‘Offensive to Muslims’: Dem congressman calls on FBI to take down photos of terrorists
Daily Caller ^ | 6/21/13 | Gabe Finger

Always-unfiltered Rep. Jim McDermott penned a letter to FBI Director Robert Mueller Wednesday claiming a Joint Terrorism Task Force ‘Faces of Global Terrorism’ ad is racist.

McDermott, a Democrat from Washington state, voiced his “deep concern” about the ad, which shows mug shots of international terrorists, and asked the FBI chief to “reconsider publicizing” it.

According to McDermott, the “ad featuring sixteen photos of wanted terrorists is not only offensive to Muslims and ethnic minorities, but it encourages racial and religious profiling.”

Lets not forget that this is the same scumbag who said tea partiers had it coming during the testimony about IRS targeting of conservatives.

That's an unexpected coincidence. It's surprising how few look Amish, or Jewish, or Christian, or Buddhist, or Mormon, or even Shinto.

No it just robs the minds of traitors. Some are pretending to be friends of Democrats, and some are pretending to be the friends of Republicans.

I don’t get it. Does this congressman want the suspects to go undetected? Is he aiding and abetting the enemy? Is this congressman essentially a traiter?

This is why democracy always fail. We allow stupid immature people who want to live in a fantasy world to actually have a political voice when they should be shouted down. Whatever society develops after ours fails, will remember this lesson well.

I would have been so proud of Mueller if he had told McDermott to GFY. In writing of course.

OK, let us get this straight.

Photos of Middle Eastern Muslims as “WANTED” = Racist

Photos of White Americans as “WANTED” = Not Racist

Any questions, class?

We should get McDimwit a ticket to Chechnya or Saudi Arabia so he can go spend time with radical islamists and see how long his head stays attached to his body.
