Missouri State Rep. Mack confronts Rep. Basye over an anti-trans bill with beautiful righteous anger

[ElectricBlanketFire]

Thought this was worth a watch:

 

[PlanetSmasher]

Thank you, Rep. Mack. Sometimes the only way to make a point is to get really personal with it.

 

[zulux21]

It is indeed well worth the watch.

 

[Android Sophia]

That is powerful. Wow.

 

[Osu 16 Bit]

absolutely wonderful

 

[Mauricio_Magus]

Beautifully said.

 

[Mr. Snuffleupagus]

Strong words from a brave man.

 

[Jason's Ultimatum]

Short but powerful. You could tell he was nervous. You can't blame him. Keep fighting the good fight.

 

[PopsMaellard]

Incredible. Fuck everyone involved with this.

 

[Nepenthe]

This is the passion and eloquence I want to see from more of my representatives. Stand up to these assholes when you know you're in the right.

 

[Lucky Aces]

Short and sweet. He was nervous in the beginning, but then got rolling right after.

Nicely said good sir.

 

[Seneset]

Damn. Righteous anger indeed. So glad he was able to speak and he's right, it might take more time than we like but those people are going to lose in the end.

 

[krazen]

Love it; sick of the 'Shitty views, but we are good people!' and like how he called out how he was surprised his brother thought he was a hateful fuck.

 

[ForKevdo]

Damn, I want to see WAY more of that. Don't give these fuckers an inch. Make it personal.

What are the specifics of the bill?

 

[Merv]

This is so on point.

My inlaws would be like this.

"We love your trans kid, and would never do anything to hurt them, but also it's wrong what they're doing and I want laws to hurt them instead"

 

[Ultimate Bear Cub]

I fucking felt that fire holy shit.

 

[Einhander]

Beautiful. Should be everywhere honestly.

 

[Ouroboros]

Shit I teared up.

 

[Sersi]

This is powerful... Damn.

 

[LegendofJoe]

I wish we had thousands of more representatives like him. This is the leadership we need in the world.

 

[Isilia]

Sad that he is right that it will likely pass.

Glad that there are people who do care and try every day.

 

[Achtung]

Damn thats some good shit. We need more of this.. well said and powerful.

 

[nihilence]

Basye probably feels victimized after that righteous lashing.

 

[etrain911]

Honestly, I don't know how some of these people don't start throwing hands. Mad respect for the eloquence.

 

[Helix]

oh, the times I have had the urge to scream like this whenever people started talking about their bigoted ideas. glad I got to to see this and experience it vicariously through Rep. Mack

I like that he pretended not to know what the representative was referring to.

I'm sure he's probably going to complain and argue that Rep. Mack "brought family into it" or something.

 

[amon37]

Did the other representative say anything after that? I hate when the videos cut off there and I can't hear the other person struggling to rebuttal

Zero conscience, zero shame, zero self-reflection. There isn't a single good living Republican. The whole party is rotten through.

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

Indeed.

 

[nihilence]

Called it.

 

[Deleted member 1570]

Not even trying to deny that he's a hateful bigot.

 

[Deleted member 12323]

call him out on his twitter!

 

[AstronaughtE]

Why does a lawmaker need a conscious when they can be chemical dependent? Couple fingers of bourbon and an ambien and you're up and writing legislation by the time the cock crows.

Given how this is how he engages with his constituents...



I don't think I've ever heard of this fucker until today and he's already at the top of my shitlist.

 

[TaySan]

Mad respect for Mack standing up to bullies and assholes like Bayse

Not even trying to deny that he's a liar either...
