Another Stupid Idea from the Donkey Side of the Aisle
Should someone send Rep. Robert Brady a copy of the First Amendment?
According to The Hill, the Democratic lawmaker “plans to introduce legislation that would make it a federal crime to use language or symbols that could be perceived as threatening or inciting violence against a federal official or member of Congress.”
Let’s think about that for a moment. “A federal crime”: that’s a serious matter, right? And for what? For using “language or symbols that could be perceived as threatening or inciting violence against a federal official or member of Congress.” My emphasis.
“Could be perceived as . . .” Rep. Brady (who is, by the way, up for reelection again in two years) singled out the now-famous target map on Sarah Palin’s Facebook page: “You can’t put bull’s-eyes or crosshairs on a United States congressman or a federal official,” said Brady.
Really? You Dems do it all the time. And bully for you. “Targeted,” “Crosshairs,” Bull’s eye”: they’re called figures of speech, Bob. Just as when you “campaign” for your seat, it’s a figure drawn from the world of military activity. The president of the United States advises his acolytes to follow “The Chicago Way”: “If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun.” What d’ya think, Bob, is that an incitement to violence? Does it foster a “climate of hate”? Or is it figurative speech in a political context and understood to be so by all mentally competent adults?
Occasionally you hear about some innocent yokel who is taken to see a play by Shakespeare. All goes swimmingly until the Desdemona is throttled by Othello. Then the fellow leaps on to the stage to avenge the heroine.
Is our friend Bob, public servant from Pennsylvania, like that yokel?
So the liberals are all on fire to put the
“hate speech” laws on steroids?
Perfect.
Next time the right has a solid majority,
all we have to do is add ” anti-American speech/activity”
to the hate crimes list.
Then put ‘em all on a boat for Brazil.
Oh yea, I like that idea.
A leaky boat!
Perhaps the Social Democrats are confident that they will always have the enforcement arm IE: the White House. Food for thought?
Brazil? Why?
Send them to Uncle Fidel who’ll provide them free health care. That’s the least we could do for our ex-country men.
IS CARRYING THE AMERICAN FLAG A CRIME! CAN I GO TO JAIL FOR YRS, PAY A LARGE FINE? SAY GOD BLESS AMERICA W/O GETTING HURT BY A LARGE FIST, LET ME KNOW PLEAS, BEFOR I DO ANY OF THE ABOVE.
GOD BLESS
Fine, Rep. Brady, but lets make it retroactive to 2000. We’ll start making a prison big enough for all the Bush haters who used violent rhetoric. Wall up North Dakota and throw them in there, perhaps.
That is a great idea, Mxymaster.
What did the poor North Dakotans ever do to deserve being locked up with these boneheads?
Scratch a liberal;find a Stalinist.Put this freedom-hating Brady turd in the Tea party crosshairs and annihilate his political career!
…the Democratic lawmaker “plans to introduce legislation that would make it a federal crime to use language or symbols that could be perceived as threatening or inciting violence against a federal official or member of Congress.”
I’m sorry, could you be a little more vague, here? And will someone please explain to me why federal officials or members of Congress should be given legal tools not available to other citizens?
As a native Arizonan, I couldn’t believe it when the media (and the Journolist successors like the Coffee Party) started up with the “Palin wuz responsible! She needs to apologize NOW!” narratives. The victims barely got to the hospital before the spinners were ginning up the talking points. I knew they had no shame, but they went indecently fast at trying to get out their narrative, facts be damned.
Pima County and Tucson are as deep blue as it gets. I don’t think you’re ALLOWED to be Republican there, at least not in public.
If my progressive friend goes off one more time about her “reality-based community”, I think I’m gonna laugh so hard something will rupture.
From the desk of President B. Hussein Obama:
Dear Comrades and citizens of amerikkka,
In light of the recent treacherous murders committed by Sarah Palin’s acolyte, I must call on all of you people who are truly of good will to cease the hateful, divisive and seditious language which has plagued this country of late. Quite frankly, this violence comes as a surprise to no one who has paid any attention whatsoever to the demagogues of the fascistic Republican party and their willing accomplices on the airwaves of talk radio and Fox news. It is time for the unpatriotic, bigoted bile which spews from these people to come to an end, by whatever means necessary.
