He offended the Italian American community. I happen to be Italian American. I don't know if you can tell. He gave the Christopher Columbus statue the finger. Literally. How offensive.

He offended the Sunni Muslim community because he proposes decriminalizing prostitution, which is haram in the Koran. No, it just goes on and on. (08:02–08:14)
