if so they deserve what they voted for
Everyone that has ever uttered this phrase is a useful idiot or a shill.
No one has voted for anything since the 1890s, when the secret ballot was implemented, and by extension, all verification that anyone was actually elected was ended.

did they go to the voting booth, yes or no?

are people in the northeast of nation more liberal yes or no?

you are the stupid and/or the shill here. yes i know that voting no longer matters but at the same time. there are lots of liberals in that state and in the northeast overall. so much so that there are people that shills for robert reich and bernie sanders who are hardcore socialists

Doesn't matter.

At most we can determine they are less willing to kill over crimes committed against them by the Maine goverment.
That is the only real difference between "based" states and liberal shithole states.

In every state there is a portion of the population that never votes for these communists. Your blanket statement is wrong.

Only along the coast. Faggots are too frail to live inland.

It depends where you live and it is really very starkly different. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_United_States_presidential_election_in_Maine

The bill from Rep. Laurie Osher, D-Orono, outlaws “unauthorized” paramilitary training and requires prosecutors prove a person was intentionally or knowingly teaching or practicing the use of firearms, explosives or other techniques to cause “civil disorder.”

When a politician or group of any kind initiates an illegal and unconstitutional law that group should be tried for treason and executed.

I can't fathom how this many people got on board with such a law.

Where were you during the plandemic, on ISS or something?

You are surrounded by them, doesn't matter where you go ~on earth~ in the 'civilized world'.

fuck is wrong with the strikethrough, @system?

This is literally in the 2nd amendment, the militia part is kinda secondary

[ - ] CoronaHoax 5 points 4 monthsFeb 16, 2025 01:00:13 ago (+5/-0)

teaching ... to cause “civil disorder.”

I'd say this is a first amendment issue as well

Yea really. This lasts exactly as long as it takes to bring one case to trial. Goes to SCOTUS and is hammered down post haste.

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed"

I honestly get the anti-carry arguments that suggest "Constitutional Carry" is not "well regulated" and therefore not applicable to 2A.

But restricting militias? There's absolutely no way around it.

[ - ] BMN003 4 points 4 monthsFeb 16, 2025 05:22:15 ago (+4/-0)

In the parlance of the time, "well regulated" meant "trained and equipped", not "restricted by government" like we use "regulation" to mean today. A professional soldier in a standing army, for example, was "regular infantry" or often just a "regular" for short.

In other words, the first clause of the second amendment has nothing to do with government oversight. Prior to the Revolution, plenty of towns and cities managed their own defense against the natives and even naval defenses, with little to no funding or oversight from crown appointed authorities.

Bottom line is that, while the second amendment also protects the right of the people to be in a skilled militia, the way it's phrased means the right to keep and bear arms isn't contingent on doing so. And it certainly doesn't mean "needs 10,000 pages of legalese attached that you go to jail for not following to the letter", because that's not what "regulated" meant in the late 18th century.

Adjectives aren't the point. It's the militia part that she is trying to ban, and that's what makes it a layup for SCOTUS.

Unconstitutional. Means nothing.

On what authority?

Oh wait, they never cared in the first place.

[ - ] Cantaloupe 5 points 4 monthsFeb 15, 2025 23:46:50 ago (+5/-0)*

That sounds unconstitutional.

The founders specifically wanted citizens to have organized militias and were against a standing army controlled centrally with a boot on the neck of citizens.

[ - ] Shitstartercarter 3 points 4 monthsFeb 16, 2025 08:04:05 ago (+3/-0)

Unconstitutional. Fuck her. 2nd Amendment was put there for people like her.

Elites don’t want to end violence. They want a monopoly on it. Just like the middle ages. Only the beautiful people and their lackeys could own swords.

[ - ] SumerBreeze 3 points 4 monthsFeb 15, 2025 21:16:49 ago (+3/-0)

The elites were rarely beautiful. They have plastic surgery nowadays…

Poor women were raped by the elite far more often than the ugly elite women - that’s for sure!

I don't know about that. A lot of inbreeding for a very long time. Habsburg jaw, for example.

Something else that interested me the second I heard it (because I love cousin-fucking)...one of the major factors that contributed to the breakdown of large family dynasties was the Church's strict laws against cousins marrying. I thought this was fascinating. Bring back cousin-fucking. It's the only way.

[ - ] PostWallHelena 0 points 4 monthsFeb 16, 2025 09:39:04 ago (+0/-0)

Seems like the nobility did a fair amount of cousin fucking (eg Hapsburgs) although I know there was a church ban on it (the gaelic word for cousin translates to something like ‘ban on close relation’ ) Anyhow, I too have wondered if we are too outbred. The benefits of cousin marriage would be tribal cohesion— stronger group loyalty. The penalties might be increased tribalism or balkanisation.

I researched cousin fucking (not empirically!) and I learned that occassional instances of cousin marriage are not dysgenic— in fact they may improve fertility (lower rates of miscarriage, I assume because of genetic compatibility). Its when many successive generations of cousins marry that you have birth defects. Banning cousin marriage might have had several important effects on europeans. If we were to bring it back, it would have to be in a limited way because too much of it could be bad.

[ - ] CHIRO 0 points 4 monthsFeb 16, 2025 09:51:43 ago (+0/-0)

Right. This was sort of the intuition I had. I don't know enough about the subject to say what's what, but the sociological benefits seemed clear to me, and if we're assuming larger families generally, then we can also include 2nd and 3rd cousins, which would increase the pool substantially. I mean, by the time we get to second cousins, these people don't even share the same grandparents.

[ - ] CHIRO 0 points 4 monthsFeb 16, 2025 09:53:41 ago (+0/-0)

You wanna be cousins? Will it get you there if I say I'm your first cousin?

[ - ] Portmanure 1 point 4 monthsFeb 15, 2025 21:05:33 ago (+1/-0)

I believe that militia training is protected by the 1st amendment, this law won’t stand up in court.

2nd

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

[ - ] Portmanure 4 points 4 monthsFeb 15, 2025 23:49:26 ago (+4/-0)

I was thinking along the lines that in addition to infringing on the 2nd, that a government not allowing a group to discuss militia related topics is a clear violation of free speech
