With slogans like "tough on crime, " what can you expect?
Keep in mind "crime" is the GOP code word for "non-white." Like when Trump says they're the party of "law and order" it's just a code word for "white people." Because there's nothing lawful or orderly about rapists and pedophiles.
If crime is synonymous of non-whites, what does that really say about non-white people?
Why do so many people associate crime and non-whites?
The crimes people see in their day-to-day lives are usually theft, simple battery and so-on. These 'petty' crimes are heavily linked to socioeconomics.... and guess who's poor?
Petty crimes? Might want to check the racial murder statistics

Embezzlement, insider trading, securities fraud and so forth hurt far, far more people but are a lot more abstract and hidden from view. You don't see cops on the side of the road with handcuffs on a Wall Street bankers every day.
You should look at the socioeconomic statistics and disregard race. You'll find a much more telling story than your non-whites-are-criminals narrative. Perhaps you'll find, gasp, that poor people have less stable communities.
EDIT: Also what the fuck are you doing editing your post with a quote from a child of your original comment? Do you not know how this works?
I didn't say synonymous nor did I suggest it was an earned stereotype. What I said was that the GOP's uses phrases like "tough on crime" which really means "tough on non-whites and poor people."
I never once said there was any truth to that, it's propaganda after all.
It just happens to be that way that many women have come out telling their stories during his time as president. That is coincidence not any of his work.
I try to respect people's opinion on many topics but this? You have got to be kidding me. Do you truly believe that the Trump administration is taking the time in putting away pedophiles? Do you recall Trump supported Moore? It is a mere coincidence that these things are happening under his presidency. My understanding is these things started coming to light due to what is happening in Hollywood. I would gladly accept some sources to refute my statement.
