My grandmother marched for a lot of these rights. All wasted now. I'm fed up. These are human rights. We should be riotting right now.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

What is stopping you from making an event or researching how best to do this in 2024
My friend, this is part of the research.
What? I’m not following what you mean here
I have to work two jobs just to cover my rent.
A very good point for some, instead of organizing, perhaps participating one day that you have off?
This is also why it’s important for those who aren’t necessarily directly impacted by the problem being protested to still show up and to show your support. Not everybody can make it out
The Arizona legislature and Trump are going to get hammered by this. The Arizona Supreme Court is seven Republicans and zero Democrats
They sure are. This will help Biden and Gallego in November, both critical races. Unfortunately the GOP is going to hurt a lot of people with bullshit like this in the meantime.
The GOP is trying to take down as many people with them as possible, but be sure, they are going down. Republicans may have just handed Democrats Arizona for the foreseeable future.
This. This is why Biden must win in November, and Democrats must win up and down ballot. The alternative is the rapid erosion of decades of hard-fought progress on human rights.
And for the spoilers: this comment is not an endorsement of Biden. It's a denouncement of trump.
Weird you never hear the right barking about 'activist judges' when they're getting their way.
The irony being that the con judges are more activist than any other group. They somehow arrived at the conclusion that corporations are people, money is speech, women have no right to privacy, and so on...
