Please explain how reasonable restrictions on magazine capacity, body armor, and needing a permit to carry a concealed weapon infringes on your security

#DemVoice1 #BlueVoices 1/4
Are you really going to feel more secure at a concert where 19,000 people are carrying a concealed weapon?

Or, are you going to feel like a potential target in a mass shooting gallery with a 360-degree line of fire directed at you?

#DemVoice1 #BlueVoices 2/4
And if you are struck by the bullet of some other 2 Amendment advocate who wished to feel secure that evening, do you think that emergency responders are going to come to your aid as shots continue to be fired inside the venue?

Or, are you going

#DemVoice1 #BlueVoices 3/4
to have to lay there bleeding out until the shooting stops, the wounded are triaged, and the dead are left in place?

I suggest if you're honest you'll admit you're less secure by this Gun Lobby Extreme-Right Packed SCOTUS who pander for book deals

"Originalism and Textualism" dooms the U.S. and each of us individually to constant social unrest as basic activities of personal life not specifically identified in the Constitution will lose constitutional protection going forward and

#DemVoice1 #BlueVoices 1/7
the activities will be lawful or criminalized with no uniformity based on a myriad of variable state laws

The social unrest will be "constant" because politicians will raise money, advocates for and against these activities will be demonstrating,

#DemVoice1 #BlueVoices 2/7
and counter-demonstrating, sadly often with violent confrontations between the groups all because six justices in RED ROBES feel that the Constitution should be analyzed based on the meaning of words intentionally written broadly 235 years ago

Could Clarence Thomas want to dump his embarrassment of a wife Ginni by taking the long route to overturn Loving v. Virginia, the 1967 case that struck down Virginia's criminal statute against interracial marriage?

In his concurring opinion

#DemVoice1 #BlueVoices 1/10
in Dobbs Thomas wrote:

“In future cases, we should reconsider all of this Court’s substantive due process precedents including Griswold, Lawrence, and Obergefell”

Griswold - contraceptives
Lawrence - consensual sex
Obergefell - same-sex marriage

#DemVoice1 #BlueVoices 2/10 Image
But Thomas goes further and states: "Because any substantive due process decision is “demonstrably erroneous,” (Citing Himself as Authority) we have a duty to “correct the error” established in those precedents" (Again Citing Himself as Authority)

I used to be proud the SCOTUS used its power to ensure federal and state governments controlled by political or religious zealots couldn't criminalize conduct of a personal nature unless the law was "Necessary to a Compelling State Interest"

#DemVoice1 #BlueVoices 1/12
In Griswold v. Connecticut (1965), the Court first held that from the "penumbra" of rights in the Constitution a "Right to Privacy" existed that precluded Connecticut from criminalizing a married couple's use of contraception

Over time, the Right to Privacy embraced the

rights to: inter-racial marriage, travel, viewing pornography, a woman's right to terminate an unwanted pregnancy, the right to die, gay and lesbian intimacy, the right to same-sex marriage, and others

INFLATION Post 1 - Click on "Show this thread" to see the first 16 Tweets of this Post in proper order

I wish to share facts proving the GQP's FALSE narrative that Joe Biden's American Rescue Plan and infrastructure bill are causing inflation

#DemVoices1 #BlueVoices 1/16
with rising prices in energy, food, and housing

My statement that we DO [N]OT have an "economic problem known as inflation" was hyperbole, as "Inflation" by definition is a measure of rising costs of goods and services

#DemVoices1 #BlueVoices 2/16
The distinction I was making, is that our rising prices are NOT unique to the US and are NOT due to a weakening Dollar reducing purchasing power from increased domestic spending on social programs that do not bring revenue BACK to the treasury to

Andrew Giuliani the presumptive Republican candidate for Governor of New York has completed the Trump/Giuliani trifecta of sedition

On January 6th Rudy Giuliani addressing the mob Trump summoned to DC called for there to be a "Trial by Combat" at the Capitol

#DemVoice1 1/4
Trump then took the stage and without repudiating Rudy's inciting of the crowd called for the mob to walk down to the Capitol and said "you'll never take back our country with weakness. You have to show strength, you have to be strong"

#DemVoice1 2/4
Now Andy Giuliani goes on Russian State Media and tells the Russian people of how unjust he believed the FBI’s April raid on his father was; and, the fears his father's supporters have about America's Justice Department.

How did Putin manage these recruits
