Rep. Don Young (R-Alaska): Feed The Homeless To The Wolves

This GOP Congressman's Solution to Homelessness Involves Getting Eaten By Wolves

Rep. Don Young (R-Alaska) has a different idea. It involves wolves. Specifically, releasing grey wolves into the districts of 79 of his peers in Congress who had recently called for greater protections for the endangered species.

From the Washington Post:

"How many of you have got wolves in your district?" he asked. "None. None. Not one."

"They haven’t got a damn wolf in their whole district," Young continued. "I’d like to introduce them in your district. If I introduced them in your district, you wouldn’t have a homeless problem anymore."

ISSUES!!!

I tend to read more from those kinds of statements than just petty, inhumane thinking. There is some deeper motivation and he really should deal with it before it deals with him.
