REPORTER:You’re married to an immigrant that is a nationalized U.S. citizen. If someone were to say to her she should go back to her country as a criticism of federal policies, wouldn’t you consider that a racist attack?

Would you ever use the words go back to where you came from?

(truth be told...)

If she was a hateful, foul-mouthed, anti-American I’d buy the ticket, pack her bags, and drive her to the airport.

The correct response to "GOTCHA" 'journalism' is, 'that's a clown question. I don't answer clown questions'.

The Orange Orangutan is racist. There is nothing else.

My reply would have been:

“I’d punch anyone who said that to my wife right in the snot locker. Having said that, no, I don’t believe it was a racist comment. I think he is frustrated with what the left is pushing in this country and he’s not alone. What happened to, “America, Love it or Leave it? That wasn’t so bad back in the day and it was something all Americans could understand whether you were born here or naturalized. Shoot, I’d have to imagine some illegals even believed it. After all, they took a pretty good chance by breaking the law just to get here... and one other thing, F(ck you.”

If someone moves to a new place then proceeds to constantly piss and most about it spewing all sorts of hateful comments about its people then telling them that if they’re that unhappy with it they should leave is not at all the same thing as telling every immigrant they should go back to where they came from. The Left/MSM completely ignores Omar’s behavior.

His wife doesn’t slime this country, lie about law enforcement and laugh at terrorism. If she did, she should be told to leave, fix the country of origin and then she would be in a better position to tell us how to “fix” America.

BTW, the same with Brit, Aissies, French and many others. Nothing racist about it.

Say what you want Reporter, but if it insults my wife I may punch you in the nose.

“This is just like assigning the race card to the citizenship question of the census. If that’s racist, then why aren’t the questions about ethnicity struck from the census? These questions are intrinsically more racist than attempting to discern citizenship.”

I really hadn’t thought of that. It’s really a good idea. Wish there was some group who would file a lawsuit, like the ones against the citizenship question, to remove any questions about or indications of ethnicity. I’m sure the Dem/Lib/socialists would scream about those being removed was “racist” too.

Ya really can’t win with them, but I sure wish someone would file a lawsuit about it. Just so we could get more popcorn and watch.
