A right-wing Tennessee school board member backed by the Moms for Liberty group has been arrested on shoplifting charges.Keri Blair, who was elected in November 2022 following a campaign against tolerant “social agendas,” is accused of stealing items from Target seven times between Nov. 25 and Dec. …
She’s part of the retail theft crime wave Republicans have been warning us about! Lock her up forever!

Turns out that too was projection.
How long until a “protect the kids from groomers” member of Moms For Liberty is busted for grooming kids?
As I posted it, I wondered if I had missed it happening. There’s so much that it’s easy for one to slip by.
To steal a line from Trump: They aren’t sending their best!
… they’re rapists
The timing is beautiful, this Some More News Episode just dropped covering this very topic.
Roflmao! 🤣

Beginning?
Always has been
There are two kinds of groups that push changes to society based on morality. Those who want to provide more freedom and rights to people who are at an unfair disadvantage under the system and those who want to impose restrictions and penalties on people who do things they don’t like. The latter groups are almost never sincere. The actions they oppose are just an excuse for making people they don’t like suffer. As a result, they are often caught do the exact things they say they oppose, because they don’t really care about the actions themselves.
Oh my, I just assumed it was the same lady that was having (and filming) threesomes while taking away rights from LGBT kids. Different lady! What else are Moms for Lib up to?
I think that just indicates that they really do believe in diversity. They’re finding all kinds of different ways to violate what they claim are their principles.
Probably a lot
Moms for Liberty isn’t a real grassroots organization anyways, which might explain all the scandals from it’s hypocritical members. They’re being funded by the Heritage Foundation and others to push an anti-LGBTQ agenda. They had early success when no one was paying attention to them, but they largely got wrecked in the last elections and this year they’ll do even worse. After that the funding will dry up and they’ll be completely forgotten, but in a few years another group with a similar name will pop up being funded by the same ghouls.
Making exactly the same arguments, caricatures, and epithets.
another group with a similar name
Females for Freedom? Bitches for Bombast?
It’s more like the “my abortion is the only moral abortion” argument. They convince themselves that it’s the people and not the action that are the bad thing, so if they, a good person, does it, it’s not really wrong. But if the bad people do it, then it’s bad.
Sheltered suburb bitches are crazy.
It’s always the people you most suspected.
Well it’s in their name, Moms for Liberty. They be liberating items off the shelves.
The store thwy were boycotting for being woke?!? Let me guess… new Stanley tumbler color way.
That’s a face that is trying to figure out a way to lawyer out of this.
No contrition detected.
It’s a “I can’t believe you arrested me Bill, we’re on the same side.” Face.
Doesn’t she know that Target is the worst place to shoplift? Getting caught is inevitable there.
That’s what I was thinking. They will literally build a case against the shoplifter over multiple visits so they can get the value of goods stolen above felony requirements and then take action. They want jail time.
Yeah, says she did it on 7 different occasions. So Target was tracking her the whole time. Either that or they caught her once and went back and reviewed her previous check outs where she didn’t scan items. Either way: ROFL get fucked, lady.
Police say Blair stole nearly $730 worth of merchandise by “skip-scanning” items at the store’s self checkout.
They have little screens above the register that show you plainly that they’re recording your face. Bet she paid for the items she didn’t steal with a method of payment that could be easily traced back to her.
It’s strange because the right-wing “stop woke” book-burning don’t-say-gay school board crowd are really known for being super fucking intelligent.
This is one of the spots where I wonder if the whole “If you see someone shoplifting, no you didn’t.” thing breaks down a bit.
“If you see someone shoplifting FOOD, no you didn’t”
You missed a word.
Food, diapers, etc. If they’re shoplifting a luxury lipstick or whatever while getting in their brand new SUV, that’s different…
Yeah, not gonna snitch on someone trying to survive.
And if they’d try to shoplift a big-ass plasma TV I’d shoplift a bag of popcorn to watch that. Not exactly food, but I don’t think someone would judge me harsh for that.
Popcorn is definitely food.
It might be easier to hide the TV than the popcorn.
I’d take another popcorn to just watch this guy at work. He’s sooo smoooth. The only his problem is that he always faces the camera to navigate his moves. Ideal for him is to face another direction at each walk.
The rest of your reply chain, and seeing past iterations of such conversations, is exactly why I didn’t specify. You’ll find some versions of this conversation can go pretty far down the path of “you don’t know other people’s struggles” and “poor women deserve to feel like they look nice sometimes”.
look what the immigants are doing to our upstanding americans.
Someone build a wall around Tennessee before they cross the border!
