Wait... For 8 years Democrats accused anyone who didn't agree with them of being racist. And Trump supporters are stereotyped as deplorable's, uneducated, racist, women who do as their men tell them and you want to give me a lecture on stereotyping? pfft

I can't talk about the left but I do know a good number of anti-Obama stuff was in fact racist. As for me, I didn't accuse any anti-Obama supporter of being racist unless they actually were racist and I was far from an Obama supporter until 2014. I don't stereotype Trump supporters as racists, uneducated or woman haters unless they are being or acting as such.

Worship the ground Obama walked on and agree with everything he stood for, overlook the bad policies because he's black, if you don't your racist. Yea, I've seen years of this BS. Yet another reason I'm glad Hillary wasn't elected. First, she was corrupt, second I didn't like her promise to be Obama 2.0. If she had been elected, dare disagree with Hillary and the left would call you sexist. I'm a woman so I'd be told I'm just doing what DH tells me.

And I supported Obama until 2011 when I really started listening to him.

And you believe them?

I did see the left's worship and how the media and the left attacked anyone who dare disagreed with him. I don't have to agree with anyone based on skin color or gender. All they cared about was coddling and worshiping Obama. And I really don't care to talk about "the race card". After the lefts constant accusations I've had my fill of it, it's been way over played. Are you black? If so, you've had your time in the spotlight, like it or not, you are one of us now. Latino's are more important to the Democratic party now.

And Republicans don't give a crap about the majority of immigrants who are good people as long as we're stereotyping people.

Maybe that is part of the problem. The Police or FBI arrest sex traffickers and then turn them over to immigration authorities when they are done if appropriate.

Why is "Immigration and Customs Enforcement" busting sex traffickers?

And this may be a good indication of why we need to replace ICE with something that wants to work on Immigration and Customs.

Because the media and open borders activists drum into our heads everyday the unsubstantiated claim that they're just here to work, they commit less crime than native-born Americans, they're hard working, they just want to feed their families, etc. They're all but hitting us over the head with the stereotype that these people are BETTER than Americans and if you question it you're a racist Nazi bigot anti-immigrant xenophobe. We can't even acknowledge the fact that there are bad apples in every group...NO, they have no bad apples at all! Do these people know anything of the crime rates in Latin American countries? Just by probability, some of the ones crossing the border are going to be bad hombres.

So what?

They may also be illegally parked. So you give them a parking ticket instead of arresting them for sex Trafficking?
