Just because you are famous does not mean you know how to be a politician.
@Brian Walsh Wrong. Reagan had much to do with the decline of the Soviet Union. Scholar Kiron Skinner argued that Reagan developed and executed a multi-faceted strategy to exploit the weaknesses of the USSR to see that it collapsed. Reagan revitalized an already weak economy which saw CPI growth of 17%, private investment growth of 77% and economic growth of 4.6% annually throughout the 1980s. He set the stage for NAFTA, deregulated oil prices. He boosted military spending, which was a good thing. Black unemployment decreased and black incomes rose during his time in office. More blacks entered the middle class than ever before. The list goes on…
@Brian Walsh the fact that you resort to insulting my intelligence as a debate tactic shows me that you take these issues too personally. Is it not possible that two intelligent people can have differing opinions on the same issue? Is intelligence a zero-sum game such that if one side has it the other side doesn’t? Last I checked, diversity of thought and the ability to express oppositional viewpoints is what makes democracy great. I believe nothing you have said is nonsensical just like I believe nothing I’ve said is nonsensical. We’re simply interpreting the information from a different vantage point. That’s it. The fact that you can’t accept alternative viewpoints and seek to belittle them rather than show them respect by debating them honestly says more about you than it does about my beliefs.
Just because you have been in Politic for 50 years and have not done anything does not mean you know how to be President.
@John I didn’t insult your intelligence unless someone who disagrees with you is insulting your intelligence. Be specific how did I insult your intelligence as a debate tactic. You sound like you’re using DARVO to me.
Don’t be intimidated people really know how hard it was to vote in the past people died to vote. Here we go again. Praying for the family. It’s really sad that people have time to harass people just because they dropped off their vote.
It should be a federal crime to prevent, dissuade, intimidate or harass people from voting. Enough is enough.
@Peter van den Broek abortion?
@Joe Copeland lack of resources or how they choose to distribute those resources?
they have the resources to imprison more citizens than any other country, but they do not have the resources to investigate something every other first world country would prioritize?
@Alice Wright you’ll get no argument from me . Absolute misappropriation of resources.
I literally didn’t see anybody do anything. We all must have been watching two different videos.
@Peter van den Broek
It is.
*18 USC 241 Conspiracy against rights:* “If two or more persons conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District in the free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to him by the Constitution or laws of the United States, or because of his having so exercised the same…”
*18 USC 241 Federally protected activities:* (b) Whoever, whether or not acting under color of law, by force or threat of force willfully injures, intimidates or interferes with, or attempts to injure, intimidate or interfere with (1) any person because he is or has been, or in order to intimidate such person or any other person or any class of persons from (A) voting…; (B) participating in or enjoying any benefit, service, privilege, program, facility, or activity provided or administered by the United States…
The government needs to put a stop to this. Not just investigate it.
@Joggin McJoggerson I’m the type that will hold your head up to the lamp and pry your eyelids open before I let you say “I CANT SEE IT”
@Cratreaux So… What law was broken here snowflake?
Since it’s legal to sit where they’re sitting perhaps a news crew could stop by and interview each one of them, every day they are there.
Introduce Arizona to these people who are so diligently making other voters uncomfortable while they cast their vote.
Keep your cameras on them until the end of the last day of the election.
Keep your public informed.
@SeanPat1001 it’s different in different states. there should be a federal law for federal elections, and it should be 1,000 feet, for privacy, safety, and election security.
@Nonya Bizness thanks. I have been engaged with too many arguments over things such as this, that one would normally consider common sense. Now it seems like the ignorance is more intentional.
@Nonya Bizness you too, my new internet friend. I appreciate it.
@Nonya Bizness I don’t know if the thousand feet is practical, but having such a law for federal elections could be a good idea. Maybe you should write a short letter to your representative and to your senator. I prefer to use postcards.
Remember if anyone is following you in a car, do not drive home. Drive to the police station or a public place where you can call the police, somewhere with lots of witnesses
they can follow me and my bike to the ‘Clubhouse’, we’ll have a ‘chat’.
Amazing how bullies aren’t even aware that other people have rights but cry about their rights being violated!
It’s creepy watching American democracy come to an end in real time.
