#Tennessee doesn’t expel #GloriaJohnson. They did expel #JustinJones. Let’s see if they expel #JustinPearson, but first reaction, Johnson is WHITE. Jones is not. Pretty obvious why the outcomes were different. They did the SAME THING. Period. #WhiteSupremacy #democracy #GunSense #GunViolence #GunViolenceEpidemic #FirstAmendment #GunControl #TN #Authoritarianism #gerrymandering #MinorityMajority #MinorityRule #Tyranny
