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

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.

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


As Black Lives Matter has been doing with the names of criminal thugs killed during the commission of crimes.

The left has been using her to say men are evil.

Thing is, when trump says the loss of Mollie is proof we need border security.

he is right.

Remember when feminists were against women being raped and murdered?

If it’s a factual part of the story, it’s a factual part of the story. And if the murder had been done with a gun, the left would be playing that up big time as well.

And when a child who has been mentally ill for quite a while shoots someone, the left hides his school records and blames the second amendment.

It’s an “anti-criminal” agenda.
The President is supportive of law enforcement.
The tragic and totally preventable death of this young woman is a valid topic for the debate over why we need our existing laws enforced.

100% of murders by illegals are committed by illegals.

They wouldn’t have been committed otherwise.

The murderer wasn’t just another “immigrant”. He was an ILLEGAL ALIEN.

The media is using children in cages from Obamaland circa 2014, to push Dreamer agenda and it’s reprehensible.

That is anti-ILLEGAL-IMMIGRANT. The twisted left always forgets the word ILLEGAL!!!

The death of Tibbetts should be flagged everywhere. She is not the only one who has lost her life to illegal scum IN THIS COUNTRY.

Build the wall. Throw out the illegals. Then make them enter LEGALLY. Get rid of DEMOCRAT sanctuary crime against REAL American citizens.

Or as happened at Charlottesville, you know, where one side had a permitted and Constitutional right to assembly and air grievances

and you bastards sought to deny that, caused conflict, and then when someone took the day off from work and got in the way, you all went nuts

And then there’s politicizing that Parkland thing. You know, when your Dem Sheriff and politicized fbi FAILED TO DO ANYTHING

Yeah, that politicization

I think what they are saying is that Trump shouldn’t be using a supporter of illegal immigration in his anti illegal immigration comments.

But what this administration repeatedly fails to mention is that multiple studies have shown they are much less likely to commit crimes than native-born Americans.

But what liberals repeatedly fail to mention is that LEGAL IMMIGRANTS were the ones in that study and not ILLEGAL ALIENS, who are much more likely to commit crimes and take up a large percentage of our prison population.

And using a small scared child superimposed next to the President isn’t? Hypocrisy is alive and well in the left.

Their main weapon is EMOTION. So what they are really upset about is someone has borrowed their playbook.

My, how times have changed.

A feminist complaining that America cannot seek to punish a man who abducted, raped and brutally murdered a young woman.

So now, feminists sanguinely permit young women to be fair game for kidnappers, rapists, murderers?

Who knew?
