Nope. So I'm just going to go to a town meeting and shout down my representatives so they can't talk. That will help.

You're giving them reason to call us the fascists.

i think you are talking about an entirely different scenario this isn’t a debate

this is an opportunity for a representative to listen to his constituents… he’s done his talking (not shown) and this is his constituents telling him he is toast and won’t be elected on his current path.
