NY Dem: ‘All My Heroes Were America’s Enemies’

New York City councilman and State Assembly shoo-in Charles Barron has reiterated his admiration of dictators and said he hopes to host one of them — Zimbabwe’s Robert Mugabe — in the states … again.

“I would love for him to come to Albany. I would love for him to come anywhere in the United States, really,” Barron said in a recent interview with the New York Observer. “I think he’s a shining example of an African leader on the African continent.”

Barron famously hosted Mugabe as city councilman in 2002.

Mugabe took control of Zimbabwe in 1983 and instituted martial law in 1987. He rose to power after starting an ethnic cleansing in which tens of thousands of people were murdered, the Observer reports. Barron praised him because he seized land from white landowners and redistributed it to black Africans.

“No one’s perfect,” Barron told the Observer. “I see him as a freedom fighter.”

Barron has expressed support for dictators around the world, including Libyan dictator Muammar el-Quaddafi and Cuba’s former president Fidel Castro.

He told the Observer, “All my heroes were America’s enemies.”

Barron is expected to beat his Republican opponent for a New York Assembly seat handily. The Observer reports that he is running to replace his wife in the Assembly, who in turn is replacing him as city councilman.

Barron would be proud to be one of Mugabe’s murderous henchmen. People like him should be given a boat ride to where they belong.

They long to be tyrants.

Successful tyrants are their heroes and role models.

/Idi Amin Dada visited Germany and noticed there were no statues of Adolf Hitler. He was shocked! After all, Hitler was a famous leader who nearly conquered the world. Upon his return to Uganda, President Amin dedicated his own statue to Hitler.

Dem’s are just like the Butcher of Uganda.

There was a time when dolts like this asshat would have been literally run out of a community, not running for office and considered a “shoo-in.”

Just like Caliph Obama, hates this country and is proud of hating it.

I think we need to ship a whole load of people like this off to Syria and Iraq to star in ISIS beheading videos.

That way they die a happy death for an anti-American cause and we get these leeches off the neck of this country at the same time.

These black racists never want to live in the hellholes their heroes create. They just want to destroy achievement. They have a hatred for the good for being the good.

“I see him as a freedom fighter.”

Fighting and exterminating freedom the instant any trace of it appears.
