Susan Collins called the cops over sidewalk chalk.

[madaboutharry]

Someone wrote a message with sidewalk chalk telling Collins to vote for the Women’s Health Protection Act. She called the police.

What is wrong with her?

She is becoming more foolish and weird by the day.

1. She's Been Foolish, Weird And A Fucking LIAR For A Long Time

You can thank the MORONS in Maine for keeping her in office until 2026.

[DURHAM D]

2. She is just concerned. nt

[DemocraticPatriot]

49. Yes... and that is all she is.

[2naSalit]

3. Dementia?

[LiberalFighter]

37. More likely stupidity.

[llashram]

4. they are afraid

because somewhere in their dark, dark conscience they know what they are.

[Emile]

19. They are afraid, I really believe that!

[Solly Mack]

5. Oh, the humanity! Not sidewalk chalk!

[grantcart]

13. "Defacing public property" what a Fucking joke

(In an Allen Iverson voice) "we are talking about Chalk, does everyone understand the difference of something written in Chalk and something written with a jack hammer in the side walk"?

[lame54]

35. Chalk designed and legally sold for that very purpose

[LiberatedUSA]

23. I know, right?

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/grade-point/wp/2016/03/24/someone-wrote-trump-2016-on-emorys-campus-in-chalk-some-students-said-they-no-longer-feel-safe/

[Caliman73]

38. Certainly, we can discuss the Emory students' situation and the Collin's situation.

and the difference.

Trump 2016, certainly does not seem like a direct threat, unless you understand what he campainged on. He campaigned on hatred of immigrant of a certain type, hatred of LGBTQ people, and "making America Great" which has been a not so subtle code for keeping America White. He encouraged his supporters to "knock the hell" out of protestors and said he was going to "end crime" presumably by going after Black and Brown people who he implied, commit all the crime. He said people from the "inner city (Black people) were going to "invade the suburbs (where the White people live). He also said (granted it was before the election) that you can "grab em by the pussy" and had 20+ allegations of doing just that, so his record with women was not great.


“Susie, please, Mainers want WHPA —–> vote yes, clean up your mess,” This was drawn on the sidewalk near Collins' house. Collins has famously been "concerned" with things but when it actually came to protecting women, Black people, poor people, etc... When it came to choosing a Supreme Court Justice who would respect "stare decisis" she choose all of Trump's picks who had NO intention of doing so. There is no implication of violence, no threat, just a "please" clean up the mess you made when you voted to confirm all these horrible judges.

Are you saying that the reactions are equal? That the people in the two stories have equal power in society? Equal access to protection and security?

[LiberatedUSA]

39. Just saying, chalk in both instances.

I hope the Collins family avoid driving over the chalk and leaving a mark, as we have established that using using your car as intended, but leaving a mark on street graffiti we like, is vandalism.

Sometimes we really like our chalk.

6. Her Kavanaugh vote and her reason for that vote did her in..

She’s a fool and a gullible fool at that..she doesn’t grasp why she’s in the line of fire..and instead of redeeming herself she has made it quite clear she will not vote to codify Roe v Wade because something about catholic hospitals forced to do abortions blah blah blah ..Murkowski is taking crap too..

[Skittles]

8. she knew what she was doing

she was complicit

that's why she gets so upset when she is called out on it

[agingdem]

10. You're right..

She’s “acting” like Kavanaugh and his rancid lying brethren did this to her, too..she’s one of us don’t ya know..

[ShazzieB]

15. And Catholic hospitals being forced to do abortions is utter b.s.!

Anyone with a brain should know that! But what am I saying? We ARE talking about Susan Collins here! 🤷‍♀️

[IronLionZion]

27. Apparently not since they reelected her

[agingdem]

30. That was in 2020

Last edited Tue May 10, 2022, 12:00 PM - Edit history (1)

Don’t know if her constituents would be so eager to vote for her now

[IronLionZion]

33. 2026 is a while yet

she might decide to retire or join a lobbying firm by then

[agingdem]

34. And there's no provision to recall a US senator

Collins has no cognitive self awareness…she voted against repealing Obamacare and she was applauded and cheered when she walked thru the Maine airport .. I suppose that one momentary attack of conscience for doing the right thing and the praise that followed does not compute in her wasteland of a mind ...but voting aye for a boozed up profane sexual predator that she gets..

