Comedian Michael Ian Black took to Twitter on Wednesday to sarcastically take down anti-Muslim rhetoric from Republican presidential candidates Donald Trump and Ted Cruz.
Black roasted the GOP candidates for unconstitutional double standards that apply liberty for all -- except for Muslims. His take-down came one day after a terrorist attack in Brussels prompted Trump and Cruz to double down on rhetoric, including Cruz's proposal to send American police to do special patrols targeting Muslim communities and Trump's promotion of torture.
Black started out by making fun of proposals to track Muslims by suggesting the government microchip them.
He also suggested the U.S. implement World War II-reminiscent policies of rounding people up -- but in a jab at Trump, said it should be done "nicely."
Some people didn't recognize the sarcasm -- perhaps because Black mimicked the tone of the candidates so well.
Black then went on to lampoon conservative Christians that interpret religious liberty exclusively for their own benefit.
But don't worry, Black hilariously concluded. All of these civil liberties will be violated in a fun way.
