    Does this stance fall under the GOP doctrine of small government or states rights? I’m a little lost.

        Miller is what caused the “Uncanny Valley” phenomenon in early humans. He’s what prowled in the dark that looked human but wasn’t. And for long enough to warrant an evolutionary response.

    Reminder, the states give the federal government its power. Hence the country’s name. To say otherwise is moronic and ultimately leads to civil war to settle these dumbass disagreements. The objective here for Q-tip Pencil-Dick McGee is to persuade the public that it’s the other way around to justify the administration’s criminal actions.

    The “states’ rights” crowd is not very supportive of states’ right, right now.

      “States’ rights” has always been a bullshit lie. The confederacy did not honor states rights. The constitution explicitly instituted slavery as an institution an individual state could not abolish.

      States’ rights to abuse its citizens, no states’ rights to protect any of them.

      It wouldn’t surprise me if Miller was one of those “Skinny guys [that] fight 'til they’re burger.”

      I thought he might have been the source of Elmu’s black eye for a while.

      Easy to sound like a big man when you’re shouting from behind a few hundred marines.

      But that’s sort of the crux of the issue. Miller has the Miller-tary at his beck and call while Mayor Bass will be lucky if half her LAPD don’t turn and open fire on her because they say they smelled weed. The folks with the guns seem absolutely gleeful in stomping their boots on the necks of LA residents.
