A Question for Trump Critics: What If Kathryn Steinle Had Been Black? (Jeffrey Lord)
American Spectator ^ | Jeffrey Lord

Posted on 07/06/2015 7:02:05 AM PDT by RoosterRedux

The murder of 32-year-old Kathryn Steinle at the hands of an illegal immigrant is outrageous.

Before we get to Donald Trump, let’s start there, shall we?

Steinle’s murder — in cold-blood, at random, and in broad daylight in San Francisco — is made even more despicable by the fact that her alleged murderer — identified by shocked passersby who caught the killer’s image on their cell phone — was quickly captured and revealed to be one Francisco Sanchez. Sanchez is a seven-times convicted felon and five-times deported illegal immigrant from Mexico.

And on top of that outrage? That would be the disgraceful performance of some Republican presidential candidates — shamefully playing the Latino race card for votes. Abandoning every last core value of the Lincoln/Reagan Republican Party and the conservative movement. And that’s before you get to those race-card playing businesses who have piously — slyly is a better word — jumped into the fray. The thought police are now out for blood — and a fate once reserved for bakers of cakes on gay marriage is now used to target a maker of empires over his opposition to illegal immigration. The Gestapo mindset spreads.

Question: What if the murdered Kathryn Steinle had been a young black woman? Instead of being a young white woman in San Francisco, what if the scenario changes? Let’s do just that.

Black lives only matter if they are killed by whites.

See Chicago.

I don’t understand the question. Folks would still be pretty outraged by the way this guy was handled.

If the young woman in SF had been black it still would have been an “act of love” by one of Jebster’s “aspirational youth”, bringing their superior fertility and dynamism to us.

It would have been somewhat of a temporary dilemma for the libs and Jeb Bush (but I repeat myself). But they would've swept it under the news cycle rug as they did with Miriam Carey. Anybody remember her?

Now, had she been a black male thug, it would have a real dilemma.

Read the story. The writer’s point is pretty clear.

yeah, that was one black life that did not seem to matter. That story was swept under the rug really fast.

Regarding the charges against Sanchez....Obama should be Charged for aiding and Abetting. Also charge Homeland”Security”.

Would have made little or no difference. Open borders and the refusal to enforce immigration law is more important to Uniparty aims than the lives of any typical US citizens.

Blacks have been victims of criminal illegals too.

Trump has won me over. I also support Cruz but I am looking at a Trump/Cruz ticket. I think that’s what we need right now.

I don't think so, the shooter wasn't a white guy. Now in the black community itself (not the bogus blacklivesmatter idiots) there might be a lot of anger because I believe there is more tension there between illegals and blacks than most people realize and all it would take would be one anti-immigrant black demagogue to light the whole place up.

Yeah folks are outraged daily at how illegal invaders are permitted to enter our Country without fear of any consequence. Even after being caught five times and after 7 felonies he’d been allowed to stay...in a sanctuary city.

That is madness and Trump is pointing it out and is not cowed by the pc media. The reason they’re upset with Trump is that he’s got the balls to call them out for the madness and not back down.

The purposeful failure to not enforce laws at the border and in the sanctuary cities is criminal.

For calling attention to that I thank Trump.

Trump appears to be an unintentional stalking horse for Cruz. He (Trump) is loudly proclaiming all the grass roots issues that Cruz has been running on.
