    So leftwingers shut down official proceedings in because the refused to let the legislative process take place all because of, you guessed it, tranny stuff.

    This is like the second left wing insurrection in a month and I’m starting to think they’re becoming a real threat to our democracy.

    Riot police descend on Montana capitol as left-wing protestors shut down proceedings: Reports

    The protestors disrupted proceedings in support of censured transgender lawmaker Zooey Zephyr, a Democrat

    Riot police have descended on Montana's capitol after left-wing protestors disrupted proceedings in the state House of Representatives in support of transgender lawmaker Zooey Zephyr, a Democrat, who was censured by the body last week, multiple reports have said.

    According to The Independent, an unknown number of protestors were arrested Monday when police units from the Montana Highway Patrol and the Lewis and Clark County sheriff’s office commenced an operation to break up the group packing the observation gallery of the House chamber.

    Who cares about Montana? The whole state is less than a big city.

    @Steve N

    Your own need to falsify the title of your linked article, in your thread title, says all that needs be said, about your "insurrection" thread.

    The left doesn’t care about insurrections. They just pretend to. Their own participate in it several times the way couple years by their own standards.

    Wow. Let's look at the original issue: representative Zooey Zephyr was censored for saying "The only thing I will say, is if you vote yes on this bill and yes on these amendments, I hope the next time there’s an invocation when you bow your heads in prayer, you see the blood on your hands"
    Really?
    The expression 'blood on your hands' sends you into conniptions? The self viewed victimhood of republicans in power knows no end. You guys are such snow flakes

    NOTHING about "insurrection" in the Title of linked article.
    The Title that I see is:
    Riot police descend on Montana capitol as left-wing protestors shut down proceedings: Reports
    ^The word "insurrection" is nowhere to be found....:bored:
    Anyway, as to the actual topic:
    ***There was NO "insurrection" and such a characterization is beyond misguided...
    It was merely a citizen's protest against a legislator being denied free speech:
    The interruption is the latest development in a three-day fight over Montana state representative Zooey Zephyr’s remarks against lawmakers who support a ban on gender-affirming care. Zephyr, who is trans and a first-term Democrat, hasn’t been allowed to speak on the state house floor
    "insurrection"? Totally LMAO!:bored:

    @Steve N has become a magician. He can pull an insurrection out of a protest hat.

    Indeed. So why the massive rightwing hysteria?
    I haven’t seen such delirious hysteria against a harmless minority since the Jew bashing in prewar Germany.

    Lol.

    Dismiss the case when you have no logical argument.

    And this folks, is why we have an electoral college.

    Because the left feels the need to bring their minority status into every facet of life pretending to themselves their solving some false injustice that doesn't exist?

    The left creates victims and proclaims a social justice agenda for no other purpose than to feel they are making progress to satisfy their own egos.

    No, VIOLENTLY disrupting a government proceeding is PART of the definition of an insurrection.

    What is the proceeding? Is it the process by which power is transferred from the outgoing administration to the incoming, legally elected, administration?
    Was any kind of force employed by the protestors?
    Were they there illegally?

    I don’t care?

    We could completely give Montana to Canada and it would have 0 impact on me. Woopity doo.

    Ok, since I support the electoral college. Yeah.
