It comes with the territory, imo.



Levels of Violence against Mayors In 2021, violence against mayors was common. Among all mayors, 94.5 percent reported psychological violence at least once, 24.2 percent reported at least one threat, and 15.8 percent suffered physical violence. However, with the exception of physical violence, non-Hispanic white women (NHWW) and women of color (WoC) mayors faced higher levels of violence than men of color (MoC) mayors and non-Hispanic white men (NHWM) mayors. While women mayors also reported more physical violence than men mayors, the difference was not statistically significant

Right wingers are violent racists who attack people of color, and anyone who supports people of color. News at 11

The big problem with that article is that it does it’s best to paint this as an “American issue” when really is just one group of people and that’s the right wing. But rightfully pointing out that republicans are doing this is a big no no in the media despite it being detrimental to changing the situation.

There’s no point in even writing that story if you’re unwilling to even say who’s committing these violent and racist acts

Putting aside politics, do you see access to politicians in this way as a good thing or a bad thing? :jbhmm:

Above the fray.
This is not it. There was already a coup d'etat attempt on Jan. 6th. Physical attacks on elected officials will just speed up the erosion of democracy, stability, and order in this country.
Only sounds "good" until you speak to members here from developing countries, where we can't take those things for granted .

These elected officials literally think their jobs are a game. They don't realize the ramifications that their actions have. They've completely lost sense of reality. It's cliché, but the old saying is still true today. They work for US. They should fear US, because if they can't do the job, then it should be easy as pie to vote them out. The problem is, there's a rig in the game, and they know they'll never lose power, (or their positions) as long as they want to keep it. You think people like Mitch McConnell give a fukk what the people of Kentucky think about him? How do you think he continually gets elected, with an approval rating as low as 11% AT THE TIME OF AN ELECTION?!?!?!!?

These motherfukkers are getting reelected with zero accomplishments. Yea people are dumb, but you cant tell me they continually vote the guy in for over 25 straight years, with very little to show for it. Bottom 2 in poverty. Bottom 2 in education. Bottom 2 in life expectancy. And with all that said, he still sponsors, cosponsors and puts forth bills that harm his constituents.

Take Ron DefukkinSantis in Florida for another example. He, along with a bunch of other Republican Governor's pulled out of the enhanced unemployment benefits for his constituents, be cause he felt it was time for people to go back to work. He literally stole over 3 grand from each person in Florida, that were still qualified to collect the federal benefits. In the middle of a pandemic. And people are still reeling from it. They tried to take him to court, and he doubled down and worked his judges and they tossed out both cases. Then throw in his flirtation for his love for white supremacy. Then throw in his hate for the LGBTQ+ community. Then throw in the way he treats teachers as disposable, considering his end game is to use even MORE federal funding on private schools. The amount of hate that I have for that man.. I'm not saying its right, but I find it really hard to believe that if that piece of shyt were ever around me, that I wouldn't be inclined to put my hands on him.

I could go on and on. These politicians don't have their constituents' best interest at heart, and they literally do whatever they can to grow their bank accounts. No matter how many people die, or lose their homes, or lose their jobs etc. To me.. that's grounds for gettin paws put on you.. at the least. It's obvious the rule of law doesn't scare these pieces of shyt. Maybe physical harm will?

It will only stop when these attackers get laid the fukk out
