Appreciate ya.
So, no Free Republic in Michigan?
Had to be my state, huh?
Due to the popularity of the pro-abortion amendment (passed), lots of women and young voters rushed to vote Dem. Thus, now we have the wretched Gretchen Whitmer backed for the first time in decades with a Dem House and Dem Senate and Attorney General and Sec. of State.
They are boldly working to bring Chinese Communist style Dem/Soros totalitarianism to Michigan.
When anyone may assert they experienced "severe mental anguish," and that this "effect" demonstrates "hate speech," any one of us could allege the same over and over again. The state and courts would be tied in knots. And by the way, I am offended deeply and mentally anguished over the wording of the proposed law! Class action law suit against the state and legislature!
I’m on the edge of 51% wanting to force myself to stay alive one day at a time and 49% wanting the relief of death.
Free Republic helps me find reasons to stay alive.
God bless all here.
Bob Dylan quote in Still On the Road by Clinton Heylin, p.424:
“I try to live within that line between despondency and hope. I’m suited to walk that line, right between the fire.”
“a hate crime if that person intimidates or harasses another individual”
Good God, there are so many ways that can be interpreted. “That Trump hat intimidates and harasses me! Arrest him!”
It’ll be struck down immediately, but I’d love for Michiganders to start suing people for using “cis-gender” as a hurtful word.
Nuts. Clearly unconstitutional.
I suspect that’s why they are clearing out the prisons of murders and rapists. Can’t have over-crowding you know! The courts frown sharply on such things. Therefore release the thugs and lock up the conservatives.
> Unconstitutional but will probably pass <
The proposed law is obviously unconstitutional. If it gets to the Supreme Court it would be immediately struck down.
That’s for now. After a few more Democrat appointments, the law will pass muster.
The only question is how the Court would explain that it is constitutional.
kudos to fellow Michigander, telling it like it is.
“Class action law suit against the state and legislature!”
Good idea!
I know what you mean. I live in Wayne county, and it doesn’t feel like my vote is worth a damn. Not that our reps at the state level did much that I can think of while they still held majorities. Voted against Props 1, 2, & 3 last year, just reading them on the ballot I knew there was more bad things in each that somebody who knows/knew better wouldn’t want. I grew up here, but as of now the plan is to retreat to friendlier lines once my aging parents have passed on.
A campaign sign on your lawn could be considered hate speech
The Satanic anti-Christian Left is pushing for a reaction all over the world so they can have an excuse to kill us all. That’s their plan and I’m sticking to it.
Thanks!
I don’t see how this will pass SCOTUS. It is a clear 1st amendment violation.
No subsequent tyrannical nation implementing thought control has ever come close to the current global environment and its thought control technologies...
Particularly in the communist-controlled United States...