As I have stated before, if My opponent brings a knife to a fight, then I will bring a gun. You people out there in flyover country had better pay close attention here. I am tired of having to tell you to clean up your act. Your insistence on bitterly clinging to your guns and bibles is the root cause of the disease of racism and violence which infects this pathetic excuse for a country. It’s high time I proved to you that I will indeed bring my gun up against your knives, so either end your petulant whining or I’ll have to end it for you.
Just as I told My Hispanic friends during the recent campaign, it’s time for Me to punish My enemies. Your incendiary comments are without any shadow of a doubt the cause of the recent shooting that has rocked this nation. You people are always trying to block My Great Plan for this country and the rest of the world, always screaming and complaining about your so-called “rights” and your pathetic “constitution” which is over a hundred years old, for crying out loud. How is anybody supposed to understand something that old? Face it, you just don’t know what’s good for you, but you will soon enough. Like I said, I punish My enemies.
I promised you rednecks out there that if you took the Congress away from Me and My party there would be hand to hand combat. Well now you’re going to get it. I am sick and tired of your violent hate speech and the violent actions of your crazed veterans out there. One of My congresswomen from Arizona has already assured me this shooter was a veteran of the war in Afghanistan, which of course means this is all Bush’s fault. Of course it’s all Palin and Limbaugh’s fault also, but don’t worry, there’s plenty of one-hundred per-cent fault to go around for all of My enemies who need to be punished.
I’m reminded of My good buddy Joe Biden, who said a while back he’d like to strangle any Republican who talked about balancing the budget. Joe was right on, he just didn’t go far enough. We need to strangle and Republican who launches investigations into My czars and their noble work. We need to strangle Republicans who want to try to repeal My Great Health Care Bill. We need to strangle Republicans who have poll numbers that show they might have a chance against Me in 2012. And we definitely need to strangle each and every member of the nefarious Tea-bagger movement. So cut the violent rhetoric out there already!
As My good friend and mentor Bill Ayers always tells Me, I have to be able to function without regret. Hey, Bill killed three cops and he doesn’t have any regrets! Maybe it’s because he doesn’t engage in the violent, crazed, right-wing agit-prop against My Greatness that is going on in the country right now. Let’s face it, if it weren’t for the Tea-baggers, Sarah Palin, Rush Limbauh, Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity and Fox News, there wouldn’t be any violence in amerikkka. Well believe you Me, when I bring a gun to the fight, punish my enemies, engage in hand-to-hand combat and strangle Republicans, I won’t have any regrets at all. So knock off all the violent rhetoric out there before somebody else gets hurt. After all, it’s not like I don’t know how to use the Chicago Way.
Your Leader in the Struggle,
President for Life B. Hussein Obama
LMAO…that was GREAT!!
i usually don’t read the long posts after the 1st 12 or 15 words, but i read every last syllable [& re-read parts. too!] you are a borderline genius…w/out a doubt! thanx for a really great post! i loved the sign-off…
From the Obamatons:
We hear, Great Leader and we will obey!
The Republicans will volubly stand up for free speech, for about a second. Then, in the spirit of compromise, they’ll join hands across the aisle to allocate millions for more “anti-hate speech” interventions and “anti-bullying” workshops that will further re-educate the next generation into submission.
That way, everyone (everyone in Congress, that is) wins.
The First Amendment has protected us from the sort of censorship that is rapidly being normalized in Canada and Britain in the name of “anti-hate.” But within a generation or two, the Amendment itself will be utterly incoherent to youth here who are being trained to vigilantly internalize self-recrimination and censor their own thoughts in the name of insensitivity.
Poor kids; I feel sorry for them. At least when I was young, my (liberal) teachers encouraged me to read books, not turn in my classmates anonymously, as is happening now. At the entrance to all the the public libraries in my county, large posters illustrated with a clenched fist encourage children to report each other to the sheriff’s office (!) if they witness “bullying.”
“Take charge, report a bully, and remain anonymous!” the posters cheer. This is what you get to walk by on your way to signing out a copy of 1984 (for now, at least).
Whenever I pass one of these signs, I think of irony choking to death.
You’ve got it, Tina! Anyone who thinks that “nice little Canada” is “the true North strong and FREE” is engaging in fantasy.
