spec5 Posted May 30, 2017 at 08:01 PM Share Posted May 30, 2017 at 08:01 PM Protest made national news. People tied themselves together outside of governors office making a big spectacle and yelling. That's the way to be heard may complete fools of yourselves. Not the polite group we have at IGOLD. The National news doesn't cover our march. They cover them because they're making a spectacle of themselves. I'm sure the news is waiting for violence to irrupt when they have to clear the capital.

spec5 Posted May 30, 2017 at 08:15 PM Share Posted May 30, 2017 at 08:15 PM Lack of a budget I think. I say I think because I'm sure some are there for other reason just to cause trouble when they have to clear the Capitol building. National news said the budget.

kemikos Posted May 30, 2017 at 09:54 PM Share Posted May 30, 2017 at 09:54 PM Very telling that Gun Dealer Licensing is in a holding pattern. I think now they're primarily trying to prevent a spectacle where it goes down in flames in a very public defeat, and also they may be waiting for miracle- like 10 of the bill's opponents all get sick on the same day or something like that...Unless I'm misremembering, am absence is as good as a "no" vote; a bill needs 50% + 1 of the possible votes to be "yes" in order to pass. In other words, in the house, since there are 118 Representatives, it needs 60 "yes" votes to pass no matter how many "no"s there are. In other words, if there were only 59 reps present one day, and they all voted "yes" on a bill, it would not pass even though it was a "unanimous" vote. (This could never happen because of quorum rules; I'm just making an example.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
