And exhibiting their hypocrisy in the process.Republicans and their endless threads, terrified their 2nd Amendment rights will be taken away.
Terrified that their right to discriminate thinking it's based on their religion will be gone forever.
Fearful that letting others have certain rights will infringe on their own.
Feel they are being targeted as they target others with voter suppression. Even when they know voter ID is only a very small part of what they are actually doing.
In fact, they even see children fleeing danger as a terrible threat. They are terrified of people they don't know, have never met and probably will never meet going into the future.
So where does this terrible fearfulness come from that their rights are going to be taken away? Why do they want to deny the rights of others? Is it a basic meanness? Selfishness? Belief in America is all about freedom and equality. What has replaced that belief in their minds? What are they so frightened of? And if it's not fear driving this Right Wing movement, what is it?
Most conservatives believe states can take from citizens their rights, ‘justified’ by the ‘will of the people’ - which of course is completely untrue.
But when it’s the ‘will of the people’ to enact firearm regulatory measures, all of a sudden the people have no such authority, and the courts are at liberty to strike down such laws.
Conservatives can’t have it both ways:
If the courts can strike down firearm regulatory measures repugnant to the Constitution – which they should very much do – then laws likewise violating a woman’s right to privacy should be struck down.
