Missouri GOP Exec Calls Ferguson Voter Registration Efforts ‘Disgusting’
In the din of noise about the Ferguson Mo. tragedy, it is hard to be heard. But today, at least two comments deserve our attention for their offensiveness.
Missouri Republican Party Executive Director Matt Wills denounced voter registration efforts amid continued protests in Ferguson, calling it “disgusting.”
Second, from a pro-police op-ed by Sunil Dutta:
…if you don’t want to get shot, tased, pepper-sprayed, struck with a baton or thrown to the ground, just do what I tell you. Don’t argue with me, don’t call me names, don’t tell me that I can’t stop you, don’t say I’m a racist pig, don’t threaten that you’ll sue me and take away my badge. Don’t scream at me that you pay my salary, and don’t even think of aggressively walking towards me.
Apparently all of these actions are justifications for being shot by the police. Both of these comments are deeply appalling in a democratic society.

bundy’s bitches point loaded assault weapons and no charges filed.

The Authorities in Saint Louis have totally lost it. The only thing that will stop this escalation is the indictment and arrest of Darren Wilson. If they don’t do it soon I hope they go bankrupt. This can’t be cheap.

They’ll ask for Gubment welfare while they claim all the residents of Ferguson are asking for Gubment welfare.

Proving once again that democracy is only for white and well to do.

Republicants always “denouce voter registration.” It’s simply not in their best interest.

The good police should machine gun those feral ni99ers down. Too bad flamethrowers aren’t standard issue. Kill the entire species.
Mister_YT August 20th, 2014 at 06:27
Most ni99ers can’t read because they’re too stupid.

Matt: Shooting an unarmed black man six times is cool, but voter registration drives are “disgusting?” Bitch of a world you live in, Matt. Afraid of black men and democracy.
Sunil: You can certainly tell that you were a member of the LAPD. The good news is that with your teaching gig (Authoritarianism 101, isn’t it?) you aren’t on the frickin’ streets protectin’ us to death. Kinda like Officer Go F*ck Yourself from Missouri.

Didn’t the GOP use “FOUR DEAD IN BENGHAZI” to fund-raise?
