Typical of Republicans. They hate democracy so they are always looking for a new way to rig the system.

Texas GOP wasn't likely to do this until Trump needed some more Distractions; the estimate I saw showed they would lose most of what they gained in a costly redistricting by shoving minorities into bigger districts.

figures that this cesspool of ignorant
leftist psychopathic lying punx can't see
beyond their own butt sniffing nose.

do things the way dems do....

the less illegals the less seats and thus EC votes
stinkholes like CA would get and you don't give a F how many women and children are raped and murdered by your illegals as long as they're all counted.

but not if the bill introduced by Bill Haggerty R tenn...the"equal representation act" that ensures only legal citizens are counted for districts
and EC.

Your president and his buddies fuck children.

Your president and his buddies protect other people who fuck children.

And you protect your president and his buddies.

Why do you support pedophiles?

"you don't give a F how many women and children are raped and murdered by your illegals as long as they're all counted."

Meanwhile, you don't give a F how many women and children are raped and murdered as long as they're all NOT counted.

Who looks more heartless, dumfuq?

This should literally be the only response to Republicans from now on.

They are all pedophiles or pedophile lovers.

Remember, they BLOCKED sex education to elementary and middle schools kids that taught adults touching them inappropriately is wrong. We all know why.

"they BLOCKED sex education to elementary and middle schools kids that taught adults touching them inappropriately is wrong."

Back in the 80s, I was involved with a Theatre group which won several awards for shows they'd developed, including one which educated young kids about inappropriate touching.

The theatre won a grant, so they could offer the show free to smaller towns, which otherwise wouldn't have been able to afford it.

Most communities were thrilled. But the company was stunned when there was pushback, and how vehement some of the pushback was.

I can guess why.

Because you are all pedophiles?

I'm sorry....that just seems to be the theme here right now......

That sounds like what someone who is molesting children would say, creepy.

"That sounds like what someone who is molesting children would say, creepy."

Americas central focus on sex education for kids is a sickness.

" Americas central focus on sex education for kids is a sickness."

This was to protect innocent kids; the story was a fantasy about an alien from a world without touch. It was a gentle lesson about empowering children to speak to a trusted adult if they weren't sure.

It's folks afraid to allow the kids to learn how to speak up for themselves who frightened the company the most.

It always seemed like they had something to hide.
