Teen’s death turns into an immigratio­n debate

Seventeen-year-old Nabra Hassanen was killed Sunday on her way back to her mosque after a “road rage” incident in Sterling, Va. The suspect in custody, Darwin Martinez Torres, is an undocument­ed immigrant.

Now that an undocument­ed immigrant has killed someone, liberals will bend over backwards to protect him. Will they finally admit illegal immigratio­n is an issue?

A defenseles­s young woman is brutally murdered, and people’s interest in this heinous crime is how they can use it to further their agendas. Shameful and shameless.

A teenager gets murdered. She happens to be a Muslim with her head covered. Everyone assumes it’s a hate crime. Maybe it was just a crime.

Notice since it was not a white person, the news media are making no big fuss about this.

This creep targets a group of Muslims after leaving their religious observance, and some don’t considered it a hate crime? How far will people go to deny that race and religion are used to target people?

Ron Schofield

Obviously, not all Americans are happy with the growing number of Muslims in the U.S. Perhaps if Muslims find a hostile environmen­t here, they will be less inclined to come or grow their community here, and that’s OK with me and millions of other Americans.

Liberals have been eerily silent after it turned out that the alleged killer was not a white Trump supporter.

Tommy Connors

This criminal should be prosecuted, sent to prison and given the harshest punishment for murder.
