Dunno. I'm just saying and not really caring anymore as an outsider.


Never said this. Go vote, it's your privilege but just don't expect shit to change, with how broken everything is in your country and how that conservative and equally power-hungry democratic party wants to maintain its power.
Yea...sorry but you're just in the wrong here.

If you are not caring, then why the fuck are you in this thread?
"not really caring anymore"
Just tried of the US political system and how that shit effects the whole world and how you can't escape all that even on the other side of the world. I would be all in for fixing your shit, but I don't see this happening with just voring. That's all.

But please, continue talking about the topic before this all derails

Bum rush past them, and if they try to fight back, knock them the fuck out.

Or watch them scatter like cockroaches if a whole bunch of black people showed up

I know it wouldn't help. But I get the emotion of it. These people are legit enemies of 'the people' at this point.
If they keep pushing, that's what it will eventually come to. Not saying it will go well, but the right has already been commiting a lot of political violence, and it has gone mainstream with them. I hope we can turn things around before things blow up entirely, and get enough of them to back off. Not confident though.

Were they actually blocking people from going in or were they just being incredibly annoying and obnoxious to people coming in to vote?

Regardless, this won't be a good sign for November. I recall in 2016 there were people showing up with guns to monitor lines and no one did anything about it. I fully expect some horrible shit to go down on Election Day.

We're trying to do something, don't come tell people that what they're doing won't make a difference, that's just trash to come in here and say. It starts here, no one said this is where it ends.

That's a cynical and potentially very dangerous point of view...

"Nothing will change, nobody can do anything, let's do nothing"

People right now need the exact opposite of the attitude you're displaying.

I never understood how it's legal to have anything that is even remotely close to campaigning any candidate on a polling site premises.

As others stated it's not, you aren't even allowed to wear anything campaign related. All of them should be cited but because they are fucking white they get away with everything. The governors should come out on tv and remind people about the laws because these MAGA assholes just don't fucking get it.

Either way, its illegal, most states (if not all states) have laws about this. You can't harass, do this stuff within XYZ feet of the polling station etc.

Things will be worse for the whole world if Trump wins. Did you not see his potential nuke plans?

This has been their gameplan since it became obvious back in June: destabilize public trust in institutions (voting/mail in voting), galvanize the base (demonizing protests, antifa, praise the Kenosha shooter), and pave the way to a win through manipulating gerrymandered state legislations, the DoJ, and conservative judges. Theyll hammer through a 3rd Trump SCOTUS justice who is a woman so they can justify destroying Roe v Wade and their fascism to their base and, once again, use the shittiness of the chaotic situation THEY have fabricated to keep Liberals and the left on the defensive. Their supporters will show up and intimidate voters and the cops will do nothing because the GOP has made clear aligned interests with a "law and order" police state which, once again, solidifies and justifis the ideology theyre feeding their base. Theyre trying to do the same shit they did in 2000, and theyre not going to even try to lie about it.

Now on the topic of violence, I want to remind people that they weaponized a pandemic, and continue to do so. It has cost about 200,000 American lives (the lowball eetimate) with a lot more to come, and caused permanent damage to who knows how many others.

They intentionally thought they could kill people mainly in blue states because they lacked the brains to understand the exponential rate these things spread at, and that viruses don't give a shit about borders on a map. They lie about the virus every day, and even taunt us over it.

It's mass murder.

The political violence is already here, it's just very one sided.

I can't actually tell what's happening in those videos other than a crowd of Trump idiots being obnoxious. If they are physically blocking people from entering to go vote then they can get fucked.

If votes weren't suppressed and more people were allowed to vote and be represented, more would be fixed. Which is entirely on topic for what happened there today. It just happened to occur outside in full view instead of a closed-door purge of voter rolls or a quiet decrease in the number of polling places.

You know, in the past twelve hours, we have heard sitting elected representatives in the US calling for expanding the Supreme court, that we never would have heard this from before. The pressures and protests the past few years have been working. So this "more than voting" is already happening. Keep looking out for it.

Fuck all the "just push past them" or "just go around them" comments. Yes, I get that you feel that effort needs to be put in, and that's a good thing, but not everybody is you. This behavior is going to dissuade people who may not care as strongly as you but would still vote for Biden, or those who may have legitimate reason to physically fear a large crowd of shithead white trash who may be armed and looking for an excuse.

And you need those people if you're going to win.

I can't believe people are still credulously posting stuff like "they can't do that, that's illegal!", too.

If this was anti-Trump protesters the police would have brought out the tear gas, kettled them, beat them, and arrested them en masse.

Don't these people have jobs to go to?
Probably not judging by a lot of the Trump supporters I've interacted with, they're another example of the projecting "Conservatives" do.

Seriously. Why haven't they lost any organs/had a car run them over when that seems to be what happens at protests? One of life's great mysteries.

We gotta beat these fuckers.

When you say this is illegal are we talking about 'Go to jail' illegal, or 'jay-walking' illegal?

And yes I do understand that looking to the police to enforce these laws is very very silly. Just curious about the legality.

Can governors call the national guard to maintain polling stations on election night?
