Here’s what The First Amendment says about offensive speech:
-I have the right to offend you.
-You have no right to protection from being offended.
You can choose to be offended at pretty much everything I say, if you like. And if that bothers me, or if I’m offended by anything you say, that’s too fucking bad for me.
But that’s okay. Because I also have the right to ignore you.
And I will.
I can see why Democrats are nervous about killing the Filibuster. Why? Because it will be gone FOREVER. Permanently. No take backs. Both parties might have to actually have to start governing, instead of just blaming the other for everything. Don’t believe me? Hear me out.
Let’s say the Republicans come back to hold a majority in the Senate. I prefer that this never happens, of course. At least not THIS Republican party. Anyway, let’s say they do take back the Senate.
The LAST thing they would do is reinstate the Filibuster. Because if they DID, they would suddenly need 60 votes to pass anything instead of just 50. Why would they want to give the Democrats 10 votes? They wouldn’t.
Democrats should repeal the Filibuster immediately, and start governing. Expect the Republicans to do the same when they get a majority. Everybody needs to put on their big boy pants and learn to compromise.
Both parties need to start serving the people who elected them, not just the corporations and rich bastards who exploit the rest of us for their own gain. We’re tired of dying so the rich can get richer and have more power to fuck us in the ass with.
Truth. Help save the planet. Grow weed outside. Grow hemp outside. We must use these crops and all the gifts they provide us, while at the same time pulling tons of CO2 out of the air and turning it into clothing, power, and a dank buzz 4 all!
Time to Legalize it NOW. Legal cannabis a huge part of the #GreenNewDeal, both economically and for the health of the planet!
Mandating Indoor #Cannabis Cultivation Is Bad for Environment. https://bit.ly/3cwWfx8
Believe it or not, I’ve been spending some time in the studio during this fucking pandemic. More on that later. But…Here’s a quick video clip from a recent jam session that I decided I’d use to try and sharpen my video? making skills.
Yeah…they still need some sharpening ?~jg
