Newt Gingrich: GOP should use Molly Tibbetts murder as issue during midterms

Lol

While my dad died 25 years ago, the thing that’s bothered me ever since is that I wasn’t there. He was sick with MS but had a cardiac event and died within hours of being admitted to the hospital when my mother called me to tell me what was happening. I was stationed in Germany at the time and barely made it back for the funeral. So I definitely feel you K.

Was lucky enough to spend some serious quality time with him before he went. I truly wish everyone could be that lucky. I’m sorry you didn’t get that, but thank you for serving our country. I’m sure he was proud.

Thank you.

I used the example of Obama off the top of my head. But the point remains, when there is a shooting politicians and the media jump on the issue we see it after each tragic event. Why wouldn’t the murder by an illegal immigrant be politicized when everything else is?

And that’s just wrong too. Of all of us.

The dem talking points, which you just regurgitated, are disgusting and totally miss the point.

The point being that if we keep those people out of here the crime rate from them would be zero.

Totally preventable crime that could and should be prevented. Dems prefer sweeping it all under the rug. Disgusting. :-1:

Then why don’t we just kick out all criminals. Send them all to Venezuela. Then crime rate for all of us would be 0. Keep only those law abiding citizens. Only problem there is 90 % of Congress would have to go too.

Citizens have a right to be here. I would favor longer sentences however. Every crime committed by an illegal is a needless crime.

In cases of murder(by an illegal) a needless loss to a family. A hurt that never goes away.

It has nothing to do with Trump but rather preventing needless crimes such as murder against our citizenry.

Nah just get rid of them. Get convicted of a crime…and you lose your rights…you are no longer a citizen…0 crime…0 repeat crime. Take it that far if you want to be strong on crime…

Try to stay on point if you can. Would it be worth having illegals here if you lost a family member in the process?

No one is missing any point.
It is simply a lie to say it’s either Trump’s plan or you are for totally open borders.

It is a lie to say that this hasn’t been addressed because only Dems want to sweep it under the rug.

And it is totally inaccurate to use fear of the other to get people to buy in to what you want to do.

How about making your case for your ideas of border control without using fear and without telling lies?

Is that too much to ask?

I haven’t lied about anything. It has nothing to do with Trump or even politics.

It has to do with protecting citizens from needless crimes. How would you feel if one of your family was murdered by an illegal??

By the way, we are 71 posts in, and just as I predicted, not a peep out of those couple conservatives on these boards who in one of the other threads LAMBASTED everyone for “using the death of Mollie Tibbetts to score political points”.

Not a PEEP from that person lambasting GOP candidates’ plans to use Tibbetts in political commercials.

And they won’t ever step up, either. Book it.

You told a lie in your post where you blamed all our immigration issues on Dems.

That is a complete lie.

It is also a complete lie to claim they don’t want to protect people from crimes.

You do it without even thinking about it.

I didn’t use the word ALL. So who’s the liar here? :thinking:

Certainly the party is hindering any solution.

That’s a fact actually. They are against a wall and any other effective way of keeping illegals out.

No empathy at all from the party hierarchy.

Did you see what you just did?

They don’t agree with YOUR idea of immigration control…therefore they don’t believe in ANY immigration control.

You do it without even thinking.

How can you argue it any other way based on their policies?

Back to the question you refuse to even acknowledge much less answer.

If you lost a family member to illegals would that be ok with you?
