Ok, but this has literally 0 to do with what I responded to .

What I responded to was the false and incorrect notion that the state assembly has no right or say in what a county does, which is clearly wrong. That is all I was pointing out.

Where did I say what the assembly was doing was right or the best thing? I was simply saying it is a thing they are entitled to do as they have that power.

The assembly has the power to impeach krasner, is simply my point, and I'm being down voted to hell becuase our school system never taught people how state power actually works lol

Again, it's factually wrong to assert: the state assembly has no business interfering with county politcs. No, thats wrong as fuck, the county's powers literally could be taken away in a heart beat by the assembly becuaae the surpreme law of PA, the PA constitution, grants them supremacy and power over the county.

Sorry for trying to explain how state politics work, but I'll take the downvotes so people can remain ignorant on how our state operates.

And the PA constitution says the PA assembly has ALLL the business doing that because they have the power to do so. It's factually wrong.

By using the word disenfranchised it's implied the PA state is violating the people of Philadelphia. No, it's not doing that, it's invoking the will of Pennsylvanians via the state constitution.

Again, imagine saying impeaching trump disenfranchised voters lol

Lol yes down vote me for explaining how state constitutions work. Let's continue to be ignorant on those things becuaae we hate Republicans, good grief.

It can definitely be argued to be disenfranchisement when there is no impeachable offense.

No, impeachment is literally a political tool. Why the hell do you think its requirements are so broad and not well defined?

Again, balance of powers lesson incoming, congress /assembly can impeach someone for anything, as the purpose of impeachment was for the voters to Have a check on a run away executive. If congress/assembly improperly impeaches someone's, the public can easily vote him back in and then vote the congress/assembly out.

This is all basic social studies stuff.

Plenty of legal tools have been and are used for the disenfranchisement of people.

If the assembly is using a power granted to it, which comes from the PA constitution, which ultimately comes from every PA citizen, how the fuck is it stealing your rights if you gave it the power to do what it is doing?

You really should read on how politics actually works on our system if you're interested in understanding the political process lol

Lol it's like arguing with a brick wall.

I'm explaining that the congress had the power to impeach Nixon because every US citizen gives it that power via the constitution. That's why it wasn't "disenfranchisment".

Similarly, the assembly has the right to impeach any county official because every PA resident gives the assembly the power to do so via the PA constitution.

Please read about political powers and learn where our rights come from.

An impeachable offense is literally any offense the assembly determines, which is what you don't understand.

Impeachment is a POLITCAL TOOL. Therefore, if everyone in PA asked the assembly to impeach a county official because he's a cowgirls fan, that's literally allowed lol

Again, you don't understand politcs nor where powers come from. They come from the people, and the people determine what is impeachable, by voting for assemblyman/women that agree on what is impeachable.

It's why in PA constitution all is needed to be impeached is "misbehaving" which the assembly, via the voters, can determine drinking coke instead of Pepsi is impeachable. It's why all impeachment does is remove you from office not send you to jail, it's PURELY POLITCAL, and any action can be found to be politcal in nature for voters to say yea impeach him.

Whatever have a good day, it's clear you have no interest in understanding state law or how politcal powers operate in our liberal democracy lol

Lol I'm a barred attorney, don't worry, I think I understand how constitutional law works.

You think an assembly using power given to it by voters is disenfranchising voters.

I can tell you're probably not even from this city, probably some yuppie transplants or out in the burbs. Krasner making the city more dangerous than when I was running on the streets in the 90s is like the defitnion of "misbehaving" but hey just a few more dead minorities probably doesnt bother you lol

Have a good one man, keep fighting the good fight of being righteously indignant.
