      There really is a striking amount of similarities to what's going on compared to what happened during WWII.

          My reservations about Trump aside, this is getting a bit ridiculous. He is nothing like Hitler - he isn't planning on rounding up and exterminating gays, muslims, mexicans or any other group. We should all be vigilant, yes, but also careful not to water down Nazi terminology to the point where it no longer has any impact or value.

            You're the one talking about Hitler and Nazis. I just pointed out that there are similarities.

            I never suggested Trump was planning on rounding up and exterminating anybody, but I think his some of his supporters are delusional and they will. There's already been a bunch of relatively minor incidents, granted, I don't think suggesting that murder or bomb threats are minor, but they are minor compared to rounding up large groups of people and gassing them to death.

              You're the one who gave cue to that comparison then, don't try to act naive. But meh…I don't want to start a fight with you as it would be pointless, so I'd rather read the damn thing and write my opinion.

              Anyways...don't you think it would have been better to...I don't know...keep this shit secret? But they gave out names, so ICE could pinpoint where are the safehouses and just wait for one of the migrants to go out. I thought the idea of a 'safe house' involved it being somewhat secret.

              Is people dumb or starved for fame? My guess is both (we're talking about religious wacko people after all)

                Depends on your point of view but if you are for people doing this, then yes it was kind of stupid to put it into the open. They did keep the locations secret but some of the people put their names and faces out there, which wasn't a good idea for them.

                  So called President Trump is dangerous.  His comments the other day about the press being the "enemy of the American people" is totally outrageous.  He is putting these people in the same category as ISIS.  There is some moron sitting in his basement right now just waiting for the day when he is going to physically attack and kill a bunch of innocent reporters because so called President Trump is reckless and doesn't know how to act like a leader.

                    Are we talking about the same media that kept pushing the lie of "hands up don't shoot"? Which was complete FAKE NEWS which led to rioting and burning down millions of dollars worth of property and people getting hurt? Yeah, the media is the enemy. The media wants to divide Americans because it gives them good ratings.

                      By that logic so called President Trump is also an enemy of the American people.  He lies just as much as the media.

                        You're neglecting to mention that your statement is only true if you reorder the events. The media was reporting the information they had, which was indeed, inaccurate. Nobody knew that the shooting was justified until after the Justice Department intervened. You're making it sound like over a hundred media outlets conspired to fabricate a story because of "good ratings." It wasn't the media that lied and there are plenty of stories in the media admitting that the information they had was inconsistent with reality.

                        _"He shot again, and once my friend felt that shot, he turned around and put his hands in the air, and he started to get down," Johnson said. "But the officer still approached with his weapon drawn and fired several more shots."

                        "We wasn't causing harm to nobody," Johnson told the television station. "We had no weapons on us at all."_
