    This, as the MI GOP looked at GA and took notes on how to suppress the vote.
    His non-apology on Twitter is typical. He's also been blocking people responding negatively to it, because he is a coward.

    • The GOP’s future, inspired by the out-and-proud Naziism of Trump, is now. A Kentucky law would make it a crime to insult a cop. A Georgia law virtually makes it a crime to vote while black. A Florida law prescribes 15 years in prison if someone you associate with commits an act of violence while black.
      None of these are supported by majorities, even in the confederate states where the jack-booted thugs run everything. This is serious, desperate, unAmerican, and the last horrifying gasp of the most evil and power hungry people in the country. But it won’t go away on its own. Let’s put it down.

        The ambiguity of this potential law has made for light joking on Twitter and TikTok, but has grave consequences to it.

        https://apps.legislature.ky.gov/reco.../orig_bill.pdf

        Anyone who "Accosts, insults, taunts, or challenges a law enforcement officer with offensive or derisive words, or by gestures or other physical contact, that would have a direct tendency to provoke a violent response from the perspective of a reasonable and prudent person," would be guilty of disorderly conduct in the second degree.



        So who's the reasonable and prudent person to determine how serious an insult/taunt is? The cop's partner? A comedy writer hired by the county prosecutor? Will there be a written guideline of approved jokes?

        Does that make an ACAB bumper sticker a reason to pull you over and is now an arrestable offense?

        Is rolling though the Parkwood neighborhood of Louisville, KY with your windows down and old school N.W.A. on your speakers now a misdemeanor?

                • Wisconsin drivers are fine, so far Michiganders are fine as well. Illinois Drivers (especially around Chicago) are insane and this is not news. They never use their mirrors, their signals or their horns. It is the Wild Wild West on the highways anywhere near Illinois and in Chicago buckle the **** up! I am in in Illinois a lot my gf has family there and well, certain things are legal there that aren't in Minnesota yet ;^)

                  Every state has a bad trait for drivers...but Illinois has all of them.

                    Hey now, I resemble those remarks. :-p

                    Yes, traffic can be wild if you're not used to it. For me being here now since 2006, this is tame. One year ago with the pandemic traffic free roads, *THAT* was the wild west. If you weren't doing 30+ over the speed limit, you were going to get your *ss run over. Even doing 90+, you still were going to get passed regularly on the Tollways/Expressways.

                    The City (of Chicago) driving is much more defensive/aggressive than the suburbs, and anything outside of the Chicagoland collar counties is just impostor syndrome for driving (looking at you Rockford). City driving is a combination of "I have a beater, I may or may not have insurance and a license, and I may or may not have a warrant," to "Mommy and Daddy bought me this BMW for my 32nd birthday," to "Awww sh**, I gotta drive into the city for work?" types of drivers. Everywhere has them, it's just that you're not used to the pattern of the Chicago drivers.

                    Suburbs have the occasional "Double You Tee Eff?" moments, but they're more random and occasional.




                    Tl;dr: It's the tourists who fu** things up when they try to drive in Chicagoland.

                      We need to face off Illinois drivers with Massachusetts drivers. Mass drivers:

                      1. Are not competent drivers
                      2. Are aggressive
                      3. Are entitled
                      4. Are actively hostile to regulation

                      A Massachusetts person + a car = a Texan without driving skills.

                      • Though ironically the worst drivers I have ever seen are Utavians. I assume it's because they want to get to their magic all-white planet.

                        • My vote goes to New Mexico. They are all seemingly bad but with no common traits. They are all bad in very different ways, which prevents being able to adjust to the badness.

                            It's more a matter of who are good drivers. My votes would be Oregon and Washington. Polite and proficient. Driving in 9 months of near constant rainfall makes people habitually careful and alert.

                            Plus, just better people.

                              That's been my experience with Washington too.

                                My gf said Mass drivers are worse (she has dealt with both) but more because of how messed up the roads are. She refuses to drive anywhere near the Chicago Loop though and often wont even look up because of how ridiculous the drivers are.

                                aparch mentioned Rockford...that is a weird area because it is a lot of Wisconsin Drivers and Minnesota Drivers following the Wisconsin rules (slow traffic keeps right, everyone goes fast around each other to screw over the cops radars) and then it is Illinois Drivers ping ponging around like their appointment at the dispensary is about to expire or something.(the only reason any of us would ever go there!) You can ALWAYS pick out the Illinois driver in the bunch.
