Maybe he had sense enough to make the distinction, unlike the media.

In reading my initial response, I don’t think that was the sentiment I was trying to convey in the last sentence...what I meant was not that it was “worth it to them”.

What I mean was that they have to accept it as a consequence of their support. I doubt that they think it was “worth it”.

‘’people who were trying to get into our country’’. This makes my blood boil. ‘’Get into the country’’ as if , as I’ve always said,The United States of America is some kind of Motel 6 for the whole world. We are losing our sovereignty as a nation to hordes of illiterate , hostile Third World garbage and there is no end in sight. Even legal immigration should be halted. The hospital I work in has a medical staff that is at least 98% East Indian, Pakistani and Philippino. And all of them bring at least a dozen family members with them. ENOUGH!!

One would hope. As we know, the issue isn't generally "legal" immigration, it is "illegal" immigration.

The Left/Media both understand that distinction exactly but choose to DELIBERATELY conflate the two, because that shallowness in much of their target audience is to them, worthy of exploitation.

“Hated Trump”? Can you support that with a quote or link?

This jerk actively aided and abetted the invasion of the United States by illegals. These people are notorious for the mayhem they wreak on our highways . Many law abiding American citizens have been killed by these turds. That jerk got killed by one of the turds he so beloved is true delicious irony. In the most profound way the SJW betrayed his country and reaped a just reward. As I recall from Dante, traitors get sent to the lowest circle of hell. Nice thought about this jerk.

Please. He's not a turd.

The Soros powers-that-be may have exploited his naive compassion, but he was not a virtue-signaller or political operator who lived large on other people's money. He was a faithful, much-loved husband and father who stood up individually and paid up personally.

Political naivete is imprudent and can be dangerous, but it's not a crime of moral turpitude. It's the fault of a good man misled.

And now he's dead at 45, leaving a suffering widow and children twice-orphaned.

You don't mean to, but in that post you come off as one who doubles-down on the dead. No shining virtue in that.
