I was going to say that this was the worst campaign ad of 2017:
But then I saw this headline:
Congressman apologizes for recording video in Auschwitz gas chamber
In his defense, at least the video was anti-Holocaust. These days, it wouldn't surprise me either way especially from a Louisiana Republican.
Yes. Yes, it can be quite shocking how inhumane humans can be towards each other. Case in point:
"A great sense of dread comes over you in this place," Higgins, a former law enforcement officer who serves on the House Homeland Security Committee, says in the video. "Man's inhumanity to man can be quite shocking."
'Kill them all,' Rep. Clay Higgins says of suspected Islamic extremists
Yes, it's the same fucking guy!
The free world... all of Christendom... is at war with Islamic horror. Not one penny of American treasure should be granted to any nation who harbors these heathen animals. Not a single radicalized Islamic suspect should be granted any measure of quarter. Their intended entry to the American homeland should be summarily denied. Every conceivable measure should be engaged to hunt them down. Hunt them, identify them, and kill them. Kill them all. For the sake of all that is good and righteous. Kill them all.
-Captain Clay Higgins
I watched the Peter Aman ad -- I didn't think it was so bad? At least it showed a self-deprecating sense of humour! But the rest of your post about Clay Higgins, the "kill 'em all" guy -- my gawd. I notice he didn't say kill them all after a trial either.
ReplyDeleteCan we lock Clay Higgins in a room and hook him up to a VR scenario set during one of the Crusades? He'd probably be much happier and do much less harm than he does in real life.
