Liberal largess kills claims more lives.
Eight people were killed yesterday in New York City.
Five Argentine nationals and a Belgian were among those killed when a man plowed into pedestrians and cyclists on a bike path in New York City, authorities said Tuesday.Saipov is said to have acted on behalf of ISIS. How Saipov, who is from Uzbekistan, get to the US?CBS News identified the suspect as Sayfullo Habibullaevic Saipov, who once worked as an Uber driver. Police shot the suspect after he exited the vehicle and shouted "Allahu Akbar" which means "God is great" in Arabic. He is currently in police custody and officials said they are investigating the incident as an act of terror.
He came here via a program courtesy of one liberal Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY):
The suspected foreign national terrorist behind the New York City attack that has left at least eight individuals dead came to the United States years ago through the Diversity Visa Lottery, a program that President Trump and pro-American immigration reformers have demanded an end to. According to ABC New York, 29-year-old Sayfullo Saipov — the man who allegedly mowed down pedestrians in the Tribeca neighborhood of New York City — entered the U.S. in 2010 from Uzbekistan under the Diversity Visa Lottery before obtaining a Green Card.Donald Trump wants to end the program. John McCain does not. The program adds nothing to the US:The Diversity Visa Lottery gives out 50,000 visas every year to foreign nationals from a multitude of countries, including those with known terrorist problems – such as Afghanistan, Algeria, Egypt, Iraq, Lebanon, Libya, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Syria, Trinidad and Tobago, Venezuela, Yemen, and Uzbekistan.
As Breitbart News reported, the elimination of the Diversity Visa Lottery was supported by Civil Rights icon Barbara Jordan, whose 1995 immigration subcommittee found that the program did not serve the national interest of the American people.That liberal NY TImes idiot Nicholas Kristof immediately seized on the event to score some cheap points:
Nicholas Kristof ✔@NickKristof The NYC terrorist had a pellet gun and a paintball gun. Good thing that in NYC he couldn't buy assault rifles, or the toll would be higher. 4:07 PM - Oct 31, 2017
Here's a better question, Nick- what would the death toll be had this cretin not been allowed into the country?
ZERO.

Those eight dead and eleven horrifically injured are just the price that needs to be paid for more Democrat voters.
Good thing Nicholas Kristof doesn’t use sane logic, or he wouldn’t work for the NYT.
Diversity Visa Program is administered by State Dept.
Cough
He also had a commercial license...
And here the initial reports were that it was simply “road rage”, assuredly not terror.
And the sewer grates will open and the lawyers will be falling all over themselves to defend this guy; maybe get Schumer to defend as well?
Schumer and Flake and McCain were behind this horrible law, why am I not surprised?
PING
Add in each and every congresscritter who voted for this bill and every other immigration bill.
The immigration policy launched in 1965 is fundamentally anti-American. That needs to be understood, and not disguised by the rhetoric of the Chuck Schumers.
The now despised here Mark Levin was the first to bring this up.
That may very well be, but that's really beside the point.
As far as I'm concerned, unless a prospective Muslim immigrant has helped the U.S. out in one war effort or another, he does not belong in this country until we get this crap under control and eliminate it.
PING!
He has to use insane logic, or else Paul Krugman wouldn’t date him.
I don’t know who originally got the Diversity Lottery put into law, but McCain (R-Mexico) and Schuuuuuuuuuumer obviously support it, and I’m sure Flaky-Flake does too.
Levin also claimed that the Mueller investigation was diverting law enforcement resources, with the implication that the NYC attack could have been stopped if the witch hunt was not going on. However, I would have to see proof that actual counter-terrorism resources were being diverted for the witch hunt. Otherwise, this assertion smacks of a cheap shot, right down there with the hack Richard Cohen implying that the Republican Congress’ investigations of Clinton distracted Clinton from preventing 9-11.
the NYT is a loony bin for the brain-damaged
Why would he carry those fake guns? Was he attempting to end his killing spree with suicide by cop?
Agreed. It is absolutely nonsensical to say that “diversity” builds our strength.
