Bringing in the mother of a woman killed by someone from El Salvador to suggest the criminality of someone with whom that murderer shared nothing except also being Salvadoran is giving up the game in a way I wish had gotten more attention.

Bringing in the mother of a woman killed by someone from El Salvador to suggest the criminality of someone with whom that murderer shared nothing except also being Salvadoran is giving up the game in a way I wish had gotten more attention.

It is also fucking gross.

Just disgusting!!!

Patty Morin, whose daughter Rachel was raped and murdered by a fugitive from El Salvador in 2023, joined Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt at a White House briefing on Wednesday.

It’s why Trump wants to ship Americans to El Salvador: an American once raped and murdered someone. El Salvador is going to get awful crowded.

Highly prejudicial and gravely misleading. Beyond bad taste too. Awful.

Using this logic all Catholics are pedophiles🤦‍♂️

Fucking gross - to prey on this mother and to insinuate that somehow this reflects on Abrego Garcia's character.

investtoelect.bsky.social•3 days ago

This poor mother. And poor Kilmar Abrego Garcia. And those poor Venezuelan men who were kidnapped and are imprisoned in a concentration camp. It’s all horrible.

It’s all horrible but only the mother is choosing to make others’ lives worse.

A fucking white supremacist AMERICAN killed 2 and injured many at a uni in FL today.
Fuck off with your racist “immigrant “ crap!! Oh right, muricans say “illegal alien”!
You fucking morons!

Identical to citing Bernie Madoff as justification for rounding up all Jews

The people who let themselves be used like this are not victims. They're racist too.

On some level their argument that he is a gang member rests on the equation of all Salvadorans with gangs. Something they did as well to Hondurans.

I think we should deal with these people the same way we dealt with Streicher. A court hearing!

I'm always impressed that people who habitually use language to obscure and distort manage to avoid going broke or other such consequence of not seeing reality.

commonsensetom.bsky.social•2 days ago

Sadly, they do it because it works.
The same way the Nazis turned the German people against the Jews.

The part that always gets me is that native-born Americans are statistically more criminal than immigrants, documented or otherwise. But in the same way right-wingers LOVE to fixate on the extremely few serious vaccine side-effects, they LOVE to focus on other convenient exceptions.

joshcrowley.bsky.social•3 days ago

It's especially infuriating when they're like "but do you really want RAPISTS to come into our country???" as if the same people espousing that xenophobic trash haven't spent their entire lives victim-blaming rape victims and "bOyZ WiLL bE bOis"-ing sex offenders.

It's as if they conveniently forget that the current president is a rapist and are doing nothing to impeach him.

Whaddya mean? Criminal and predatory sexual behavior by white Americans is part of the hiring criteria for positions in the Trump administration.

This is performative bullshit of the worst kind.

Agreed!

ashituna.bsky.social•2 days ago

i’m sorry for her, but allowing herself to be used like this is fucking disgusting. go to grief therapy instead of victimising every el salvadoran man for some misguided form of justice

pubdef.bsky.social•2 days ago

What happened to her daughter is sad.

What is so weird is that, by this rationale, we should at least take away the guns of, or imprison, all white men bc white men engage in shooting rampages at schools, workplaces, or Vegas streets. But ofc we don’t so what point are they really making?

mullinshere.bsky.social•3 days ago

Lowest common denominator tactics for the low-info crowd and MAGA base. It's also exploitation of Mrs. Morin's grief and the horrible murder of Rachel. Utter tabloid sleaze. Yes, it gives up the game, though Leavitt and Bondi were already at that with "human trafficker" and "top MS-13 member."

You can't blame GROUPS for INDIVIDUALS' actions.

diartemi.bsky.social•2 days ago

Disgraceful that the mother is letting her daughter’s tragic story be used this way.

tchurchillart.bsky.social•3 days ago

Should we parade all the mothers of women raped and murdered by red-blooded Americans? That would be quite a crowd.

cyanescens.bsky.social•2 days ago

MS-13 is terrible because they shake down people & businesses & kill people for no good reason.

Unlike the Trump admin that’s shaking down everyone in sight and killing millions of HIV+ people, people with TB, etc because of their skin color
