Rep. Steve King: No Need For Investigation Into Ferguson Profiling Since They’re All ‘Of Continental Origin’
Asked by former Congressman J.D. Hayworth on Newsmax TV if the Congressional Black Caucus should look into what’s going on in Ferguson, Missouri, Rep. Steve King said it’s not necessary because, basically, they’re all black.
“This idea of no racial profiling,” King said, “I’ve seen the video. It looks to me like you don’t need to bother with that particular factor because they all appear to be of a single origin, I should say, a continental origin might be the way to phrase that.”
“I just reject race-based politics, identity politics” King concluded. “I think we’re all God’s children. We all should be held to the same standards and the same level of behavior.”

Rep. King proving once again that drugs are bad.

Wait….they are?
m2old4bs August 14th, 2014 at 1:04 pm
Well, methinks he’s taking the wrong kind of drugs then.
Mainah August 14th, 2014 at 1:23 pm
No, his drugs are bad.
Anomaly 100 August 14th, 2014 at 1:39 pm
I stand corrected.

“I’m not black, but, there’s a whole lots of times I wished I wasn’t white!”
Frank Zappa said it nearly 50 years a go…it’s still apropos today.

Did he understand the question? Because the answer made zero sense.
BanditBasheert August 14th, 2014 at 12:58 pm
It was impossible to tell who he was insulting.
tiredoftea August 14th, 2014 at 1:06 pm
You’d be safe to assume everyone who isn’t white.
tiredoftea August 14th, 2014 at 1:05 pm
Making sense is optional for him.
BanditBasheert August 14th, 2014 at 12:58 pm
Is he referring to the Congressional Black Caucus or to the people of Ferguson? Or is he just stoned as usual?
M D Reese August 14th, 2014 at 2:40 pm
All black people everywhere–and he stands by the “one drop” rule. Being half white is no excuse…
tiredoftea August 14th, 2014 at 1:11 pm
So many things are wrong with that discussion!
SWEETSWOO August 14th, 2014 at 1:21 pm
This is all RACIAL! This so called news piece is RACIAL and it is time to call it as we see it here– This needs to be sorted and the ones responsible for killing that young man need to be brought to justice whether cop or not!
Mainah August 14th, 2014 at 1:22 pm
What was he trying to say? Am I the only one who has no idea what the hell he was talking about other than that racist shit-and I am paraphrasing- “aren’t they all African?” Other than that … I really understood nothing he babbled about. Palin must have a Word Salad culinary arts school. They are all sounding the same. Is it infectious?
Skip Patterson August 14th, 2014 at 5:45 pm
No your not the only one that has no idea what he was talking about or trying to say.
Mainah August 14th, 2014 at 7:14 pm
Phew. I thought Palinitis was contagious.

This is the same attitude Steve King has towards DACA’s. He demonstrated it with his “calves the size of cantaloupes” remark, he demonstrated it towards the two DACA’s that confronted him, and he’s demonstrating it now. He’s a blatant racist and xenophobe, and he blames the left for it.
Mainah August 14th, 2014 at 1:24 pm
Did you see him with Rand, oh wait … you wouldn’t have seen Rand because he ran like the wind but remembered to grab his beer, when the Dreamers showed up at their greet while we eat appearance? Two racists just chummin’.

Most of the “darkies” have been here as long as most of the whities have. A lot of the people of “Mexican” origin have actually been here longer than the whities since a big chunk of the Southwest used to be part of Mexico. Steve King needs to take his cantaloupe thighs and his continental racism and go the hell away.

Who votes for these people? Don’t their constituents know we hear this shit so we simply assume the state who puts these idiots in office support these views.

Aside from his utter ignorance (and it’s the nasty willful kind), this guy doesn’t follow his own words. On one hand, he sees nothing as racial profiling because the skin color is all the same (what a f’tard!). Then he goes on to say that “We all should be held to the same standards and the same level of behavior.” O.o
So, we have a bigot lawmaker who has a blown logic circuit on standards. There’s no talking to this dumbass, since people like him see standards through the lens of a prism.

so is he saying all the cops are Black? or is he confused. Think he’s confused. wonder how much Brandy he had today
ecotoper August 16th, 2014 at 12:56 am
read the article … he is saying that everyone in the black caucus is black, and implying that they would likely be biased as a result … this guy is a jerk, but at least you could pay attention and gather the pertinent facts … who is drinking brandy ? …

The more King opens his mouth it becomes clearer and clearer for me to understand why he bailed on his plan to run for the Senate in Iowa.
