I certainly don't agree with Fetterman on everything, and I was one that pegged him as a hard left liberal and I was apparently wrong about that. He stands up to the progressives and stands his ground on certain issues. I give him kudos for that. Fetterman

I think he is a more right democrat than most. But I also think he's an independent thinker and not always a toe the line party guy. (Unlike Guy Reschenthaler who is bought and paid for)

He is probably one of the more sensible politicians in DC right now. And he seems to be honest-which is even rarer.

Fetterman is a good dude. I never gave money to a campaign before but I came close for Fetterman. Had never even occurred to me before him

He is a democrat, no doubt, but not a far left as many pegged him as. He is very liberal when it comes to non violent crime, which still has victims. He gets a bad rap based on his looks and certain positons on crime and drugs.

Doesn't matter skin color.....criminal. But as I understand it, he may have brushed up against performing an illegal activity.......I thought I read where only LE is legally allowed to pursue criminals. I could be wrong on this....but there was something I read about that.

His fault in that respect, is that he believes he can be "The Great Rehabilitator" of inner-city street thugs. What he has to come to grips with, is that these thugs choose not to go straight, no matter how many chances you give them. It's in their culture, it's in their generational perpetuity, it's in their genes.

Musta been THE SLOWEST BLACK GUY OF ALL TIME.... EVER.... INFINITY X 2 ! He was in a pickup truck. Large bald headed guy with tattoos and a loaded shotgun, driving a pickup truck, chasing a black man that was jogging down the street. Imagine the same scenario by a southern republican or any republican.

Should still be assault with a deadly weapon and should have had some jail time. So if I did that would I get off without going to jail? Maybe if I plead guilty I might get off without a felony for the same scenario.

Great. Now Stroupy thinks one of the few reasonable Democrats should be in jail.

I actually watched an actual clip of a Church service on CNN. The preacher was saying that Democrats are demons and if there's any in his Church he wants them to leave. This is what we're becoming on both sides
