John Kennedy on Senate Floor "Radioactive shrimp will turn you into an Alien"

and we wonder why the rest of the country laughs at Louisiana.

In the midst of the ongoing debacle concerning the recall of radioactive shrimp from Walmart, Kroger, and other U.S. stores, Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) caused quite a stir on the Senate floor on Wednesday. He suggested that consuming the shrimp could result in a person transforming into the chestburster alien from the 1970 SciFi horror movie Alien.
quote:
"This is a photograph of the alien from the movie "Alien. " This is what you could end up looking like if you eat some of the raw frozen shrimp being sent to the United States by other countries. How could you end up looking like the alien in the "Alien"? Because the shrimp was radioactive," Kennedy stated on Wednesday while standing next to a large cardboard picture from the 1979 film.

That is over the top but then again the very premise under why this is a story is also over the top as the recall should have never happened in the first place.

The most embarrassing part is that this is all act. Kennedy is an attorney with degrees from Oxford, Vanderbilt, and UVA.
Just another case of an ivy league elite pretending to be a dumbass for the sake of pandering to the loudest voices. Ted Cruz, Josh Hawley, etc.

The people of this state elected him to represent the state of Louisiana. He's making Louisiana look like a bunch of backwoods coonasses with these over the top exaggerations.

Remember when Trump said that the Haitians in Ohio were eating cats and dogs.
The most important part of that statement wasn't that they were eating cats and dogs (they weren't, they were eating ducks and geese out of the ponds in the parks), it's that their were 25,000 Haitians living in a town in Ohio that the nation didn't know about.

Attention on what? A non-existent radioactive shrimp problem? There's plenty of reasons to avoid imported foods from China and SEA, but this whole thing about radioactivity is contrived bullshite. The amount of radioactivity actually detected in the shrimp was significantly less than a bunch of bananas. 68 Bq/kg is nothing, but once again the uneducated masses are up in arms because they are too dumb to fact check what the TV tells them.
