Nebraska Legislator Uses Racial Slur in Front of Fourth Grade Class
Nebraska state Sen. Bill Kintner used a racial slur in the floor of the Senate this week. Better still, he used this while a 4th grade class was present for the debate!
He was talking about immigration.
But it was his use of a racial slur that had other lawmakers saying that he had crossed the line.
Kintner argued that instead of granting legal status to Dreamers, President Barack Obama should emulate a 1954 crackdown on illegal border crossings that was known as “Operation Wetback.”
This one reminds me so much of the legislators in New Hampshire that mocked children trying to learn about government by getting a bill passed. I swear terrible legislators are actively trying to make kids apathetic about government. Which makes sense because apathetic citizens are how terrible legislators end up in office year after year.
H/T malindafrevert for this one.
