Roll Call vote for H R 1044 had just 57 Republicans worth a damn, Amash votes with Democrats





The Republicans in Congress prove once again that they are the enemy, too


Hot damn I'm proud of Tennessee's Tim Burchett! He was one of the few, the proud, the 65 who voted against HR 1044

Way to go, Congressman Burchett. You are the man.

Hm, guy born to Jewish parents but raised on a poultry farm notes quadrupling of anti-Christian attacks in France since 2008, where taking census data by race or religion has been against the law since 1872

 

Anti-Christian Attacks in France Quietly Quadrupled. Why?:

Still, the available evidence shows that attacks carried out by Muslims, both in France and elsewhere in Europe, account for a small fraction of anti-Christian crimes. Indeed, one reason alleged “Christianophobia” is being downplayed by the French government is the fear of stoking Islamophobia – the concern that some people would instinctively blame Muslims for the attacks and retaliate (which has not happened).

“For the majority of the attacks, we have no idea of the perpetrator,” Ellen Fantini, a former federal prosecutor in New Hampshire who heads the Observatory on Discrimination and Intolerance in Vienna, said in a telephone interview. But, Fantini continued, “it's safe to say that there are many attacks that have nothing to do with extremist groups.”
