Having been to a number of city council meetings and watched more online, everyone goes over their talking time. That’s normal, and they all get chastised, and the reps try to talk over them to stop them. I’ve never ever seen someone break furniture and then glare at the speaker. It doesn’t matter if she went over her…

You must not watch much testimony because nearly 100 percent of speakers go over time even when warned repeatedly that their time is up. Never before, however - never - has anyone so violently reacted as to smash a glass table as a signal to end their talk.

Yeah, that original comment was either uninformed or just trolling.

I spend a lot of time in the Texas lege and I can tell you that Schwertner has let plenty of men and/or conservatives go over their allotted time when testifying.

Or a more cowardly person than you. I live by myself, I don’t want a confrontation at my house (aka my safe space).

It’s sad how desperate they are for affirmation from liberals that they’re actually good people. When they don’t get it, they flip out.

The petty me says do it anyways.

You are a better person than me.

Why bother holding back? Call out hypocrisy as you see it.

Yet another example of the right incorrectly equating bald-faced aggression and bullying as effective leadership.

I do for the mens side, power and authority, what I don’t understand is the women who fuck them or become their wives.

Because we’re terrified of what you’ll do with that power we “lose”.

someone started a private group just for conservatives in the neighborhood so they can share their hate without being shamed (there was a follow-up post about how members shouldn’t be concerned about joining as the membership of the group is hidden)

Ugh that’s awful. Well hypocrisy and projection seems like the GOP’s greatest strength.

Deplorables are the biggest snowflakes around.

On my neighborhood, someone made a bunch of signs welcoming immigrants and offered them to everyone in our Next Door neighborhood. Most people replied with support, the people that didn’t got replies to their replies (“maybe you should post your address so these refugees can come and live with you”) full of…

MISOGYNIST SMASH!

I thought they loved people telling it like it is? And they say we’re snowflakes, triggered and need safe spaces. They’re following the footsteps of their orange overlord.

Sen. Schwertner later stated that he was actually attempting to break the glass ceiling.
