Dinesh D’Souza compares Ferguson protesters to ISIS

Apparently protesting the shooting death of an unarmed black kid is the same as beheading a journalist

IAN BLAIR


Filmmaker and President Obama truther, Dinesh D’Souza, likened James Foley’s beheading to protesters in Ferguson, Missouri on Thursday while appearing on NewsMaxTV’s “Steve Malzberg Show.”

“The common thread between ISIS and what’s going in Ferguson is you have these people who basically believe that to correct a perceived injustice, it’s perfectly okay to inflict all types of new injustices,” said D’Souza on NewsMaxTV’s Steve Malzberg Show. “Behead guys who had nothing to do with it. Go and loot shops from business owners who were not part of the original problem whatsoever. And all of this is then licensed by the left and licensed to some degree by the media.”

D’Souza currently awaits sentencing for violating federal campaign finance law and lying about it–he illegally contributed $20,000 to friend and New York Senate candidate Wendy Long in 2012. D’Souza later admitted to breaking the law, which prohibits any person from making contributions in the name of others or reimbursing another person’s contribution, according the office Manhattan U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara.

D’Souza potentially could serve up to two years in prison.

He's a well educated guy who has chosen to capitalize on the very worst in human nature. What a scumbag.

10. Can we put him in jail already?

Then, after jail, since he's a felon, can we deport him back to India? I don't care if he's a naturalized citizen or not. He's now a convicted felon. He should go!
