I don't like idiot demoncRats, but you can't almost kill a sitting member of Congress because you're upset, and not get your ass kicked to the curb for a decade or so.
It's an attack on our government, as well a disenfranchisement of the voters who by a majority voted the guy in, whether we like it or not.
Even the squad should be free from an attack of this sort. They should be impeached, but that's another story.
“It’s an attack on our government, as well a disenfranchisement of the voters who by a majority voted the guy in, whether we like it or not.”
If Elijah Cummings had this happen to him, I’d feel the same way I do about Rand Paul: 20 years hard time, for the above reason. And that’s _above and beyond_ the injury to the person.
And, the earlier decision was also racist and discriminatory. Let’s face it, people of lesser means don’t have the same opportunities to become “educated, upstanding (whatever the heck that means) members of the community”. It was an absolute outrage of privileges and biases.
When this guy is in jail and outside in the jailyard with his mind occupied pruning shrubs, the inmates convince a huge linebacker type to take a running shot at the guy and hit him in the same way he hit Rand Paul.
That would be true justice.