[Stinky The Clown]

7. Idiot and weirdo

[LetMyPeopleVote]

9. This lady is nuts

[Katcat]

11. I disagree

And I’ll tell you why. This is her thing, a big issue comes up and she waffles and hem haws. Then she votes like the GQP she is and THEN she pretends she got fooled.
The only ones who are fooled are those who believe the old backstabber. She’s had years to perfect her con and she’s got it down pat.
She’s worse than some of the male gop because she’s so slick and believable but never forget that she’s one ruthless THING!

[eShirl]

12. she can play the indignant victim now (again)

[electric_blue68]

14. Pathetic over reaction!

[Hekate]

16. I am very concerned for her

[PurgedVoter]

44. That was my first thought!

I too am very concerned but I am "Certain" she will do the right thing. I am also certain she would tell us that she would do the right thing.

[Raine1967]

17. What a waste of police resources.

I really hope that no one was in need of serious help from those officers during that time.

Jeebus, she called LEO for this chalk protest after she voted to confirm an alleged sex abuser on the Supreme court. It doesn't even appear to be on her property.

[riversedge]

20. The chalkers were polite-they said Susie Please.

[Celerity]

18. She is an assclown snowflake.

[Irish_Dem]

21. They are scared and shocked that the people are fighting back.

It never occurred to them that this might happen.

[DFW]

22. No wonder they identify with Putin so much.

The Republicans were hoping Putin would make quick work of the Ukrainian invasion, so that they could wring their hands and cry how much they wanted a free Democratic Ukraine while patting Putin on the back and taking his money. Now that the Ukrainians are having none of it, and the world is cheering for them, they don‘t know whom to side with— the heroic freedom fighters or the money.

Hint—the money usually wins out.

[Irish_Dem]

24. The GOP sides with Putin. They want what Putin has in Russia.

Total permanent autocratic power. Confiscation of US assets.

And Putin's help getting them "elected."

The GOP probably doesn't mind the Ukraine war all that much. The US military industrial complex is going to have a huge $$$ windfall as a result, some of which will be funneled into GOP campaign funds.

[DFW]

25. If the radical right in Congress makes too much noise for Fearless Leader

He will tell them to STFU before they give themselves away as his puppets. They love the money, but are terrified of the exposure.

[Irish_Dem]

31. I agree, this is heading to a gigantic clown show at some point.

[intheflow]

26. That was respectful protest sign on public property.

Why the fuck did she call the cops? Maybe it was the "Clean up your mess" bit - she's terrified to face the consequences of her actions.

[IronLionZion]

28. You kids get off my lawn

[Blue Owl]

29. "Officer (gasp)... they were carrying 20 rounds of Play Day..."

[img][/img]

[moonshinegnomie]

32. thee message should reappear every day

along with loud protests.

[RANDYWILDMAN]

36. This

She works for the people of Maine and the people of the United States. You are a public servant and are paid by us

[867-5309.]

40. I'm not surprised she was concerned

[jcgoldie]

41. Officer arrest that criminal she's getting ready to hopscotch on my sidewalk!

[LiberalFighter]

42. On the sidewalk..

Which is public property. Not her property. Using chalk. That will wash away after a good rain. And only readable if people try really hard to figure it out. Especially when the message intended for her.

[RayStar]

43. Foolish

and SUPER weird is she.

[PurgedVoter]

45. But the rights of Extreamists on a sidewalk in front of Planned Parenthood are upheld

The dead doctors were never an issue to them. But now they don't want the public to pressure anyone.

Only the pressure of dark money is to be tolerated!

[gulliver]

46. It was a backfire move against Pro-Choice

Just dumb if it was by someone Pro-Choice. Smart if it was done by someone who is against abortion rights.

[DENVERPOPS]

47. Hey Collins

call the waaaaahmbulance.........

[KY_EnviroGuy]

48. Isn't it a little late in the spring for snowflakes even in Maine?

KY..........
