'm calling bullshit on your thin blue line theory.it's more of a fat white line....this country was formed by homegrown protesters.

 

This reminds me...Costco now sells Jack Daniels.

 

They use to think that hanging was a good deterrent for stealing a loaf of bread. Most of us are over that paradigm now a'days.

 

Many states already have laws that restrict felons from voting. This ain't a new thing.

 

As I had mentioned, many states ALREADY prevent felons from voting. I don't thing we want protesters camped out atop our federal buildings. I know I don't

 

So you think it's a good idea

You ain't seen nuttin' yet, cowboy.

 

Florida has just recently adopted a new way of preventing ex felons from voting. The voters allowed ex cons to vote and the Republicans, governor and legislature, made it near impossible to actually vote.
Most states allow ex cons to vote. In fact, no state disallows it entirely.

 

learn the difference between protesters and felons.....what you're cheering for is soldiers on top of federal buildings, in voting stations and teargassing citizens....what are you, a monarchist? Your Royal Family wannabes will be speaking this week and yes....you are cheering for the wrong side of history...stop following fake presidential fear mongers and understand how we became a free country...it wasn't by oppressing votes. Weak sauce. Make better decisions this time around...the people of my country will not stand for turning into a police state....these protests you fear are an important chapter in our civil rights unless you don't believe in equality and fair treatment.

 

We ain’t seen nuttin’ yet buckaroo, but we’ve certainly seen enough.......
