@@MattPSU02 per the Tennessee state constitution he definitely is. They consider your primary residence where your family resides primarily. He has a residence 6 miles from the Capitol and his children are enrolled in Nashville schools. That is where they and his wife primarily are therefore that is their primary residence.

Gloria's my representative. Justin J. Pearson is so correct about the state legislature being the battleground for democracy. I have been watching this assembly virtually every day this session trying to make videos and get the word out about what's happening in Tennessee. Reps. Jones and Pearson have pressed the power structure all session and it has been invigorating to witness. I'm so glad they've brought the national spotlight to the Tennessee Legislature. I hope this is actually happening and i'm not just losing my marbles. It happened so fast, ya'll. Tennessee was split evenly between parties, with a slight Democratic lean from 1992-2008 (Ballotpedia). Our state senate held 17 Republicans and 16 Democrats coming into the 2008 election. After the 2012 election it was 26 R/ 7 D. IN 4 YEARS they stole the senate. The state House was 50 R/ 49 D going into the 2010 midterms -- after 2012 it was 71 R/ 27 D. The House only took them TWO YEARS to overtake -- ONE ELECTION CYCLE. The ratio in both chambers has only worsened under the supermajority. I first voted in the 2006 midterm election when i was 18. Ive never had representation in this state legislature or in the United States Congress.
This has nothing to do with party. This had to do with HOUSE RULES for members. But the rules only apply to the conservatives not the liberals. Especially not black liberals. That’s racism at its worst.

Keep drinking that Fox news koolaide. You're twisting it into something that makes sense in your fantasy land. The reality is, the republicans broke the freedom of speech and right to assembly. This whole situation was about silencing politicians who can hurt the republican bribes from the NRA.
Kinda pointless though these days. If the US government became tyrannical and really wanted to take you out, it would just be a simple push of a button in DC.
They have hints on what it says. It talks about how the shooter idolized past mass shooters and wanted to take revenge against a Christian school who harmed them.
@@flightkimulator9612 yeah I was looking into it and enforcement was saying it was mostly journal "rants" but that this was also planned for months. Articles that have quoted people from that group also said they don't want it published because it could create idolizers and that they fear that it would create more hate towards their group but here's the thing about that. That community has actually been more violent than those who do not align with their beliefs so why are they being protected? Every other killer who has left a manifesto has had it released within days to help understand what drives a person to do what they did but this case.... They're hiding something.
@@mattl2843 Anti-christian sentiment is very high in the USA (for good reasons), but I don't think killing random Christians is right. I think they're probably trying to prevent that level or copycatting because the violence that pours out afterwards would be insane.
@@mattl2843 Also respectfully disagree that the community has been more violent. The rates of violence for trans people are significantly lower than other groups.
@@flightkimulator9612 I do actually agree why there is "anti Christian rhetoric" and like you said, for good reasons. I think a person should live the life they want to live without having a group try to instill their beliefs on to other people. Let it come and let it be. You're right about the backlash it would cause as well but on the same token, not knowing allows people's minds to fester and concoct their own prejudices which in itself is dangerous as well. As for the violence between groups however, I've only seen a certain group physically attack others out of protests. Sure there are some from that community that have been targets to actual physical abuse, but almost every protest I've witnessed, whether it be pro trans or pro Christian, it's always been the pro trans groups that have been more confrontational as far as being more hands on with their approach. Either way, it's not the answer on both spectrums because like I said, we all may not agree with the lifestyles we've chosen to live, but it shouldn't be thrown in our faces from the opposition. Just because I don't align with your beliefs, it doesn't make me a bigot or transphobic and I don't believe transphobic is even the right adjective because I don't think anybody really has a fear of it, but the minute I try to force my beliefs on to somebody else's life choices and ridicule them, then yes I become a bigot and unfortunately, that community is doing just that. They're trying to force their beliefs on to people and I ain't for it. They do should however have every single right everybody else does, I just think the issue is that that community is trying to force their lifestyle's on to children who haven't gone through their natural rhythms to understanding what and who they are. That community would be livid if Christians started having preachers in schools reading to children so why is it okay for them to do it? It's okay to be naturally who you are, just don't go out of your way to force your beliefs on to others and let everybody live in peace 🤷♂️

@@kyletaylor4489 Actually there was a mob trying to force their way in (Video on the news), but unlike Nancy on Jan 6th, when the officials heard about a mob being organized a day ahead of time, TN made sure they had enough security to stop them from getting in.

And even so, no one said you had to have a mob to insurrection, by the definition you guys like to play with, just the 3 on the floor met all the elements of the crime.
It actually did backfire on republicans. They voted them out to silence voices that were fighting for change against their NRA donors, and it put a spotlight on the situation on a national level and even a global level.

