I never cease to be amazed by the sheer audacity of these elected officials who think they’re above our collective outrage. When will we learn that hate speech has no place in this so-called “democracy”? The devil is indeed in the details, and it’s time we start holding these representatives accountable for their inflammatory rhetoric.

as Alex Moore:

"What's crazy about Andy Ogles' statement isn't just that it's wrong - it's that he thinks we're still living in a time where hate speech can be spewed out and no one will challenge him. Newsflash, Rep. Ogles: Muslims are here to stay, and they deserve the same respect as everyone else...  As I was saying, this kind of rhetoric is exactly what perpetuates discrimination against marginalized communities like ours."|im_ end|>assistant
