‘Words have meaning:’ Kamala Harris links violence to anti-Muslim rhetoric
Sacramento Bee ^ | July 6, 2016 | Christopher Cadelago

Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Kamala Harris, campaigning Wednesday at a service hosted by the Islamic Center of Southern California, attributed the rise of California hate crimes motivated by religion to a national ratcheting up of “rage” in the political discourse.

Harris, a career prosecutor, said the relationship between speech and violent action occurs “on an almost constant basis.”

“I know how painful and violent these crimes can be. I know they are uniquely insidious in that they are intended to strip its victim of dignity. So words matter,” said Harris, speaking at a service marking the end of the holy month of Ramadan.

Bullets have meaning, pressure cooker bombs have meaning, jet airliners crashing into buildings have meaning, the 350 people around the world slaughtered during the "holy month of Ramadan" have meaning.

Sounds like she wants “Common Sense speech control”

She’ll be doing it for the children.

Kamala Harris, communist, probably next US Senator from CA, and if so, you will see her run for president very soon thereafter. She is horrible. Since no republicans are in the runoff, I will have to break a lifelong rule and vote for the imbecilic Loretta Sanchez to keep Ms. Mao out of the Senata.
Slim odds of success, though.

Do the American people see that the democrats now plan to turn this into a destabilized Muslim nation? As well as a nation overwhelmed with millions more illegals?

Absolutely incredible.

The victims of terrorism be damned.

By the way, at the rate at which Muslims are killed in the US in provable “hate crimes”, it would take roughly 60 years to equal the Orlando death toll alone.

This bitch, Kamala Harris seems to think words have more meaning than deeds.

I don’t see Americans murdering Muslims but I sure see Muslims murdering Americans here in our own country!

The elite never think they may end up on the ‘wrong end of the stick’ after they sell their souls. Happens time and time again.
