That makes Sullivan the second-most prolific lobbyist-bundler for the Clinton campaign, beaten out only by D.C. lobbyist Heather Podesta, who's tallied up $348,581 so far.

You see, both will make the situation worse, one is just being honest about it. The other part is that people will think electing Hillary, so she could throw something out there for Republicans to shoot down, will be an acceptable outcome and be ready to move on.
The benefit of Trump's proposal is it gives a concrete policy to fight. Hillary just creates the illusion of doing something positive when it's not.

First, you realize this article is from February? And second, you realize that it's part of the pledge she made to give any money from for-profit prisons to charity?
I read the article in Feb, so yes. You realize the first words I quoted were "Despite the refunds (which included the donation to charity)"?

Any news on if the black guys beating that white guy are arrested yet? Or does neither the media or police care because they don't have anything to gain by going after that incident because the victim is white?

Who will fight that concrete policy? The Republican Congress? The NAACP in the courts?

One of these mayors where BLM is wreaking havoc needs to grow a pair and clear the vermin out. Regardless of the merits of the alleged grievance spurring these protests, the situation is unacceptably out of control.

no need to be rude about it. insinuating nobody cares about such a thing is uncalled for and unjustified.

What else do you call these creatures that are destroying police cars, setting fires, looting, and beating white people just for being white? These aren't people, these aren't law abiding citizens, these aren't the law abiding black people that are mistreated, these are beasts that nees to be taken off the streets.

to play sorta devil's advocate, perhaps xDaunt is using "the vermin" the way Clinton used superpredators, ie to refer to a segment of the african american population committing crimes. obviously loaded and hyperbolic terminology that most people today wouldn't use, but not 100% wrong.
or knowing that it's post-conservative xDaunt, he's just baiting people.

Claiming criminals aren't people seems really... dangerous. They may be awful people for X, Y, or Z reasons, but to claim that a person ceases to be a person the instant they commit a crime is horrific thinking.

I think you're being a little unfair. I don't think they are saying all the protesters are vermin or creatures or whatever. They are saying these distinctly shitty people who are beating people and trying to toss people into fire (WTF) are indeed pieces of shit. We shouldn't have any reservations about labeling violent protesters are awful, awful people. Plenty of peaceful protesters who don't try to throw people into flaming trash cans.

You aee right, I went overboard in my anger at the situation with all the riots that are allowed to go on and destroy property and commit hate crimes and get away with it. They are still people, although it does not change the fact thst I think all of the rioters involved in any of the violence should be locked up for a good while
