New Hampshire state Rep. Michael Cahill (D) once asked of his fellow lawmakers that if the budget isn’t going include people with disabilities, then why not euthanize them.
“Since we are refusing to raise revenues to fund needed programs, to fund services to disabled, for example, have you looked at euthanasia?” asked Cahill during a debate on the budget on Wednesday.
He was quickly called out by House Speaker Shawn Jasper, who stated that his comments were “inappropriate.”
Cahill later apologized for using a ‘poor choice of words.’
Disabled? This is a wide range of people. Some have mental disabilities, neurological and others physical. This is MILLIONS of people. This man is sick and should be removed from his position for expressing how he feels about the value of the life of AMERICANS that he swore to serve. This MF serves me and I want him FIRED.
The guy was using the offensive term as a slam against legislators who WOULD NOT approve funding for much needed services for the disabled. It does our Conservative cause no good to misrepresent the meaning of this speech, even if the speaker is a Democrat. While we despise the direction legislation has taken in New York and Virginia, I believe we mustn’t lower ourselves to the level of the “Demoncrats” in our reporting.
And if he hadn’t had nefarious intent, this question could have been used to point out the inhumanity of not providing basic care, housing etc. But he was being #LikeNazis
hge is just pointing out that the Republican would rather cull the entire disabled population and give the money to thuier rich buddies, they refuse to do what is right for disabled people the republican are nothing smooth criminals stealing money from the poor and giving to the rich they been doing for 1`00 fuckin g years in this country
Hell. Is going to be overflowing
Where did You PEOPLE come from
Killing babies. Killing. Old people
Killing sick people. Etc.
So what church do you people go to.
I know I don’t want to go hear your Preacher.
More and more people are expressing this desire. If you think this will never happen, just remember that some states are passing laws that let babies born alive can be left unattended to die if the mother decides she doesn’t want the baby. They are trying to convince people that this is okay.
The thing is that the wealthy need us poor people around. Who’s going to grow the food that they eat? Build their houses? build their cars and yachts? Clean their houses? etc. We do have some control over them, just by not doing the things that they need. Just remember most of them are just too lazy to do those things for themselves.
Seriously how in the hell did this man become part of congress. I sure hope the good people of New Hampshire re-evaluate who they are voting for in the next election. People remember the disabled now once were people that fought for your country, nursed you while in the hospital, were once fireman/policeman/EMT’s that served your community. They are teachers, laborers, road workers, iron workers, that paved the very roads you drive on today. They were and still are the backbone of communities across America.
