Lindsey Graham: "It's just a matter of time until somebody comes across that southern border & kills

[dutch777]

a bunch of Americans because they are a terrorist." Yeah, Lindsey. And it will be even less time before some undiagnosed, unhinged young male who can all too easily get military grade weapons and all the ammo he wants will drive up to a school or church or major public event and kill a bunch of Americans. Just a suggestion Lindsey, do the math on number of Americans killed, injured or traumatized as a result of a misguided reading of the 2nd Amendment vs. those killed by foreign terrorists. Just for once, it would be nice to get your facts and the priorities straight you slimy groveling wingnut!

[LonePirate]

1. How does that differ from home grown Americans who routinely kill a bunch of other Americans?

[Rebl2]

11. Exactly!

Or they may be plotting to kill people in clubs, churches, schools they don’t like, or shoot up electrical sub stations. These are Americans, not people coming across the boarder doing this.

[LonePirate]

25. The American political media is pathetic when it comes to questioning/interviewing elected officials

[dutch777]

77. So true! They need to learn to use the word "lie" when it applies.

[Caliman73]

39. The skin color is basically the difference and what is important to right wingers.

The same reason they decry "urban" violence but tend to isolate the young White mass murderers as "misunderstood, poor young men." People coming across the Southern border are "other" and therefore scary to Conservatives. They are to be hated, while White Supremacists are to be "understood" and worthy of redemption.

[uponit7771]

65. +1,

[Crowman2009]

80. Someone should ask the Lindseed Graham cracker if it's okay if white folk are the ones...

... doing the killing.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

2. Republicans like Lindsey Graham know how to do is prey on the emotions of the vulnerable.

To get attention and spread fear.

Go suck an egg, Lindsey!

[Skittles]

58. more like preying on the emotions of the racist

those same folk think homegrown mass shootings are just SOP

[BOSSHOG]

61. Fortunately

Ha and his fellow travelers also know how to piss off and activate the good amongst us. Like you and me teammate. Ya know, members of the majority.

[Greybnk48]

3. Hey Lindsey! 104 people were shot dead in Florida in the month of November!

What's up with that?

[Handler]

4. Well said and accurate

[tavernier]

5. Oh STFU Lindsey.

You have 13 sides to your mouth and each one spews something different, all depending on whose butt you need to kiss.

[SouthernDem4ever]

72. +1000

[ck4829]

6. Salvador Ramos didn't cross a border

This is my neighborhood and these mother fuckers came from all over the state and from as far away
as N. Carolina too.

[LuckyLib]

70. If I saw these guys in my neighborhood I would completely freak out.

I wouldn't know what to do. Call every law enforcement agency you can find? This is home-grown terrorism.

[dutch777]

79. Seems an overreaction to getting whopped across the face with a feather boa!

[iluvtennis]

8. Spot on @dutch777. n/t

[niyad]

9. The murdering thug who killed 5 and wounded 17 at Club Q two weeks ago is

a homegrown white man.

Explain that, leningrad lindsey. By the way, ll, aldrich has just been charged with hate crimes.

[GoCubsGo]

10. But, who cares about the ones who have been here all along,

and who have been killing people left and right, eh Lindsey? Fuck you, you pitiful excuse of a human being.

[Cuthbert Allgood]

12. The part of all this that bothers me the most is that a good number of people

fall for this boogie man bullshit. How are people so stupid that they fall for this obvious ploy to attack the security level of Maslow's hierarchy? I mean it's obvious troll is obvious time and people just lap it up.

[dutch777]

81. Based on peoples' voting, it seems about 50% of the population is this gullible/ignorant

to but into this BS

[rickford66]

13. And if that happens, they will want a huge wall at the spot where they entered.

GOP is the part of band-aids.

[judesedit]

14. Seems to me that it's the other countries that have to worry an American will cross their border and

kill a bunch of their citizens. As usual Graham crackers is ass backwards.

[momta]

36. Indeed.

We've had serious conversations in our house about moving to Mexico to get away from all of the senseless gun violence. We're not gonna do it, but the fact that the argument makes sense is fucking terrifying.

[judesedit]

53. Me, too

[live love laugh]

15. NOT a "matter of time" for those north of the border.

[colorado_ufo]

16. Get his facts straight?

He can't even get his pronouns straight: "they are a terrorist."

[BradBo]

17. Why would they bother.

I’m sure their saying it creates more jobs for them as we kill ourselves.

[packman]

18. Illegal Terrosist?-We don't need no stinkin' Illegal terrorist

We got our own 100% American bred, pure bred terrorist right here in the good ole' US or A.

