You can read the article he wrote here (Freep wouldn't let me post it because of copyright issues) And by the way: When did saying "deport illegals" become racist?...........https://www.desmoinesregister.com/story/opinion/columnists/2018/09/01/mollie-tibbetts-father-common-decency-immigration-heartless-despicable-donald-trump-jr-column/1163131002/
But it’s okay to use the senseless deaths of high school kids from mass shootings to promote costly, intrusive, and ineffective gun control?
Illegal alien is now a “race”?
Uh, yeah, what racism? Maybe he should take in some kids ripped from their mothers (?) arms at the border.
I didn’t know “illegal” was a race. The things ya learn.
If it is a FACT that Mollie was murdered by an illegal, then nothing is being politicized. Illegal aliens are the number one issue for voters. The fact that America has an issue with illegals is what makes it political. It must be dealt with by those in political power - how can it NOT be political. People are so stupid.
Confirming who gave Mollie self-loathing/bigotry lessons.
Well, he can say what he wants, but we have freedom of speech and we say that his daughter is now a poster child for border control, so that’s that.
Having committed a crime versus not having committed a crime are not two separate races.
Whatever. The stupidity is overwhelming.
Mollie herself is an example that making law breakers a protected race isn’t such a good idea.
It is NOT racist to expouse the novel notion that “citizens” want safe communities and do NOT want to be over-run with illegals.
I understand and respect the parents’ grief.
But Americans must take the legal steps necessary to protect other citizens and the future of our Republic.
Mr. Tibbetts I’m sorry about you losing Molliie, but you are a FOOL.
“...to promote a racist agenda...”
Agreed, let’s promote a law-abiding agenda.
What he is basically saying here is that his daughter would prefer death over enforcing immigration laws. Utter insanity.
How sad. The father of a girl who was murdered supporting the murderer. I guess maybe we should know the politics of the family before we try to enforce the LAWS? This young man already broke the LAW and if he hadn’t been in this country, Mollie would still be alive. Maybe we should ask the politics, before caring about a murdered young woman?
He’s pretty goofy. Seems to me that a young girl jogging alone is a prescription for danger.
so this dad wants pc wording rather than truth remembered about his daughter’s murderer?
He wants his daughter’s death to mean nothing to those around locally or beyond, just accept more people will be killed by selfish, disrespectful, evil minded, continuous criminal invaders who should not even be in the country?!!!
Glad we have clear thinking people speaking truth unlike the dad.
Before she died Mollie tweeted about how much she hated white people. This entire family is (or was,, in Mollie’s case) lunatic fringe and you couldn’t ask for better proof of that than reading Mollie’s father’s editorial. Just be thankful you don’t have to spend a holiday over at their house being lectured while they are sitting around in their pajamas sipping cocoa.
