Imagine If A Republican Said This...

There's a bill before Congress to prohibited convicted murderers, rapists, and pedophiles from receiving Food Stamps.  Mother Jones (well known left-wing publication) explains why this is a problem:
On Wednesday the Senate agriculture committee approved a GOP proposal that would amend the farm bill the Senate is considering to ban "convicted murderers, rapists, and pedophiles" from getting food stamps. On its surface, the idea sounds unobjectionable, but the measure would have "strongly racially discriminatory effects," according to the non-partisan Center on Budget and Policy Priorities (CBPP).
So Mother Jones is saying that blacks are disproportionately convicted murderers, rapists, and pedophiles, and so such a law is unfair?  Perhaps they meant that it was unfair to black murderers, rapists, and pedophiles?  Well, no, it treats all murderers, rapists, and pedophiles badly, regardless of race.  How can you parody the progressive mentality effectively when they do it to themselves so well?
