Sadly, even with a culture that's ever changing, their outing would cause ire for sure, but I doubt many would suffer any real consequence as a result. Districts are so heavily gerrymandered, racists reps aren't going anywhere, anytime soon. I believe we are trending towards a more inclusive, open minded society...but we got a ways to go yet.
Now, if they caught them saying something on record about God being bullshit, that abortion was OK, that some of their best friends were Muslims, or they enjoyed sucking a hard cock...then the hammer would drop. Ain't gonna tolerate that shit! Racism? Eh, what racism? All those food stamp and welfare queens. You saw what those animals did in Ferguson! It's not racism, it's truth.
Things have changed quite a bit, but we got a ways to go yet. I hope it's sooner than later.
Sure wish YOU were in office. Or at least writing an opinion column in a major newspaper...
