GOP Hate Flyers: Watch for New ISIS ‘Neighbors’ in Kansas
Nevermind that the three most recent terror attacks in Kansas have been a from a fundamentalist Christian murdering a doctor, a Neo-Nazi attempting to murder Jews, and a Christian Militia trying to murder Muslims… we gotta watch out for ISIS. Notice how the GOP Executive Director cites that militia attack as justification for this fear-mongering hate flyer.
Clay Barker, executive director of the Kansas Republican Party, said similar mailers are being sent out around the state.
“We did polling and focus groups, and the one issue that got overwhelming positive response and was associated with Republicans was safety,” Barker said. “You know, Gitmo, that article that came out back in August that ISIS had named soldiers for assassinations, police being shot and those knuckleheads in Garden City, it all kind of added up to a security issue … the whole feeling that’s there violence out there. And it’s a positive issue for Republicans.”
The FBI thwarted a terror plot earlier this month in Garden City. Three white nationalists allegedly planned to detonate a bomb at an apartment complex that houses Somali Muslim refugees and serves as a mosque.
