2. I wish she would have added gangs to the list of terrorists in America |
|
There is so much violence that we need to address that it is astonishing that this hearing is actually being held.

4. And those gangs are perpetuated and strengthened in the |
|
prison system. This nation is purposefully segregated and divided on so many levels, "hearings" are useless.

11. Technically, if you are attacking the character of the messenger... |

13. She may be personally very difficult, but I am so grateful |
|
that she had the courage to say the obvious. King's hearings are way beyond the pale. He is just trying to harm the reputations of people because of their heritage and religious beliefs. Shame on him.
Many of the earliest Europeans in our country were Puritans who left their homes to settle here because they wanted to escape religious persecution.
We have a tradition of religious tolerance.
Ms. Lee is correct. It would be appropriate to investigate the broader issue of terrorism, but to focus solely on a minority religious sect is wrong and probably violates the spirit if not the letter of our Constitution.

7. "Time's up! Time's up! Stop making sense! Stop making sense! Shut up! Shut up!" |
|
"Are you now or have you ever been a Muslim?"
I really can't believe this fucking bullshit is happening again.
