commentators smiling and giggling as they tell us about state after Republican-dominated state that has passed transparent voter suppression laws.
After some serious self editing, I'll just say---THIS CRAP ISN'T FUNNY!
People have DIED to obtain and preserve and exercise the right to vote for those we choose to govern us.
Some citizens---mostly people of color---stood outside in line for HOURS in the last election.
Some of us risked assault and endured obscene threats in parking lots and at stoplights for daring to urge people to vote for OUR candidate, Joe Biden.
Plainly stated, it royally pisses me off to hear accounts of such patently offensive legislation delivered in a "shits and giggles" atmosphere. This slow-motion insurrection has the same goal as the traitorous sonsabitches who carried the "Stars and Bars" into our Capitol on January 6th.
This is not a game. If some combination of the courts and Congressional Democrats cannot stop the anti-democracy march of the GOP and their thug supporters, I fear "There Will Be Blood!"
I'm sure I've said "too much" already, so I'll stop here.
