As I said before, Republicans are a special breed of sh’t

And this asshat, Ellzey, is a special breed of TeaShit4Brains with extra vile hatred mixed in.

For some reason I am reminded of a quote: “In the South, we don’t hide our crazy people in the attic. We bring 'em down and put 'em right in the middle of the living room.” ~ Julia Sugarbaker

He wasn’t trying to offend when he said it was our duty to offend. I have now, officially, heard everything.

Sort of like Wasilla Kardashian denouncing quitters in her resignation speech.

Well, he wasn’t trying to offend white Christians. You know, Americans.

True, but she did it in her usual rambling, nattering way, where this guy, to give him his due, managed complete and total a ≠ a absurdity in two sentences. And he took mealy-mouthed “didn’t mean to offend” backtracking to what I think must be a new record in obvious self-contradiction. I think he’s at a speed-of-light, unsurpassable point of denying you meant to to do a thing you obviously meant to do.

So, just a hollow threat made by a gunless wimp. This guy shot himself in the foot several times without even owning a gun.

As the world connects, the GOP retracts.

The 2nd Amendment is not the right to intimidate others with armed force. Abusing a right usually results in losing a right.

I wouldn’t shoot anyone with my non-existing gun but I will tell others that have one to shake it in the face of folks I disagree with…and I can’t believe those folks would take offense to that!

“He deleted it after receiving calls, saying he wasn’t trying to offend anyone,…”

Well, he wasn’t trying to offend anyone HUMAN is what he means. Muslims aren’t included in that qualifier, obviously.

Jerk.

Offending strangers for no reason beyond their heritage and their religion is not civilized by any stretch of the imagination. To be an official of a political party and utter such odious tripe makes it clear that you and your party deserve no respect whatsoever.

This is just sick and evil. On the heels of the bigot from Missouri that shot up the Jewish nursing home, too. This, Kansas, is why the country thinks of Tea Party people and GOP Cons as crazy, dangerous and fanatical.
Of course, sickeningly and sadly, most GOoPers in today’s Republican Party would wear -that- as a badge of honor.
