Violence and mob rule is wrong and un-American, and it will not bring about election reform.

Today’s mayhem sets back any intelligent debate for a generation. Just stop it.— Senator Rand Paul (@RandPaul) January 6, 2021

Oh blow it out your ears. Debate was murdered by the left years ago. You’d think that after getting assaulted you would have figured it out. Trump’s people didn’t shoot anybody.

It was Federal cops who shot an unarmed woman. They probably thought she was holding a baby.

When was the last time there was an intelligent debate in DC?

I agree that violence and mayhem are not the answer, but, our politicians have closed EVERY LAST door on ANY kind of discussion or debate or even a second look at VERY questionable occurrences.

I don’t agree but understand people being frustrated to violent actions.
The politicians have been BEGGING for it.

Bulllshiite, Sen. Paul. There’s been no “intelligent debate” in D.C. for two decades or more. Our Republic needs an enema.

We were all wondering what Civil war would look like. I think we’ve just found out...

Dear Rand, may we discuss a fraudulent stolen election ? The so called riots are lamestream lies and you know how true I speak .....

No, Twitter and Facebook have banned intelligent debate.

Where the hell was Rand Paul last year when the leftists burnt down how many American cities?

What do you mean? He had plenty to say about it. He was even attacked himself. More than once.

FURP! Bowing to tyranny is what is truly un-American. I’m tired of being told to behave and keep in my place.

Senator Paul, if there can’t be reasoned debate for
a generation America as founded is over.
Our founders warned us against this very thing.

Rand, you are a maroon. In what universe would our communist comrades ever agree to election reform that actually ensures honest elections? Does the mafia all of a sudden and on their own decide and say, hey, I think we will make boxing and horse racing honest again!

Harris called for ongoing protests, violence, takeover of cities, destruction burning and riots long after the election. Where was the Commie/Dem outrage when Harris refused to condemn violence?

But of course the last ten months of rioting and insurrection
didn’t cause that.

Thanks Paul...

Nothing’s stopping you clowns from having your “intelligent” debate, jackass.

Thats been dead for 20 years. You all failed to listen to the people and as sad as it is the cowardice of every institution shown as a result of the summer riots shows that this is exactly how you get reform.

“Folks, it’s beginning to look a lot like we’ve been hoodwinked by all of them.”

Yeah, a pox on both their houses.

I’m glad I’m entering the end of my years, because this country has turned into a clown show. We made a good run of it, though, for about 200 years.

It will become mandatory that the next American generation learn to speak Mandarin.
