Tuberville warns US citizens: "Don't hang around illegals"

[groundloop]

Source: Salon

Senator Tommy Tuberville, R-Ala., advised U.S. citizens on Wednesday not to associate with undocumented immigrants lest they be swept up in raids by federal agents.

[.....]

“Well, first of all, don’t put yourself in a situation where that happens,” Tuberville said, in a video shared to X. “And I’m sure with all the illegals we have in this country, you’re gonna probably have some mistakes happen. That’s gonna happen.”

Tuberville went on to warn U.S. citizens that “hanging around” undocumented immigrants could lead to them being detained or arrested by association.

Manriquez then asked the senator what U.S. citizens can do to avoid arrest by ICE. “Don’t hang around illegals,” Tuberville told him. “Bottom line, because President Trump has said, we’re gonna go after you. And at the end of the day, if you’re in the wrong place at the wrong time, something bad could happen.”

Fucking racist bastard !!!!!

[Grokenstein]

1. Don't hang around fascists. Something bad could happen.

[DBoon]

2. How do we know if someone is here without documentation?

Are we supposed to avoid anyone who is not white and does not speak with an American accent?

Do we need to ask everyone we associate with (clerk at supermarket, waiter at restaurant, etc.) for a certified birth certificate? And if they can't produce one, should we flee in terror?

Or isthe Trump administration going to make undocumented migrants wear a distinctive badge, like this?

[jaxxon20]

9. no racist accessorization

The only article of clothing that would make me turn someone in to an ICE agent is a red hat!

[Eugene]

11. A climate of paralyzing fear. Don't even go near those brown people.

[slightlv]

13. Yes! That's exactly what trump is

aiming for. First terrorize any non-white person, especially if they're Hispanic and then isolate them as a demographic. Easier to go in for the kill that way.

If this works he'll apply it to other out of favor groups. That will make it so much easier for the magats to know who it's perfectly OK to shoot. We're getting close to true concentration camps I'm afraid.

Of course freedom of association as in the constitution is as ignored as every other right and amendment. Why the crap doesn't he just call a press conference and make a big splash by physically tearing up the constitution? Maga would no doubt love it, but it might energize anyone else still on the fence of, oh...its not that bad yet. Grrrrr

[Skittles]

3. ILLEGALS

that's what bigots say to dehumanize people

[Walleye]

26. That's exactly what they are doing and it's working with their people

Illegals are not human beings to them, they have no humanity towards them. To them “illegals”,undocumented immigrants, are worse than Jeffrey Epstein and his child sex trafficking. How dare they speak Spanish in public

[Skittles]

27. it makes me CRINGE to see the occasional DUer casually tossing it around

UGH!!!!

[BOSSHOG]

4. Yesterday I was driving in town

Past an old house with five Mexicans WORKING on the roof. Then I went to the very busy Chinese Restaurant to get some takeout, and there were at least five people who didn’t look like me WORKING their asses off. Fuck you jerk Tuberville.

But thx for letting us know of the danger posed to all of us by members of the convicted felons administration.

The gop is a cancer.

[Prof. Toru Tanaka]

20. And this racist, fascist POS wants to be governor of Alabama.

Thank goodness the only time I ever spent in Alabama was driving on the interstate heading somewhere else.

[get the red out]

37. He is perfect

He is the perfect R candidate for AL Gov. Plus, he was a great football coach!

[AZ8theist]

40. He's Alabama's senator yet lives in Florida.....

If elected governor, how far away then will he move. Moscow?

[Prof. Toru Tanaka]

43. He and TSF can take turns brown nosing Pootie Poot.

Oh wait- TSF and Putin are on the outs this week!

[Skittles]

25. I'm in Texas

I see Hispanic folk all the time and they WORK THEIR ASSES OFF. IN TRIPLE DEGREE HEAT, EVERY FUCKING DAY.

Gawd how I DESPISE these fucking repuke bigots.

[mwmisses4289]

32. And a lot of the Hispanic population in texas can trace their family roots

back to before texas became part of the u.s..
How far back do your family roots go, tubedude?

