Was Trump out of Line?

[Angus]

With what I`ve seen and heard, Trump would become the next Hugo Chavez. He`d alienate other countries by "speaking his mind" and putting his foot in his mouth. Plain and simple this guy would set up back 50 yrs!

Hugo Chavez is a great comparison to Trump. But instead he`s set us back much further than 50 years...

Funny, the Jews never went around mass murdering women and children. They never bombed malls in the name of a religion, they never attacked other countries through radical idealist views that preach death to christians. The Jews were a scapegoat that did NOTHING wrong, they were simply occupying a country. Don`t ever classify MY PEOPLE with people who preach death to all but their own religion...

If your going to get your facts right, the Jews weren`t the cause of the sinking of the lusitania, the extremist muslim religion DID lead to 911!

You have seriously got to be smoking something, PC my a$$.

Wow...that`s a scary comparison. It just takes one person to stir up a mob in the wrong direction. Right now, that one person is Trump.

I`m not defending Trump but people who make this assumption (An A$$ out of u and me, remember that). He spoke about Illegals, not immigrants. My family has been in the international trade business for ages, were have employed many immigrants. All who applied and came here LEGALLY, some having to spend tens of thousands to get a lawyer to stay here permanently. People who work hard, PAY THEIR TAXES and do things the right way. Some faced serious hardship back in their home countries and yet they still made it here legally. Generalizing them with illegals is a spit in their face...

Illegals take from the system, send money back to their home countries and yes some not all are more likely to commit crimes. They may not be violent but not paying taxes or driving without insurance IS A CRIME. Quit these BS left wing generalities, the people who don`t deal with this don`t see, for those of us that are qualified to speak on the matter... I and many others find it disgraceful.

Funny, no one says that about sharpton and his radical views against whites.

Muhammad Ali made a great statement the other day in response to Trump`s banning Muslims from entering the USA:

”I am a Muslim and there is nothing Islamic about killing innocent people in Paris, San Bernardino, or anywhere else in the world. True Muslims know that the ruthless violence of so called Islamic Jihadists goes against the very tenets of our religion.

We as Muslims have to stand up to those who use Islam to advance their own personal agenda. They have alienated many from learning about Islam. True Muslims know or should know that it goes against our religion to try and force Islam on anybody.

Speaking as someone who has never been accused of political correctness, I believe that our political leaders should use their position to bring understanding about the religion of Islam and clarify that these misguided murderers have perverted people`s views on what Islam really is.”

That is so true about political leaders being more understanding. That`s what boggles my mind...Trump has so much business background but he`s not using that as a forefront for his campaign. I think he would be more liked if he focused on making America great through his business knowledge. We are ALL tired of how the government handles budgets, so why not focus on the business side of things? Instead, he`s leading a campaign that is focused on hate.

Right, because without Donald Trump there would be no anti Muslim sentiment

[xspwrstang]

Well that`s kinda unrealistic here. Every single group/religion/race will always have opposition no matter what. But Trump is simply adding to the hate, nothing more.

I totally agree. If he`s such an amazing business man and a "winner" why not say - "hey here`s my plan for improving the economy" or "these are the steps I`ll take as president to bring home jobs from overseas"? Nope, because that`s not news worth anymore.

Instead he take the easy potshots, gives the most outrageous sound bites, works the media into a frenzy, creating hate and fueling radical extremism...

Nah, just a change of subject. I`m no fan of Al Sharpton either. Like Trump, Sharpton has a self serving agenda.

Your absolutely right, so where are their leaders? why aren`t they doing anything to stop these radicals? I have not seen one major muslim figurehead here take any kind of stance against this... Why should we americans have to reach out to them, when we are being attacked on our own soil. If they value this country so much then why aren`t they the first condemning these acts and being PROACTIVE to stop them. Discussions like this make sick because people like you condemn the bad acts but offer no solution and that my friend is pathetic and weak. If your going to open your mouth, especially in the spotlight have a solution ready if not, get back in line and hold a candle for the next vigil thats right down the road...

If someone in my family was committing horrible acts in the name of my family, I would be the first to want to stop them.

They have condemned the attacks. Muslim leader despise ISIS. Why? Because ISIS has killed more Muslims across the Middle East then any other group. Muslim leaders who condemned the Paris attacks alone:
