Tennessee state Sen. Frank Niceley (R) made his remarks on the Senate floor during a debate on a bill to make camping or soliciting along state highways or exit ramps a misdemeanor. Niceley said that he was going to give his fellow lawmakers a history lesson, adding that in 1910, Hitler took to the streets and practiced his oratory and his people skills. Hitler decided to live on the streets for a while. So for two years, Hitler lived on the streets and practiced oratory and his body language and how to connect with the masses, and then went on to lead a life that got him into history books, he said. So a lot of these people, its not a dead end. They can come out of this, these homeless camps and have a productive life, or in Hitlers case, a very unproductive life, he continued. I support this bill. The Hill has reached out to Niceleys office for additional comment on his speech. The Hill also reached out to state Sen. Ferrell Haile (R), the Speaker pro tempore of the state Senate. Following Niceleys remarks, some state lawmakers took to social media to condemn his comments. TN Senator says Hitler made something of himself after being homeless & you can too. Im going to have to apologize to the universe for this guy, tweeted state Rep. Gloria Johnson (D), along with the video of Niceleys speech. Hey @MeidasTouch not a single day passes without TN GOP embarrassing the hell out of our state. --- "Salt cures Everything!"
