Wait... it isn't already? You mean those are normal people acting like that?

Aw man...

I'm sorry, but that had to be on purpose. There's no way that you can say that "by accident", and the mere utterance of those words kinda proves that deep down you are pretty racially insensitive. Either that or he is a complete and utter tool!

I'm not going to lie, I got a chuckle out of it. Though it is racially insensitive and obviously not a joke for public discourse.

Yes I like anime, and No I don't have anything against Japanese people.

Honestly if this is the worst thing he does in his life, this man deserves a medal.

Another reason to think before you speak. This is obviously what he really thinks, and he will pay for it.

Maybe he found some Hentai and mistook it for normal anime? That would certainly make me say insane things.

1.) After the two we initially dropped on Japan,we didn't have any more, did we not?

2.) Thats kind of an assholish thing to say. is it just me or does it seem that Politicians seem...more ignorant then regular people?

I doubt that that guy know the freaky deeky stuff about anime, just the top layer of the mainstream.
[sub]maybe it's just that cosplayers creep him out?[/sub]

or maybe, he's just an old racist grandpa type.

Oh boy another ignorant person saying stupid stuff about things they don't know about. What a surprise.
/sarcasm

Even though this isn't that surprising, stupid comments like this shouldn't be just left alone. I mean yeah the dude probably doesn't really know that much about anime and really didn't mean it but that kind of humor is unacceptable for our leaders. They shouldn't be making stupid comments like this and if they are they shouldn't be holding public office. If thats what you think keep it to yourself.

Why is it that so many forums like these drop humanity down a few notches in the "Respectable" ladder in my eyes?

Super Mutants in suits who argue pointless trivialities in Congress.

I'm assuming it's in jest anyway. If he was serious, and this is from a democrat, then I just want to curl up in a corner and cry.
Because it disrupts your perfect little dichotomy of nasty, mean, racist Republicans, and the perfect forces of the Democratic party?
Pretty much yeah.
Does that make the Behemoth in Capitol Nancy Pelosi?

So hilarious. Why do politicians keep saying things like this? Don't these 'professionals' realize that this kind of humor isn't going to go over well with some people?

He's in the New Hampshire State Legislature, that's a huge red flag. No one in their right mind would run for that low paying, dead end position.

Anyway, someone probably just tricked him into watching something like Bible Black, Kodomo no Jikan, or La Blue Girl.

Im pretty sure he was kidding (id be saying this even if he was a GOP) and does not actually want to re-bomb japan over anime.

what was truly stupid was that he put it on facebook.

btw...he's right...come on now...youve seen the goofy shit that comes out of there...and im saying this having finally gotten around to watching "Kekko Kamen".

Aw c'mon it's perfectly natural. These threads are reminders of this fact. I already lost my faith in humanity, little by little, at school...
Still I just can't help but keep a little optimistism. The only thing stopping me from saying "Fuck Humanity. I'm through with it" is that Humanity probably always been just plain facepalm-worthy all the way since ancient times. (Geez, if that's optimistic than this situation is worth than I thought).

Oh, look, a bandwagon! Come, my fellow politicians, let us jump upon it! Pray tell, what is it about? Who cares!