Our Human Rights (sic) Commissions, with their attached kangaroo courts, are an abomination. Yes, if even one person—only lefties need apply—even PERCEIVES a grievance, the defendant—always a “person of the right”, such as Mark Steyn (he’s Canadian!), Ezra Levant, etc.—is considered guilty and must use his own resources to fight the charge. The accuser—usually a feminist, Muslim, or gay rights activist—has to produce no evidence, other than hurt feelings, and has all his/her costs paid for by the state. The accuser doesn’t even have to show up at the hearing—or let the accused know his/her name. Oh, and truth is no defence: if the accuser’s feelings are hurt by the truth spoken/written by the defendant, that’s enough to convict.
“Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi, you’re my only hope”: substitute “the United States of America” for Obi-Wan Kenobi. If the USA can’t get out of this one, as one of my students likes to say, “We’re all doomed!!”
God bless America!
What happened to my response–favourable–to Tina @ #7?
She mentioned Canada and, hours ago, I gave a factual outline of Canada’s “human rights” kangaroo courts and the related abrogation of rights and due process we have here, but there’s no sign of my comment. ???
I guess my request kick started one of the moderators. I’m grateful. Thanks.
Apparently this putz didn’t bother to listen as the Constitution was read on the house floor. If I remember right, Rep Giffords was the one that read the first amendment.
I’m interested in hearing what her opinion of this legislation is.
What an idiot.
Hell, he’s probably never read it. And if he has, he probably holds it in contempt. After all, it prevents him and his ilk from “hope and changing” the United States of America into The People’s Republic of Amerika.
Mr. Kimball:
“Should someone send Rep. Robert Brady a copy of the First Amendment?
According to The Hill, the Democratic lawmaker “plans to introduce legislation that would make it a federal crime to use language or symbols that could be perceived as threatening or inciting violence against a federal official or member of Congress.”"
Perhaps Speaker Boehner needs to have the Constitution read aloud AGAIN on the floor, reserving to Congressman Brady to read the First Amendment.
Maybe he should be made to write the First Amendment on a blackboard 1000 times…
On the other hand such a law, fairly enforced, would effectively muzzle so much of our barking moonbat chums that we’d all be rushing to audiologists out of concern that we’d been stricken deaf.
There is no way to “fairly enforce” tyranny.
Moonbats are annoying, but the only response to their insanity and lies is to DEAL WITH IT. Trying to silence someone, even when they are saying things that are wholly untrue and despicable, is not the answer. The answer is to put forth stronger arguments than they are capable of. This is usually pretty easy when the truth is on your side.
Could Mr. Kimball and some others stop assuming that the extreme left of the “Donkey side” has good intentions, but just bad ideas. They have bad intentions and ideas that, to them, are good for implementing them. They are totalitarians. Period. The sooner you accept this obvious fact, the sooner you will stop describing overt manifestations of their tyrannical ambitions like this as “bad ideas”. An attempt to create a mechanism for criminalizing political speech does not even warrant the label of “idea” to begin with.
this: bad intentions + bad designs + bad execution
I don’t recall any congressional demands for restriction of free speech when Nicholson Baker published a novel about the assassination of George W. Bush or when Philip Roth imagined a caricature of the anti-abortion Richard Nixon ending up in a giant water filled baggy ( I haven’t read the Baker novel, rather liked the Roth , disagreed with RMN about abortion but do not think he should have ended up etc ). For a member of congress to try to make political capital over a colleague’s bullet riddled body is disgusting. Was there no one in the House to ask Rep Brady, in Atty Joseph Welch’s words to Sen Joe McCarthy,” have you at long last , sir , no sense of decency ?”
Members of the legislative and executive branches and many other government officials are generally immune to prosecution for offenses committed in the performance of their duties (such as making speeches in Congress), while traveling to and from the places where their respective official duties are performed and in various other circumstances.
Although I am unaware of any case dealing with it, it seems likely that almost everything done by the President would enjoy the same immunity. Many of President Obama’s statements, cited in the article, could easily be “perceived as threatening or inciting violence against a federal official or member of Congress.” His targets have often included (or could easily be perceived as including) folks in those categories.
Has the (doubtless) Honorable Mr. Brady sought to include in his bill an exemption from immunity for the President and those members of the Congress, etc. who violate it? That seems unlikely. However, it is probably not important because his bill is so incredibly subjective, vague and so obviously violative of the First Amendment that (a) it is highly unlikely to pass in the new House of Representatives and (b) should it pass any court would likely find that prosecution under it does not even pass the “laugh test.”
