But RSOs have families and friends and most of all, motivation.

The majority does not really rule in this country–even those few things that the plutocrats are not already in charge of. What matters is not the majority view, but the views of the most motivated members of undecided, persuadable voters.

‘I’m so brave that I challenge strangers online.’

do YOU have the balls Dennis?

uhhh, it’s simply mental rape…they want to rape the rapists. The problem is, very few of the registered society would be evaluated as a madman rapist who will strike again. Maybe 7% tops and I’m sure its quite lower.

God bless you. What a wonderful testimony. I believe that with God on our side, the victory is ours. The Word of God can be and is a powerful supporter; politics, without God, is today our enemy. We need to quit being afraid to address both. Politics is not Republican or Democrat. It is one policy or another. We need to start evaluating policies and quit demonizing one party or another. Let the politicians and parties demonize themselves. Our faith in God can help us realize who is right and who is wrong. Our God is a God of love, forgiveness, life, and prosperity. He does not tolerate sin and rewards those who take a stand against it. Sin today is one of our society’s greatest enemies…and Satan knows it.

We have to start by telling the truth. I’m not saying everyone should answer the same way, but someone needs to grab hold of that question and fling it aside with the contempt it deserves.

Most of their constituents aren’t watching the meetings they’re watching Netflix or something. What matters in politics is not what the majority thinks but what the most motivated members of the persuadable ‘middle’ think. Those people tend to be more educated and thoughtful and we need to pitch the strategy to them not to the average bumpkin who is merely registered to vote.

Being half-apologetic when you are being kicked only encourages further kicks.

You’re absolutely right Jacob. In fact, I’d add:

“Of course not, and your question is frankly irrelevant to the issue. This issue concerns an unconstitutional restriction of liberties unjustified by any facts or evidence, and for you to bring into this discussion a question of victim-hood, shows that this commission is rather uninformed when it comes to protecting vulnerable citizens in this county. Perhaps the voters of this county would well consider new leadership in this commission. If the commission can’t use good judgement in this particular matter, how are we to trust it with equally weighty issues?”
