Ms Greene had a town hall meeting this past Wednesday Jan. 27th evening in Rome, GA. All attendee's had to pre register to attend and if one wanted to ask a question, it had to be submitted in advance in writing.

A news crew from that area secured the registration and were permitted to attend. A reporter made the mistake of asking a question and the tv news crew was threatened with arrest by the local sheriff's office. LInk is attached:


WRCB-TV: Channel 3 crew threatened with arrest after asking ...www.wrcbtv.com › story › channel-3-crew-threatened-... ooh almost forgot, after watching the footage, only a few had a mask on.

How's that for your representative? Better than mine I guess, another Republican that was first elected in 2016 and has yet to hold any kind of public appearance, but always he attends donor meetings, club functions, etc.

Are you saying you don't know anything about her. All you have to do is listen to what comes out of her mouth and what her beliefs are.

That's not their only problem. They keep dropping their seed all over town breeding with no consequences.

Many republicans believe Democrats want to pass laws go ban guns. When they feel threaten, rationality goes out the window.

The republican party seems to be very happy with the new elected officials the Qanon woman from Georgia, the younger one from Colorado and the newer senators who unconditionally support 45 like the Alabama and Missouri senators. It's like having 45 back, different versions of 45.

I think republicans are very happy so many people were willing to storm the Capitol for their leader. I think they want those to be the faces of the republican party. These people were willing to get arrested or even shot just to defend their leader. These people can be used in the future to keep democrats in check. Like they do in many dictatorships, they use their own citizens to watch their neighbors.

Ummm... The Northern Virginia Regional Gang Task Force will no longer use the GangNet database that catalogs thousands of gang members and gang-affiliated persons in the DC Metropolitan area because the database lists a highly disproportionate number of minorities.

Is the following data surprising to some? Do people really not know which demographic groups are much more likely to be gang members?

Approximately 95% percent of the at least 134,242 Chicagoans listed as gang members by the Chicago Police Department are Black or Latino, according to a report released by the city:

No clue if voters were aware she is a whack job or perhaps it did not matter given she was over the top, pro Trump.
No more a "whack job" than AOC. If we are going to elect radical idiots into office, we may as well go all the way with idiots from both sides of the political spectrum.

Does she believe that school shootings like Sandy Hook are a 'false flag'? Does she believe in executing Republican lawmakers?

Has she posed with a rifle with pictures of Republican congresscritters?

Does she spew anti-semetic views?

The answer to all those questions are NO.

Therefore, AOC is nowhere near the radical WHACK JOB that MTG is.

Let's live in reality not the reality that Republicans choose to see.

We disagree. And your "reality" is no more reality than anyone else's. You are no more important that anyone else. Your opinion is no more valid than anyone else's. That applies to all of us.

So when I say that AOC is more of a whack job and more dangerous than Greene, I have very specific reasons for this opinion. And you have very specific reasons for your opinion, I'm sure. See how that works?

And is there anything wrong with a rifle? You act like she cut someone's heart out and took a bite. A rifle! Oh my God! How horrible!
