It was during a rally in Erie, Pennsylvania. Donald Trump suggested that police violence could reduce crime. “A really tough hour,” with no restrictions for the agents and that would help restore order. Trump falsely claimed that police in California, the home state of Democratic candidate Kamala Harris, do not intervene when criminals steal merchandise for less than $950. Trump then said police should be allowed to be “tough” on criminals to send a clear message. “The word would spread and it would be over immediately. Because the agents are not allowed to do their job. The liberal left does not let them,” he added.
Trump’s “Purge”
“The Purge” is a series of films that contemplates the possibility of allowing, in this case, citizens to commit all types of violent acts. It occurs from dusk until early the next day. There are no rules, there are no norms. Those who can take refuge in their homes and protect themselves with weapons. Others go to high security centers managed by the army. During these hours, citizens who wish to do so can go out on the street and commit all types of crimes. Of course, they also risk being the object of that same violence. In this way, according to Hollywood scriptwriters, criminal acts would be reduced.
Trump singles out immigrants again
Social networks have been filled with comments towards Trump’s latest idea. The Republican candidate, however, did not offer more details of his proposal. But many remembered what happened on January 6, 2021, with the assault on the Capitol. Incendiary rhetoric that could invite these types of violent acts. Trump tried to support his argument by relying on false data about the increase in crime due to immigrants. “Terrorists are pouring in,” he said.
“They are the worst kind,” Trump said of immigrants who have committed violent crimes. “Accused or convicted of heinous crimes, including child predators, drug dealers, ruthless gang members, sadistic thugs, and people who traffic women.”
This is not the first time Trump has attacked immigrants. During his campaign in 2016, he accused Mexico of sending rapists and criminals to the United States. “They are bringing drugs, crime. They are not good people. I talk to the border guards and they themselves tell me that they see it every day,” he said.
