They actually expect someone to believe this.

Yep, Democrat voters that will sit on the jury. Sadly they most likely will too.

Tajikistan = 98% Muslim. So I'm sure we'll soon hear the killer or his lawyers claim that he was the victim of not only an anti-immigrant but also an Islamophobic attack.

And of cause the media will connect it all to Trump.

Sounds like it!

[Alas Babylon!]

OK, then, put him in cuffs, and have the DA “throw the book at him.”

This guy is lying. No way the Canadian college professor said any such thing. This is like all those folks who attack someone and later claim “They called me the N-word.” Most of the time, I’m betting no such thing happened. Think of all the examples lately we’ve seen of people claiming the police said this and that, and then the body cam comes out and shows they are lying.

You went with the homo angle right off the bat.

So did I!
