Do we have a video of the stalking? Was she one of those periscopers?

Why is she a SJW??
She's just someone who's been trying to contact her congressman (this guy in the article) but has gotten no reply. She has a daughter with preexisting conditions and want's to know what's going to happen with the repeal and replace health care that this guy voted for. He's apparently ignoring all town hall and meeting requests from those who voted for him.Text Red
I doubt this will be the last time you hear of something like this and they aren't SJW's. They are concerned parents and family members who have someone they care about that might be left die because some f*cking selfish pricks in DC voted to give rich people tax breaks instead of taking care of peoples lives.
You think when people are left without any healthcare and people start dying off that they're just going to sit back and say "Oh well." Not likely.
Law enforcement later tracked down Wright because she posted a detailed Facebook account of the incident.

I agree. The ruling classes just ignore us, which ever side of the fence we are on. They lie and we accept it. They succumb to corporate greed and we accept it. They kill in our name and we accept it. The pass law after law that benefits none but the wealthy and we accept it. I fear a breaking point is being reached.

If family members start dying, especially children and elderly because they no longer have health insurance because of this new change to Trumpcare, you can bet you're ass people will start flipping out.
Nothing like that is really happening just yet. Just a whole lot of worried people waiting to see what exactly happens next. But while they wait and worry and continue to be ignored by those who voted for this the anger and resentment will just build and it will take very little to set that whole thing off.
Especially if it's peoples children. You have too many parents who lose their kids over something like this and they don't give a damn about reason or laws, they'll be out for blood in a very personal way.

I'm ok with demanding answers to tough questions, but attacking a representative after chasing them down is a crime.
Everyone has a right to pursue health care. The Constitution does not indicate that the government needs to manage or fund healthcare for US citizens.
I'm sure lots of people now feel like government healthcare is a right. A right that's paid for by me, but not used by me because I get mine through my own payments and through the benefits of my company. The US government is not an insurance agency. This lady needs to get off her social justice high horse and get better tactics. As soon as she pays her fine and pleads to her misdemeanor.

Whatever.
That's pretty much a different conversation so I'm not sure what to say. I'm neither in agreement or disagreement with what you're saying nor is this a conversation about me personally.
I never said the government would be any better or worse or anything along those lines.