[quakerboy]

19. He's probably not wrong

Perhaps if we had an orderly system that brought immigrants into the country without penalizing them for existing, we could process folks through in an organized fashion, screen them, reduce the flow of extra legal immigration to a point our border control resources could actually catch the remaining tiny portion of problem cases.

[whathehell]

29. He is wrong..

Clearly, we have more threats in the form of homegrown mass shooters than from "borders" anywhere.

[agingdem]

45. Yes Lindsey is wrong..

I live on the border, El Paso...I have for most of my 74 years...I-10 straddles the Rio Grande.. those so called "hordes of marauding migrants" are, in fact, poor desperate people determined to give their families a better life..they do not brave the Rio Grande and hide from the gun carrying La Migra to turn our children into drug mules and rape our daughters...

to quote both Oliver Perry and Pogo.."We have met the enemy and the enemy is us"..and the "us" is Trump, a depraved cruel vengeful amoral narcissistic megalomaniac and his hate filled gutter scum MAGA followers...so Lindsey can do his damndest to bogeyman "the border" and deflect our attention from the treasonous Trump shit show and his brain dead henchmen of hate.. but the real bogeymen are here and living among us...

[whathehell]

52. Yes he is, and thank you

for sharing your personal experience.

[mjvpi]

57. Exactly. Great post. Would I be brave enough to do what these people are doing?

[quakerboy]

74. The two are not exclusive.

We have a ton of domestic terrorists.

And the Republicans and their hate and bile have created a situation at the border where people desperate for a better life, a little safety, are forced to suffer in camps or cross into the country extralegally. Which means the republicans have created a situation where the cartels and other bad actors can use the desperate seekers of a better life as cover to do their various businesses. Republican border hate policies have lead to violent events and will lead to more in the future.

[whathehell]

83. I don't believe I said they were..

[onecaliberal]

21. Someone doesn't need to cross the border to be a murdering psycho. We have republicans here now

Mass shootings on the daily. Put your dog whistle down and fuck off already.

[AllaN01Bear]

22. we already did mr stoopid , and it wasnt a brownskined person it was a canadian.

[certainot]

23. for 35 years team limbaugh on 1500 radio stations have been selling this shit. POS graham and

trump and all republicans have gotten elected based on amped up anti-immigration racism and hate and fear and used variations of 'replacement theory' to sell voter suppression legislation.

every time an immigrant commits a crime or drives drunk the local radio stations make it a topic for conversation, repeating the foreign names, while at the same time making excuses for and ignoring mass shootings so the NRA and assault weapons are safe.

[Duppers]

34. Yep. 👍

[TexasBushwhacker]

24. Let's not forget men who kill women they've impregnated

All home grown American citizens! Not to mention, the last major terrorist event that I recall by non-citizen, non-white people was on September 11, 2001!

[Bernardo de La Paz]

26. 9/11 terrorists did not come across the southern border. . . nt

[KS Toronado]

27. That's all reQublicOns talk about is the southern border

I'm shocked they haven't tied the southern border to the electric power substations being shot up
in North Carolina. But then the day is young.

[vanlassie]

28. Do you ever wonder who hurt Lindsey?

Yea, me neither. But he sure is a damaged human being. Just pitiful.

[ChessyCat]

32. This SC Dem thinks Lindsey

Damaged himself by hiding in the closet so long. When is left is closet in DC and people started to talk, Lindsey tries to jump back in the closet instead of owning it. Pretending to be something you are not is damaging. IMHO anyway!

[IronLionZion]

30. Americans kill Americans in mass shootings on a daily basis

but they get excuses of course. Mental illness. Price of free dumb. Buy more guns, etc.

GOP want people to fear some made up hypothetical threat instead of what has been happening repeatedly.

[Kennah]

31. Or take a rifle, shoot up a power station, and kill some old people in the dead of winter

[republianmushroom]

33. Open your eyes Lindsey

Well Lindsey those terrorist that you speak of don't have to cross a border they are a lot of good old home grown terrorist right here.
The kooks and nut of the republican party.

[LiberalFighter]

35. He should go to the southern border and protect us.

[onetexan]

37. A buncha Americans kill other Americans quite often nowadays, with semiautomatics Lindsey.

Why are you worried about madeup terrorists you're envisioning in your pathetic head?

[twodogsbarking]

38. Canadian fear.

[eggplant]

40. And only eight days from the 10th anniverary of Sandy Hook.

Nice, Lindsey.

[BradAllison]

41. Funny how right wingers kill people every day

And Lindsay Graham doesn't give a fuck

[calimary]

42. I'm sorry - but there's very little about Lindsey Graham that is not disgraceful.

Who the hell sees fit to vote for a zero like him?

I guess a lot of fellow zeroes who see him as one of them.

