No he’s not just a dead black guy but he is technically a dead black guy…please tell me more about being ignorant and childish when you spout crazy bullshit on here every day. So Biden got a RECORD 81 million votes…who exactly is having their votes suppressed???
The filibuster and the Democrats hypocrisy around the filibuster
- Thread starter FreedomWins
- Start date
What he did as a peaceful protester in 1965 has almost nothing to do with the bill named after him. He and the other protesters were right to do what they did. The bill named after him is just a D attempt at rewriting federal voting laws to make things more-favorable for their political fortunes. Nothing more and nothing less.
Freedom reduced this wonderful man as a "dead guy". I was just giving people a history lesson that John Lewis was more than just a "dead guy". The bill is named in honor of him because of the sacrifice that he made in history that dreadful day.
The bill named after him is a bill that would undo the voter suppression laws that the repubs inacted to make things more favorable for their political fortune.
Biden won with a RECORD 81 million votes…whose votes are being suppressed???
Like I said, you are ignorant. Yes, Biden got 81 million votes. That is the reason the repubs have voter suppression laws popping up in almost every state as a result.
Lol sure, doing things to make elections more secure is VOTER SUPPRESSION to the stupid CNN crowd…the bill is unconstitutional and won’t pass thankfully…the Dems know the RED WAVE is coming because your plantation masters are so bad at this
You seem like you'd be a blast at parties. Take a deep breath and go kick rocks.
T
hey're passing voting restriction laws in order to find ways in which they can legally discard or negate votes where they see fit.
Georgia turned blue and Texas now has the potentially in the next few years to flip, and once that happens it's over. They're terrified.
You could learn something from me at parties!! They’re passing those laws for more secure elections…why don’t Democrats want more secure elections??? Ask yourself that. They’re terrified because they’re doing so poorly right now and know the RED WAVE is coming.
And if Texas and Georgia do flip, you’re right, the country is over. We will all suffer forever like we are now!!
Also, they don't give a s**t about your freedom. If they did, they wouldn't be banning someones right to choose what they have to do with their body, and better yet impose a bounty system in the community to enforce it. It's the biggest mandate there can be. Completely hypocritical.
They dont give a s**t about those women nor the children, it's just about control. The party is a complete joke and is based off fear and pure hypocrisy. Also, I voted Republican for years, so this isn't some BS liberal take. Open your eyes.
Who are you yelling at about it being okay to kill babies??? You fit in here with the other baby killer supporters!! Take a deep breath.
Expecting Ga and Tx to be blue in the midterms, are you?
If the line was that long, I would go home. Before getting in line then get your own food and drinks if you can’t make it without eating and drinking before you vote. Can’t people do anything on their own anymore?
Perhaps, but why create a law to prevent people from giving refreshments while in line. If your 82 year old mother was in a line around the corner of the voting place. She called you to bring her some water. What are you going say to your mother? "Mom I'm not bringing you anything. You should have brought some with you". Come on, give me a break.
Tell your mother to take water with her before she goes…come up with solutions and stop wanting and wanting and wanting…it’s all you lazy ass Democrats know
Give me this give me that just give me something as we can’t make it on our own.
Yes, or no. If your mother was standing in line to vote and called you to come give her water or food, would you give it to her?
I would, but wouldn’t expect the government to and they shouldn’t.
Who said that the govt is going to feed these people in the lines? The laws make it illegal for you, and you said you would, to give refreshments to your mother. Nobody is talking about the govt feeding these folks in line.
Take no offense but it is scary how uniformed some people can be on publicly available laws and proposed legislation. Did you ever read the Georgia election reform bill? Don't you think you should read it and all others instead of taking your talking points from MSNBC and CNN talking heads and regurgitating.
There is absolutely no prohibition to hand out water or food. The prohibition is on "who." The GA law prohibits any partisan or political organization from providing the food or water. Why, because voters should be free of any coercion or influence with a certain area around a polling station. It's called "electioneering" and its illegal everywhere. GA simply codified the checkerboard rules throughout the state to provide a uniform rule and penalty. Read the bill and you will see that if a city, a community center hosting a polling station, a non-political group wants to hand out simple water bottles or have a water station on a hot day there is NOTHING that prohibits that. And actually your "two block" example would even allow a partisan group as this would be outside the controlled area.
EDIT: Since i didnt think you would look here is the statutory citation which allows the polling station to make available unattended water stations in polling area:
Prohibits giving cash or gifts (including food or drinks) to voters. (GA SB 202, § 33, p. 73, ln. 1872- 1875.) Note that poll officers may provide self-service water available from an unattended container. (GA SB 202, § 33, p. 74, ln. 1888-1889)
Now how do you feel about all your news sources that have told you some grandma cant be offered a bottle of water on a hot day? Does it make you pause that they (1) intentionally mislead you; or (2) are too dumb to read the bill. WIll you take more caution next time and read the source documents before repeating something you heard?
As for mail in voting fraud. In just the past several people have been prosecuted and some elections have been required to "redo" due to fraud. I can link you to the court documents.
Want to know how it work, here's a tutorial. Pretty freaking simple. But nothing I didn't know:

