You know how to tell a leftist? They always knowingly miss the point of an event and come up with some goofy deflection.


The point is "No illegal alien, No rape that particular time."



Or to paraphrase Stalin for our leftist "A single rape is a tragedy; a million rapes is a statistic."

And what is YOUR "motive"?


If it is only 1, it is too many.



Are you saying we should NOT be concerned about even 1 rape by an illegal?
I did not say "we should NOT be concerned". What is your agenda when you try to put words in my mouth I did not say?

What I am saying is horrid crimes committed by a few are being blown out of proportion in order to be used as a political tool to incite hate and further political agendas while 10's of thousands of similar crimes committed by non-illegals are largely ignored. You are complaining about lighting matches while the forest burns down around you. Its a good idea not to light matches in the forest but you are ignoring the more serious problem. If you are going to fight rapists then why confine the fight to a small skirmish while the major battle rages around you? I think the answer is the war does not fit your political agenda while the skirmish does.

This is just one of Trumps issues. He is myopic. His actions are knee jerk with out thought. He fails at seeing the big picture. He changes his mind almost daily as a result because he fails to understand much of anything and is reactionary to extremist ideas that he thinks fits his agenda. He backs himself into a corner with no way out without being labeled a fool. Well, its too late for that.

PS

My apologies for making a political statement while trying to make an apolitical argument. At least I put it in a separate paragraph as a different topic.

That's exactly the point. Criminals don't respect laws-pretty simple concept. And when they have no ethics and are willing to break our immigration laws and enter the country illegally-there is no reason to expect that these are people that have any respect for our other laws. They take what they want-regardless of laws.

Of course, the left-wing criminal apologists will whine "immigrants commit crime at a lower rate than US citizens". That's probably true-immigrants are vetted, they wait their turn, they respect the process and earn their way into this nation. Illegals aren't immigrants-they are simply criminals.

And for the intellectually challenged-"illegal" isn't a race.

In other news, the sun rose today, despite predictions otherwise.


Illegals kill, rape, and destroy. The story above is commonplace around the US, due the dem zeal for "diversity".


"Diversity" usually means, "we are going to bring in a bunch of low income, uneducated criminals to your neighborhoods so that you can appreciate crime and living under the constant threat of violence."

The agenda of reducing the amount of crime in the US? Yes, what a terrible agenda! And if you think people are drawing these conclusions based on "one" bad illegal you haven't been paying attention. We acknowledge that some are bad and some are good, which is why we have a system of LEGAL immigration in our best attempt to weed out criminals. But you don't want that--you want to play the odds and say well most of them aren't rapists and murderers so let's let everyone in and those who fall victim to the rapists/murderers oh well tough luck!

No, the only reason this is pointed out on here is because of the legal status of the rapist. Otherwise, when do any of you give 2 S's about women getting raped. If you were advocates for women to not be raped then that would be another story. Instead, you all are using this woman as a pawn to push your agenda of a crisis at the border.

My thinking isn't narrow at all, I want to work on preventing all of those criminal acts as quickly and easily as possible.

Be honest with yourself and stop trying make this about something it isn't.

I don't see anyone denying that at all, that is clearly the reason it's being pointed out. The rest of your statement is just ignorant bull****.




This is very simple, let's say you own a store and you have about 100 thefts per month, you've got limited security budget to prevent those 100 thefts from happening and those thefts are relatively difficult to prevent on an individual basis.

Over time you realize that about 10% of the thieves you're catching were previously banned from your store due to other issues or legal reasons but those bans haven't been strictly enforced and those people have been coming to your store fairly often.

Any good security officer would immediately say "Step 1, let's start to strictly enforce our bans and we'll knock out 10% of our thefts with little effort so my guys have more time to focus on the 90% that are committed by people who aren't already banned from the store."

That isn't racist against banned people, that isn't focusing on just the people who were banned and it isn't ignoring anything. That's good, logical police work. That's efficient and smart use of limited resources. That's prioritizing and achieving milestones.

Do you *really* believe that you are in a position here to speak intimately of the past experiences of all these fellow posters? You sound incredibly arrogant here, dictating the thoughts and opinions of others, not just now in the present, but also in the past.

Unless you are a certified mindreader, you have no call making these blanket statements. You are not the slightest bit qualified to tell people how they feel about sexual assault.

So much audacity. Ugh.
