Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor.

MODERATORS
I have used this image under a Republican headline [ 4 ] times.
She not only thinks this, but took the time to plan this out. At no point while thinking about shooting immigrants, or building a dummy to represent an immigrant, or taping its arms and legs, or putting it in a chair, or loading the gun, or setting up a tripod to film it, or pulling the trigger, or loading it to a computer to edit it, or uploading it, did she think maybe this is a bit much.
Disgusting human trash.
What are the chances that one of the motivations for these people is profit. ? I mean, seriously. Is there profit potential here for these creators whose content goes viral, or does it only satisfy their sadistic blood lust ? Misanthropy of the highest, or direct connection to the cult?

You want to watch people die... like the watching part is important to you?
If you want people dead, I'm already not on board. The watching part makes it clear there's not hope of reasoning with them.
I think they want to be the shooter. Blood lust. The kind of thing you'd hope a good background check before a gun purchase would catch.
I wonder what would happen to someone who did a video like that except with a dummy of a CEO? I suspect the reaction would be huge amounts of screaming, condemnation, and an arrest for promoting terrorism. But this video? it's juuuust fine. Nothing will happen to her, probably not even having her video taken down.
Wtf is up with these Hispanic nazis?
two major things to keep in mind
a) majority of hispanics in the US have been there multiple generations. while they may hold some varying level of ties to their family's home country, they've more or less been mostly americanized and are effectively just a different flavor of "american"
add in the fact that these are a more socially conservative people who more likely to be religious and it makes sense why they have been moving to the right. GOP could have taken advantage of this a long time ago. I think it's strange that Trump is the one to finally harness this group of people, but I guess reality is stranger than fiction
b) the US isn't stupid and it imports right-wing anti-left people. For example from Cuba or Venezuela. Miami has a massive Cuban population and they're all descendants from people fleeing the communist Castro regime. The Cubans are bred from birth to believe the Castro regime was evil and they're told all about the horrors (conveniently nobody remembers the just as brutal Batista regime, coincidentally supported by the US).
So all it takes is for there to be a connection between "democrats -> left wing -> communist" and all the Cubans turn against the DNC.
what I find fascinating is that you talk to a young Cuban who is one or two generations separated from Cuba, they have all sorts of horror stories and hatred for the Castro regime.
But you talk to an old-timer, someone in their 60s or 70s and they have nostalgia and nuanced views. Sort of like how people view the Soviet Union.
If we're gonna summarize all of this I'd just say this- assimilation. We're watching the process of how Irish went from "ethnic minority" to "white" and hispanics are going through a similar process

She’s one of the people Trump would deport just because of her name anyway
Sounds like terrorism to me
We didn’t kill enough slavers or Nazis
There's still time.
Luckily she's never been elected to anything so far.
She's a Colombian immigrant herself apparently and still has the accent so I'm not sure the racist crowd she's appealing to with this message is going to rally behind her as opposed to whatever other Republican is running.

If I do this but it’s the CEO of a health insurance company, then I’ll get sued out the wazoo.
Y'all Qaeda at it again.
Shouldn't the headline be "Republican said something terrible to get the media talking about her, and we've done exactly what she wanted"?
How about televised executions of politicians that do not do their elected jobs
I'm thinking televised executions of insurance CEOs that do do their jobs

I agree that Americans need to shoot more people, we just disagree on who.
Texas? Everything I could find says Missouri. Is there more than one crazy Republican politician named Valentina Gomez, or did she move to Texas after losing in Missouri?
I believe I had read that after losing in Missouri she decided to try in Texas.
a quick search confirms this.
huff post for example.
I'm sure there's plenty of other republicans saying this, just not quite so... publicly...
NGL, that's a good looking meme setup.
Would be a shame if someone happen to put words like Luigi or healthcare CEO. Not saying what order though.
How long until we find out that she or her family members are here illegally?
More distractions
Yes and no. The monsters are using migrants as a scapegoat to distract from the outright theft that's about to ramp up.
But the thing about a scapegoat, they're still killed.
When a monster tells you what they want to do, believe them.
JFC. What a horrible person.
Yeah when they said the "camps" thing, I knew it wouldn't be too long before we actually heard this.
Need to see a Venn diagram of the commonalities between ISIS and republicans.
It's one solid circle.
She hopes by showing her ass that the whites won't spend her as a token.
But they will.
Dumb fascist cunt.
So if someone replicated the video but had "CEO" written on the hood it would be terrorism?

When even the Department Of Justice publishes reports that more severe punishments, explicitly including death sentences, don't work for deterrence (see points 4 and 5 of their summary), people really should start thinking about better ways to prevent crime.
(Personally, I'd propose tackling the conditions that force crimes, particularly those of desperation, as well as reevaluating the catalogue of what really counts as crimes, particularly if there's no victim, but on here, I'd be preaching to the choir.)

Exodus 20:13. I know they don’t care about their own book, but it’s terrible how far so many people have drifted from our sacred connections between humans, whatever that means to you. Killing one another cannot solve our problems.
Are we talking about her? Who got 6th in the elections ? who even has this photo?
I just can't stop laughing.
this is from the same types who would have political ads shooting their opponents yeah?
