    With two words, the lead investigator in the death of Mollie Tibbetts, a 20-year-old Iowa college student, may have ratcheted up the debate over illegal immigration going into the last three months of the 2018 mid-term elections. https://usat.ly/2LfMLH4 pic.twitter.com/4hTPOCNSe0

        What should he have called him? A "dreamer" killed an innocent girl. A "person allegedly in the country by other than legal means" killed an innocent girl. HE WAS AN ILLEGAL ALIEN. PERIOD!

        The lead investigator is who ratcheted up the debate? Or was it the illegal alien that killed a young woman who ratcheted up the debate?

        I can give u a thousand more examples of white American born men who have shot people with thier sacred gun that they should have never had becuz they were nuts. But...we don’t care about that. Right?

        Yeah, we do care about that as well. There is definitely a problem with mental illness as well as illegal immigration. Both issues need addressed.

        As unpopular as Trump is, I like the fact he’s ratcheting up border security to keep murderers like this guy out of the country. Mollie would be alive if this guy wouldn’t have been allowed in the country. There are legal ways to enter this country, which should be followed.

        If you hire illegals you should be responsible for any of their crimes

        🤔 by that logic Trump should be responsible for the illegal actions that 5 of his former staff have been found guilty of. His prison sentence should equal theirs.

        As a father of 2 daughters, my ❤️ mourns for this young woman who has fallen victim to a senseless crime. But I don't find it ok to discuss immigration policy now, since it was always not the time to discuss gun policy after the 154 mass shootings this year. #MollieTibbets

        I don't think the story here is that it has a potential to hurt democrats The heartbreak of the Tibbett family must be immense- May Christ comfort them with His grace

        How do we stop white women (http://conchovalleyhomepage.com/news/video/iow …), white men (http://press-citizen.com/story/news/cri …) & soon-to-be-seniors (http://usnews.com/news/best-stat …) from murdering Iowans?

        Immigrants, documented or not, are less likely than natural citizens to commit violent crimes. Deporting them all would be less effective than deporting all gun owners.

        No that’s not what “ratcheted up” anything. The facts did that. Mollie was killed by someone who shouldn’t have been here. We need to fix that!
