And here’s something else that bothers me about the Right politicizing Mollie’s death.
We would not give her a second thought if an average American killed her. Or even a teen.
But because an illegal killed her? Well, we get on our high horse and holler real loud. Despite the fact she leaned left.
I think of Rachel Corrie. She too was a dumb kid. But did she deserve to die?
Many many FReepers would say yes. Yes, she deserved to die. And so we laugh at her. Make pancake jokes and so on.
Both Mollie and Rachel died a senseless and tragic death. But it seems to be to our political advantage to laugh at Rachel and mourn Mollie.
Just my $0.02.
Rachel death was because of her actions
Molies death was preventable if any action was being taken to fix our broken illegal immigration system any time in the last 30 years
Absurdly nonsensical attempt to draw a fake moral equivalence on your part.
"...Rachel Corrie and Mollie Tibbetts..."
You are right. She (dead white girl) is theirs. She wanted to be one of them. And she is.
Its all about love. She hated white people so much, she was willing to die at the hands of an illegal. The left is propping up her ravaged dead white girl body. It is really a beautiful story. About love.
They can have her. The right really has no business even mentioning the dead white girl. Really.
Playing tug of war with a dead white girl as the rope is stupid.
Let’s be honest: every single person who wasn’t involved with the situation in some way, and who says or said they “care” about the well-being of the victim, is virtue signaling. A person can’t meaningfully care about someone they have no relationship with.
So everybody’s pretending to care but nobody’s fooled because the target of the attempts to deceive are also attempting to deceive others in the same way.