Using a bullhorn to drown out someone else's voice, especially given you're letting in rioters/protesters in the process of doing that, violates the rules and laws of procedure for speaking, voting, and debating in the chamber of the Legislature. When you are in a Legislative Body's meeting chamber, you have to abide by the rules, and that includes not shouting down other representatives with his bullhorn.

The reality is, the republicans broke the freedom of speech and right to assembly. This whole situation was about silencing politicians who can hurt the republican bribes from the NRA.
He has turned himself into the next Al Sharpton. A less rich version of Sharpton, at least for now.
Yea cuz he expelled himself for views gotcha Christ you 12?

Still waiting on that manifesto.....
They have hints on what it says. It talks about how the shooter idolized past mass shooters and wanted to take revenge against a Christian school who harmed them.
@@flightkimulator9612 yeah I was looking into it and enforcement was saying it was mostly journal "rants" but that this was also planned for months. Articles that have quoted people from that group also said they don't want it published because it could create idolizers and that they fear that it would create more hate towards their group but here's the thing about that. That community has actually been more violent than those who do not align with their beliefs so why are they being protected? Every other killer who has left a manifesto has had it released within days to help understand what drives a person to do what they did but this case.... They're hiding something.
@@mattl2843 Anti-christian sentiment is very high in the USA (for good reasons), but I don't think killing random Christians is right. I think they're probably trying to prevent that level or copycatting because the violence that pours out afterwards would be insane.
@@mattl2843 Also respectfully disagree that the community has been more violent. The rates of violence for trans people are significantly lower than other groups.
@@flightkimulator9612 I do actually agree why there is "anti Christian rhetoric" and like you said, for good reasons. I think a person should live the life they want to live without having a group try to instill their beliefs on to other people. Let it come and let it be. You're right about the backlash it would cause as well but on the same token, not knowing allows people's minds to fester and concoct their own prejudices which in itself is dangerous as well. As for the violence between groups however, I've only seen a certain group physically attack others out of protests. Sure there are some from that community that have been targets to actual physical abuse, but almost every protest I've witnessed, whether it be pro trans or pro Christian, it's always been the pro trans groups that have been more confrontational as far as being more hands on with their approach. Either way, it's not the answer on both spectrums because like I said, we all may not agree with the lifestyles we've chosen to live, but it shouldn't be thrown in our faces from the opposition. Just because I don't align with your beliefs, it doesn't make me a bigot or transphobic and I don't believe transphobic is even the right adjective because I don't think anybody really has a fear of it, but the minute I try to force my beliefs on to somebody else's life choices and ridicule them, then yes I become a bigot and unfortunately, that community is doing just that. They're trying to force their beliefs on to people and I ain't for it. They do should however have every single right everybody else does, I just think the issue is that that community is trying to force their lifestyle's on to children who haven't gone through their natural rhythms to understanding what and who they are. That community would be livid if Christians started having preachers in schools reading to children so why is it okay for them to do it? It's okay to be naturally who you are, just don't go out of your way to force your beliefs on to others and let everybody live in peace 🤷♂️

Sorry that you have to put up with these fascist clowns. This is abhorrent.
@Bo Didley Sure. I suppose they should be standing up for guns. You know, when I was very young, my granny took me for milkshakes at a segregated counter. That very counter sits in a civil rights museum today - WHERE IT BELONGS, in a museum along with all this toxic racism.

guess insurrection only goes one way in America, this proves nothing happened on jan6
They didn’t break windows or beat cops with flag poles the lawmaker protested on the house floor and he sure didn’t send a mob in to hang elected officials
@@kyletaylor4489 yeah they did, they where breaking car windows outside there's video of it, oh wait you just ignore stuff that doesn't fit your narrative. so what you're saying is you're a racist and only black people can break windows?
@@kyletaylor4489 Actually there was a mob trying to force their way in (Video on the news), but unlike Nancy on Jan 6th, when the officials heard about a mob being organized a day ahead of time, TN made sure they had enough security to stop them from getting in. Unlike Nancy who instead made sure there was NOT enough or properly equipped security. There were injuries and arrests.
And even so, no one said you had to have a mob to insurrection, by the definition you guys like to play with, just the 3 on the floor met all the elements of the crime.

Not sure if Vice knows what "backfire" means.
@Ben Not sure what genius comment you tried to make there. but clearly YOU don't know what gamer means.
It actually did backfire on republicans. They voted them out to silence voices that were fighting for change against their NRA donors, and it put a spotlight on the situation on a national level and even a global level. So they tried to silence these democrats and only helped give them louder voices with more eyes and ears being reached. It's really not hard to understand.

Using a bullhorn to drown out someone else's voice, especially given you're letting in rioters/protesters in the process of doing that, violates the rules and laws of procedure for speaking, voting, and debating in the chamber of the Legislature. When you are in a Legislative Body's meeting chamber, you have to abide by the rules, and that includes not shouting down other representatives with his bullhorn.
