Clinton calls one half of Trump supporters "a basket of diplorables"

One of the best worded explanations of the left I've ever read......

"The use of loaded epithets like "racist, sexist, homophobic, Islamophobic, xenophobic" is a favorite strategy of the left, a shotgun approach to marginalize large segments of the population who don't happen to agree with their agenda. 

These are ter
ms without any content. Most often, they are used to stifle an honest discussion of the issues, and alternative ways to address them. 
When they are invoked, they are intended to shut down rational debate and intellectual rigor. 

What exactly do these words mean, objectively?
Nothing. Which is precisely the reason they are levelled against the political and cultural enemies of the left. When a word is devoid of specific meaning, it is completely malleable, and can mean whatever it needs to mean at a particular time and in a certain context. 

Is it racist to cite facts about the deterioration of the family unit in the Black community? Is it xenophobic to oppose the immigration of substantial numbers of people from regions where a large percentage of the population supports ideas that are opposed to our culture and traditions, many of whom might intend violence against our citizens? Is it sexist to be appalled by the murder of millions of unborn children in the name of "choice," which is itself a word lacking substance if not paired with a specific action? Is it Islamophobic to acknowledge that Islam has a long history of aggression against the West? Is it homophobic to resist attempts to advance not merely tolerance towards a minority group, but approval of a lifestyle that is counter to traditional morality?

Hilary Clinton has publicly stated that those who oppose her policies must abandon their religious beliefs where those values run counter to the secular paradigm. Is that not a direct threat to their freedom?
Many more examples of leftist prejudice could be cited, but I fear this post might already be too wordy.

When you have the DOJ in your hip pocket, you can get away with murder. You don't even think it a bit strange, if not planned, that a man who was going to testify againt Hillary the following morning had his throat crushed by a weight lifting bar the night before? Please, not even the least bit concerning?

You sound insane. Lmbo

I don't care what you guys say. ALL of Trump's supporters are deplorable.

I find it odd that you feel safe in saying that in a public forum after Democrats have tried to paint Trump supporters as violent people filled with hate. Do you feel scared now or do you know in your heart that your Democrat leaders are just full of crap?

    • What news station do you watch?…..never mind.    What age are the children you take care of. Refugees from where? Are they in a hospital? Now children compared to criminals…..geeeez. The mayor of Denver and a few governors, including Newsom, have said they will not turn over incarcerated criminals to ICE. This is a felony. They are harboring criminals and fugitives. Gee, I’m so glad you want criminals protected. Anyone who crossed illegally into our country is a criminal. Happy Holidays to you and yours.
    • Sorry sir on my miss count. I was in hurry
    • Are they offering refuge to criminals? Or is it a Trump talking point? Refugees are people who leave their country due to unwarranted prosecution. I actually take care of 2 refugee kids who have complex medical needs   No, refugees are not criminals, and the assumption that they are more likely to be criminals than the general population is incorrect:                                                                                          Research shows immigrants commit crimes at lower rates Immigrants in the United States commit crimes at lower rates than the U.S.-born population, including unauthorized immigrants. This is true across immigrant groups.                  Immigration doesn't raise crime rates Immigrants don't raise crime rates in the communities where they settle. In fact, some studies suggest that immigration can lower crime rates, especially violent crime.                  Anti-immigration politicians have spread a myth Anti-immigration politicians have repeatedly tried to link immigrants to crime, but research shows this is a myth.                  Refugees don't cause crime in Turkey A study found that refugees don't have a causal effect on crime rates in Turkey. In fact, the study found that refugees may have a negative effect on crime rates per capita. 
    • I think it's actually the first time ever to get past the second round. Some older folks might try to tell you about Scott High but I wasn't here when that school was around 😆
    • Smith is 78-31 overall and 18-8 in the playoffs. His first three years he went 23-15 overall and 6-3 in playoffs. His Silsbee teams are averaging making 3rd round every year in his 9 years as head coach.
