Betsy McCaughey, a surrogate for Donald Trumps presidential campaign, suggested World War II-style internment camps for Muslim refugees on Tuesday because she said that American women were being exposed to gang rapes.
Echoing a line from Trumps Monday speech on terrorism, McCaughey told CNN host Alisyn Camerota that Hillary Clinton appears to want to be the Angela Merkel of the United States bringing in over 600,000 refugees from Syria. Although Camerota pointed out that McCaugheys statement was not true, the Trump supporter ignored her and continued.
Let me tell you what the danger is, she said. Number one, rape. When you look at whats happening across Europe, women and young girls are being gang raped by Syrian and Muslim refugees who claimed it was because these women were scantily dressed.
Whats your source? Camerota wondered. Its in the European papers, gang rapes of women in Germany and Switzerland and Sweden, McCaughey insisted. Its well known there and well documented.
(In fact, the Swedish National Council for Crime Prevention victim survey shows that the number of sex crimes is virtually unchanged since 2005.

(1,474 posts)are now trying to push the concept of a Muslim-only rape culture?
I'm sorry, only Muslims and Hispanic people, to be precise.
In terms of progress, it is interesting that America's racists have learned not to accuse black people of being all rapists any more. But it's sad they've turned their blanket attacks on Muslims and Hispanic people.
