Most tragically, Steve King would really like to tear the Statue of Liberty down.

How this jackass can call himself an American with a straight face is beyond imagining.

Steve King may be pushing his luck, people in western Iowa may be as racist as any Alabama redneck, but they don’t like to appear to be proud about it.

Steve King Says ‘Diversity Is Not Our Strength’

He may be right it all depends on who exactly his is referring with “our”. If he means his electoral district or the white nationalist movement as a whole, then yes diversity is bad, bad bad.

Gee. I think I heard all this before somewhere.

Unfortunately it was a grainy black and white film and everybody spoke GERMAN and wore funny outfits and jackboots.
Especially that little guy with the funny mustache who is constantly waving his arms and shouting

Most of the mid-1880’s settlers in Northern Iowa and Southern Minnesota were Germans fleeing Kaiser Wilhelm’s draft and militant religious persecution.
Most were Lutheran and Methodist and a few other fringe denominations (Albrecht Churches and the like.)
Many of the Irish and German Catholics ended up settling in and around Saint Paul, MN and other Catholic strongholds in the upper mid-west.

In September 2016, he called the Congressional Black Caucus, the “self-segregating caucus” and in August this year he defended embattled former sherif Joe Arpaio, who the President pardoned for racially profiling Latinos in his county:

“I don’t agree that profiling is wrong. … In fact, if you would take profiling away from the tools of law enforcement, you couldn’t describe a criminal in any way whatsoever.”

Let’s see this guy doesn’t like self segregation if it involves somebody with a different skin tone, but loves racial profiling if it is whites vs people of color.

This guy is a stone cold racist. Does he have the sheet and hood concession in Iowa?

Oh no, totally. I was just running with ncsteves joke to get another boot in, because you can never have too many boots when stomping on the likes of King.

Run for office- the 2018 elections are less than a year away! And if Trump and Louie Gohmert can get elected what’s to stop a qualified candidate?

Become a Precinct Committee Officer, sometimes it’s a Ward officer. You’ll meet with neighborhood Dems and get out the vote. Find good citizens willing to run for office.

Register people to vote. If you need to help people overcome the GOP-led Voter run-around help them do that.

Run for School Board. Make sure Civics is being properly taught. Think a majority of America knows how government works? Just 26% of eligible voters in America voted for Trump and half of eligible voters stayed home last November. Today’s 12-year olds will be voting for President in 8 years.

Run for Mayor, City Council, County Commissioner, Borough Assembly.

Get appointed to your Planning Commission. Know everything going on in your community.

Run for State Legislature or Congress. The next census is in 2020, just over 2 years from now, when we redraw Congressional Districts.

And get rid of GERRYMANDERING! Safe GOP seats gave us such intellectual giants as Louie Gohmert and Steve King. In most cases it’s the state Legislature that draws Congressional boundaries. Make it FAIR, OPEN and HONEST! We can do this!

Overturn Citizens United. Money is NOT speech and Corporations are NOT people- at least not until Texas executes one, and overturn any voter ID laws that are clearly an attempt to disenfranchise the poor and people of color.

You Got To Run!

And who have you determined gets to stay, Steve, so’s as we stop this culture mixing? British, Germans, French, Chinese, Japanese, Australians, Greeks, Scandinavians, Brazilians? All different cultures, ya know. How about all white western Europeans get to stay, but gotta prove purity? How about nobody stays whose ancestors immigrated (voluntarily or involuntarily) to north America after 1492 or maybe 1607? Can’t be too careful. Dickhead.

Ah, good. The whole idea of a serious curb-stomping is that the victim spends a couple months in the hospital. Lets him know you really meant it.