[Warpy]

43. Oh, shut the fuck up, you ignorant, backwoods coward

I live in a border state, a REAL ONE, and I can tell you 99.99% of people who cross, documented or not, are nice people who want to work hard, pay their taxes, and succeed. That other .01% are the "narcoterrorist" types, created by YOUR WAR ON DRUGS and even they aren't interested in anything but expanding their retail territory just like any other predatory corporation YOU support.

So fuck off and die, you fascist pinhead, and stop selling scare stories because the only people who ever buy them are ignorant saps who live in states far, far away from any international border who wouldn't know a drug thug from an ordinary person and can't read well enough to know that mass murders have been done by white men who LOOK LIKE YOU and share your US Pedigree and who kill brown people who have lived here since the 1500s because of people like YOU spreading your evil, stinking, fascist, racist lies.

So, Lindsay, do all of us here on the border with friends and family who don't happen to look as ugly as you are a favor and drop dead, already, be carried off at long last by your meanness and spite, realizing on your death bed that it was all for nothing because death, at last, is the great equalizer and that black and brown people are outliving you.

Just go get bitten by a rattlesnake in some church, already, while you're whoring for votes by pretending you're some kind of Christian. Or skid down the Capitol steps on your wallet, your only vulnerable part. Or look in the mirror to shave and realize what you are and die of shame. I don't care. Just go away, sink into silence, and stop poisoning those poor ignorant halfwits who keep voting for you.

(Sorry, he's just done too much to piss me off, this has been coming for a long time)

[Laura PourMeADrink]

44. What? Out of the tens of millions of bad hombres no one killed anyone?

[lees1975]

46. But we have a long list of Americans who are already on this side of the border and who

have killed a bunch of Americans because they are terrorists.

I think we have better odds across the border.

[Martin68]

47. Meanwhile, Republican white supremacists and Christian nationalists are killing cops and citizens.

[TigressDem]

48. WHY? Who did you hire, Lindsey?

[eppur_se_muova]

49. By which time how many young black men will have been shot to death by cops ?

Shouldn't we be more concerned about stuff that's already happening all too often, rather than hypotheticals that could happen "any day now" ??

[Behind the Aegis]

50. Always possible.

However, it is much more prudent to act on the HOMEGROWN terrorists constantly in the news, the ones ACTUALLY killing Americans on a DAILY basis! His race-baiting "panic" is old hat for him and the party he represents.

[Mr.Bill]

51. The guy who came to Nancy Pelosi's house to kill her

came from the northern border.

[lame54]

54. Broken record

[kimmylavin]

55. Is he worried they're going to come here and take that job from Americans?

Jesus, how could he say something so stupid?!

[LakeArenal]

56. I suppose someone said this but:

It’s just a matter of time before some citizen walks into a school and shoots kids.

That, Lindsey, is what most of us think will happen before a migrant shooting.

Where are migrants allegedly finding these guns?

[AllyCat]

59. FU Lindsey. White male Americans do this EVERY DAY here in the US

[uponit7771]

66. +1,

[tenderfoot]

60. You mean someone south of the Mason-Dixon line?

Sounds totally plausible.

[keithbvadu2]

62. Lindsey, why are you republicans letting them in? Trump said his wall is completed.

Lindsey, why are you republicans letting them in?

Trump said his wall is completed.

[Iris]

63. Yikes! I was reading "border" as Mason-Dixon Line

[Retrograde]

64. Back last May

a young White man decided to drive 200 miles within his own state just so he could find some Black people to kill. In a supermarket. Mostly elderly people, at that.

We don't need to import murderers - there are plenty native-born ones more than willing to do the dirty.

[Xipe Totec]

67. It's just a matter of time until Lindsay says something stupid.

Ooops! Too late.

[DemocraticPatriot]

68. "It's just a matter of time until somebody comes across that southern border & kills----"

Lindsey Graham ???

[DemocraticPatriot]

69. Maybe they won't even cross the border to do it....

[Blue Owl]

71. Hey Lindsey, doesn't Herschel need some chaperoning?

Get the fuck out of here….

[liberal N proud]

73. Proving he truly is a racist pig

The republicans want to push fear and hate for certain people.
It all they have ever had is fear and hate!

[Emile]

75. So Lindsey is admitting Trump's border wall is not working!

[Celerity]

76. fuck off Graham, you fucking PODS

[cstanleytech]

78. Graham is simply pulling the "terrorist" card out as he knows his party has zero interest in

acknowledging the truth which is that the Republican party owns the lions share of blame over the number of deaths that have been caused by Americans killing Americans due to gun violence over the past 50+ years.

[Emile]

82. Why didn't republicans do something about the border when they

controlled all three branches?

[Mad_Machine76]

84. Any.....day.....now

meanwhile, domestic terrorists are already killing people in this country and they don't care because they hate the same people.
