(17,578 posts)44. Trump Says Similar Things About Illegal Immigrants, and He Says He Is Not Being Racist
I guess we can collect your "studies" along with studies cited by Donald Trump to broadly characterize people by race and ethnicity. I can understand if you were commenting on ideology, i.e., Christians tend to believe in Jesus, etc. But to disparage people by race and ethnicity? But, like Donald Trump, if you cite a study, you believe it is okay.

"Somebody is doing the raping, Don, I mean, you know," Trump said. "Somebody's doing it."
"Who is doing the raping?" Trump asked.
DONALD TRUMP, GOP PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE: Well, if you look at the statistics of people, I didn't say Mexicans -- I said the illegal immigrants. If you look at the statistics on rape, on crime, on everything, coming in illegally into this country, they're mind-boggling. If you go to Fusion, you will see a story about 80% of the women coming in, you have to take a look at these stories. And you know who owns Fusion? Univision. It was in The Huffington Post. I said, let me get some of these articles because I've heard some horrible things. I do a lot of talking with people on the border patrol. They're incredible people. They help our country.
DON LEMON: But I want some clarification --
TRUMP: No, but Don, all you have to do is go to Fusion and pick up the stories on rape and it is unbelievable when you look at what is going on. So all I am doing is telling the truth.
