So when an immigrant stages a murderous, probably terrorist attack, Trump tweets that he should get the death penalty and immigration laws should be changed. But when a non-immigrant, white guy shoots up a Walmart at random and kills three people, nothing. When the white Vegas shooter murdered a lot more people than the New York bike path terrorist, Trump didn't call for any changes to any laws and didn't urge punishment (yes, he's dead, but that wouldn't stop Trump from calling for vengeance). When a white Nazi drove his car into a crowd and killed a woman in Charlottesville -- an act of terror -- you know what Trump did. Are you noticing a pattern here? If you're a Trump supporter, can you defend what's clearly a double-standard with significant racial overtones? (Washington Post; Denver Post)
