Texas Land Commissioner Dawn Buckingham pledged to support "the largest deportation of violent criminals in the nation's history."

Summary

Texas Land Commissioner Dawn Buckingham offered President-elect Donald Trump a 1,402-acre ranch for deportation facilities.

The ranch, near the Rio Grande, is strategically located and has been previously used for agricultural purposes.

Despite claims of immigrants committing crimes at higher rates, data shows they commit crimes at lower rates than the U.S.-born population.

    Yup! What’s extra “funny” is that the federal government will probably foot the bill and thus these dirty immigrants will cost the regular Joe exorbitantly more - both in lost contribution to the economy and taxes but also in fees for being detained - than they would have if they would leave them the fuck alone. It better yet give them a realistic path to citizenship.

    Right wingers are either fucking dumb as shit or 100% morally depraved. It makes my blood boil to the point that I cannot follow the news. And I ain’t even living in the US. Just pisses me off to no end still how absolutely heartless and fucked people can be.

        No. This is malice. This is hate. This is what evil looks like. We know what this leads to. Stupidity here is willing and unacceptable.

        No. I’m not buying that anymore. People know goddamn well that their actions hurt others. They just choose to ignore it, be it due to their greed, fear, insecurities, or whatever. But all those fuckers voting for extreme right wing policies are not stupid. Some might be gullible and buy into whatever bullshit claims that feed their fear. But they still look at others and their suffering, and decide to say “fuck you, I deserve what I believe is mine”. That’s not being stupid, that’s being a fucking cancer to society.
