MSNBC's Eddie Glaude debated with former Republican North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory over who should bear the blame for inspiring the recent mass shootings in the United States. Glaude argued Sunday on Meet the Press that terms such as "illegal immigrant" are divisive and fuel white nationalists to commit acts of violence."What happens when we use language like 'infestation,' ... children carrying perhaps disease across the border?" Glaude asked. "You set the stage for people who are even more on the extreme to act violently."

And what happens if we don't recognize and communicate the truth about a problem? Well, then we're the perfect Democrat, doing what we're told, living by talking points and Orwellian language.

Maybe the left's total lack of border security is making people feel helpless. But regardless, the question is what goes on with someone who decides this is the way to deal with their issues? Are they on drugs?

Well, they've got the talking points down, the narrative, and are sticking to them. Kind of makes you wonder if there is a conspiracy of sorts (tin foil hat time) for these mass murders to take place just so they can blame Trump, Republicans, Conservatives, the NRA, White males and any other politically incorrect beings among us.
For me, I blame planned parenthood. What kind of society do you end up with when for 50 years women are told they can kill their children? The kind of society we have today where violence, mass murders are becoming an everyday occurrence.

What else would you say it is? Illegal is illegal.
Immigrants can choose to enter our country legally or illegally. Legal is welcome, illegal is not. What is the problem understanding that?

Again: MISLEADING THE MASSES.
What is so difficult about understanding the term: I L L E G A L?
Trump, like Lincoln did, should shut down these non- news 'outlets' and those rabble rousing the weak to do destruction should go to PRISON.

All because Demonrats refuse to enforce immigration laws.

And I suppose that terms like "civil war" aren't likely to inspire anyone to do anything - right Eddie?
More leftist smoke and mirrors - obfuscate the real story with bizarre theories and their alternate reality.

Did the phrase illegal immigrant inspire mass shootings back when it was not only the accepted, but legal phrase????
Only someone that is mentally ill would A, commit a mass shooting but B: protest illegal immigrants by shooting up a predominantly white customer base.

You would have to be a complete “Kook” to believe anything that MSNBC is propagandizing on TV these days.

I do not condone what he did, but there is a rising ire about the government doing nothing to stop this literal invasion. The more poorly in control crack first.
If the law enforcement couldn't or wouldn't enforce the laws in the old west, vigilance committees formed to stop the criminals from running over the honest citizens. History can repeat itself if laws are not enforced.

Get it right kids. Illegal ALIENS, not immigrants. These people don't mean to ever be Americans, or to assimilate into our society. They are here to use up and dilute the social contract I had to sign 60 years ago, and then move on like the horde of locusts they really are.

Not so cold.
Seems like they are just aching for a civil war. That is a bad idea, very, very bad. The original Civil War was very bad, and another would be easily as bad, maybe worse.
