    Wow, even QYFW admits what the guy is saying is idiotic.

    Yeah, it doesn't work too often. But every so often, you get one of them to the point of a meltdown, and it makes the effort all worth it.

    You don't like what someone posts on Facebook? Ignore it and move on. If it's a friend, and it really bothers you? Unfollow them or mute them. I did plenty of that when people on my timeline were slurping Obama's taint for eight years. Facebook is a stupid place to come to blows over politics.

    So why is what he's saying valid?

    When the first Nazi death camps were liberated and the horrors revealed to the world, what was the United States' response?

    "That's bullshit!"

    That sounds terrible. Why did ICE take him into custody?

    I am beginning to think Ryan is more corrupt than the president. At least the president grabbed the brass ring on his own.

    There was this little felony drug conviction (15 years, of which he served about half) that conveniently was ignored in the tweet and in the Chicago Tribune headline.

    This is what pisses people off, and the media continues to do. It doesn't matter how outrageous his potential deportation may be, you do NOT write your headline in a way that tugs in one direction (veteran! green card holder! two tours in Afghanistan! 2 U.S. citizen kids!) while not tugging in the other direction (convicted drug felon).
