Reply #6: Gerrymandering is a shameful legacy of both Republicans/Democrats

[Selatius]

They're both equally guilty of the same thing. If you're going to call the pot black, then you should admit you're the kettle as well. Whichever party is in power has been guilty of gerrymandering regardless if it is Republicans or Democrats. It is even more disgusting when one studies the history of gerrymandering with respect to minorities in this country.

This is why I believe some form of proportional representation is better because it totally sidesteps district rigging. If you want to talk about democracy, you can do better than what we have currently, but if you don't, then you're better off not criticizing Republicans at all on the point of gerrymandering.
