Robocalls and graffiti after Mollie Tibbetts' death worry Iowa Latinos
cnn ^ | Sept. 1, 2018 | Artemis Moshtaghian

The paint on the road near a predominantly Latino community near Des Moines read, "Deport Illegals." The sprayed-on sentiment didn't last the day, but some officials in the Iowa city are worried it's indicative of a simmering resentment for immigrants that has become more public recently. The red paint defaced both directions on a two-lane road on the city's south side on Thursday. "These actions are unfortunate and not consistent with Des Moines' spirit of compassion," Mayor Frank Cownie said. "Such actions have no place in our city." A city worker painted over the words later in the day. The city tweeted a photo of the graffiti removal, with the hashtag #NotInOurCity.

Sounds like freedom of speech...which they don’t approve of either.

Jakiw Palij is not German. Polish/Ukranian. That’s why Germany didn’t want to take him.

The paint on the road near Des Moines read, "Jail bank robbers!" Some officials in the Iowa city are worried it's indicative of a simmering resentment against people who make bank withdrawals. "These actions are unfortunate and not consistent with Des Moines' spirit of compassion," Mayor Frank Cownie said. "Such actions have no place in our city."

See how ridiculous that is?

Local women say he has been stalking women for YEARS.

They might want to start looking into other unsolved deaths and disappearances nearby.

Not just Democrats, Rubio, Graham, McCain, Hatch, Hoeven, Heller, Murkowsky, Alexander, Corker, Faqlke all voted to give illegal aliens amnesty, including the man who killed Mollie.

gang graffiti stays for years.....


Bravo for saying that.
The ugly graffiti to apparently mark territory for gang regions stays for a long time. Often the business owner or home owner is forced to pay for the removal!!

Dogs mark their territory by lifting a leg and urinating. I think the ethnic groups in these gangs feel that need but use spray paints.

Still: obliterate this and paint over it.

I went form morning with my dog and took a detour to the local flea market.

I was wearing my ‘ The best part of waking up is Donal Trump is President’ shirt with my MAGA hat. This place is 50% country and 50% latino. I am fluent in SPanish, so I could hear their comments. I would turn around and respond - Cual es tu problema? Followed by a long stare or until they realized I was not putting up with their cr@ap.

The country folk just responded - That’s a pretty dog you have. In all honesty - she is pretty - a 6 year old Catahoula. She is a mix of a lab and a Australian Shepard. White socks and a star on her right shoulder.

I am done hiding and putting up with criminal aliens!

There are plenty of them here in the Boston area-—and they have been here for years.

illegals not Latinos....


True. Only the criminals need fear anything. No one would deport a Latino with valid legal immigration status and ID.

Another point: ethnic groups vary but Latinos and Muslims tend to have close ties to their fellow group members. Often a mention of Muslims in Dearborn,MI (largest Arab population outside the Middle East anywhere in the world) brings a lot of comment from store owners and restaurant staff and others who know the person and know where they are now.

For decades this has not been true of Irish,German or other people. It once was, though.

My point: like a certain group in urban areas with their “no snitch rule,” we have to get the Latinos to admit they know who committed a violent crime and where they are now. They usually know but don’t want to say.

When they cover up then others get mad at all of them, even the innocent.

True. I've noted this also.

If the Latinos or whoever has not broken any laws, they have nothing to fear.

It said deport illegals not Latinos. What do people here legally have to fear?

This - in a nutshell - encapsulates the message from those of us who want our immigration laws enforced.

Of course, there is no benefit to the fear-mongering media in drawing a clear distinction between legal and illegal immigrants. Using the catchall term "immigrant" lumps everyone int a single category. If you are anti-illegal immigration then you are "anti-immigrant".

Interesting that the media automatically assumes that all "Latinos" are illegal aliens or that all Latinos are in favor of illegal immigration. Who are the "racists" again?

Here is how you win in the Midwest. You logically explain to voters they have been lied to for decades. The DNC really doesn't care what Iowa thinks...they are just a tool to driving their radical agenda. ....and the GOP-e uses robo-calls..... hang up
