Jeff Sessions: Wall at Democratic National Convention a double standard
al.com ^ | June 10 2016 | Howard Koplowitz

Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., accused presumptive Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton and the Democratic National Committee of applying a double standard by planning to construct fencing around this summer's Democratic convention.

"It's interesting that the Democratic National Committee will have a wall around their convention to keep unapproved people out while at the same time, their presumptive nominee, Hillary Clinton, pushes for open borders policies that are even more radical than President Obama's," Alabama's junior senator said in astatement. "She would refuse to deport dangerous criminal aliens until after they have been convicted of committing heinous crimes against Americans, close detention centers, issue even more extreme executive orders than Obama, and increase Syrian refugees five-fold. Her proposed policies make no sense, decimate the rule of law, further reduce wages for poor Americans, and increase the risk of terrorism and criminal behavior."

The Secret Service agent in charge of security at the convention in Philadelphia told NBC Philadelphia that plans include "no-scale fencing" at the Wells Fargo Center -- the convention site -- and XFinity Live! -- an adjacent dining and entertainment complex.

“Security is a necessity in this increasingly dangerous world. Clinton and the DNC don't hesitate to use walls and guns for protecting themselves and their elite friends," the senator said. "I say it's time to provide such protection to the at-risk people like Kate Steinle [who was killed by an illegal immigrant in California], and Clinton not understanding this will lead to her defeat."

Is the wall an admission that Clinton's words incite violence?

Why weren’t your links active here? You obviously fixed something in the next post.

Hmm, weird little problem — ordinarily I’d say there’s somethin’ up with the character set pref in your browser (or in my case, in the 10 year old OS), but if that were true, your first attempt would have had everything on one line. Your second attempt appears to have had a NBSP at the end of the text string with the URL, that might cause the URL to not be recognized by the software here. Always make sure there are no trailing chars, that’s my best guess for now.

Using bare text links in the first message (when the topic is created) won’t work, that’s just part of the software here on FR, always been that way.
