Senate approves resolution condemning white supremacist groups (ignores Alt left- BLM and Antifa)
The Hill ^

Posted on 09/12/2017 9:09:01 AM PDT by Cubs Fan

Senators want Attorney General Jeff Sessions and the Department of Homeland Security to investigate "all acts of violence, intimidation and domestic terrorism" by white supremacists, white nationalists or associated groups and prevent them "from fomenting and facilitating additional violence."

The resolution formally gained the backing of 57 senators, including Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), before it passed the Senate on Monday night.

The KKK and neonazis are scum, but they were not violent in charlottesville until BLM and antifa people attacked them to take their free speech away.

Antifa, BLM and the alt left are a far greater threat to the country than the KKK et al.

So Stick that in your POS resolution, mitch you sorry rino bitch.

This is what the Senate thinks is important to legislate? Antifa? BLM? Budget? Tax relief? Immigration? Obamacare? Border wall? Investigate Clinton Crime Family? I could go on and on and on . . .but you all know the priorities.

Glad to see they are getting back to the important issues after taking 6 weeks off.

No wonder everyone hates them.

And the one victim, Heather Heyer, died of a heart attack, as she was 5' 3" 285 pounds and a menthol chain smoker.

Its hard not to believe that many or most Republicans in congress support the violent Marxist group Anti-fa.

Another feather in UpChuck Schumer’s cap. Next, the Turtle in charge will pass a resolution to build a monument to the egomaniac Schumer in the middle of the Reflecting Pool.

Is this the same Senate that chummed it up with Sen. Robert Byrd for so many decades?

There is just no way these morons in the Senate, led by McTurtle, wasted time on this. Time for CITIZENS to rise up, and riot! Oh, they already have? Antifa & BLM! Ah, but are they citizens? They certainly aren’t lawful!

“Senate” is derived from the ancient Latin meaning “ignorant buttwipes”.

Better to say you’re sorry to your friends than to explain to the race baiters.

How many “white supremacists”, kkk, and “neo Nazis” actually exist all together in this country? My guess is less the number of idiots in the Senate and House of Representatives. This is all showboating to appease the Main Stream Media.

After a lifetime of never missing an election, I sat out the congressional portion of the 2016 election.

Articles like this vindicate my decision.

Why not make those Groups against the Law?

Who needs the First Amendment?

Of course this Kabuki Theater is just being done to insinuate that President Trump didn’t do enough to condemn such beliefs.

Congress only condemns one race by name.

Congress only condemns one color by name.

Better to simply condemn all violence regardless of race and color.

Funny thing is that KKK and NAZI are also leftist groups.

The farthest right group we have is the Libertarians. (boring)

DC rap speak, 1984 + 33.

Our lost congressmen, GOP and such, vote on bills, tangent from the truth on every issue presented to it, anymore. Congress is led by cunning and evil people who guide them to issues via a glass darkly; before they can even consider, with their own minds, an alternate perspective is carefully placed before them and they are bewitched by the presenters into the distorted, divergent point of view.
