The real conservative objection to VA redistricting is pure Wilhoit: you have to obey laws & proper procedure & we don't. They can't just out and say that in public though, at least not yet, so they are desperately flailing about for some kind of cover argument.

The obvious solution is a national law that mandates fair, objective redistricting everywhere, but *conservatives do not want that*. To be subject to the same rules as everyone else -- as all the lesser people -- is inherently offensive to them. (All I ever do is restate Wilhoit.)

Just a friendly reminder to anyone who is whinging about 'how unfair' the election in Virginia was. There were off ramps, multiple in fact, to this current gerrymandering war we find ourselves in. The Right started this fight, the Left will finish it.

Before then, they have already begun killing. There will be more. They are frustrated and afraid, and when speech fails (as theirs does), ideological groups often resort to violence. We'll need law enforcement, too, but many of them are on the other side.
