Zotix posted:The problem with this is he wasn't armed when he crossed state lines. Nadler should do better, but it doesn't play into the narrative. His point is that he crossed state lines to prevent people from exercising a federally-guaranteed right, and he's arguing that this is a crime. It doesn't matter whether he had the gun when he crossed into WI under that theory. Edit: I guess he did say "armed persons crossing..." but I think the theory he's expressing would hold whether or not the person was armed when they crossed the border. I personally do not believe, however, that this line of reasoning is a good one.

Joe Biden really wants to see how low his approval rating can go, huh? Between this and student loans starting up in a few months it's possible he's going to be sub-30%.

Tacos Al Pastor posted:I understand the references to his past, but I actually expected his response to be in the form of "Im having the DOJ look into this". Biden is pretty hands off with the DOJ, as it should be. My guess is he was trying to minimize the coming chaos headed to wisconsin by putting out a Reaganesque "welp, the jury has spoken" platitude. I'm not saying Garland doesn't suck, but he's proving that he would have been exactly the kind of centrist that probably would have gotten through the confirmation if he had gotten a chance. My prediction is he gets replaced by someone with a little more fire at some point.

It's the attempt at official message of trying to keep the peace one expects from politics, as wrong as it is. The trial itself is a huge can of worms that doesn't bode well for people protesting police violence or white violence against people of color and seems to say "Keep in line/know your place."

Goddamn, Biden just can't escape the 'What did you expect, the president can't say/do that' can he? Why doesn't he cancel student loans? Well, the president can't do that (actually he might, but his admin hasn't actually revealed if he can or not), and if you think about it, people getting their lives crippled by returning debt payments is a good thing, because DUH gently caress YOU!. Why doesn't he address the supply chain issue? Well, he can say stupid poo poo but apparently any and all aspect of what's currently going on is out of his and his admin's hands. Why the boilerplate non-substantial response to the acquittal? Well, he can't shake the boat, per say. The law is just, the law is fair, so sayeth old white man Biden. If you think about it, Biden is the real victim here. Why did you sons of bitches elect him into what turned out to be the most powerless position in government? That's just cruel, picking on a elderly person.

Sanguinia posted:I understand the distinction between leftist and rightwing thought on guns. I just recognize that its a distinction without a difference. Sorry, I should have specified that I didn't necessarily agree with the points I was putting forward, just offering an explanation. I agree with what you say; I think if the left wants to make use of firearms it's only going to actually be useful (Distinct from good or bad, I emphasize) in the context of a group activity, whether that's by doing what the Black Panthers did (And that very much INCLUDES all the other things to build support and awareness, like free breakfasts for schoolkids and free clinics) or by outright preparing for revolutionary violence. Frankly I'm pessimistic either of those methods would actually succeed either because the right wing state would react, uh, sternly but successful revolutions have occurred, successful lone wolf heroes with guns have, just as you say, a rather less impressive track record.
