Most likely a Republican made this to make the Democrats look like they did this.
The issue is how Congress failed to protect the public.
"Most likely" we don't know who created it. "Most likely" it was created by an idiot who likes watching Republicans and Democrats throw shit at each other for no other reason than it is entertaining.
The issue is why anyone thinks Congress is supposed to 'protect the public'. I don't need no fucking politician to protect me. I need them to stand back while I protect myself.
Come to Rio De Janeiro and see what can happen without the protection of the state, its a real eye opener.
I through out the first thought I had, you see a post from a man that is fed up with both sides, I am cynical of all people and suspect all.
Congress has a duty to the public, our protection, that is what the Constitution is, why do you not just scream you do not need the Constitution to protect yourself, in so many words that is what your stating.
We can protect ourselves standing alone and we have no protection if Congress does not follow the Constitution.
People should live in the Third World, not vacation, I live in the Third World, I see what happens without the power of the Constitution of the USA and the people who followed and built our country upon the Constitution.
Maybe I am not as articulate and my point is not made well in my first post, but to follow up with this post it is clear.
Congress has failed us and we need Congress to be of the people and for the people. We have lost Congress, we have lost our Representatives, they are so disconnected from reality that tragedy is result.
I need Congress to protect me, I need Representation, for me. I have not seen a politician for me in my life.
I have lived in Mexico for 7 months and have spent over 2 years in Brazil. On top of that I have now spent 2 months working in Spain.
I look around and I see Gang Graffiti across from my house, I see dirt, mold, blackness growing on the unpainted cement of a home. I see new paint on a house and bars on the windows, many times my street smells of untreated sewage because the street was built on top of a man made river of shit that flows from the Favela, they have the Military attacking the drug gangs south of us which forced the gangs to re-establish across the bridge where they have always been but the center of their power was always in central Rio De Janeiro. I see new high rise apartments being built and a statue of Mother Mary holding Jesus is on a hill to the back of our house. Home made paper balloons with a candle for lift are constantly in the air, illegal, home made bombs trail underneath and go off every few seconds, I can hear Diesel buses on the next street over. At night I hear gunshots and have seen military tracer rounds shot across the top our city. I see the poor beg for money and domesticated dogs roaming homeless chewing up any garbage left to be picked up on the street.
I know of two incidents where a different men were shot by the police within a block of my home in the last week, now I can hear a loudspeaker at some distance blaring from the top of a car advertising blankets for sale.
If you need Congress to step aside so you can protect yourself, come to Rio, your wish is granted here.
