U.S. Congressman Andy Ogles of Tennessee is under fire for his comments on the war in Gaza. In a recently released video, Ogles can be seen walking through the U.S. Capitol, as a pro-Palestinian activist questions him on Americas support for Israels military.

Thats my taxpayer dollars going to bomb those kids, the woman said.

You know what? Ogles said. I think we should kill them all if that makes you feel better.

The American Muslim Advisory Council, or AMAC, has denounced Ogles comments and an earlier neo-Nazi rally held in Nashville over the weekend.

Such rhetoric is not only abhorrent but also antithetical to our values as a state. It is such rhetoric that has continued to foster a political climate where extremist ideologies flourish, empowering neo-Nazis to openly parade through our streets and allowing genocidal sentiments to go unchallenged, the Tennessee-based organization said in a statement. This cannot be tolerated any longer. As citizens of Tennessee, we deserve better representation from those elected to office.

House Majority Leader William Lamberth filed a resolution Tuesday that would condemn neo-Nazism in the state.

Racism and hatred in any form are repugnant and sinful, he wrote in the resolution. Neo-Nazi groups promote an ideology in conflict with our nations bedrock principles of liberty and justice for all.

AMAC said it has seen a rise in anti-Muslim attacks across the state, including a pregnant woman being attacked by a neighbor in Memphis, online threats to Muslim community in Hamilton County and teenagers in Nashville being assaulted and called terrorists after attending a rally.

Last week, AMAC was also forced to take down a student survey after receiving a threat associated with one of the submissions.

Pro-life.

That's the party line and they want it stateside too.

The dems really need to stop running against individuals in the GOP. Just run an ad campaign nationwide, in every district, showing shit like this or when they talk about how it's ok for women to die giving birth to their rapist's baby. End it with "when you vote for a republican this is what you are voting for".
