Rep. Mary Miller ― a Republican from Illinois who once praised Adolf Hitler ― wrote, edited and ultimately deleted a social media post decrying “a Muslim” speaking in Congress.
“It’s deeply troubling that a Muslim was allowed to lead prayer in the House of Representatives this morning. This should have never been allowed to happen,” she wrote Friday. “American was founded as a Christian nation, and I believe our government should reflect that truth. May God have mercy!”
The man leading the prayer was guest chaplain Giani Singh, a follower of the Sikh faith, not Islam. Miller’s Republican colleague Rep. Jeff Van Drew (N.J.) introduced him as such on Friday.
Honestly who could say what they meant by that, it’s such an open to interpretation remark.
Good thing we know exactly what they meant in the second amendment.
Yes but they’re going to go extinct if we cut off their arms.
Those poor bears
The thing you have to realize is that some words change meaning over time. If you check a dictionary from the time, you’ll find that back then “regulated” meant… oh, looks like it meant the exact same thing it means today. Huh, looks like it’s meant the same thing since it was taken from Latin. Fancy that.
