I'm stunned that now the new PC is to divide the military by race and religion when soldiers die.
During WWII we had American soldiers die and they were mentioned by their rank or just simply by calling them American heroes or American soldiers.
Of course we can look at their graves and see in some cases their religion to be mentioned but they are all American soldiers.
Now these muslim parents come out and make their son a muslim soldier and mentioning the Constitution just to utter their personal agenda and smearing trump.
Of course the Democrats embrace them but do we know what race or religion all other fallen American heroes had?
Do we know the race or religion of the fallen Benghazi victims?
No the democrats have a new narrative to slender Trump.
Very sad and to me all of them are American soldiers/heroes!

Indeed they are, that is exactly the point that Mr. Khan was making. You judge a person by the content of their character not the religion they belong to.
No, it is Donald Trump who is trying to divide by religion and race. Since when has there ever been a "religion test" for immigration or border entry? And how can authorities tell if a person is Muslim or not? Is there a blood test for Muslim?
Shame on Trump for disrespecting a Gold Star mother. Shame on Trump for implying that Mr. Khan forbade Mrs. Khan from speaking. Jeb Bush put it perfectly: "This is so incredibly disrespectful to a family that endured the ultimate sacrifice for our country."

"by religion and race"
Hmm. Where is your example regarding race? (It sounds as though you do grasp that Muslim isn't a race).

The Mexican immigrants are "rapists and criminals" comment by Trump is race-based. It's all part of a Trumpian philosophy that promotes stereotypes. There's a small percentage of Muslims who are terrorists, so all Muslims must be bad. There's a small percentage of criminal Hispanics, so all Hispanics must be bad. Trump knows how to blow the bigotry dog whistle to attract people who think the same way.

Very sad how some people cherry pick and ignore the human trafficking and drug cartel who do these very things. I bet you support women & children only when it suits your narrative. The left NEVER speaks about the children sent here on their own and the raping that happens along the way. Guess as long as those people get here, they can be future voters for those who really don't seem to care what they go through.

False statement. Trump was asked a question by a so called journalist who actually is in the tank for crooked Hillary and he answered.
I'm even more stunned that Trump could be baited by grieving parents and further insult them.
what he COULD/SHOULD have done was reminded everyone how HRC voted for the war in Iraq... or that his policies would help keep people like suicide bomber who killed their son out of the US.
BUT NOOOOOOOO! Not Trump. He never takes the high road. He doesn't even know what it means.

he's finished.
Yep.
I'm not a Trump supporter, and I don't know how Colonel Allen B. West (Ret.) feels about Trump, but I read Colonel West's Open letter to Mr. Khan (link provided by a CD member in another post). I agree with Colonel West, and he touches upon what you mention in your second paragraph, among other things.