Michelle Malkin has an excellent article documenting the cycle of Democrat/Left hatred and psychosis that spans many years:
http://michellemalkin.com/2011/01/10/the-progressive-climate-of-hate-an-illustrated-primer-2000-2010/
Here’s hoping Brady’s political career is DETONATED big time in two years.
The left is out to demonize good Americans – again….. How do they do it…. watch this , start with part 2…. get answers here- http://www.marcrubin.com/dada2.ivnu
If there is an environment of hate and incivility, the Left has largely created it: they have become so blatantly power hungry that it’s difficult to take anything they say seriously; they appear to be brain dead. They care nothing about issues; it’s all self-serving agenda for them.
By the way: In the last election, the Daily Kos made Rep. Giffords a target: http://hillbuzz.files.wordpress.com/2011/01/screen-shot-2011-01-08-at-3-05-33-pm.png
For those of us who actually remember being schoolkids, one thing you got to figure out along the course of your recesses was that letting someone have their say can head off a fight.
That’s right, unfettered speech allows kids to vent their anger and frustration and can clear the air for future reconciliation. Or, alternatively, it can help them spot the psycho nutcases faster so that they can steer clear of them.
When politicians start suggesting coercive means to solve problems that wouldn’t even work in a schoolyard, it really puts their competence into question.
Robert Brady can be interpreted by any loopy conspiracy theorist worth a crossword clue as “bad by terror” or “do, barber, try!” I don’t know about you but, though ordinarily a calm and peaceful cove, I feel a strange compulsion to commit acts of terror when I read his name. If we make anagrams from Rep. Robert A. Brady, we get “Do try rape, Barber!” or “Dare part robbery!” Ye gods, his very name is an obvious incitement to violence! He must be banned forthwith, clearly.
Clever chap that he is, and not wishing to be outdone, the Honorable Mr. Clyburn (D-SC) has opined as follows:
Clearly, he is correct. The Constitution is the source of all evil and its public (as well as private) reading must be banned. Judges must be prohibited from referring to and considering it in their deliberations and attorneys must be prohibited from citing it. Incendiary though it might seem to the unenlightened masses, the original and all copies must be burned. That would moot my frivolous objections noted in Comment # 12.
Obviously, the Honorable Mr. Brady needs to consult with the Honorable Mr. Clyburn and together they must jointly author a bill including these necessary provisions. I feel safer already!
Perhaps the time has come for blanket amnesty for all illegal aliens; they cannot possibly be as ignorant of the United States and what she stands for as various Honorable members of the Congress.
I don’t know about anyone else, but I’m afraid to shop at Target stores now.
Great! New job opening in the Obama Admin….”Hate/Threatening Speech Perception Czar”
Obama’s peeps will be out on the Sunday talk shows demanding unWarm & unFuzzy Justice.
With all the Liberal Hysteria of the last few days …
I though long and hard about the ‘vitriol’ in this country and came to a sensible and perhaps a true assumtion (my opinion) conclusion:…
I conclude ( my opinion ) from all the vitriol out there, ‘if’ there is ‘anyone’ to blame or ‘attack’ ?? – It is our (Public/Liberal) “Educational System” that has created the ‘vitriol’ in this Country. And I say this because for the past 50 years [ since the 60′s ] our “Educational System” has been a “Liberal Left” teaching ‘tool’ by “Design”? A “one way” (left) thought process, and to dissent is not an option. I include many “Liberal Left” Colleges as well. Since a lot of these institutions receive federal funding, doesn’t that make it come full circle?
How about throwing our own “Leader” into the mix he ‘is’ the tone setter for vitirol.
For a documented picture history (Back to 2001) most are from CA and ‘the Most’ Liberal/Left College in the US – Berkley for Left Wing Vitriol visit: “Zombietime.com”. Also Michelle Malkin has a good pic documention of Liberal vitirol on her site today as well …
Brady’s idea is great if it ALSO applies to members of Congress, like Paul Kanjorski saying Rick Scott should shot.
You know, I’d like to regulate hate speech too. I think it would be wonderful if the liberal left could contain their anti-semitic rhetoric; their wild and personal hatred of Sarah Palin, whose politics they barely understand; the Bush Derangement Syndrome; President Obama’s talk of taking a gun to a knife fight; and all those hateful targets they mapped across the country against the GOP.
