“•It expands the definition of domestic violence to include causing “emotional distress” or using “unpleasant speech.”
Today, if someone is convicted of domestic violence, they restrict access to guns.
This will further erode 2nd amendment rights.
Some folks like Cantor. It can be hard, sometimes, to identify the "good" Republicans vs the RINOs. People disagree on who is who. I have a simple way of making sure that I never support a "good" Republican only to find out later that the guy is a lousy RINO -- I no longer vote for Republicans of any kind. I'm done with the GOP and I'm a third party guy now.
I am still a registered Republican, but waiting for something better to come along.
I am certainly underwhelmed with their performance of late.
” I no longer vote for Republicans of any kind. I’m done with the GOP and I’m a third party guy now.”
So you’ve made a habit of voting for losers and helping the left.
I'm out of that party because I do not plan to help the Left or vote for losers. But you are free to continue the practice.
I think the combination af anger and frustration is just one of those parts of the human psyche that defies reasoning except to blurt out words and walk away.
Perhaps more cruel and sad is the battered spouse that stays together with the batterer.
well gee how about getting involved instead of sitting back expecting everyone else to do the work
Nailed it!!
Free Rape.
Who knew?
My granddaughter grew up with guns but when she went on her first hunt she decided that it wasn’t for her and so except for bows stopped shooting. Her parents sent her off to college with mace and a lot of self-defense tips.
I don’t know why but all of a sudden she wants a pistol and she wants to learn how to use it well. I can assure you her father got her the gun before she finished the whole sentence.
Get over it.
Voting for Liberal RINOs is why we are in this mess. Voting independent does not vote for a democrat or liberal.....only low information voters think that way.
If Obama joined the GOP you probably would immediately support him because he now has an R next to his name
Have you ever attended a meeting to help a conservative candidate? I bet not.
You just sit back and whine that others aren’t doing your work well enough. Just like all those other 3rd party losers.
"Great! I'll bring my raping shoes!"
I’m curious... When does the lack of quality in GOP(e) candidates, the lack of conservatism, become THEIR fault, and not each individual voter’s fault for not towing the party line?
Is there such a stage, in your view?
I've tried to contribute, but they have always made it clear that efforts to push the GOP to the Left are welcome, efforts to push the GOP to the Right are not.
My state is hopeless. Took me years to admit that, but it's just true.
If hope remains in your state, that's fine for you. But I see no reason to have hope in the GOP at the national level. Just like in MA, it's all Ivy League stuff now and that means Conservatism is shunned by the party.
Did I mention anything about towing the “party” line?
I’ve found the local GOP party to be very conservative but it needs more. I think we’re the largest county GOP in Florida.
So will they be able to send Elizabeth warren armed with a bow and arrows and dressed it full war paint after you if you don't bother to show up to what ever passes for a court in Indian country?
But seriously, virtually every legal scholar I've talked to says this provision is so blatantly unconstitutional and in conflict with prior Supreme Court rulings that it will most likely be struck down unanimously. It essentially gives any member of a Indian tribe the ability to charge any non- member with a crime, and arrest them to be tried under the tribes laws. They would essentially lose all their constitutional protections and rights to appeal.
“It expands the definition of domestic violence to include causing “emotional distress” or using “unpleasant speech”.”
And coverage has been expanded to men.
So, does that mean she can’t tell me that she’s breaking up with or divorcing me? I would certainly think that was “unpleasant speech” and it would cause me “emotional distress”.
