    Surely we would all actually show up to try to fight this, right? If it passed.

      Absolutely. People talk about another civil war. If you start hear ing about spontaneous violence in the streets, that’s when you need to worry. I think if this actually passed, we’d start hearing about stuff like that.

      Realistically, Republicans know this has no chance of passing. Frankly, I think this is just mean-spirited trolling–which is a good indicator of the state of our politics. We want to see the other side suffer.

        It’s the fascist version of all the pie-in-the-sky progressive stuff that gets introduced when they know they can’t get the votes. I wish more of them actually gave a shit about the American people as much as optics and pandering so they can keep sucking the megadonor teat.
