Description

The following quote from Erlichman clearly explains how the republicans knew they were intentionally misleading the public in order to strip voting rights from progressives through criminalizing the personal use of marijuana. Read the article. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/dec/22/america-fascism-legal-phase “An excellent example of intentional manipulation to deprive citizens of their rights is clearly spelled out in a statement from former President Nixon's administration: John Ehrlichman-“You understand what I’m saying? We knew we couldn’t make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin. And then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities. We could arrest their leaders, raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did…” Consider the literally millions and millions of people who have been criminalized by their tactics! Not only losing your voting rights but losing your ability to possess a firearm FOREVER! Consider a provisional basic right of Self Defense, as upheld by the Supreme Court, stripped away because republicans refuse to allow any pathway to restoration of those rights. They have keep funding from providing the investigative background checks required for those who have applied. You can apply for restoration, you just never get there! TWO OF YOUR RIGHTS, GUARANTEED BY THE CONSTITUTION, STOLEN BY CHICKENSHIT TACTICS. Who are the liars? Who are the deniers? Who is taking your rights? It is not democrats.
