Look at all the protests due to overreaching power from these tyrannical government. It’s ridiculous and I can’t believe they want absentee mail in. New York Cali Michigan are stomping on our constitution and it’s something they have there oath to and are breaking there oath of office. How come these people aren’t arrested?

Because they've yet to do anything provably illegal. And if they have then there seems to be a stunning lack of people willing to prosecute. Prosecution's the important thing there, a man could commit all the tax orvoting fraud he liked if there was no one to charge him.

And why is that I wonder? Perhaps it's in part because people complain about corrupt politicians without ever going out and giving us some alternatives. When I went to vote recently there were a good number of positions with only one candidate, usually a democrat. Two didn't have any candidates.

People see politics as a dishonorable profession, fair enough, it's rather earned that reputation. But if said honorable people all turn up their noses at the idea of involving themselves, and then complain when other folk do, well then I'm somewhat lacking in sympathy.

You can lack sympathy all you want, but every good person isn't necessarily cut out to be a politician. That doesn't make their opinion any less valid.
