With all the wailing and gnashing of teeth going on over the Supreme Court’s decision to end Roe vs. Wade and pass the lawmaking onus on to the states, the court’s decision to overturn New York’s ban on conceal carry and other gun rights might get buried in the chaos. Extreme leftist and corporate “journalist” Keith Olbermann certainly had a lot to say about it, though.
Incensed by the idea that a government body might actually rule against common leftist policy, the calls for violence and even (*gasp) insurrection have been rising. Specifically, the left believes that intimidation or outright dissolution of the Supreme Court is justifiable.
Olbermann argues for exactly that, while also presenting a bizarre assertion that states should ignore the decision and violate our 2nd Amendment rights anyway because they are “just a court” and “can’t enforce the ruling.” One could apply the same logic and say that the states should have ignored Roe vs. Wade and made abortion illegal this entire time because the Supreme Court “can’t enforce the ruling.”
One factor that Olbermann also seems to overlook is the reality that the people of a particular state could also ignore the state government’s attempts to enforce unconstitutional gun laws. How is New York going to compel the citizenry to give up their gun rights if millions of them take up arms and refuse to submit? Two can play that game, and this dynamic never crosses Olbermann’s mind.
The left appears to be intent to abandon any semblance of diplomacy or checks and balances to get what they want, but they may be greatly overestimating their chances should political disagreement turn into physical conflict.
He is shur smart...
Not on your life, Keith. Do us all a favor and shove it.
It would be far more “progressive” to simply dissolve the democrat party. It never does anyone any good anyway. In fact I’d call it an anchor around the necks of every decent America loving Patriotic American.
Its more likely that Olbermann would grow a real head of hair than the Supreme Court will be dissolved.
Does he still have a leg tingle?
I call for Keith Olbermann to be dissolved......in a drum full of acid. /s
It would be more fun to dissolve Keith Littleoldman. I thought this guy died from Monkeypox.
Be interesting what would be if all the precedents were gone.
Hmm..
Google Search Keith Olbermann
Uh, click images...
eeeeehhh...dang.
Is there a solvent for dissolving the Worst Sportscaster Ever! ?
How about we shove KO into a vat of acid and watch him dissolve. OK, maybe a little extreme.
I’m calling for Keith Oberdork to be committed to the state loony bin for the mentally insane 🤪
Arizona tried to save their state by enforcing immigration law. Obongo took them to the SC and Roberts sided with the libs and Arizona was smacked smacked down. So l guess AZ should resume their effort to save the state.
its just so typical
obey government until it doesn’t go your way, then to hell with government
this though is really why the country can’t keep going the way it is
we need cwii to just deal with the liberal socialists, they can’t live in peace if they don’t get what they want, they get violent and won’t leave people alone
Olbermann could have a lucrative career playing psycho stalkers in “Lifetime” movies. If he goes in your kitchen, make sure he doesn’t get anywhere near the knife block.
greatly overestimating their chances should political disagreement turn into physical conflict.
The fact that the progs could ever believe they would prevail in an actual physical conflict is proof enough most of them require confinement as they are a threat to the general public as well as themselves.
.
He was pearl clutching about right wing extremist “threats to our democracy” last week. Today he wants to kick the props out from under it’s third leg.
That picture of Olby looks like he just got the monkeypox
Can we get rid of him instead.
