    Apparently, Markwayne Mullin is named after his two uncles. My guess is one of those uncles is actually his dad. I don’t know which one, and neither did his mom.

    Markwayne Mullin is a giant pussy, that’s why he never served in the military but likes to make believe that he’s a soldier

      Yup. That’s why he’s an alpha pussy.

      Once more into the breach,

      Unless you’re a teenage car jacker,

      Then I’ll run like a lil bitch.

    Whatever lie you need to tell to stick your tongue up Trump’s ass, no?

    Aaahh, those good ol’ Christian values. Lie your ass off to enrich yourself, always suck up to the crime boss, little children are free use… Oh, to be a Christian in the USA… USA! USA! USA!

    Good

    Another problem that eventually will resolve itself. Idiots like these will likely not heed other traffic safety rules like this stupid maximum speeds and such so soon enough he’ll fold himself around a tree, ironically becoming one of those tree huggers he hates so much

    So imagine that he IS car jacked. Someone presumably approaches his car and reveals a gun.

    Does he… draw a gun every time someone approaches his car.

    Draw a gun every time someone approaches his car while black

    Use spider sense to figure out who the car jacker and shoot them first like John WIck

    Have a 99% chance of being in a position wherein the thug has their gun drawn whilst he doesn’t ensuring the act of attempting to draw will result in him getting shot.

    Obviously someone could car jack you with a knife or even just a threat of physical force with their fists if they caught you outside your car but once you are in the car and buckled up I would assume short of a gun you would literally just lock the door and drive. If you are worried about being physically dragged out of your car the seatbelt would actually help.

    Also most car jackings involve the bad guys actually approaching the car. If you DID want to do “something” the something would be shooting them.

    Is he imagining jumping out with his fists of fury and chasing the fleeing thug and anticipating the belt slowing him down?

    In his defense, Sen. Markwayne Mullin is — and always has been — a gigantic coward with no respect for US law or his fellow Americans. He is genuinely scared of everything and everyone around him.

    These fucknuts work themselves into a panic over their own propaganda.

    That said, I would have much preferred that the author of the article didn’t just mindlessly regurgitate his made up statistics and instead followed up with actual statistics.

      It’s actually incredibly helpful! For the carjackers. They can just pull you out instead of having to threaten you to unbuckle and then pull you out. It skips a whole step!

      I don’t wear a seatbelt when I’m in DC and I’ve never been carjacked once…I just walk, take the metro and ride an occasional bus to get around.

        So is not wearing a seat belt a euphemism for not driving? What a weird way to say that statement.

          Not in the senator’s case. He was talking about how he drives himself, and doesn’t wear a seatbelt in his jeep in case he gets carjacked because he “doesn’t want to be slowed down.”

          Because we’re all familiar with the scourge of carjackings that became murders when people took the 5 seconds to undo their seatbelts.

          The implication is that I don’t have to worry about any of it because I just don’t drive in DC. Public transportation in DC is perfectly fine when there’s at least one functioning escalator.

            Oh damn, sorry. I thought you were quoting him rather than expanding with your own experience.

            Still not sure why the Senator in the post doesn’t wear a seat belt.

    My ex always refused to wear a seat belt in Ubers because it “helps prevent being abducted by sex traffickers”. He was a 6"3" 450lb black man. I don’t think the seat belt would have made much of a difference.

    Apparently it was some nonsense he heard on TikTok. I wouldn’t be surprised if this was the same.

    DC police need to pull him over and give him a ticket for not wearing a seatbelt.

      Probably driving around with no doors on the jeep, wearing flips flops and no seatbelt, talking about ‘I’m afraid of carjackers.’ Just stop with this nonsense MarkWayne.
