A California congressman known for edgy sarcasm mocked an opponent of illegal immigration during a town hall meeting last week, asking, "Who are you going to kill today?" before the constituent, a self-identified Minuteman, posed his question.
Rep. Pete Stark, D-Calif., no stranger to controversy, mocked the idea that the borders are not secure when asked about the federal government's lack of activity on border security.
"We can't get enough Minutemen armed. We'd like to get all the Minutemen armed so they can stop shooting people here," Stark said.
Eventually, members of the audience urged Stark to offer a serious answer.
"If you knew anything about our borders, you would know that's not the case. Our borders are quite secure, thank you," Stark said, drawing jeers.

He only gets away with this crap because the people here are so weak, and let thugs and gangbangers like him get away with crap like that.
In other words, they're liberals.
“If you knew anything about our borders, you would know that’s not the case. Our borders are quite secure, thank you,” Stark said, drawing jeers.
Let’s put Mr. Stark out on the section of Arizona border that the Border Patrol agent’s union leaders have defined as too dangerous for their members to guard (for just one night), and then ask him if he might want to amend his comments.
Mr. Stark is either too cowardly to do the right thing, deluded into thinking that there is no problem, or simply being a politician.
Mr Stark needs a Jethro Gibbs style whack upside the head
I’m reading a great book, Term Limits, by Vince Flynn.
“Rep. Stark Mocks Border Security Advocates: Who Are You Going to Kill Today?”
Well, Mister Stark, how’s about we start with a few idiot congresscritters and senaturds?
LLS
Do the voters in his district want to reelect him?
Does he represent them well?
That ain’t ‘edgy sarcasm’. It’s the tip of their satanic rage poking through.
Let us hope his constituents “help him” find new opportunities in Nov. Let us pray for it.
I cannot say what I think of that elitist “bleep” on this forum.
Who are you going to kill in his mother’s womb today?
His District would elect the Dem. candidate if he was a convicted child molester.
Well, Pete, the thought arises of slathering you in brown makeup and letting you loose at the border...but no, it would be wrong, that’s for sure.
This is the classic example of how there’s something very wrong with our current election system.
stark acts like this and the people of his district still vote him in...??...they deserve what they get....
Mr Starks,
who are you going to let be killed by an illegal alien today?
That’s why he makes those sarcastic and snide remarks. He knows he will be reelected no matter what outrageous things he says. He’s a bully and what he really needs is a smackdown or an ass-whoopin’.
"The danger to America is not Barack Obama, but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president."The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the confederacy of fools that made him their prince. "The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president."
