    There’s a bit of a difference though between:

    “I like cheeseburgers.” And “Maybe we ought to kill a couple legislators if we don’t get our way.”

    I could be wrong though.

      cheeseburgers aren’t in the constitution, but there is a bit about the right of the people to keep and bear arms that a lot of democrats seem to overlook, and of course the entire 9th and 10th amendment get trampled pretty often. i think the 4th and 5th amendments are just kept around for posterity. even the enumerated powers of congress are ignored when the president wants to start a war.

      what i’m saying is that the accusation of picking and choosing is correct, but that doesn’t disqualify them as patriots.

        But they are in the Bible, hence my point. Weird how the recent the current interpretation of the second amendment is about the unfettered rights of arms and acceptable places. That wasn’t held up when tried closer to when the people who wrote it were still living.

          frankly, i don’t believe in rights at all, and i think the whole sham that anyone actually governs according to the document ought to be exposed for what it is, so i don’t actually care about the text. i’m saying that everyone who claims to care about it picks and chooses.

            Weird boldly coming out with a pro slavery, anti bodily autonomy stance in public on the internet in the year of our lord 2024. But here we are…

            I think you ended up so open minded your brain must have fallen out 50 miles back.

              i’m not pro-slavery. i just think it’s wrong without the fiction of rights. i think people ought to have bodily autonomy. i don’t need to invoke rights.

      no one credibly tried to kill any legislators tho.

      and some of the rhetoric i’ve seen about legislators who support the j6ers indicate that this isn’t a matter of one side feeling absolutely justified an any actions they think are necessary to deal with traitors, if you catch my drift.