[Skittles]

39. I've said it many times

I'm first generation American on one side and third on the other - who has more of a right to be in Texas, me or Mexican folk?

[msongs]

5. did he also say don't hang out around black men...unless you using them to build a football empire to be senator someday

[SCantiGOP]

6. And if you don't want to be accused of pedophilia,

Don’t hang around with pedophiles.

[mdbl]

7. Tuberville sounds like some weird foreign name. Someone tell ICE to investigate.

[Seinan Sensei]

22. Translation: "Tater Town"

[liberalgunwilltravel]

8. Come to my House

And say that shit, Cletus.

[MLWR]

10. How does Sen. Potatotown know whom 340,000,000 Americans hang around with?

[Karasu]

12. Fucking absurd statement. The average American has no fucking idea what anyone's citizenship status is. People don't

wear that information around their fucking necks.

This translates in Republican to: "Don't hang out with Spanish-speaking brown-skinned people or anyone ICE is likely to kidnap on the assumption that they are 'illegals,' when in reality, you don't fucking know...and neither do we. But hey, that doesn't matter, because we've got quotas to hit, and you're getting in our way."

[maxrandb]

14. Sorry to any DU member that calls Alabama home

But any state that would send that fuckstick to the Senate ought to have its statehood revoked.

After the next Civil War that sane America wins, there are going to be some fucking draconian "reconstruction" shit done...and like Donnie Dipshit has said; "this time, don't be so nice".

I am dead fucking serious. Shit will need to be done to ensure these fucking MAGAt fascists can NEVER get close enough to political power to smell its farts.

[Collimator]

15. Many people who don't identify as Flaming Liberals . . .

. . . Are-- for whatever it's worth-- fairly contrarian. This "advice" may spark some unexpected friendships.

[Marthe48]

16. I'll pick who I like

And I don't like tuber or his ilk.

[Wonder Why]

17. We'll remember not to hang around with criminals like you, Turderville

[BidenRocks]

18. He wants me out of Southern California?

The difference, dip-shit, is that I like Mexicans and diversity.

I despise Tubs with a passion! He is a wannabe.

His only skill is ass kissing!

Come visit me and we will have a little chat, traitor!

[Buddyzbuddy]

19. I think it's more important not to hang around idiots like Tuberville.

Quite frankly, I feel like I've lost I.Q. points just typing his name. What a moron.

[rickyhall]

21. I already avoid redhats.

[LudwigPastorius]

23. So, don't exercise your First Amendment rights...

just to be on the safe side?

Eat shit, Nazi pig!

[MoseShrute]

30. Exactly

Fuck your “freedoms.” Get in line and snap to attention. 🥺

[kkmarie]

24. So does this regime want to shut down all construction sites

The message don't hang around illegals is so broad. If my husband is doing a HVAC in a new house and the brickies (putting up the brick) are on the same job. The brickies are almost always not white. My husband risks getting "swept up" in making 'amurica great again.

When are we going to start arresting and fining and jailing these employers for hiring illegals?

[Walleye]

28. I bet anything Tommy has never worked a full day in his life

[Crowman2009]

29. If anything, I bet the reason he became a college football coach was to yell at black men all day.

[Walleye]

31. Yes, and it sure as hell is easier than picking strawberries for 12 hours

[bronxiteforever]

33. Turdville is a rotten to his core. N/t

[Paladin]

34. Not-so-friendly advice to Alabama residents:

Don't cast a vote for someone who's IQ level is demonstrably smaller than his shoe size.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

36. Or penis size for that matter.

God gave that man 2 heads, and is incapable of thinking with either one of them.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

35. Stupid is as stupid does, Tubby!!

[kacekwl]

38. Will do Tommy as

soon as you stop hanging around traitors and fascists.

[lastlib]

41. "Dear" Tom Potato,

Kindly proceed with self-fornication. With a cactus. Preferably a saguaro.

Sincerely, America.

[republianmushroom]

42. What the hell Tuber, you hang with the felon

who is an illegal.
