One need only have a look at this man’s Facebook page to see his dedication to the new crusades, being destroy Islam, and injecting it with precisely the type of religious fervor that has historically led to the bloodiest behaviors in human history AND that an elected government official would be passing this bile out, is not only highly offensive, because it goes against the core values in which this country was founded, it’s dangerous. That is precisely what has been pointed out in the complaint filed by Representatives Cooper, Turner, and Clemmons.
Tennessee Isn’t an Isolated Incident
While it’s not clear if there will be any type of censure for Rep Lynn, this type of behavior, using government position to promote hateful and unconstitutional ideology is not isolated, and it’s not exclusive to TN. Just recently, during the Oregon Standoff Nevada lawmaker Michele Fiore, of Bundy Ranch fame, involved herself square in the middle of the remaining occupiers of Malheur National Wildlife refuge turning themselves in to the FBI. If you want to understand just exactly how deep the crazy runs is with this lady, who is a legislator in the state of Nevada, hop on down this rabbit hole, and listen to her phone conversation with these seditious loons. You really need to hear this. It doesn’t take more than just a few minutes of it to understand that this person is against the very govt she is sworn to serve.
