The Left cancels Georgia and moves the All Star game

[iarwain]

Can they wear a Trump shirt or MAGA hat?

Not if they're handing out gifts or pamphlets. You have confidence in the voting, great. Many Republicans do not, especially with all the Covid modifications which the Democrats want to make permanent. I know we are the minority party, but apparently our concerns should not be addressed, because we are all supposedly deplorable racists, according to the left.

I have seen many Democrats on TV arguing that people shouldn't have to show an ID to vote. This is not an unreasonable standard, and most certainly there is nothing racist about it. And certainly nothing to cancel Georgia over. Especially since Georgia already handed you guys the Senate.

Can they wear a Trump shirt or MAGA hat? There are already distance laws. Georgia did not need a new one.

It's not up to you to decide.

 

[Handmaid for Jesus]

It's not up to you to decide.

You are right about that. Georgia voters will decide.

 

[Handmaid for Jesus]

And certainly nothing to cancel Georgia over. Especially since Georgia already handed you guys the Senate.

Well you guys held it long enough.

The courts hearing those cases would not have deterred Republicans from instituting draconian laws aimed at making voting hard for minorities. They think they cannot win unless they do this. Minorities are not monolithic. That is why I am Independent. I vote for whom I think will do the best job for the people. As Americans, our democratic republic is is suppose to be inclusive for all of our citizens.

Agan, how is the law making it hard on minorities to vote?

Do you have evidence of this happening?

Do you have evidence of this ever happening?

Voters being coerced is a problem that has been around for a long time, I did read about it in this past election. Under the new Georgia law you can bring food and beverages with you, you can order a pizza and soda to be delivered to you while you wait, but a group advocating a candidate cannot hand you a bottle of champagne or a hundred dollar bill while you are in line.

That's because, until recently, sports leagues had the good sense to stay out of politics, or at the very least not take partisan sides.

 

[Sparagmos]

BTW, this is voting, not a food line. If you need water or food, it would be wise to prepare before you go to vote.

Otherwise, get your precinct to provide water and food for voters.

So your response is "deal with it."

Why are Democrats so insistent that they want to be able to give gifts to voters at polling places?
CNN is running video of old time minstrels in black face with accompanying statements that Jim Crow is back. Not only is that a lie, it is truly disgusting.

Voting rights: Democratic-led states eye expansion amid GOP push to restrict access - CNNPolitics

With the advent of Georgia moving to change some of it's voting laws, the Left has moved to boycott the All Star game from Atlanta Georgia.

But who are they hurting here?

Atlanta Georgia has long been known as a center of black wealth, higher education, political power and culture; a cradle of the Civil Rights Movement and the home of Martin Luther King Jr. It has often been called a "black mecca".

And according to a 2015 analysis of census data, Metro Atlanta had the greatest numerical gain in new black residents than any metropolitan area in the U.S. This is a city with about half the population that is black.

That's right everyone, the Left just took all that money and jobs from their own black voters by not allowing the All Star game there.

The Leftists don't really care about the Black people, anyone looking truthfully at the past Democratic administrations should know that. The Left simply uses media propaganda (which they control mostly), to make it appear... they are helping the Black people. Trump actually helped the Black folks, gave them job opportunities they never got with the Democrat admins. The Left would rather keep the Black folks in a jobless, mindless, numb state, making them political dependents to be used, instead of free individuals with the power to make a living on their own.

So, you're saying that Georgia's new Republican voting bill adversely effects Atlanta's citizens most. Good place for a boycott.

So does that mean that Republican ball fans will no longer be allowed to enjoy their favorite teams because they took a partisan side? You do know that people on all sides enjoy ball games don't you? I really don't see what MLB did as a partisan decision .

Come to think of it, it is my first time hearing it also.

I am not going to repeat myself. Read the thread.

No, that is what Trump is doing to you. You are a Trump worshiper. What has he done for you lately.I heard about this on the news this morning.How much have you paid?

You are also saying that the Right Cancel Culture doesn't like it when the Left uses it against them.

You can count on the center hating both left and right wing radical extremists who do it.
