Homicidy Tom Cotton accountability? Crickets.


?t=bAuTDHtT1daYcggNGAfaCw&s=19

A United States senator, Tom Cotton (R-Ark.), just tweeted that people inconvenienced by demonstrators should “take matters into your own hands.”

A few minutes later the tweet was edited.

End snip.

Sanctions? Censure? Resignation? Impeachment? Anyone?

Yes, he is scum. Yes, he is racist. Yes, he is a stolen valor sh*thead. Today he doubled down on homicide. It's not goddamned normal. It's not American. It is behavior that cannot be accepted. Stop shrugging your shoulders. Yell about it.

Sen. Tom Cotton endorses throwing protesters off bridges

End snip.

On Fox, Sen. Cotton endorsed throwing protesters off the bridge into the water/rocks below, and gluing their bodies to the car or pavement and ripping their skin off.

How is this scum a sitting Senator?

WATCH-- @chrislhayes on Sen. Tom Cotton calling for vigilante violence against protestors:

“Even by the debased standards of our day, this is just crazy, explicit incitement to violence by a sitting U.S. senator.”

End snip.
