Don Scott (Virginia politician) - Wikipedia

Virginia House Democrats chose Del. Don Scott Jr. (D-Portsmouth) as their leader on Wednesday, more than a month after voting to remove the former House minority leader.

Del. Scott, a lawyer, was picked over two other Democratic state delegates for the leadership role. He is the first Black person to serve as Virginia House minority leader.

Scott led a push to oust Del. Eileen Filler-Corn (D-Fairfax) as House minority leader. Del. Filler-Corn, the first woman and Jewish person to serve as Virginia House Speaker in the House of Delegates' 400-year history, became minority leader after Republicans took a majority in the chamber after last year’s elections.

I don't know what is happening in this state but it is embarrassing and insulting. Fairfax people, mostly those in control are nothing but pervert scum. Parents don't seem to be able to get rid of them. They have been winning elections with voter fraud for decades. Most of those nova counties are cheats, liars and anti america types.

Well you should move to Georgia and wow them with your single digit IQ!

So the Democrats push out the Jewish woman to install a black druggie. Sad, but no surprising. Blackness is the primary qualification for any role.

In 1994, Scott was arrested on federal drug charges, and served seven years in prison. Later, he acknowledged his mistakes, and said that the experience motivated him, and showed him injustices of the legal system. Following his release from prison, Scott took an entry-level position at KRA Corporation, where he eventually became senior vice president and relocated to Portsmouth, Virginia.

I think he is the type of man we need all of this country. He made a mistake early in his life and did not let it define him. He served his time and got out and made sure he did not make the same mistakes and worked to keep others from making them as well.

I am not sure what you have against this man. Should nobody that ever made a mistake be given a 2nd chance?

So we are to demean a guy that did something stupid in his early 20's but then went on to turn things around and get his law degree and then an elected office?

Do I have this right?

I'm not the forgive and forget type when it comes to ex-con felons, but you do you.

Why should we be so forgiving of an ex-con for a high public position? Just because he’s black and the Dems favor blacks over Whites? They dumped a Jew to get him in. But that’s OK?

 

[Lisa558]

What was their reason for ousting the Jew? Not the right skin color? What exactly?

 

[pknopp]

The person dumped lost the majority. That should be done anytime a leader loses the majority. We would be better off today if McConnell and Pelosi had that happen to them.

Prove it.

Maybe because it is the Christian thing to do. He made a mistake 28 years ago. He paid his debt to society and has since then worked hard to make up for his mistake.

Funny how you all had so much forgiveness for the drugie Rush Limbaugh but none for this guy...I wonder what the difference between them is

It was almost 30 years ago. Sounds like he's turned around quite a bit since those days.

In 1994, Scott was arrested on federal drug charges, and served seven years in prison. Later, he acknowledged his mistakes, and said that the experience motivated him, and showed him injustices of the legal system.[4] Following his release from prison, Scott took an entry-level position at KRA Corporation, where he eventually became senior vice president and relocated to Portsmouth, Virginia.

In 2015, Scott was admitted to the bar and opened his own firm, where he practices criminal defense, family law, and civil cases.[5]

You underestimate how much people in other parts of the state loathe Fairfax. They have their own special state laws all unto themselves and many of the state laws and rules are "except in Fairfax"