Texas had the potential a couple cycles ago. With the sharp move left of the Democratic Party to open border and anti-fossil fuel policies Texas has turned deeper red.
The last poll shows Abbott up 52-37 over Beto. McAllen (85% Hispanic) just elected its first Republican mayor since the 90s, and the rio grand valley (a D stronghold) is turning red due to the shit show on the border (aided by inroads by Trump w/Hispanic voters). Add in the spike in violent crime in Houston and Austin peeling off suburban independent and Dems have a hard road ahead.
If you don’t agree ask yourself why is no serious candidate challenging Abbott? It’s just Beto. And Beto is getting zero National support. Cuz politicos don’t want to be associated with that failure.
Thanks to the complete ineptitude of Brandon and Democrats, we don’t have to worry. You could add Puerto Rico and DC as states and still lose both the House and Senate. Sadly, Nancy and Chuck know it.
I would not be surprised if there is a Republican President by 2023.

If the lines are long in areas where more blacks vote than they need to elect local officials worth a fk.
Voting machine numbers and locations are a local decision.
The Feds offer grants and free voting systems to local governments.
The local officials need to get off their duffs and get the money for the machines.
And? You don't hear Republicans saying we need to get rid of it do you? Dems only want it gone because they are the majority now and they don't want anything blocking their agenda. The filibuster is a very much needed item for our government to not grow out of control.Since 2009, 657 filibusters were recorded under Democratic minorities while 609 filibusters were recorded under Republican minorities.
Fact Brief : Did Democrats make record use of the filibuster in the last Congress? | Gigafact
YES, The filibuster, which allows the Senate minority party to block legislation by refusing to end debate, has been used by both Democrats and Republicans, almost always while occupying the Senate minoritrepustar.com
Voting rights. That's an oxymoron. Those bills will guarantee fraud left and right.
@BNIBoiler Why aren't you complaining about Delaware's voting laws. They are more restrictive than Georgia's is right now.
Funny. Who's the Senator who paved the way for that to happen. Yeah, that's right. Harry Reid...Senate Republicans invoked the "nuclear option" to gut the filibuster for Supreme Court nominees Thursday, a historic move that paves the way for Neil Gorsuch's confirmation and ensures that future high court nominees can advance in the Senate without clearing a 60-vote threshold.

@BuilderBob6 European countries have all but completely done away with mail in voting. Why? Widespread fraud.
BBC NEWS | UK | Politics | Postal votes 'wide-open to fraud'

Nice to see an actual journalist admit they were wrong about something. In this case, mail in voting. Too bad the USA didn't have the balls to dive in the way the UK did. Instead we had court cases tossed before hearing evidence and fake audits that were nothing more than recounts.
Vote by mail? OK, so I was wrong ...
A judge tossed out a local election in April, saying the vote-by-mail system was "wide...
Whats funny is the left used the filibuster many more times during Trump's term than the right did during Obama's. I forget the exact numbers, but I think it is nearly 2 times more. If you take away the left's hypocrisy, they have no platform whatsoever.
This gem really brings home the point
How many times are you going to get this wrong? How many times do I have to point out the truth before you stop posting this lie. voter ID started a long time before 2008. 2002 was the first federal requirement for ID if registered by mail and the state of Indiana submitted it's voter ID laws in 2006. The courts didn't approve it until 2008. STOP LYING!!
Europe has had massive fraud from mail in voting. Just because it isn't caught, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. You have to look for it to find it you know...
There are no voter suppression laws. That's total bullshit. Nobody is physically preventing anyone from voting. Period.
The funny thing here is that you don't have a shred of evidence that voter ID laws are suppressing votes other than talking heads claiming it's so.
Oh boy, another one that thinks voter suppression laws exist. Show me the evidence.
No one cares about your crack pot nonsense. You have zero credibility here. Leave the discussion to the grownups and sane people.
Maybe except for some Black Panthers in Philadelphia.
The massive problem with your argument here is that once someone is pregnant, it's no longer just their body. There is another living being in there that doesn't get a say. Idiots seem to forget that massive fact. I can't say I'm necessarily pro life since I'm Libertarian, but at the same time, the "it's my body" argument is completely devoid of all the facts and realities. Republicans are fighting for the rights of the unborn, which I think makes a ton of sense. I think there are valid reasons for abortion to be available, but the reality also is that the vast majority of people getting abortions should have either taken birth control, the day after pill or have the guy wrap it up ffs. There are plenty of options out there to prevent pregnancy.
This is a serious accusation to say they don't care. What's your proof? Or do you just assume this because they don't hold the same misguided values you do? Sounds more like your eyes have been covered by propaganda.
Nobody made a law preventing people from giving refreshments. They made a law preventing people that are a part of the system from giving refreshments. If you need something that bad, you can have someone you know get you something. You can't, however, have someone running for office give you something because it may skew how you were going to vote.
