GOP Candidate Threatens "Bullet Box" if Ballot Box Fails

More twisting of the 2nd Amendment.

I agree, she doesn't understand the 2nd Amendment. It has no pretense or subtext other than the right to carry. She seems to infer the 2nd Amendment implies a right to use violence to coerce others when voting has failed. To her, that is tyranny.

Besides, who would want to stick their bullet in her box?

Lieusays...

To propose going to the "bullet box" after the ballet box fails is to say if you don't get your way through democracy, then get your way through violence instead.

That is not accepting democracy. Now, I wonder what she would say if you asked her if she accepted democracy...

Yeah, QM... by that logic we should have overthrown the tyranny of the last administration with it's false wars, lies, torture, secret organizations which are now coming to light as being above the law and nepotistic war profiteering...

Who was stopping you? Revolutions are hard to come by in a nation that's so drastically split. It's the old divide and conquer. Unless we wake up and pull our heads out of our asses long enough to form some sort of revolt, we'll continue to fight each other of BS that means nothing.

What's stopping me, is that unlike QM and this nutjob in the video, I believe that democracy can actually work over time and that it actually benefits from cycles where there are different view in power. I actually believe that while I differ in opinion from Republicans, there IS something to be gained by having them in power every so often, just as it is beneficial to counter that with the Democratic party once in a while.

The issue is that the USA is getting exceptionally whiny as a country and that people are just unwilling to favor intelligence in general. Going back to my comments about the QI program... we've reached this point where we seem to revel in our idiocy and the MEDIA is the REAL enemy. They use hyperbole to send the masses into a frenzy whereas if they reported with more truth and moderation, we'd probably all get along a lot better.

Just be thankful that Ponce isn't in office, cuz one of the first things that I would do is put serious penalties on false/misleading reporting. Just to be clear... BOTH sides of the "slant" are responsible for this crap...

Anyway, my point is that violence really DOESN'T resolve things, unlike what the brainless fuck in this video advocate.

Truckchasesays...

I'm a liberal and I actually agree with her main point despite the clumsy nature in which it was presented. (and obviously the reasoning for it's use) That being said, I'm sure she's still a moron. This brand of violence threatening grandstanding only comes up in these forums attended by and put on by wackos.

Ponce, I concur with your statement that democracy could work, it's just that democracy is dead in the US, and has been for some time. Money rules all....
