    Posting this here because I don't think the protest/riots and Covid can be completely separate. Nonetheless, this also involves strength. At the end of this video, does that guy hulk smash that window with his hand? I looked at closer pictures and it appears to be an empty hand, possibly he had some kind of brass knuckles? Who knows, but damn, how many people did it take to smash in vehicle windows at antifa riots?

    As Michael Malice says, "the media doesn't (just) have a bias; it has an agenda." In that regard, it is functioning exactly the way it's supposed to.

    I agree. If you are not sufficiently invested in the process to get to the polls, identify yourself, and vote on the record, you should not be "allowed" to vote.

    This link doesn't show anything being smashed. Can you fix it?

    It's the third image down with "Someone ran their car through a crowd of Trump supporters. OC Sheriffs took the person into custody. Ambulances were dispatched, but I don't have information on injuries" as the title.

    You have to scroll down a bit to find the smashing in question. But after stop frame viewing it a few times, the window was broken by the guy using a hammer fist. A mostly unappreciated hand strike executed by making a tight fist and in this case striking downward with the pinky side. It's a very powerful strike, but even so, shattering a car window with it is no mean feat.

    The only exception I'd make is for deployed military. Hell I wouldn't object if they got to count as 2 votes instead of 1. Besides, some kind of ballot scheme would be a lot easier to detect and deal with at a military base.

    I have an idea! How about they vote at the base under identification, and then the base submits the ballot to their home jurisdictions, in time to be counted by the night of the election!

    I dunno, but somehow this seems more about self promotion than a tribute to Ginsburg.
