Yes, its that new age of Democrat political civility rearing its ugly head yet again. During an April 12 debate on gun control Pennsylvania State Representative Margo Davidson of Philadelphia wondered aloud on the House floor if it might be OK for her to blow the brains out of one of Pennsylvanias Republican Representatives.
Before we even go on with this story, imagine if a white, male, and Republican politician had asked during a debate on policy if it would be OK if he blew the brains out of a black, female, Democrat. Just imagine what would be happening to such a man should he have done this. Certainly his name would be on the lips of every TV newscaster for at least a week after he said such an outrageous thing. Movements would be born to oust him from his elected position. Colleagues would be condemning him. Race-baiters would be flocking to the state for vigils. Further his own party would be denouncing him in no uncertain terms.
But what we have here is a black female, a Democrat from a big city, and no one is paying any attention at all. Obviously it is not a big deal. Apparently we are expected to just move on as if there is nothing wrong with a black woman expressing the desire to kill her political opponent.
Double standard is the nicest thing I can say about it.

Ghetto-stupid Representative of the People.
"Mr. Jackson...if we removed all of the crime committed by black males between the ages of 16 and 29, the US would have a lower crime rate that Switzerland."
For the first time EVER, Jackson had nothing to say.
The Republican lawmaker for whom the remark was intended should swear out a complaint, have the woman arrested, and let the legal process work. We are a nation of laws, and until we hold people accountable, they will continue to behave outrageously.
Oops..got their positions on gun control backwards...Jesse for it, Orin against it.
Her brother was shot and killed in his home by a drug dealer, yet she opposes the castle doctrine law? That doesn’t make a whole lot of sense.

Orin Hatch said THAT?! I didn't think he had the balls.
It was on a Sunday talk show years ago...live. You could tell that Orin was at the end of his rope listening to Jackson stir the pot. He literally just blurted it out. Jackson was stunned and had nothing to say.
"There! G_d Da_n You! Take That!"
Now if Trump said something like that, we would be the nominee for sure!
This illustrates several problems with the liberal/leftist
mindset. One: It’s all about feelings; there’s nothing else
upon which to base a legal conclusion of threat or danger.
Ergo, a principled opposition on the floor of the legistlature
cannot be distinguished from a early a.m. home invasion.
Two: If it’s all about feelings, the RKBA must be abrogated
since that’s the only “gun control” possible. They truly
do fear that anyone might kill anyone over anything.
Three: They don’t recognize the role of self defence,
apart from exceptions for themselves.
bttt, because MORE at FR should see this...
