We need ranked choice voting, and this 2 party system is complete bullshit and needs to go. Obviously, neither will happen, but it should.

His VP isn't popular tho. Kamala would get absolutely crushed by Trump

Sounds nice and fair. Also won't ever happen. Our options will always be giant douche or turd sandwich.

Lol, my state, county, and city are so deep red that there's no chance. Most local primaries, there's not even a democrat on the ballots. My options are to write in my favorite fictional characters or vote for the least shitbag republicans. My votes are quite literally a waste.

He can't say, 'Help me with my re-election fund' and then divert the money to E. Jean Carroll, that would be a crime."

Fucking lol. As if something being a crime would ever stop him from doing it. What's anyone going to do? Fine him? Rinse and repeat. The bullshit won't end until the motherfucker is dead or in prison and only one of those things is ever going to happen.

You heard the man. Don't kink shame

Also worth noting Speaker Cam Sexton doesn't even live in the district he represents and shouldn't even be eligible to be elected. TN GOP is such a supermajority it makes everything the "Tennesse three" even more impressive because they know they'll always be squashed and out voted. It's all about making noise for the public to take notice and maybe one day stop voting for the shitheads running this state.

We tried calling in the police but strangely they were all busy with some other event.

How about a fucking nursing home and they can both stay there when it's over.

Fuck this guy and all the TNGop that gerrymandered Davidson county (Nashville) to get rid any dissenting opinions.

Surprisingly, in Tennessee now, too. Just wish it had been a thing 20 years ago

Are slippers not considered shoes?

I agree that homelessness SHOULD be a big issue any candidate running should make priority. But the fact is most MAGAs in this state are voting R all the way down the ticket whether the issues affect them or not. The failing school systems hasn't taught critical thinking in quite some time.

Governor Bill Lee is former CEO of Lee Company, a HVAC and home service company in Tennessee.

It's pretty easy to buy a gun in this state. If he does get flagged by the system the black market is flooded with them. There's an epidemic in Nashville (and probably many other places) of guns being stolen from vehicles. Almost no arrests are ever made, and yet people still leave firearms in their cars.

Weird seeing a fellow Preds fan in the wild of the fediverse! Only thing I miss about reddit is r/predators, lemmy just doesn't have the numbers for niche communities.

Just wanted to add it's not always a big dude doing the face punching. Go watch some videos of Jordin Tootoo in his heyday. Dude was tough as fuck and didn't back down from anybody.

Care to share with the class?

Sounds like a lot of work and planning ahead for being "too lazy to cook".

This is the way

That's why you order thin crust and get those toppings out to the edge

They passed a law a couple years ago for open carry. Anyone able to purchase a gun can have a loaded handgun with them concealed or not. It's basically the wild west out here.

And if any community will not receive and accept and welcome you, and they refuse to listen to you, when you depart, shake off the dust that is on your feet, for a testimony against them. [b]Truly I tell you, it will be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrah in the judgment day than for that town.

I'm no bible expert but it sounds to me like those unaccepting of these "homeless" disciples would have hellfire rain down upon them worse than literal sexual deviants.

Yeah wtf is this dude smoking? Bill Lee isn't on the Trump or DeSantis level(yet). But he's wayyy right leaning. Outside of Nashville, Memphis, Chattanooga, and Knoxville this state is as red as it gets.

I didn't think that 2017 team was going far in the playoffs and they shocked everybody. Maybe this team can make a run like that again. Nothing better in sports than playoff hockey!

I mean...American schools do have somewhat of a reputation... I can kinda see why parents would want their child to be able to contact them in an emergency.

Low income housing areas are notoriously dangerous. Why should anyone be forced to rent their own private property out to someone on government assistance?
