    yeah...look up the difference between cherry picked stories to support a blanket statement over actual personal convictions …..I can find thousands of stories about Americas own native mass murderers, rapists, etc...who've also been released from jail multiple times....just doesn't support an anti immigrant fear based agenda...check your fearless leader for fake statements and misleading posturing...it's all he's got

    I was under the impression he was asking what word(s) to use instead of using the R word. I was not suggesting that someone who is physically or developmentally disabled should be called any of those terms.

    no...reality about criminal behavior at it's worst....to google search for that one guy that falsely represents the vast majority so as to prop up a narrative about his ethnic background....nothing fine about it. probably half your posts are whataboutism….see any argument you have with crandc or dviss...double standards

    Hilarious. Although mentioning double standards and dviss and crandc is accurate but you're wrong about why.

    You have a big heart and define the world as your people. I define US citizens as mine. Crandc has it down to LGBT and dviss is Pro black (not to be confused with anti white)

    If every white person outside the US dies tonight I'll think that's a shame and go to work tomorrow like I do every other day.

    Well, seeing as how every person who crossed the border without a visa commited a crime I'd say you're wrong.

    100 percent of those illegal immigrants are criminals so........

    We should talk about catching unicorns because Merkley becoming President is just slightly more likely.

    People of every political persuasion often drive drunk. Me? I gave driving drunk up when I hit 30. Wish I'd never done it, but I did so there it is. Funny thing, two of my worst drunk driving incidents were when I got caught by the police. One made me follow his car from East Portland to the West hills where I was living. We drove slow and careful. The second time was in Florida and the officer said something like "You boys drive straight home and be careful on the way." and that's what we did. Okay, home was a college dorm in Tampa.

    I drank and drove in different times. These are better times.

    I repeat, a lot of people from all types of affiliations drink and drive. I hope you're not one of them.

    Crossing the border in most instances is a misdemeanor.
    "The illegal entry of non-nationals into the United States is a misdemeanor according to the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965..."

    A misdemeanor is not the same as rape, murder or drug dealing. It is not the sort of felony where the law requires separating the children. That was my point that I did not make clear. And this is why I request some sort of explanation that I know I'll never get.
