Did you ever hear of a political operative named simon radecki.
If not, lucky you.
At a town hall, held by U.S. Senator Pat Toomey and broadcast by PBS, this disgusting pus sac got up and asked the senator:
“We’ve been here for a while. You probably haven’t seen the news. Can you confirm whether or not your daughter Bridget has been kidnapped?”
That was right out of the blue…and a horrific frightening specter for any parent.
Except then, after pausing an estimated four seconds for maximum shock value, radecki continued ,“The reason I ask is because that’s the reality of families that suffer deportation … ”, as if illegals being sent back to where they are legal citizens is in some way equal to a child being kidnapped.
From Chris Potter’s article for the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette:
“If you were in the room, it was one of the scariest things that I have ever been a part of,” said PBS39 CEO Tim Fallon. Even after Mr. Radecki attempted to explain his query, Mr. Fallon said, “All I was processing was ‘Oh, my God, what has happened?’ … It was perceived as a threat by myself [and] folks I have had interactions with.”
“Asking questions that are based upon kidnapping a child is not only reprehensible, but it is inherently threatening,” said Steve Kelly, a spokesman for Mr. Toomey.
The police immediately removed the pus sac from the room, and police indicate he may be charged with disorderly conduct…
…which is very disturbing to the ACLU. Again from Mr. Potter’s article:
“He didn’t disturb the meeting,” said ACLU of Pennsylvania legal director Vic Walczak. “He was trying to ask a question.”
Yep, just a little question. I mean, what’s the harm?
This is exactly the kind of sick tactic which, if used by a right wing operative against a Democrat Senator, would be all over the news, complete with condemnations of how vile those alt.right pigs are.
But this is a left wing operative against a Republican Senator. Do you really think you’ll see it on the news tonight?
If so, you have a vivid imagination.
