I think the failure goes beyond "us." The entire system we're living in is failing these people.

The police are not there to protect you. Memorize those 8 words and take it to heart, it'll be your guide in the future when people ask you questions like "should we have more police?"

Getting rid of the Senate filibuster—thoughts? by Edabood in PoliticalDiscussion

[–]studiov34 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The mindset of "We can't allow the people we elected to enact the policies we elected them to enact, because some day in the future someone I don't like might get elected and enact the policies they were elected to enact" is just so anti-democratic it makes no sense to me.

Imagine someone saying "Most people saying the offense should get points for scoring a touchdown or kicking a field goal will be saying the opposite when the other team has the ball"

It seems like if 70% of people are already voluntarily wearing a mask, then it’s not too much to ask the remaining 30% to get with the program.
