This ad has been cancelled now due to Democrats being so stupid and at the same time this horrible Home Depot truck driven by Islamic ISIS terrorist killing so many people and injuring more people!

Democrats should be ashamed for not thinking before making this ad! Stupid!

Cancelled only after terrorist attack occurred in similar way!
Otherwise this ridiculous and outrageous ad would still be up! Liberals are really losing it!

Why?

Because of the following:

2/3 of welfare recipients vote Dem. There are actually statistics on that. They haven't yet figured out that it's in the Dems' best interest to keep them poor and therefore dependent on the government. It's the only way Dems can win elections and try to keep some semblance of political power.

Meanwhile...
Quote:
Share of Recipients of each program that self-identified as supporters of Republican party in Maxwell Poll:

Gov. Subsidized Housing: 12%
Medicaid: 16%
Food Stamps: 20%
Unemployment Compensation: 21%
Welfare or public assistance: 22%
Disability benefits from government: 25%
Chart at the link via an Iranian-Swedish economist, MA in Economics from Stockholm University, PhD in Public Policy from the University of Chicago:
https://tino.us/2012/02/are-welfare-...ly-republican/

Data source:
https://www.maxwell.syr.edu/campbell/programs/Merged_Data_Set

And even worse, it's minorities who are very disproportionately kept poor.

Now that you understand that you're supporting the maintenance and growth of a perpetually poor underclass that MUST be kept poor in order to keep most of them voting Dem, will you still go along with that?

Exactly, and US citizen children are separated from their US citizen parents if the parents break the law and go to jail. So... I'm not seeing why the Hispanic group felt the need to say only illegal aliens' kids are targeted with separation from their law-breaking parents. All law-breakers' kids, if the parents are prosecuted, suffer that same fate

In my view, the Democrats have even more blood on their hands after today's events. That includes the extremists who ran this awful ad and anyone who defended it.

But we are all the same race....the human race. Color, nationality, nor religion should not matter but yet it does because this is what we are taught. It teaches prejudices instead of acceptance. If we all don't accept this then there will always be prejudice.

I just read something in the Daily Caller that the Repub candidate tripled his donations as a result of the outrage. Every cloud has a silver lining.
