US Lawmaker Randy Fine Sparks Outrage with 'Dogs Over Muslims' Comment

• US Congressman Randy Fine from Florida compared Muslims to dogs on social media, stating, "If they force us to choose, the choice between dogs and Muslims is not a difficult one."
• The comment, which garnered over 40 million views, led to widespread condemnation from Democrats, civil rights groups, and social activists.
• Fine later issued a clarification, sharing a screenshot of a message from Palestinian activist Nerdeen Kiswani, who had characterized dogs as "unclean" in a satirical post.
• This is not Fine's first controversial statement; he has previously called for mass expulsion of Muslims, labeled them as "terrorists," and mocked the suffering of Palestinians.
• Calls for his resignation and disciplinary action have intensified, with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries labeling him an "Islamophobic, disgusting and unrepentant bigot."
