Trump at California rally:
“We will immediately stop all the pillaging and theft, very simply — if you rob a store you can fully expect to be shot as you are leaving that store.”
Imagine a teenage girl falling for the temptation, steeling a candy bar, then 30 seconds later being executed by the store owner, because that was made legal by a Republican government.
What a vision for the future.
@133a688f Yeah, except it won't be teenage white girls; it'll be black and brown people.
I know you didn't say white, but phrasing it as being a problem because of teenage girls doing minor theft projects a certain idea of what constitutes innocence and minor crime. One that doesn't match who Trump and his followers are fantasising about killing. It's good to not play into the same tropes they do.
No one should be summarily executed for a crime.
