NC is already so gerrymandered that they can only find one seat to get rid of . I hate living in this fucking state.
If you still have a democracy in a few years, they will run out of seats gerrymander 🤷♂️
What a ridiculously undemocratic country the U.S. is. How on earth can this be legal?
As it turns out, American democracy was almost entirely dependent on norms and honor more than laws with consequences.
What do you think other governments are built on? A genie that upholds the law? Germany presently has a nazi party. This is something that can and is happening in other democracies.
There are plenty of laws that would prevent what’s happening right now, but half of congress decided they’d rather become fascist cultists than enforce them.
Back in the day, honor was a more tangible thing. People with beef would shoot at each other with smooth bore pistols. The point was they were wildly inaccurate and most people would stand their ground and walk away, honor intact. That isnt a thing in [checks year]… Guns are far too accurate, swords are very out of fashion, and Chess-Boxing never really took off. There does not appear to be a modern evolution of that tradition and I feel like society would do well to find something to fill that void (without the lethality… obviously… but that was partially the point back then).
The lethality and equal bearings were the point. Chess boxing just leaves it open to strong people threatening to beat you up if you have a problem. Dueling was you agreeing you’re willing to kill or die for your honor
Fair, plus the law never looked kindly on it. Just because you would get dressed up to shoot at some one does not mean you didnt shoot someone.
We have MMA now, though…
Do you know how many billions of dollars could be made if legal disputes were settled through trial by combat?
If Trump would have challenged Biden to a cage match the settle the election,everyone in the world would have watched the pay per view!
Wait… I don’t think I could handle watching Trump roll around shirtless in a diaper trying to fight…
A country built on the pinky swear.
America law was based on English common law, and we are have very similar problems
It’s not. But laws require enforcement to matter.
What a beautiful handsome face lol
