| @ygjb a few points: > The right to bear arms supercedes the right to live in safe communities (and as a former infantry man, I can assert that more weapons in the hands of untrained civilians does not make communities more safe). True, they need training. In 1966 the city of Orlando trained women to shot and the number of rape incidents dropped 90%. > The right to an health care (abortion) is superceded by so called "religious freedoms". That's not health care, that's killing another human being. Your freedom ends where the life of another human being begins. > The right to vote is superceded by politicians who rewrite election laws and electoral districts to choose their constituents. Are you referring to forbidding criminals to vote and democrats paying what's due for them so they can vote (presumably left)?
I can't say I feel too strongly about that because voting is pretty useless. Rich people will anyway buy the government whether that's right or left. > Freedom to discriminate is beginning to supercede the right to freedom from discrimination. This is a massive problem, I agree. Positive discrimination and allowing companies to favor women and minorities (excluding asians, they're doing good enough on their own) is pure racism / sexism. |
The “War on Crime” and the “War on Drugs” made people criminals as they targeted minorities until the opioid epidemic started affecting “rural America” and then drugs became a “disease”.
But he is also referring to gerrymandering and having two ballot boxes in cities like Houston to make it harder to vote. In GA they wanted to cut out early voting on Sundays because Black churches would encourage people to vote after they left church and transport them there in church busses.
