Pro-Trump NY lawmaker: Deport 'Mochelle' and her kids to Kenya if 'Muslim' Obama criticizes our guns

Pro-Trump NY lawmaker: Deport ‘Mochelle’ and her kids to Kenya if ‘Muslim’ Obama criticizes our guns

epublican lawmaker in St. Lawrence County, New York faces disciplinary action after posting a racist rant on Facebook about former President Barack Obama on Jan. 5, 2017.

In his post, Joel LaPierre shared an article about Congress making it easier to carry handguns as we enter Donald Trump’s administration. LaPierre’s commentary with the post then referred to Obama as “BIG EARS.” He wrote, “you and your muslim brothers did your best to destroy this great country and you failed.”

LaPierre also threatened the Obama family, writing, “keep poking the bear and we will pack you, Mochelle (sic), the kids, mother-in-law and any one else related to you and send you all on a one way trip to Kenya where you were born.” Obama is neither Muslim, nor was he born in Kenya. The birther conspiracies were first started by President Donald Trump in March 2011 when he asserted that he had “real doubts” about Obama’s birthplace.

The Republican lawmaker is both a member of the National Rifle Association and a fan of hunting, who now faces a censure for his online post. A censure is simply a public condemnation by the governmental body expressing disapproval of a member’s words or actions. The body’s legislative chairman, Republican Kevin Acres, said that while he didn’t agree with many of Obama’s policies, there is still a need to be “civil and courteous.”

Listening to and viewing a relentless stream of #alternativefacts for the last 38 years has completely unhinged these people.
