You voted for this. I voted to keep illegals out of the country, a better economy, and keep ghey weirdo guys out of womens sports. You spend 80% of your life whining about Trump as if anyone here gives a damn what you think or have to say. It's pathetic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How about we compromise and count them as 3/5ths of a person for congressional seat purposes? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Weird that they didn’t specify this at the time then, and people 150 years later claim to know what their “intent” was, especially since later SCOTUS cases reaffirmed things like birthright citizenship (of course that doesn’t mean they won’t change it again).

JB Pritzker rejects Texas Republicans' threat to arrest state Democrats: "Texas law does not apply in the state of Illinois, and there's no federal law that would allow the FBI to arrest anybody that's here visiting our state.

EternalShinyAndChrome 4,193 Posted Sunday at 04:53 PM I love how the Democrats are going to "fight" the Texas redistricting after they've all already redistricted the GOP in each of their states OUT of seats already.

BunnysBastatrds 2,477 Posted Sunday at 05:09 PM Reminds me when the Dem Shiots tried to pass law about the census only use %10 of American results. Of course, that went down faster than the chubbier.Sticky Vicky did. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How convenient after your states already gerrymandered and now you're sitting here complaining about it. How about you fix your states first before you get upset that the GOP is doing it? I mean, c'mon. You realize how convenient it is for you to say this, right? Like, YOUR gerrymanders are already in place and your asking "the other guys" not to do it, yet you still benefit from it.

supermike80 1,959 Posted Monday at 01:11 PM This discussion has to be one of the dumbest debates I have seen here. Both sides do it, have done it, and will continue to do it. No side is right in it. And for either side to complain about the other doing it is hypocritical as all get out. Just move on. Elections have consequences. This unfortunately is one of them. We all agree it's dumb and shouldn't happen. Yet, no one will vote to have it removed. So move the fock on. it's gonna happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
