  1. Good, get that bag! Fuck the capitalist fascist douches that desperately want existence to be a pyramid scheme of power consolidation.

  2. ***From Rolling Stone’s Tim Dickinson:***

    When Teresa Borrenpohl was dragged out of an Idaho town hall in February over her aggressive questioning of Republican officials — by dark-clad men who refused to identify themselves — it seemed like a scene ripped from The Handmaid’s Tale, replete with a man on stage mocking her: “She spoke up, and now she doesn’t want to suffer the consequences.”

  4. It’s honestly sickening how they treated this woman, it makes you question what kind of world we’re living in, especially when you remember that the private security firm involved was stripped of its license because they posed an immediate danger to the public, which is just… wow.

  6. I’d say that’s a bit too much but at the same time I hope the idiots who did this lose as much money as possible.

  8. If I was on the jury, she’d get more than that. Much more.

  9. Good. All they care about is money and the only way to enact big changes is to hit them financially. Sue these fascists penniless. 

  10. Amounts sued for mean essentially nothing but good to see she’s going for them. 

  13. Oh please, you know that even if a court awards you with this compensation for damage.. no true Trumpist is going to pay up.

    They never do, and thanks to the american “legal” system they don’t have to.

  14. Not sure if it shows where I’m at in my life or where society is but sometimes I wish some security personnel would violate my freedom so I could get a big bag.

  16. I think I’m going to finally have a reason to go to some Republican ‘rallies’.

  17. Sadly missing from the men charged is the douchebag Sheriff on disability from California.

    His shoulder sure seems fine.

  19. I’d want $5 million and that elected SOB sheriff Bob Norris out of his position for standing by and letting those people illegally arrest and detain a private citizen.

  20. Yep, Trump will be historical bc of all the lawsuits we tax payers will have to pay bc the republicans do not care. You people want to take down our civil liberties our rights under the constitution then there goes your right to bear arms, and all other rights our great nation allows us, our freedoms. Red Party Traitors. Nazis, Shame on you! Shame!

  21. Should add a zero to that lawsuit. This was gross violation of so many norms and laws, those responsible (including the city) need to be punished so harshly that its a warning to NOT let this happen again – anywhere.

  22. Good for her. It’s really sad it literally took until this week for the DA to charge these guys too.

  24. Every asshole who helped drag her out should be sued as well.

  26. Gonna go yell stuff at a democrat town hall and get a bag when I’m thrown out lol

  27. Look at the photo and how brave she is.

    She deserves far more than $5 million.
