Congressman Peter King Owes an Apology to Muslims No American uses the N word or Anti-Semitic statements and gets away with it, now thanks to the Supreme Court, Gay bashing will be gone. That leaves Hispanic immigrants and Muslims. With Amnesty, hopefully xenophobia will be reduced but Americans together need to stand up and put a stop to irresponsible statements made against fellow Americans.
