OJ Simpson was an American hero too.

The City of Atlanta is 12th on the list of cities over 250K with violent crime rates.

Or merit

All that matters to these loses is”equality” of results, camouflaged by BS “equal opportunity” “Racism” at every time “Affirmative Action” and of course the “Strength from Diversity”

All bogus. All for people who don’t want to work and study hard enough, just want it handed to them.

I wonder what King’s attitude would be today. 10-1 he’d have shifted gears too and bought in on the same BS

It may take years, but the Azzhats will eventually learn that if they try to kick Trump, he’s going to kick you back. Smarten up, people...you are not dealing with a pansy anymore.

Is GA District 5 better off than it was 28 years ago?

Past performance does not necessarily predict future results.

Only if Carter isn’t around to endorse him.

John Lewis is a demented communist racist scumbag.

The End.

In all fairness, its not like these animals swam over here or illegally jumped the border.

They were PURPOSEFULLY imported by WASPS and set free and enfranchised by the Republicans, instead of being repatriated back to Africa.

We still suffer mightily as a result.

Makes Obamacare pale in comparison.

My son recently attended a conference in Atlanta. Yes, it is crime ridden. What John Lewis did 50 years ago has been destroyed by his racial hatred and partisanship since.

The noted services he once rendered to improving this Nation have (for decades now) been replaced by his "One-Trick Pony" show! He has never heard of or seen a discrimination allegation which MUST BE REMEDIED NOW. I had to put up with his BS 25 years ago and his view of the world is a Loop-Tape of the 1950s - 1960s to this day!

John Lewis has been a bitter vicious partisan for as long I can remember. No surprise.

Maybe shouldn’t have included the numbers for aggravated assault since they give the wrong impression.

John Lewis an American hero. Full stop.”

So does that allow John Lewis to say or do anything he wants with out pushback???

Mr Lewis attacked Mr Trump first or does Mr Lewis and his defender deny that???

If we accept Mr. Lewis as an American hero as you state...does that give him impunity to attack anybody he feels like without retaliation... no it does not...that a simple fact

Mr Lewis attacked Mr Trump first and Mr Trump legitimately retaliated ...no person no matter how good or noble their actions in the past gains lifetime immunity for other actions in the future

Tweet John Lewis like I did

I challenged him to tell the truth that Sen. Sessions walked arm and arm with him at Civil Rights events. Sessions is a decent wonderful man who unlike Lewis is full of knowledge not BS. Lewis has done little to uplift his district.

Lewis is a race baiter, and a poster boy for age and term limits.

“John Lewis an American hero. Full stop.”

Heroes aren't allowed to ignorantly, rudely shoot off their mouths without challenge.
