A lot of these idiots live off of this white-washed constitution instead of the reality version.

https://www.huffpost.com/entry/mike-lee-pocket-constitution_n_5f88b08cc5b681f7da1fdee3

"It was an annotated version that’s published by a fringe Mormon group founded by the late conspiracy theorist W. Cleon Skousen and which has become the favorite of anti-government extremists and right-wing figures, including the men who led an armed seizure of an Oregon wildlife refuge over the conviction of two arsonist ranchers."

"The booklet is annotated in such a way as to make it seem like the founders envisioned a solely Christian nation and a severely limited federal government. It includes both the Constitution’s original text and several religious ― at times out-of-context ― quotes from the Founding Fathers."

https://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na-ff-oregon-standoff-constitution-20160121-story.html

"Cliven Bundy, who had a copy of the booklet during his 2014 standoff with federal agents on his Nevada ranch over unpaid grazing fees. His sons Ammon and Ryan brought it to the Oregon wildlife refuge."
"“It’s something I’ve always shared with everybody and I carry it with me all the time,” Cliven Bundy told The Times on Thursday. “That’s where I get most of my information from. What we’re trying to do is teach the true principles of the proper form of government.”"

Asked about accusations that Lee peddled false history and sent a dangerous message to extremists, Carroll said, “Sen. Lee is a strong supporter of the First Amendment precisely because so many people throughout America’s history have sought to persecute religious minorities because of their beliefs.”

Ah yes, like when people like Sen. Lee wanted to persecute Muslims because of their beliefs.

It's all quite coherent if you turn off your brain and listen with your gut. Bad people are bad and do bad things, we need to get violent because these are hard times and the enemy is doing it to us already. All the details like who specifically, what they're actually doing and so on are "I'll know it when I see it" stuff that nobody cares about. Just be ready to do violence because (((those))) kinds of people deserve it.

It's hard to see how this can end well for America, you're a rich country, but the constant coddling of insane religious people has left you in a very weird position. You're like Saudi, but with the status of a western society. Half your political elite are absolute lunatics by normal Western standards.

It was never going to end well. The constitution is so laughably outdated that it had to be amended about two dozen times, and its laws are based on

a) A lack of factions/parties.
b) Trust that good statesmen will be elected that are worthy of the public's confidence
c) A series of pinky swears not to be evil.

Thing about people like Kandiss is a dynamic I've seen repeat itself over and over: a fringe candidate runs, everyone has a laugh about how nutty they are. The candidate loses, but their ideas are mainstreamed and the GOP incrementally moves to the right as Democrats wring their hands over decorum and the sanctity of our holy institutions.

I'm pretty jaded, and I'm not trying to infect anyone with 'nothing matters', but I think the system will self destruct sooner rather than later.

A desperate priest dials the phone with a trembling, bloody hand as the sound of native war-cries close in. Debris fills the air of the besieged church.

"Hello? Founding Fathers!?"

"You got us." snarls a voice on the other end.

"We need help! Please! The Indians, they're killing every Christian!"

Already the sound of the Founding Fathers jetcopter could be made out in the distance.

And he might not even be an immigrant, but even if he's not that fact wouldn't matter to right wing media. It just fits too perfectly with their narrative of "foreign hordes are coming to murder your children."

Yet another pile of child corpses and all that will happen is the right will continue to demonize non-whites, and the Dems will just shrug their shoulders and say "Gosh wish we could do something, no of course we're not going to get rid of the filibuster so that we could do something."

e: I hope I don't sound like I'm being flippant about the fact that children were murdered but this is the second worst elementary school shooting in this country and literally nothing happened after the first except a right wing media figure getting grieving parents harassed. It's just hard to see any actual change coming from this.

The problem is I have my doubts that they're actually trying to do good work. I'm honestly not sure that they won't pull the same thing the Republicans did when they got control of the House/Senate and suddenly go "Uh poo poo now we actually have the ability to follow through on our constant votes to end Obamacare, what do we do now?"

Doing nothing but tabling votes you know the two fake Democrats won't support is the same as doing nothing. They should do *anything* meaningful; Republicans have learned to play every governmental system like a fiddle, meanwhile the Democrats haven't even entertained the idea of not calling Sinema and Manchin a Dem. But boy they'll sure use this and Roe v Wade for fundraising.

Why can’t they manage to do any good work? If they really wanted Manchin on a leash, they’d put him on one. Look at what the republicans did to Cawthorn merely for mentioning their coke orgies. Manchin surely has worse dirt than some cousin face-loving.

How long until a teacher kills a kid in the confusion of a shoot-out?

I hate how they never factor in loving anything when it comes to the 'good guy with a gun' nonsense. How much training do they have? Is the gun and ammo maintained? Do they know how to aim properly?

They shouldn't loving have to because the idea of every single teacher being an expert marksman is laughable, but even despite the horror in a world like that they never figure out how it would work. They just believe in magical pew-pew wand like they're toddlers.

Let alone the confusion and tension in an active shooter situation. What happens when the teacher is the first person shot? What happens if people run for the exits and cross the line of fire? What happens if a teacher confuses a different student for the gunman because they're scared and decides to shoot first?

They never consider it. They never prepare for it. They want their toy and they want it now. Spoiled goddamn children, while actual kids pile up in our schools.

I hate it. I absolutely hate it.

They don't care about the details. All of the things you mentioned are things that allows them to blame the individual on the ground for the failure. It becomes personal responsibility at that point, and not their problem.
