Yeah, keep spreading the myth that you’re under attack, and that your very survival is at stake. Certainly no unhinged people would ever overreact to that message, and respond with violence.

Yup, he’s on the list of groups
Good God they are all insane.
What a sad and stupid old man … your bigotry is showing, congressman. You must be more careful.
Anddd…the stupid old blowhard is already walking it back.
Except with his constituents, who all agree with him.
Wow! This guy is truly clueless. What he said was so stupid I can not even come up with something snarky enough to give him credit for how stupid he is.
“That may be an overstatement, but not by a whole lot,” he added.
Wait for it:
My comments were obviously not meant literally
Is he that stupid or is this just a strategy to attract stupid voters?
Is there anything more white than calling oneself an ‘ethnic’? Is he also a little bit country and a little bit rock n’ roll?

The genesis of this concept comes from people who want a future for this planet.
However Ms. Riga - as much as you and many others (hey Woker-Than-Thou Slate staff!) may dislike it, white is as much of an ethnicity as black or anything else. They (whites) are simply not a downtrodden minority who has dealt with centuries of abuse and social inequality, except when they turn on each other for religious wars and inquisitions of course.
Genocide is not doing anything about climate change, Rep. Rob Bishop (R-DUMBASS).
He looks like someone who has a day job under a revival tent driving out demons, gesticulating with rattlesnakes, and depriving the plain folk of their cash.
Ah, the tired, old victimhood canard yet again. Pathetic.
I’m an ethnic,” Bishop, who is white, said. “I’m a westerner.
I didn’t realize a Compass Point had an ethnicity.
Yep, he is right. It will kill off an ethnic group. The Do nothing, everything is fine, Got Mine! ethnic group.
They’re updating that question to a two-parter: Are you ethnic yes/no, and if yes, black/hispanic/asian?
Are we sure that isn’t actually Trump in a (strangely bright) white wig?
Dude needs to read himself some Wendell Berry. Agriculture–independent ranching as well as farming–has been collapsing under the bloated weight of industrialized food production and the complicity of the government for the past 50 and more years . . . AND contributing to climate change. The depopulation of rural areas is already destroying, slow-motion style, the very life Bishop claims to be speaking in defense of.
Though it doesn’t spell out specific policies, the Green New Deal urges that how we produce food must change by shifting to smaller-scale farming and ranching that’s not so dependent on monoculture. Such moves would not only reduce carbon emissions, it just might also slow down, and maybe even reverse, the loss of population from rural areas (smaller farms and ranches actually would require more workers . . . and more businesses in farm/ranch towns to provide goods and services to those people.
(tl;dr: Sometimes, the most ignorant people regarding the plight of farming and ranching in this country are those very farmers and ranchers, who lack the imagination to do things differently.)