Yet, it is not the principle enshrined in our Bill of Rights.
I understand they’re passionate about their causes, if not entirely rational. So are we. It is the sound of a vibrant democratic discussion. I hope it never stops.
Let us temper our passion with the realism that politics is a necessary evil, for them as well as for us. One thing I would wish upon us all is a bit less personal vitriol, and a bit more circumspect understanding of the issue at hand. For everything that Ann Coulter says, they have Keith Olberman. Let us realize that neither of them are offering much illumination leading us instead to the dark heat of snarky, pointless conflict.
And those who think this notion is a good thing to do? Be careful what you ask for…
To call this idea “studpid” is too restrained. In an effort to have no more Tuscon massacres, the Democrats would make paranoid schizophrenics the arbiters of our political discourse. That isn’t stupid, it’s insane.
“If they bring a knife to the fight, we bring a gun!”
- Barack Obama
Are they really prepared for the unintended consequences?
Only In America!
The Democrats target Palin and the Tea-Partiers and the Germans targeted the Jews. Same game plan by the same mindset.
May we please have some evidence that “the Tea-Partiers . . . targeted Jews”?
Please don’t feed the troll.
This is more pap from the inhabitants of the hypocritical land of subjectivism.
The party of the braying ass has made careers out of attacking republicans going as far back as Richard Nixon.
NOW we have to tone it down?!
These people want to create an intellectual gray zone of ambivalence where a moral compass would just spin without any indication of right or wrong.
This bogus attack on the tea party and conservative Republicans is straight out of the marxist playbook. It is all about control, control, control, and is not about making things better for this country.
Note to Republicans in Congress: do not cave in to the game the Marxists are playing regarding moving ahead with stopping Obamacare, spending, repressive regulations. We the people are smart enought to figure out what the Marxists are trying to do which is to once again put Republicans on the defensive and negate the election results. Full speed ahead with legislation and damn the Marxist torpedoes. We the people can figure out for ourselves the truth about this tragedy and what is “repectful and appropriate” behavior. Remember the Marxists Democrats do not know right from wrong and therefore have no concept of what is either respectful or appropriate behavior.
“a federal crime to use language or symbols that could be perceived …”
=======
Could be perceived by …….?
Thank you for this vigorous defense of first amendment rights.
Let me quote legendary Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglass:
“The idea that the First Amendment permits punishment for ideas that are “offenseive” to a particular judge or jury is astounding. The First Amendment was not fashioned as a vehicle for dispensing tranquilizers to the people.”
Douglas also wrote, “I interpret the words “Congress shall make no law abridging the right of free speech’ to mean Congress shall make no law abridging the right of free speech” in an 1-8 dissent.
Where is the ACLU when you need them?
The only cure for these times is a whole new Congress and replace them at regular intervals. We are continually barraged with their attempts at ignoring and legislatung against the Constitution. It is so difficult to impeach these people that replacing is the only option. The American people are getting handed the short end constantly and they deserve better than this. The legislators that have been there for 2-3-4-5-6 terms have no new ideas. These people are bereft of new thoughts…just protecting their fiefdom.
We deserve better.
This is the first test of the New Majority.
All of this is predictable. It is standard issue from the Democrat’s playbook.
The only suspense is; will the we get rolled by this or simply dismiss it as the tempest in a teapot that it is?
The Republicans & Tea Party need to learn to continue on their course in the face of whipped up hysteria. It is how the Democrats play the game. As soon as this dies down, they will be stirring up new trouble. We have to get used to this as the normal operating environment.
The power of the Speaker is the power to schedule. The Democrats can introduce all the bills they want. Refer them to the proper committee and get on with business. Do not hold hearings or bring them to the floor unless we have the votes in hand to defeat them. Play the game to win.
The dastardly Republicans and Conservatives (I blush in shame at the use of those vile words) have been targeted by the leftists and properly so. They nevertheless continue to deny any involvement and have been obscenely graphic in their denials; some have even posted a few screen shots of innocuous Democrat Party educational materials featuring bull’s eyes on Republican districts to counter the horrific Republican advertisements featuring vicious surveyor’s marks on Democrat districts; truly stupid and offensive! It has even been suggested (see link above) that the sainted DailyKos had an illustration back in 2008 showing a bulls eye in relationship to Congresswoman Giffords. Calling attention to this well intentioned and innocent post to suggest that it is somehow comparable to the violent nonsense from the Right is even more shameful, if such is possible, than are the other ferocious Rightist incitements. This sort of grossly outrgeous behavior falls far below the gentle wisdom of urging that guns be brought to knife fights. They clearly have no shame.
