Republicans: Healthcare is like Dachau
If I see one more Holocaust exploitation condoned...
Did you hear? Rep. Jeb Hensarling (Tex.) likens standing under a picture of dead children to "freedom". Exploiting the Holocaust is...what? Cute? Kicky? Charming? A great analogy for healthcare? (healthcare he and his family readily enjoy! [does that make him a Nazi?]) Why don't the Republicans know better then to dishonor the systematic murder of millions? Because nobody with anything sensible to say says it under a banner of dead children. Now: Nobody is saying people arn't allowed to their free speech. But with free speech also comes responsiblity. That often forgotten companion to conducting yourself in public. If you want to carry a Holocaust sign, full of dead children to further your cause, that's fine. If I see a policeman trying to take it away from you, I'll do my best to stop him. But make no mistake, there is a price to pay for being such an amoral, irresponsible waste of human flesh.. And that price is me laying you flat on the pavement in front of all of your super awesome soldier-of-fortune buddies. I don't care if you're 6'4 and 250lbs. I have family that never left Dachau. In their memory, I will collect your snot-nosed tears. Of course, sure, you can keep your sign. I'd never take away your right to wave it. But be aware, that you do not get to dishonor something you do not have legacy to. At least you dont get to do it, and recieve my mercy. Have a great day.
