It's kinda like MTG resigning and turning against Trump. Sure, I'm glad we finally see eye to eye on something, but it's kinda hard to feel sorry for them when they helped create the very thing they're only just realizing is a problem.

It's the same play every time with these guys, just like "The only moral abortion is my abortion". These people fail miserably at putting themselves into the situation of others; that's the reason why people like him shouldn't hold power over others.

Rome will make sure that doesn't happen. They love privacy for those they rule, but not for the common plebs.

Poor guy. If only he had learned to read maybe he wouldn't be in this situation.

The world would be a better place if he'd been "Kirked" many decades ago

Don't advocate for violence. People should be allowed to have political beliefs without being murdered

I disagree with you

Then you are wrong
Liberal democracies are build to give everyone a voice. While they very much not perfect our systems of justice serve to give fair punishment.

He's allowed to change his mind

Beware the continued grift. I am all for someone changing their mind but most of the time these people make moves for reasons other than altruism.
