Larry Brown, an Allen County, Indiana councilman, has apologized after he called Black Lives Matter protesters “uneducated” and bemoaned that they “breed” and vote.
“The African American community has been getting a spanking for a long time,” Curry-Campbell retorted, saying that though the protesters may not be using their anger “in the best way,” “these kids are out there for a reason. They are angry.”
“At what?” Fries asked incredulously.
“At what?” Um, what? Now I guess I know who Trump went into the bunker with. Must be totally soundproof and unable to access any media.
Hey, just say “all lives matter”, guys. We know you want to.
Councilman Brown hasn’t answered the question if all these protesters are breeding why is he against abortion? If constituents are contacting him then they’re not uninformed since they found his name and email address.
ETA: Why is a city council meeting not the place to discuss what’s going on in the county?
Councilman Ken Fries, also the former county sheriff, interjected with a comparison of the protesters to his children, saying that when his children break something or do something wrong, they get “a spanking.”
Larry Brown is the main antihero of this article, but, if anything, I find this asshole even more offensive. He really said this??
I just have a feeling that Councilman Fries also has said to one of his kids that were crying,“If you don’t stop crying I’ll give you something to cry about.”
This kind of discussion is going on in Republican circles all over the country. The difference is one of the participants was a Democrat, “also president of the local NAACP chapter.” Bigots sometimes forget with whom they are talking.
Racist Republicrats being racist.
Sadly, this is not really news anymore.
Just more evidence of the ignorance along with fear of others that subsumes so many in the GOP.
