Trump is Right About Illegals, Says Grieving Father
By Matthew Vadum
A fiery black opponent of so-called sanctuary cities whose teenaged son was murdered in cold blood by an illegal alien gangster from Mexico is cheering on Donald Trump for demanding that the U.S. government enforce existing immigration laws.
“I felt happy for the first time,” Jamiel Shaw Sr. said in an interview with Fox News.
“When that happened, I felt good. I felt hope. This is the hope that Obama thought he was gonna get. That was false hope."
Shaw was referring to the explosively controversial remarks by the ultra-high profile Trump, an outspoken New York-based billionaire who is seeking the Republican Party's presidential nomination for 2016. Trump became the focus of water cooler and social media conversations across America and beyond when he spoke last month of the problems that illegal aliens from Mexico cause the host country they invade.
"When Mexico sends its people, they're not sending the best," Trump said at the launch of his presidential campaign. He continued:
They're not sending you, they're sending people that have lots of problems and they're bringing those problems. They're bringing drugs, they're bringing crime. They're rapists and some, I assume, are good people, but I speak to border guards and they're telling us what we're getting.
Shaw said he hadn't planned on voting next year but he has changed his mind. Now he intends to cast his ballot for Trump.
