    @Catseye3 said in Expulsion from Tennessee House of Representatives:

    We can't allow Jan 6 to become some sort of example for behavior in our legislative halls.

    This has been going on much longer than Jan 6. This happened during Scott Walker's administration in Madison, and everyone shrugged - mostly peaceful protest, don'tcha know.

    I'm glad they're making it a FAFO moment. Rules is rules.

          An answerable question. Someone(s) voted to expel the two without voting to expel the third. What were their reasons?

            I'm of mixed thoughts on this. If they were expelled for disrupting proceedings and something "insurrection-ey", that's fine. Throw their asses out.

            OTOH, from what I see, they were expelled for "rules violations." That seems a bit harsh.

              They came up one vote short on the white gal. If they were going to chunk them, chunk all three.

                Yeah, that's a bad look, to be sure, unless her behavior was "less bad" than the others'.

                                        ETA: And she didn't even climb the hobby horse of gun control. Nope, she went to support an insurrection because "democracy."

                                          @Mik did you notice she didn't visit the families of the victims? She wrapped herself in their bloody bandages to score political points.

                                          Certain words leap to my mind.
                                          Understandably because of polite company,
                                          None of them will pass

                                          Well, all the shooting victims were Christians...

                                          Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton
