My thread is linked in the OP, just take a look at image of the Google News articles that were right next to each other. It would almost be a parody at this point if it wasn't real and if they weren't so hateful.

There are plenty of Democrats in Texas, and yes, those demonstrators are a profound embarrassment to us. Coming to a Democratic site and seeing posts like yours doesn't improve things. Those nasty demonstrators at the state capitol were making all of Islam the target of their hatred; you're doing the same with the entire population of Texas. "I don't think that is possible, it is Texas." Congrats on the sort of company you're keeping......

It's not that way anymore, so people like you are able to spew all the uninformed hatred you like, against certain targets.

Do me a little favor: take a look at your post, and replace "Texas" with "Israel" and "Texans" with "Jews."

I'd tell you to be ashamed of yourself, but I'm pretty sure you lack the capacity for shame. Just accept it, as does most of the world....

A friend "shared" this on FB. I didn't click through to see more. I'm assuming she's a legislator of some sort.

Today is Texas Muslim Capital Day in Austin. The House is in recess until Monday. Most Members including myself are back in District. I did leave an Israeli flag on the reception desk in my office with instructions to staff to ask representatives from the Muslim community to renounce Islamic terrorist groups and publicly announce allegiance to America and our laws. We will see how long they stay in my office.

Shoot first and ask questions later.
Protest a Muslim gathering before you even know what they're gathering about -- before you know what song they're singing -- protest the group because you are too stupid, too ignorant and too bigoted to think. Gather your like-minded simpleton friends and make fools of yourselves.
Peaceful people of a different religion don't deserve your scorn and ridicule -- scorn and ridicule are yours to own.

Perhaps they deceive themselves by spending their time listening and watching Fake News and Hate Talk, instead of reading the New Testament. I believe if ask what is the Great Commission Christ gave for after his death, out on the street, they would not know what you were talking about or would say that they are living it. Self-indulgence is not Christianity, in my opinion, and neither is hate.
