MONSTER DOWN THE ROAD: illegal immigrant arrested in murder of Mollie Tibbetts
they just spoon feed their watchers this xenophobic bullshit and they swallow it down and repeat it.... its a very sad story, no doubt.... but the only reason its a story nationally is because the guy wasn't an American citizen... the sad reality is people get abductedandmurdered every day by American citizens... but let it be a white woman and an undocumented immigrant and holy shit, look out
I warned you. immigration screamed from: The Right: illegal immigrants rape and murder The Left: separating children from parents
You warned me?
Ship the print, comrade
What's the story on the print? I went in burrito for a while and must have missed this one.
I believe my2hands won the Missoula poster but he rather forfeit it for silly responses.
What will be the Giuliani spin? “It’s only a crime because someone decided it was a crime, but it’s not really a crime if you didn’t intend for it to be a crime”.

oh probably pull out the old nixon. it's not a crime if the president does it. and honestly, this whole "you can't indict a sitting president" is bizarre to me. I mean, who came up with this idea that a president cannot be charged?

And isn’t that basically unconsciously admitting guilt? If I’m going the speed limit, I don’t mentally play out how I can try to talk myself out of a ticket like I do if I’m speeding.

I’m guessing it was to prevent spurious legal claims from opposition parties from derailing the business of government, but I agree it doesn’t appear warranted.

And how many violent crimes occur at the hands of US citizens?
Ha!! He's not getting impeached any time soon, I'm sorry to say. Remember that's a political process. Nixon held on until he lost support of the Senate. Today, Trump has a firm grip on the GOP so until that changes, no impeachment. That is unless somehow the Dems can get 66 Senate seats and that isn't happening this cycle.
I agree it's very unlikely but the key is Dems need to vote and win the house.
If they do, they get subpoena power and can have all the crooks testify on national TV every week.
Getting a public answer to who junior called with a blocked number the day of his Russia emails would be yuuuge.
Public hearings were key in Watergate. Having all the current investigating hush hush has given trump the ability to make this look like a witch hunt.
Just the other day a few libertarians were making Mueller jokes in the office. Not anymore. I vow to call trump a crook any time politics is mentioned in public near me.

Too many. Does that mean we should ignore it when our laws have failed and that person here illegally commits a crime? Certainly doesn’t mean illegal immigrants are more violent...they are less so actually...but it still shows a breakdown of our really poor immigration system. I think that should be highlighted when it’s a contributing factor to anything. Or shall we just ignore it cause citizen guys kill girls all the time too?

Statistically, we would be safer if there were more immigrants and fewer native-born Americans.

Isn't an untouchable president a bit too close to, I don't know, a king? Didn't we already decide to escape that?

I feel like some laws need to be changed or amendments added when it comes to this. Trump has highlighted some serious holes in the office of the president. The US needs to take steps that will work better to control a maniac in the White House.

Is that what I coulda meant when I said “they are less so actually”....

Not really. We just need congress doing their job.
But hes only been in for less than 2 years and all kinds of crap headed his way....so while it may not move fast enough it seems like the checks and balances are working.

One thing I absolutely hope comes out of this is to make it a prerequisite that all candidates must release their tax returns going back 10 years at least....

But when was the last time Congress did any kind of good job?? Obviously nobody can count on Congress. That's why laws needs to be changed. And I disagree that the checks and balances are all working. Trump has done an incredible amount of damage already. Checks and balances aren't exactly useful if they happen after the fact.

yeah I'm not sure what checks and balances have already worked.

A tragic but statistically impossible incident...like winning the lottery and getting struck by lightning when you deposit the check.

From the Washington post...
Numerous studies have failed to demonstrate that immigrants, legal or otherwise, pose a unique threat of committing crimes. In fact, some have shown that undocumented immigrants are less likely to commit crimes than native-born citizens. For documented immigrants, that number is even lower.
That hasn’t stopped people from seizing on another powerful anti-immigration anecdote.
