No. Stop blocking ambulances first. We don’t need a perfect system before we have any laws.

We have laws. You keep pretending we don't because you want to make protesting a felony.

you want to make protesting a felony.

Having fun with your strawman? Where did I say that? Go ahead fucking show me

You have been calling anything less "lawlessness" constantly.

Where did I say that?

Evidently need to repeat myself.

So we're in agreement that we don't need to make protesters felons, then. Good. This proposed law is completely unnecessary.

We are not in agreement. Tell your friends to stop blocking ambulances

Tell your friends to stop murdering black people.

You just want to make contempt of pig a felony.

And after the 3rd strawman you are blocked. Thanks for playing.

Hey, I gave you a way to pretend you didn't want to make anyone who opposes police murdering black people into felons.

Instead, you chose to pretend that you care at all about ambulances and use that as an excuse to lie about what I support.

If you're not lying about blocking me like you've been doing about your position and my own all thread, I'm glad that your bootlicking support for racist police will no longer pollute my inbox.
