When are the Trump supporters finally going to grow the stones to publicly admit "Make America White Again" is really what they feel?

We have no way of vetting them as the state department has said and terrorist attacks have shown.

His plan is simply a temporary ban until we figure a way to properly vet people so they don't come here and do stuff like what happen in California.


It's against the constitution, you fool. Muslims are not the problem anyway, it's terrorists, and most of them aren't muslim. Also, most domestic terrorists attacks are done by American citizens.


Reported.

Don't you people on the Left ever get tired of the damn name calling? It gets old. Grow the F up!

And that is exactly the problem.

How can you say that Republicans are racist when they over and over have elected people of different ethnic backgrounds into prominent positions in their society. Take Louisiana for example, and Indian American, Bobby Jindal was elected governor. Another example of this is South Carolina, their have an African American senator, Tim Scott and Indian American female Governor, Nikki Haley. The most red and even stereotypical racist states have all their leaders being people of different ethnic backgrounds.

When we also label Trump supporters as racist what we do is bad. We alienate them and it sends a message that us in the democratic party do not care for them. Making them more likely to vote for Trump and less likely to vote for Hillary Clinton.

Look Ganondox I think Sly feels the way he does for a legitimate reason. In countries such as Germany where their are many refugees their have been violent crimes. And when I high up Federal department says their is no way to properly vet Muslims it serves an indication that we cannot tell who these people are that are visiting the country and what their intentions may be. If we just let them into the country people may be at risk.

It wasn't rude, it's true. Just look at all the silly things you've been posting. You're sucking his dick so hard you've neglected to breath and now you're all delirious. Have fun with that.

I'll admit that Trump pen is pretty cute though.

A couple of my family members voted for Trump because they watched hundreds of hours of FOX and listened to hundreds of hours of Michael Savage and Hannity.

These shows likely paint Hispanics and Muslims as dangerous, causing people to think, "non-white = dangerous".

So, a natural reaction for some is to want to be protected from non-whites.

If I got a dollar for every time you called someone asswipe I'd be rich. The alt rights "amnesia" as I shall call it is getting very old, very fast. I thought they hated "politically correctness" and loved to protest.

Leftys, liberals, Leftists, the Left!, the list goes on and on. :shrug:

I'm not condoning the persons behavior you reported though :)

@Mikah - Am I to believe there were no Jews or homosexuals who actually thought National Socialism didn't sound like a bad idea? As it turned out later, they were grossly misinformed as well as duped and gassed.

Do I believe that it could be democrats painting swastikas and "Seig Heil" all over churches? Absolutely.

Don't you think that, as POTUS, you have to be EXTREMELY CAREFUL of who you appoint to your cabinet? It's not like there's a handful of people who disagree with Bannon. National, well-organized, very respected organizations like the SPLC, the ADL and others think it's a bad idea, while White Nationalist groups coast to coast are salivating and drinking champagne like it's going out of style.

I wouldn't appoint Louis Farrakhan to a position in my cabinet. His rhetoric has been too divisive over the years. Even if I thought he'd straightened up and flown right, just his appointment alone would make people take to arms. And we're talking about POTUS here, not the president of Toy R Us or Xfinity.

Banning muslims is against the constitution, end of discussion. Banning immigration from particular countries is not, but so far it has not been a problem, again the domestic terrorists have pretty much all been US citizens. Regarding Germany, the problem with refugees has been a culture clash, not terrorism, a lot of it can be explained with not knowing the language and problems that arise from that. Finally, we already restrict the number of refugees we take in to ensure the threat is minimal.

Yeah end of. There's no way to amend a constitution ever.

Edit: besides there are ways around these things. The US skirted around the rules for treatment of prisoners after WW2 by designating Germans as disarmed enemy combatants or something. Where there's a will, there's a way...

Pardon me, but doesn't that statement sound a little racist? Answer this question for me - can there be "White Racism"?

No, I haven't. Name-calling is rude and there is no point to it. It doesn't help get a person's point across. That is not how real debate is done.

Yes I would say so. Not all Trump supporters are "white" and not all "white" people are Trump supporters. A better phrase would be "Make America Native Again". According to all the Trump supporters I know in person Nativism is what loosely joins them all together, though they probably wouldn't know the term or wouldn't use it.

Does "Make America White Again" sound racist? Sure it does, but I didn't come up with it.
