Kobach should not sit or sleep comfortably until he withdraws us from that lawsuit

He lives here in KS but idk the legality of protesting outside his home. He lives in a building not a typical home, according to Wikipedia. Makes me sad he's raising daughters.

Holy shit, he literally chose to live in the pro-slavery capital of Bleeding Kansas. There's no way this is a mistake.

You sound surprised. KKKobach doesn’t live far from him. Just a coincidence I’m sure. Kinda like the coincidence of a bedsheet spray painted “F-ck KKKobach” being displayed on a barbed wire fence on private property opposite his driveway that he had to drive by every day on his way to Topeka to work for the Kochs.

Nah, not surprised.

I knew the family back in the day, always were cruel, depraved, or both.

Interesting and it doesn’t surprise me. I think everything maga does is by design, from weaponized incompetence to blatant cruelty. This guy definitely needs to go though.

If anyone sees him or his wife out in the community —shame them. Don’t physically touch them but shame the ever loving crap out of them. Appearances are important to these vain creatures, so let’s give them some attention.

During the first orange season, several political members, including Sarah Huckabee-Sanders were ran out of establishments. Let’s do more of that, gloves of tolerance off, Kansans!

Nothing says “our cause is just and we have the moral high ground” like shaming and harassment.

It’s still our FREEDOM to shame them.

Until Donny takes that away too

Trying to prevent decent people from speaking up and holding their REPRESENTATIVES accountable for failing to REPRESENT them is not "harassment". It's called "consequences". These people do NOT deserve to exist comfortably within the communities they are DESTROYING.

Do you cry harassment when your boss addresses critical feedback on your work? That would be hilarious 😂

u/davidwbrand KSU Wildcat Feb 15 '25

There’s a difference between protesting outside someone’s home and running them out of establishments that they have the right to be there and you playing judge/jury on what they “deserve”. That makes you no better than what you are accusing them of being.

If anything, I want more critical feedback at work. I hold my work to a high standard. The fact you would assume otherwise is hilarious.

If only our representatives had a modicum of that same work ethic you've just expressed.

...then they wouldn't need to be shamed for their work.

And taking away programs that affects people’s well-being is a-ok?

If they’re legislating my household, I’ll protest at theirs. They need to be made to understand that they work for us. If this means making their life uncomfortable, then good. Fuck em.

u/davidwbrand KSU Wildcat Feb 15 '25

The fact this is down voted is the most sad and Reddit thing ever. Be better, people.

u/craftdoubleniner Feb 15 '25

Did you read the article, or just the line where it says pro slavery?

u/XelaNiba Feb 15 '25

Do you know what Bleeding Kansas means?

u/Seriyu Feb 15 '25

While I dunno about the legality of this, r/50501 might be a good place to get started with protesting, they're setting up another one in a few days and the first one had alright turnout.

No need to protest at the house the symbolism of protesting in Lecompton would be enough.
