Ken Cuccinelli "apparently, American values did not take hold in this family."

[Demovictory9]

In a now-deleted Monday tweet, acting director of US Citizenship and Immigration Services Ken Cuccinelli blamed a Saturday stabbing at a rabbi's home in New York on illegal immigration and amnesty laws.

On Saturday, an attacker wielding a machete wounded five Jewish individuals gathering in the home of a Hasidic rabbi to light candles at around 10 p.m. ET for the last night of Hanukah in Monsey, New York.

Cuccinelli tweeted that Grafton Thomas, the accused assailant, is "the US citizen son of an illegal alien who got amnesty under the 1986 law amnesty law for illegal immigrants," adding, "apparently, American values did not take hold in this family."
The Monsey attack comes amid a troubling spike in violent crimes targeting primarily Orthodox Jewish communities in New York.

3. and indication (at all) that this individual's upbringing

or home life had ANYTHING to do with the attack?
If not .. then I'm going to name this just straight up immigrant bashing and race baiting.
Remember Tim McVeigh's parents being implicated in his extremist views ...? RIGHT!

[okaawhatever]

4. You mean that 1986 amnesty law that Reagan supported and signed? nt

5. "American values" do not include putting children in cages, Ken.

Cuccinelli is very definitely on the wrong side of that conversation.

7. Bigger worry......

SOME American 'values' held by right-wing racist haters may have.

Great opportunity to criticize Nazi assholes......immigrants not so much.

8. What horse shit.

Never mind the genocide of true Americans by Euros. Oh no, they’ll just overlook that part of European-based history. Fuck these right wing Euro dirt bags.
