Bipartisan group of lawmakers condemn anti-Semitic attacks on Parkland students

A bipartisan group of lawmakers issued a statement on Friday condemning anti-Semitic attacks on students from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.

Four lawmakers from Florida and New York said they condemn "anti-Semitism in all its forms and reject any inappropriate evocation of the Holocaust or comparison to Nazis."

The letter — signed by Reps. Ted Deutch (D-Fla.), Nita Lowey (D-N.Y.), Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-Fla.) and Eliot Engel (R-N.Y.), who co-chair the House Bipartisan Task Force for Combating Anti-Semitism — comes after anti-Semitic and anti-gun control fliers were left adjacent to the campus of American University this week.
Yahoo News reported on Monday that police arrested a person was caught trying to hang anti-Semitic fliers that pictured a survivor of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting in February. Adolf Hitler was also pictured on the flier.

“It is shameful for anyone to attack students — especially survivors of gun violence — with anti-Semitic slurs and Nazi comparisons. Policy differences are never an excuse for anti-Semitism," the lawmakers' statement reads.

I am shocked! Just as I am shocked how this was covered and discussed by so many who despise bigotry.


Oh wait...nope, not shocked at all. Not shocked at the anti-Semitism, not shocked at the lack of interest or discussion.
