What if Trudeau was like Ron Desantis?

That would mean Trudeau would pass a law that would have made it legal to run down and kill the freedom Trucker protesters in Ottawa blocking the streets. I wonder how many would support that?

I’m glad Canadians have resisted the authoritarian nonsense that Americans are suffering from in some right wing states .

@jackjjackson are you denying the Florida law?
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
Your ridiculous hypothetical that would never occur is pure douchebaggery. @Ryderbike
@jackjjackson what hypothetical? That’s exactly the law Florida passed ,

No one has or will get run over jackass. You’re just trolling lies as per usual. @Ryderbike
@jackjjackson really? On Monday, Florida governor Ron DeSantis signed an “anti-riot bill” into law that, among other things, grants civil immunity to people who decide to drive their cars into protesters who are blocking a road. The bill, which was drafted in the wake of last summer’s Black Lives Matter protests, also penalizes local governments that interfere with efforts to stop riots; prevents people accused of rioting from being bailed out of jail until after their first court appearance; and makes it a second-degree felony to destroy a plaque, memorial, painting, flag, or other structure commemorating historical people or events (like, say, Confederate statutes). That would make such actions punishable by up to a decade in prison.
@jackjjackson This comes after an alarming surge of vehicle-ramming attacks against protesters across the country. Between May and October 2020, there were over 100 incidents of drivers going into crowds of protesters—about half of which were confirmed to be intentional, according to research by Ari Weil, a terrorism researcher at the University of Chicago's Chicago Project on Security and Threats.

That is a complete fabrication and deliberately deceitful commentary regarding that statute. @Ryderbike
@jackjjackson You can’t seriously be that stupid?

Here’s a recommendation dirtbag, when you references a source do a little research and avoid misrepresentation.

As you well know there has been a ton of violence and misbehavior on the left which you either choose to ignore, excuse or falsely justified.

You obviously think people believe your nonsense at face value. Just because you write something doesn’t make it true. From what I’ve seen, it’s smart to assume whatever you write is false. @Ryderbike
@jackjjackson You don’t have to believe anything. It’s quite easy to do the research and you’ll find plenty of information on the Florida law as well as the court cases regarding the law. But if you’re in a cult and you’re a radicalized extremist, I doubt you’ll do any research.

Typical of your kind when confronted with reason you are only able to respond with name calling. You’ve proved yourself to be no more than a know nothing bigot. @Ryderbike
@jackjjackson I gave you plenty of links but your cult filter is on,

Now go do your lockstep monkey chant “lock her up”

Or “hang mike pence” like a good little fascist

Actually the “link” that you misquoted was debunked when I posted the self created bio of the nut job who created the “link” you misquoted. You can read is that correct? @Ryderbike
@jackjjackson There’s multiple links and nothing has been debunked. In fact a federal court has ruled that the bill is unconstitutional and it went on appeal.
@jackjjackson ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Florida's new "anti-riot" law championed by Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis as a way to quell violent protests is unconstitutional and cannot be enforced, a federal judge ruled Thursday.

The 90-page decision by U.S. District Judge Mark Walker in Tallahassee found the recently-enacted law "vague and overbroad" and amounted to an assault on First Amendment rights of free speech and assembly as well as the Constitution's due process protections.

People engaged in peaceful protest or innocently in the same area when a demonstration turned violent could face criminal charges and stiff penalties under the law, the judge said.

A key issue is defining what the word "riot" means in the statute. Walker noted that past Florida laws sought to prevent demonstrations that could threaten segregationist Jim Crow-era practices.

"If this court does not enjoin the statute's enforcement, the lawless actions of a few rogue individuals could effectively criminalize the protected speech of hundreds, if not thousands, of law-abiding Floridians," Walker wrote.

"It unfortunately takes only a handful of bad actors to transform a peaceful protest into a violent public disturbance," the judge added.

DeSantis said during an appearance in New Port Richey that the state will take its case to the Atlanta-based 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. The governor called the ruling by Walker a "foreordained conclusion" and has said he frequently prevails when appealing Tallahassee judges' orders.

I agree with the Court and I believe the decision will be upheld on appeal. What exactly is your problem please? @Ryderbike
@jackjjackson https://www.cbsnews.com/miami/news/federal-judge-blocks-floridas-republican-backed-anti-riot-law/
@jackjjackson what decision you claimed it wasn’t true ,?

You claimed I made it up. So it’s constitutional to run down people that are protesting. That’s what I told you in the first place.
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
As the Court wrote as common sense says that misbehavior isn’t constitutional. As I wrote above I believe the decision will be affirmed on appeal. You seem confused. @Ryderbike
@jackjjackson What decision for what? What is he trying to pass?
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
Please try to keep up. The Court decision declaring that hot mess unconstitutional. @Ryderbike
@jackjjackson What’s unconstitutional? The story I made up?
