250 years of "freedom" doesn't apply equally and is bullshit marketing from our government :3
- Slavery ended only 161 years ago (1865)
- Black men got the constitutional right to vote 156 years ago (1870)
- Women (excluding black women) got the right to vote 106 years ago (1920)
- Native Americans gained citizenship & voting eligibility ~102 years ago (1924), with many barriers lasting longer
- Black Americans (incl. Black women) only gained real protection for the vote with the 1965 Voting Rights Act — 61 years ago
Not even a full lifetime ago for many of us.
Let me be VERY clear for those of you in the back. If bringing down the largest child sex trafficking ring in our known history will "collapse the government as we know it," then the government as we know it needs to collapse.

Texas Attorney General, and now Republican nominee for the Texas Senate Ken Paxton gave his friend 28 days in jail after he repeatedly raped a young boy.
He does not have to register as a sex offender.
He didn’t even lose his license to practice law.
