It did not help the cause of diversity and tolerance with his remarks. If I were a betting man I would say that it instigated more racist sentiment feeling that it’s OK, you don’t have to bury it now you can bring it out, talk about it fully. And so I guess we’ll probably have folks putting on white hoods and white uniforms again riding through the country side intimidating people. That’s the logical conclusion if this kind of attitude is not rebuked and Congressman represents it, he’s the face of it and that’s why I support the resolution.
Rep. Hank Johnson, D-Ga, supporting the movement for a Resolution of Disapproval for Congressman Wilson’s outburst during a joint session of Congress.
So … Rep. Joe Wilson is a member of or promotes the activity of the KKK because he called President Obama a lier? If I were a betting man, I would say that Hank Johnson is a racial opportunist, and is incapable of arriving at said ‘logical conclusions’.
We need to declare a war on stupidity.
