This is actually easier than shooting fish in a barrel.
If your purposes are merely to troll, that would be correct.

I already said I don't excuse Trump's ad, but yes I equate the two. Both seek to portray whole groups of people as monsters based on the extremists among them in viciously dishonest fashion. Republicans are not trying to run down or murder minority children. Illegal immigrants are not generally cop-killers.
You should oppose dishonesty where you find it, not when you like it.
The Latino commercial show minorities being terrorized by white supremacists.
THAT IS LITERALLY HAPPENING. IT HAS A GROWING BODY-COUNT. NOW. <<< Can you understand that? Is it basic enough for you? I don;t see a crayon font here. Maybe a pictograph would work?
2/3 of all terrorism in the US since 2001 has been right-wing. A majority of that white supremacist.
the Latino commercial reflects reality. It is in no way dishonest.
Atreus is right on the point he was making: both groups have used anecdotes and misleading rhetoric to further their agenda. While you say "this is happening" for that ad, the same can be said about Trump's rhetoric. Looking at the data, there is a kernel of truth to the illegals = worse crime (i.e. worse than both legal immigrants and majority white population), and their descendants are worse than that preceding generation. Liberals already indicate they don't feel either that it will change any time soon as they peddle nonsense such as implicit racism testing as "proof" there's rampant racism to make excuses for giving preferences in a number of areas for certain minorities.

Bring forth the alleged data.
First graph: Texas demographics include a considerable amount of blacks and Hispanics. I'm positive illegals must be higher on some of the serious crimes if that is accounted for, and obviously the legal and illegal comparison is readily apparent in the graph.
Next graph: Pew shows the pattern where 2nd generation immigrants are worse than those who first came.
That in no way supports your original assertion- "Looking at the data, there is a kernel of truth to the illegals = worse crime (i.e. worse than both legal immigrants and majority white population)"
What are you trying to say with this graph? Seems like second generation commit crimes a little bit more often than native born people from 13-15(ish) then at an equal or slightly lower rate than native born people.First graph: Texas demographics include a considerable amount of blacks and Hispanics.

I don't get your point.
Get rid of the Texan Hispanics and blacks from the "native born" data and illegals will be worse.
The veil just dropped to reveal a hood, I think.This is your favorite line of bullshit. We can't do that because native blacks & hispanics are part of us, part of America. The whole notion is thinly veiled racism.
Native born includes Hispanics and blacks, which makes it misleading. Blacks alone are responsible for a ridiculous amount of crime here.
I just saw that, color me SHOCKED Faux won't run anything Dump want's. CNN refused to air it at all and NBC ran it during last nights Packers/Patriots game which prompted a huge negative reaction and response. Perhaps Fox is afraid of losing ad revenue if the offensive nature makes Latino's pledge to not buy anything ever advertised on Fox.NBC & Fox have decided to stop airing an (edited version) of the commercial

Yes it obviously does unless you can show me they presented the data poorly (i.e. it doesn't match with Texas demographics). Get rid of the Texan Hispanics and blacks from the "native born" data and illegals will be worse. And obviously the illegal and legal distinction is readily apparent. We want legal immigration, not illegal!
‘Native born crime statistics would be lower if you stopped counting those native born people who commit crimes!’

Fox? Oh, my.
When your ad is to racist for fox it might actually be racist.
Al Gore brought up Willie Horton in the primaries and no one said a word.
His release and new crimes were and are fact.
The info in Trump's ad is also factual.
Truth is a defence against defamation in the USA.
White males commit the majority of financial/white-collar crime and are profiled for it according to the FBI, should they be returned to Europe or subjected to unjust prosecution too?Native born includes Hispanics and blacks, which makes it misleading.

From the article:
"Thirty years ago, George H.W. Bush released his infamous fear-mongering, racist ad on Willie Horton.
This Trump ad is worse. Far worse."
