Racism was geographic, not partisan. That dog won’t hunt
You are mistaken. I have no rights on your property.
The Constitution addresses government and only government.
No, they aren’t.
I get your point but go back to the original statement. I asked, can you restrict my right to carry in certain places in the context of private property. The answer there is obviously, yes. It’s your property. You said constitutionally, no. That’s not correct. Constitutionally, private property is private property. You can restrict my right to carry on your property and it’s perfectly Constitutional. As you stated, the Constitution only covers government. You can limit my rights on your property as you see fit, with a very few exceptions. Also, it’s perfectly Constitutional for government to limit carry in restricted areas so from that perspective, it’s also Constitutional for government to limit carry under certain circumstances. Surely no one will argue you have the right to carry a firearm in prison, right? Does the government have the right to restrict your access and carry on a military post? There are restrictions where and they can be perfectly constitutional. If they can restrict your movement to those locations, they can restrict your right to carry in those locations as well.
Of course they are. In Texas, you can go to places like hcad.org and get people’s address from their name. You have to make the deliberate action to wipe your name from the public record. Most people don’t even know you can do this.
Absolute nonsense. Who passed Jim Crow laws? Who started the KKK? Who passed red line laws? Who pushed for destructive policies that impact the minority communities like abortion? I can tie racist policy to Democrats and those policies continue today. Also, if you think racism was limited to the South, you’re just misinformed. There are thousands of examples of the same kind of racism up north that we saw down south. I know we’ve tried to paint it as a south thing in a historical context but that’s just flat out wrong. Yes, there were egregious examples down south but there was plenty of racism up north. I’m sick and tired of this nonsense being painted as solely geographic. Just take a look at the horrific policies in places like Detroit and Baltimore over the past century.

So much 'splaining in here. Gross. lol
Read the law, it doesn’t seem to discriminate, although as part of Obama’s legacy enforcement and punishment of laws does!
Democrat opponents are doxed all the time with impunity, elected Democrat screeds to incite intimidation against political opponents go on with impunity and when Democrats are in control and it benefits them, they never condemn it, they actually encourage it. The lawlessness became “In our face” blatant during the Obama Administration and now it’s building back better under ole Joe.
To simplify for you…crime and criminal intend A-OKAY for Democrats no punishment but for their political opponents it’s NOT OKAY and the punishment is severe. (1/6/2020).

Yeah, but that’s a little disingenuous. The Southern Strategy resulted in a lot of the racist democrats being courted by, and then joining the GOP. Good 'ole Nixon!
True, re: racism all over. It’s probably more associated with teh south because of the civil war. And yeah, while blacks were free in the north, there was still tons of rasism.
Bless your heart.

I seem to remember the NY legislature giving a standing ovation to a bill allowing abortion right up to birth.
They are not alone. It sickened me watching them.

I always laugh at the “big switch” nonsense. There were a couple that switched, they always point to Strom Thurmond. Well, there were a TON who didn’t switch, like Robert KKK Byrd. You know what DIDN’T change? Democrat policies.

Which policies are you referring to?
Oh, I don’t know. Welfare policies, light on crime policies, socialism, government forced healthcare, gun control… essentially the Democrat platform.
You don’t see those as different from teh Southern Strategy era southern dems?

Byrd never switched and was a big hero to the dems.
Interesting!

I don’t accept that the majority of them swapped parties. Give us the list of people that switched from Dixiecrats to Republican. Why would racist Southerners vote for the party that pushed for the CRA of 64? There was a lot of flip-flopping in the south for many years but the southern strategy was another Democrat lie. Almost NONE of the Dixiecrats changed parties. Thurmond is the lone example that everyone refers to. It’s just a pathetic attempt to allow democrats to try to wash off their disgusting history of racism, which quite frankly still exists today. They’re just a little more careful about how they say it, by insisting that Republicans are the real racists, then pursuing policies that make life hell on black Americans in the cities that have been run by Democrats for 50+ years.
