Also America has never really been invaded during an election...at least not its homeland...to any significant extent. The civil war is the best example, but that wasn't even a foreign enemy. Now if China say invaded the west coast, and cities like Portland, LA, San Diego, etc are solidly in Chinese hands wiht the Chinese moving across the rockies and the President and Congress come along and and collectively go "We think we should pause elections until things get stable"....I'd have a hard time arguing against that.
I've developed a game plan for when this hits my city
I will not comply with any check points
I will force them to arrest me
I will demand a jury trial
I will be co-council with my attorney, he runs the case
I will make my own closing remarks
Which will be
"I refused to comply with a military-armed checkpoint. That is true.
But my question to you is this — why was that checkpoint there in the first place? Are we at war? No. Has there been a terrorist attack that warrants such a measure? No.
So the question before you isn’t simply why I refused to comply… it’s why the military was conducting random checkpoints in the streets of our community at all.
I thought this was the United States of America — not Iraq, not Afghanistan. Our streets are not battlefields, and our neighbors are not enemy combatants.
You, the jury, have a choice. You can accept this new reality — one where the military can set up checkpoints in our neighborhoods — and find me guilty.
Or you can take a stand and say this is not the America we are meant to be, and find me not guilty.
Those are the lines I wish to be judged by, because that was my intention from the very start."
President Donald Trump’s approval rating has fallen to just 40 percent, the lowest since his return to the White House,
Quotes like this just piss me off, call me when he drops below 33% which is his historical ledge that he doesn't seem to go under, until it hits that, he'll be fine.
A lot of people here seem to not like ChatGPT. Well ChatGPT basically did all the research for this, and guided me through the process and I got exactly what I wanted.
Eh if all Trans people where black the NRA would have a different tune.
