Are We Really At This Point?

TPM points out statements by MA GOP state rep Ryan Fattman that ...
I'll be damned if I'll paraphrase this kind of thing:

Asked if he would be concerned that a woman without legal immigration status was raped and beaten as she walked down the street might be afraid to report the crime to police, Mr. Fattman said he was not worried about those implications.

“My thought is that if someone is here illegally, they should be afraid to come forward,” Mr. Fattman said. “If you do it the right way, you don’t have to be concerned about these things,” he said referring to obtaining legal immigration status.

You'll have to excuse me if this makes me want to throw up, illegal immigration is worse than having a rapist run loose. WTF is wrong with this country that anyone with the least pretence of running for any office or holding any office would say such a thing? That this nation has managed to spawn enough people like this for such a thing to be said makes me feel like telling the whole show to stuff itself up *an un-named orifice.

*My mother told me I was being too rude awhile ago - and at age 58 I still pay attention to her because she is right a lot.
