Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Tuesday, March 03, 2026

When a 41-year-old mother is murdered at a bus stop, who bothers to protest? Stephanie Minter's death is as closely tied to the nation's immigration debate as Alex Pretti's or Renee Good's. But while Pretti and Good died while trying to prevent the enforcement of our country's immigration laws, Minter died precisely because those laws were not enforced. Abdul Jalloh, the man alleged to have stabbed Minter to death in Fairfax County, Virginia, should never have set foot in America.

FTA:

" He came here illegally from Sierra Leone in 2012, and since then he's illegally done just about everything else imaginable:

Jalloh was arrested more than 30 times -- for everything from drug possession and trespassing to assault, malicious wounding and rape -- before he finally turned an innocent woman into a pincushion ... ... .

A case like his ought to make defenders of illegal immigration and leniency toward repeat offenders rethink their values:

It's not compassionate to go easy on men like Jalloh -- it's cruel to victims like Minter and the others he preyed upon.

But progressives only protest when lawbreakers are the "victims," and in their topsy-turvy worldview, it's police who are more dangerous than criminals.

So no one will take to the streets over Stephanie's slaying -- in politics, her life doesn't matter.

The politicians progressives have lately put into office promise to make murders like Minter's harder to prevent"

Trump/MAGA searching for the moral high ground is worthless.

You are an organization of intellectual and moral sheep being led by a sociopathic criminal.

There are at least a dozen intelligent and ethically-centered posters here who could come up with a better plan to deal with migrants than you and the rest of Trum/MAGA have done.

There are at least a dozen who could come up with a better way of dealing with the new Trump/MAGA Neocon war with Iran.

You are such empty, empty people.

Brains and souls you're short on, but vocal cords allow you to screech.

Dude.

Texan MAGA dad killed his daughter for questioning his support for Trump and the jury applauded his actions.

There have been 58 mass shootings in America since January 1st 2026: www.gunviolencearchive.org

You didn't post about any.

But when one immigrant kills someone and it's time to panic?

Why don't you go relax and soak your head in bleach, Trump recommends!

Also you fucking piece of shit, you don't get to downplay the federal government killing Renee Good and Alex Pretti for no fucking reason.

Fuck you.

Fuck Trump.

Fuck your whole cult.

Karma is a bitch.

Just wait and see.

Lemme guess, Zed. This woman, Minter, who was stabbed to death, she got exactly what she deserved, right?

Was her skirt too short?

It's always interesting watching certain lefties side with someone who brutally murdered a woman for no reason at all.

^
You think Good and Pretti both deserved to be killed.

My point is that you, and you people, guilt-trip others about a morality you don't have.

Contemplate the word I used: "empty".

You side with Trump.
But it's not particularly interesting watching you side with a serial child rapist.
It's about as surprising as water being wet.

Since Trump's policy of mass incarceration and concentration camps, more people have been killed by ICE than have been killed by illegal immigrants.

Only if you think the government and the illegal immigrant should be held to the same standard.

So, according to Snoofy's "logic"being killed by LEO is a lot morepainful for the deceased's loved ones than than if their loved one was murdered by an illegal alien. Heck, Minter's family shouldn't even feel bad about her death since she was killed by an illegal alien. Where is their compassion for this troubled man who is trying to make a life for himself here?

"caused you to side for a brutal murder illegal alien"

Is this like when Trump's lawyers sided with a brutal rapist, during the E Jean Carroll case?

He holds Republicans and ICE to zero standards.

Matter of fact, he supported and defended the killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti.

Hey BullBringer.

What happened to Trump's wall???

Isn't that what you voted for in 2016?

Why do we still have an "open border"?

Trump has spent more time attacking and destroying Minnesota than he has spent "securing" the southern border.

I mean. I know republicans are ignorant, do you consider Minnesota to be the southern border?

This death is on Trump.

Trump killed this women.

Jeff can't understand the difference between an immigrant committing violence and the state committing violence

Jeff can't understand that this case is an outlier... that per capita, immigrants commit less crimes than do US citizens... and FAR less violent crimes.

So he very dishonestly takes an outlier case and pretends it's the norm.

SO much like Trump in that respect, he is.

Jeff can't or won't answer as to why Jalloh wasn't deported in accordance with Piggy's stated goal of targeting the worst of the worst. I can't imagine anyone would have supported that action.

News4 is awaiting word on why ICE did not pick up Jalloh after any of his many stays at the Fairfax County jail in recent years.

"If ICE didn't do their job and remove him when they had the opportunity, then part of the blame lands on them," Kennedy said. "What happened? What paperwork error happened? Was there a judge involved that blocked deportation?"

Why didn't ICE deport this violent criminal in the 13 months since Piggy was inaugurated?

Maybe ICE was too busy terrorizing children and the elderly

I blame ICE for this lady's murder

I would have wholeheartedly support that deportation!

Piggy is to blame for this murder
