This is not a case of the "media" sensationalizing anything.....but of a greedy ass megalomaniac using a family's tragedy for his own personal gain!


Really? You have that all 100% wrong. This thread is just a cheap shot at some one you don't like, and your actually using this dead girl to beat him with the body. Your using this for your own personal agenda gain and throwing stones at others. That's what's really sickening yet comical. And your blind as a Bat and can't see it.

Your "spin" spoofing "outrage" isn't working. Its still a Bashing thread to you, doing exactly what your accusing Trump of.

Compares almost as much as your exploiting their tragedy to use as a club to pound on Trump with. Actually, this use of her Death is worse than what you accuse Trump of. Sad....

I blame that on the Officials there that did not have the guts to confront the Criminals doing the looting and burning with the force that was needed. The looters should have been shot on the spot, and those inciting riots should still be in jail.

As I've written before, it is very difficult for a U.S. President to order State or City Officials to follow Federal guidelines without threatening severe penalties, and no U.S. leader would do that. We impose sanctions against foreign governments so that they will be more obedient. Do you really think we should end programs that benefit United States citizens? When a politician says to hold back Federal Funding to a Sanctuary City, he is admitting that punishing our own citizens because of where they live is an option. What programs should we cut? Jobs? Medicare? Maybe if there's an earthquake in San Francisco FEMA should ignore the needy. Guess the Federal Government shouldn't assist hurricane victims if there's a life threatening storm in Miami.

By the way, Obama did not (as you put it) "put an end"to the Secure Communities program. Local law enforcement agencies still must submit fingerprints to the FBI for criminal background checks. What changed is that ICE officials only issue orders to detain people in the country illegally who have been convicted of serious offenses or those who pose a risk to national security. The name was changed to the Priority Enforcement Program.

Sanchez was convicted several times, so the question is "who is at fault?" You obviously don't like anything Obama does and said more than once that he hates White people and wants to kill us all, which is why I wrote that I should not be addressing your posts.

I was not apologizing. I assume you were being sarcastic.

I realize you were being flippant, but Obama did not pardon anyone who was here illegally or who had committed a violent act.

I'm just trying to figure out what we're supposed to do with the illegals we deport who sneak back into the country. Kill them? Keep them in prison forever? Sanchez was deported at least 5 times. He committed crimes way before Obama was in office. He entered the U.S. when Clinton and Bush were both in office.

The POTUS is not some kind of magician who can be everywhere watching over 319 million citizens and millions of illegal immigrants, not to mention millions of tourists who enter our country every day. Anyone who blames Obama for this crime is being obtuse.

It is a conundrum on what do to with repeat violators of the Border. There should be some sort of appropriate punishment.

I'm curious. Did President Bush fly to Fort Myers when a young cop was murdered? Since I was living only 25 miles from the shooting at the time, I remember the story well. Officer Widman was married and had 3 little kids. He saw a woman in trouble and tried to break up a fight in a bar in Fort Myers FL. IIRC it was in 2008. I do not remember President Bush attending Officer Widman's funeral or speaking about the murder.

By the way, I also don't remember any Republican using the murder of a police officer for political gain in 2007. Yes, they complained about illegal immigrants, but when Nick Erfle, a Phoenix cop, was shot and killed by illegal Erik Martinez who had been deported in 2006 for burglary, where was their outrage against the POTUS back then?

This tragedy is being used for political gain. One illegal immigrant out of millions committed a terrible crime. There are about as many Jews as there are illegal immigrants (12 to 13 million) in the United States. When Bernie Madoff was first arrested for fraud and swindling people out of their life savings, I heard his name, closed my eyes and said "Oy, I hope he isn't Jewish." The reason is because, even though it had absolutely nothing to do with his crime, the neo-Nazis and other antisemitic groups used him as an example to hate all Jews.

There have been other murders throughout the years committed by illegal immigrants. In Fort Myers there was a similar situation, that is, a man who should have been deported shot a young police officer in the face. That was in 2008. Since I was living only 20 miles from the shooting at the time, I remember the story well. He was married and had 3 little kids. He saw a woman in trouble and tried to break up a fight in a bar in Fort Myers FL.

However, I do not remember President Bush attending Officer Widman's funeral or speaking about the murder. If anyone can produce information about this, please show me.

By the way, I don't remember any Republican using the murder of a police officer for political gain in 2007. Nick Erfle, a Phoenix cop, was shot and killed by Erik Martinez who had been deported in 2006 for burglary but re-entered the United States.
What about the political outrage of a flag because of the actions of one person out of hundreds of millions of people?

Seems no one was worried about using the deaths in SC for a political agenda.

I'm not sure I agree with the 5+10+15 year law they are talking about but a 2+4+6 years every time they come back over the border would sure make the Criminal element think twice about coming back over after they get home.

Every time a Felon crosses over you add 2 years (minimum) to his previous internment. We are talking about illegals who have committed Felonies.
