Remember when Tom Cotton wrote that thing about using troops to crush Black Lives Matter and people insisted that he wasn't a fascist? Well...

Tom Cotton

We have a major under-incarceration problem in America.

And it's only getting worse.

I'm actually pretty confident we all think Cotton is a fascist......

[atreides1]

1. Come on

He has a point, we haven't locked up enough fascists like Cotton...

[The Magistrate]

2. There Were What, Ma'am, Ten Thousand Traitors At The Capitol?

Looks like no more than a few hundred will draw prison time, and that is definitely an 'under-incarceration' problem....

[Nevilledog]

3. Well, when you put it that way.......

[NQAS]

4. Maybe he's referring to the Jan 6 domestic terrorists? (nt)

[Deacon Blue]

5. Arresting Cotton...and:

Hawkey, Cancun Cruz, and several representatives would populate those under-utilized cells.

And jailing all the peace-loving, Fascist Capitol pic-nickers, and Ron Johnson would indeed help.

6. I never thought he wasn't.

7. Tom Cotton/Lauren Boebert for Pres/VP 2024

Let's put two solid Fascists in the White House.

8. I always like to keep an open mind......

I used to think he was just an A$$hole, but I'm certainly willing to consider the suggestion......

[Silent3]

9. I think a fascist is just an asshole with ambition n/t

[MyOwnPeace]

10. Well, that DOES describe him!

[marble falls]

11. Tom Cotton is right: why aren't Tom Cotton and the Trumparians in prison yet?

[Biophilic]

12. You know, he is just a vile human being. Yes, unfortunately he is a human, just a very vile one. nt

13. We actually do have a MAJOR under incarceration problem in America.

Not enough rich and powerful people are ever brought to trial, convicted, and put in jail for life, for their continued theft of American labor and American lives.

You have Trump playing at his stupid make believe office in Florida instead of behind bars. You have Matt Hawley and Ted Cruz on the Floor of the Senate instead of behind bars for supporting the insurrection.

You have CEOs of major corporations that nothing happens to when they allow toxic spills that kill people, wildlife, and destroy habitat. No one in Texas is in jail for allowing people to freeze to death AND making millions of dollars by gouging people.

We certainly have an under incarceration problem in the US, just not like Cotton is thinking of.

14. WHO STILL THINKS THAT?

Those horrible horrible Straw Men!

15. Under-incarceration. He's correct

there needs to be a whole Trump & Associates prison wing.