Sadly, as well deserved blame is maliciously attempted to be shifted from the Right, a few will try to blame the oppressed crazy people. The NARCP (National Association of Really Crazy People) has yet to speak. It’s a pity, because their voices have for too long been silent. Who, I ask, has silenced them? We must demand an answer to this question, now, and all of their melodious yet strangely misconstrued lessons for us all must be heard. Only then will there be verbal intercourse of a civilized nature.
The Congress must pass a law giving the Really Crazy People the media access of which they have for so long been deprived.
Ima Loon
Cosigned Ammendments, from the left.
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof unless people find it offensive in the public square; or abridging the freedom of speech unless it’s hateful, or of the press, unless it is unfair; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances, unless they are racists.
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed, just restricted or prohibited.
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized, which is to say that abortions shall be available without any infringement what-so-ever.
Lets just outlaw elections while we’re at at, right?
Then they can pass all the laws they want, and not have to worry about what the people think.
I wonder if the other Representatives who are targeted on Sarah Palin’s Hit List are worried.
If I were Ann Kirkpatrick, Harry E. Mitchell, John Salazar, Betsy Markey, Allen Boyd , Suznne M. Kosmas, Baron P. Hill , Earl Pomeroy, Charlie Wilson, John Boccieri, Kathy Dahlkemper, Christopher Carney, John M. Spratt, Jr., Tom Perriello, Alan B. Mollohan, or Nick J. Rahall II, I would certainly be a bit nervous.
Who’s next?
Who is the next one to catch a bullet from the gun of a Patriot?
Who will be next? Maybe some of the Representatives on Sarah Palin’s targeted Hit List will just quit in the face of Sarah Pac. That’s almost as good, right?
“Commonsense Conservatives & lovers of America: “Don’t Retreat, Instead – RELOAD!”
“Who is the next one to catch a bullet from the gun of a Patriot?”
I call Troll.
When we don’t say what the Democrats want, they plant people to say it for us.
Exhibit A is Post 38 by Nate
I seem to have missed something. Who was the last Democrat to catch a bullet from a “patriot?”
Wow. Instead of electing smarter individuals into Congress doesn’t it seem like we are electing dumber ones? Maybe the left is just faking us out so that we give up? Go to http://www.takingonissues.com for some good ‘ole fashion common sense.
It’s bad enough that many citizens here no longer grasp the First Amendment or Marketplace of Ideas, but when our elected officials can’t grasp the concepts then it’s shocking…
I wonder what Bob would do or say if someone put a check mark on one of his pictures? What would, “the world acording to Bob, be?
“Making language or symbols that are perceived as “threatening” against the law is a bad idea”
Agreed. To a point. I mean, actual THREATS to elected MPs should be dealt with, and people explicitly advocating violence should also find themselves talking to Serious People.
But leaving the interpretation of speech entirely to the subject is a recipe for trouble.
But here’s a crazy idea … suppose it wasn’t necessary?
I mean … “the first thing we need to do is take harry reid out”, right after talking about a “second amendment remedy”. Does anyone here REALLY think that’s acceptable?
‘According to The Hill, the Democratic lawmaker “plans to introduce legislation that would make it a federal crime to use language or symbols that could be perceived as threatening or inciting violence against a federal official or member of Congress.”’
Somebody ought to punch that guy right in the snoot.
Just wanted to say that before it’s against the law.
It should be pointed out that Bob Brady is the leader of the democrat party in Philadelphia; one of the most corrupt and amoral organizations in the country. Brady came to power as a union agent; i.e. thug. He rose to prominence by inflicting violence and threats of violence at anyone who did not march to the union piper. Now he pretends he is the voice of civility, what a joke.
Does anyone but me take offense at Nabisco for calling their Saltines, CRACKERS. Isn’t this a racist comment?
I can’t count the ways this proposed law is unconstitutional. Does this guy have any concept of the First Amendment?
It is frightening to realize how ignorant some of our elected representatives are.
