Keep drinking that Kool-Aid, boys and girls; you have no idea how ridiculous you look to those outside your privileged little club.

It wasn't because she was Muslim, it was because she was making a Muslim spectacle of herself.

She has to be a professional agitator. Who would want to be on the spot like that and go to work the next day? Truth will come out. I am sure she has done it in the past.

When you have zero manners, no respect for anyone, and only care about yourself, I'm not surprised that would be your response to the fact that everyone else was sitting except these two.

Where is the entirety of the video? They show literally a few seconds of her standing up and then it cuts to her being ejected. There is no audio of her or the people around her, just the CNN guy telling us what allegedly happened (cause the press has been so honest about Trump this whole time ) The woman even said in her interview with Don Lemon that she never felt threatened, that the people around her were "lovely" to her and sharing their popcorn. Obviously people not immediately near her just saw there was a commotion and that security had to eject somebody. Of course they were shouting and happy that a perceived protester was getting the boot. Trump rallies have been interrupted every week for the last few months, with not one but five or six disruptions in an hour. The patience of his supporters has been worn thin; anyone's would be. It sounds like some of you were born yesterday when it comes to the tactics that agitators use.

His rallies remind me of Sarah Palin's in 2008, when she worked up the crowds against Obama to the point where people were shouting, "Kill him! Kill him!" This is what right wing politics has become.
The problem with Republicans (and I'd like to think of myself as a Rockefeller) is that more and more it is turning into the Beast from the Morton Downey Jr. show. I never watched it as I was far too young at the time but the Beast was the name for Morton's frothing at the mouth crowd who was just as wild (if not more than) he was. I see Trump and his supporters as just that. And plus most of their stances are wrong and hate-mongering.

Yep, the Beast is at it again.

That being said this woman was harassed as she was escorted out and frankly escorting her out for standing up is ridiculous. I don't see how any decent human could justify such behavior. Whether she belonged there or not, what happened to her just further alienates rational people from the Trump campaign.
Here's where I understand why she was thrown out. I'm not sure what security was told but I do work security at events and from time to time, we have to tell people to sit down for "excessive standing" which some fans don't get at all. I'm thinking perhaps that had something to do with that. That said, she don't deserve comments like say "sand n-word" being yelled at her, despite whatever she did.

Rockefeller Republican? and you are proud to admit that here in the open? .......of all the RINOS in history, your favorite is Rockefeller? LOL......you should feel at home in the Democrat Party.



All political rallies act that way and nobody in the crowd likes it when the opposition comes and disrupt the event and the candidate they support .....but I guess you hold the Trump supporters to a different standards.




Enforcing our immigration laws is not hate-mongering....its the law.......nice try.

This farcical candidate is bringing out the worst that America has to offer.
She was thrown out because she stood up and blocked other people's view.

You can see that clearly in the video of her removal.

And Muslims should be thrown out anyway.

They should be thrown out of this country.

Their religion calls for the killing, converting or suppression of all infidels and is completely incompatible with personal freedom, democracy and basic human rights.

Hmm, no wonder you liberals love them.

I would not be comfortable flying on her plane. But then if they didn't hire her she would have complained of discrimination. I wonder if she refuses to serve alcohol on her flights like the Muslim truckers and cabbies who refused to transport alcohol.
