Trump Is Using Mollie Tibbetts For His Anti-Immigrant Agenda, And It’s Reprehensible
Huffington Post ^ | 08/23/2018 | Barbara Shelly

Posted on 08/24/2018 6:11:38 AM PDT by artichokegrower

Last month, I joined about 15,000 other cyclists in a weeklong bike ride across Iowa. We rode past cornfields and through small towns, which welcomed us with pork barbecue, slices of pie and all the trappings of a rolling state fair.

Every so often, alongside the lemonade stands or in people’s yards, I spotted posters. They featured the smiling face of a young woman named Mollie Tibbetts. She was missing, the posters said. Please call with information.

Tibbetts, a 20-year-old University of Iowa student, went out for a run on July 18 in her hometown of Brooklyn, Iowa, and never returned. A massive search was on. Her family held out hope she’d been kidnapped and would be found alive.

That is anti-ILLEGAL-IMMIGRANT.

No, it's ILLEGAL ALIEN.

The FBI has been hiding crime statistics rates collected on illegals. The FBI does this as a favor for democrats.

Tucker Carlson had the real numbers last night and it's shocking... It's NOT that illegals commit five or ten percent MORE crimes - it's more like 250% more crimes - AND the crimes are more violent ... and their murder rates are off the charts.

The corrupt FBI hides true crime statistics so democrats can import more illegals ...

I certainly hope that Barbara Shelly does her bike riding with others. IF she is out alone, she might find herself her very own illegal who wants to do HER harm.

Not sure this person should be let out into public without a babysitter.

Yeah, how twisted is that?

Then again, from the same crowd who have no problem whatsoever murdering babies in the womb.

Mollie who? Poor girl her murder reduced to political posturing by both sides. All I know is she would be alive if she had not met up with a man who decided her life had no value compared to what he wanted. Remove that man and she would still be alive.

Oh and tip to the Left. Women who say yes thinking somebody is “safe” get killed too. It is one reason the murder rate of prostitutes is higher than that of college students. She did not get killed because her murderer was a symbol of all men who don’t understand “no”. She was killed because she met a murderer.

I am sickened the way the left is trivializing Mollie Tibbets’ death. I believe is this is because she was not one of the leftist elites or one of their special interest groups. She was white, straight, lived in flyover country and could be seen as one of the deplorables clinging to their guns and religion. I don’t even want to see how the left portrays her church funeral.

Imagine how her death would have been reported had she been a militant lesbian, been active in the anti gun or abortion movement or have been other than white. Most troubling for the left is that Mollie was murdered and likely sexually assaulted by an illegal alien and her death could have been prevented by simply enforcing our immigration laws.

We rode past cornfields and through small towns, which welcomed us with pork barbecue, slices of pie and all the trappings of a rolling state fair.

But I could not eat any of it. I kept vomiting uncontrollably at the sights I saw. Some of those sights were churches with people going to them, people working hard at their jobs - people without a J.D. or MBA after their names, boys going into the boys bathroom and girls using the girls bathroom - exclusively, neighbors talking to one another. I even rode by a (urrrrrrp!) rifle range where older deplorables were teaching their young fascists to shoot automatic pistols and machine rifles. I was miserable the entire time, but now I know what the deepest pits of Hell look like. At the end of this god awful nightmare I returned happily to my upper west side condo and civilization!

Barbara Shelly is using the murder of an innocent young woman by an illegal alien who had fraudulently obtained employment in her community, as fodder for her Trump Derangement Syndrome. Reprehensibility fails to grasp the significance .......

If one looks at the birthrate in the US we do need immigration. We need the right people. The world is full of people that are the right people. We need people with skills and education that want to assimilate in our American culture. It is that damn simple. Open our borders to the people we need and exclude those that can harm us.

ps
I worked in the VA for years. We had many Indian doctors that were of great value. Oddly, they preserved their culture but at the same time joined the American culture. After two generations their kids and grand kids were just plain Americans. Assimilation works.

OMG, this is horrendous.

They are not only try to remove President Trump, they are not doing their job of protecting Americans!

Trump needs to destroy the FBI and start a new organization from scratch.

The seal-the-border crowd has drawn Tibbetts into its fold and is using her name and her tragic death to benefit its cause.

I have a feeling that Molly wouldn't mind. Why do you?
The repetition of the ghastly crime can only be avoided by looking where the animals are and how they find their victims.

Babs, where do you suggest the authorities look for clues to prevent future Mollys? Bank robbers?
