Two Nukes Were Not Enough....

NH State Rep Nick Levasseur is in trouble after posting the message shown above to his facebook account. Here’s a YouTube video of a news report about how his remarks could be offensive to “the Japanese heritage”

Video: Click Here

“Anime is a prime example of why two nukes just wasn’t enough.”

Levasseur has apparently apologized. It is unclear just how much damage this might do to his political career.


[BTW. Sorry for bad format.
Cant get video to embed T_T;]

    Leave it to asshats like that to leave stupid comments. Then they expect apologizing will make everything better.. This guy is full of fail.

    Saw this on Sankaku. Sadly, this kind of idiot exists everywhere. He just has a public venue.

    Anime or not, 2 nuclear bombs was inhuman and cruel enough, I can't believe some people will joke about nuclear bombs like that. That's sick.

    Anime like any other kind of media can be good or bad, but I guess "normal" ppl don't know that. On the other hand to comment about nukes like that, he himself should be nuked of his position. I wonder what kind of media he experienced and what kind of education he got to give comments like that, American media and education or is he inherently idiotic?

    (I meant no harm to any fine citizen of America out there, my point is idiots are everywhere, regardless of environment. There might be correlation between the environment and how many idiots out there though, hum.)

    Wow, look at all the comments agreeing with him. Sad that people are focusing on the "anime" part and not the "we should of killed more Japanese back then" part.

    Yeah, i just read the same topic at sankaku complex.

    Poor guy, he knows nothing to beat anime in the first place (anime popularity exceeding his popularity). The scream of looser is always sweet.

    "American people like Nick Levasseur are a prime example of why 9/11 just wasn't enough..."

    Note above phrase is meant as sarcasm in retort and that I actually wish no harm to any human being, but that sentence illustrates how rude and actually plain unhuman such a remark is, isn't it? It's not because you don't agree with some form of culture or other that you must wish or say the original people/country where it is from should all horribly perish.

    So Americans elect people who wish/want to wipe countries off the globe for such insignificant trivia as anime? Well done! And they dare condemn terrorism? The idiocy of people never ceases to amaze me...

    "Levasseur has apparently apologized..."

    It is annoying how politicians who shoot their mouths off expect to get away with it with just some insincere words. And then you have those who refuse to admit their mistake...

    I read in a british newspaper yesterday, that the anime industry in America alone was worth something like $2 billion. What an idiot.

    Oh and yeah, agree with everyone else obviously, condoning mass murder because you don't like a type of animation is a little bit sad...and you know, immoral.