Voter intimidation is illegal. The penalty should be 10 years in jail with no early release!!!
@mark johnson how the hell would you even stuff ballot.
It should be 50 years in prison for voter intimidation
@Pappy’s Life should be 100 years for ballot stuffing
These people are doing EVERYTHING they accuse everyone of doing.
How can you be committing voter fraud while casting one lousy ballot? And how can you identify a “mule” from 75 feet away? These people really have to get a life.
How do you know it was only one vote?
@Daniel Clark because they are pre programmed with the story….& also why they our outraged by video evidence of video with no evidence.
@Daniel Clark
How do you know the sky is really blue?
Don’t let them intimidate you. In fact, if Arizona is a “stand your ground state”, you know what to do. All that matters is if you feel threatened, not their intentions.
@bellfaith 10 you totally aren’t the triggered one with your multiple tantrums about “voter fraud” and “cheating” all over your account. It’s totally not you. Aww, you poor thing 😂😂
@bellfaith 10 bless your heart, you think no one else is laughing at you 😂😂😂
@D A …what?
@A. Hayden well your the one taking the time to creep their account. So maybe you are a little bit triggered yourself
@Shane Alan did you forget you can see people’s comments by clicking on their pfp? That’s not creeping, ❄️. 😂😂 you sound more triggered than she did! You poor thing!
These people need to be identified, and prosecuted. Intimidation is wrong, and a crime. More than that, it’s a criminal conspiracy.
@effthegop
Jesus, do you actually read or just skim the comments? Skirting the law means to avoid the rules without breaking the law. Still doesn’t mean it’s right but we get where you’re coming from; you’re one of those folks who scream about their rights to get up in peoples faces. Just stop, it’s embarrassing we’re from the same country.
@Eks Bocks Back you up where?
@effthegop
Personally, if I knew this were happening in my area, I would just cover my plates and tell anyone who questioned me to piss off but it does intimidate people. They wouldn’t be doing this if it didn’t.
@Hillsane unfortunately , im talking about this video.
Trying to intimidate people into not coming out. Don’t let it happen. This is too important
I literally didn’t see anybody do anything. We all must have been watching two different videos.
Don’t let the traitors intimidate you! Vote them all out!
@Gweilo lol proof ? There was proof of black Panthers doing this in Philadelphia in 2008
@Ralph aaahh, 2 guys, one is asked to leave – and does – the other is a certified poll watcher who stays. No further incident…
Yeah- NO! Sounds nothing like this cluster fuk.
Abraham, nothing is coming to an end. Because these people who seem to be itching for a fight are going to end up regretting the path they choose. Too many good men and women have given their lives for us to allow a minority that keeps presenting themselves as a larger group, thinking they’re going to steal democracy from those of us who cherish it.
Right behind you brother. Remember the loudest ones are usually the weakest. We know where they’re at; they can’t shut up.
They won’t even hear us coming.
@Fishing with Rick , Remember, it’s not up to man, but it’s up to God, leave the Master in Charge. He’ll show ’em Who power belongs to! Yahweh the living God is King!
@Demetrius Dion Amen!🙏🙏🙏
@Russell Snodgrass , My mother always said, “An empty train makes more noise than a full one. What most Americans don’t tend to realize is that the Republican base is only 30% of America voters, the other 70% of American voters consist of Democrates and Independents. All we have do, is get out and vote regardless of the circumstances: Make your vote count!
I don’t care what anyone’s politics are, I believe in the sanctity and the right to vote for anyone who is legally eligible, without fear or suppression. This is a protected right that should be encouraged, regardless of persuasion, and is something we should be able to take for granted in this country.
I really hope that these deplorables are held to account. That is the GOP’s greatest fear…people voting.
Help is available if you just ask for it.
Lol so I guess the black Panthers in Philadelphia in 2008 was Republicans lol
Really? we’ll see about that in January.
It’s creepy that so many of our friends, neighbors, acquaintances, fellow Americans became crazy and out of touch of reality. It’s shocking how people can be like that.
I blame trump for this. I can’t help but wonder how different things would be if he never became president.
@Str8apem8 Or if Kelly Ann Conway would have never said the words “Alternative Fact”. Just to mention one phrase.
