Not true. Take a look at the videos of that rally. People where popping to their feet often during Trump's speech and waving signs that obstructive views. None of those people were thrown out. It's just a matter of time at one of his rallies. He invites it with stuff like: "Take his coat and throw him out in the freezing cold." "maybe he should have been roughed up."
It was true. There were numerous Muslims there specifically to disrupting the event. It's been well documented above. Trump had them all thrown out. This is what he should of done. The 1000s who came to this event were not there to listen to these Muslim activists from Charlotte.
Despite that, nobody was harmed in Rock Hill. That is just FUD being spread by those who don't like that Trump is now attracting huge diverse crowds.
Unfortunately for you John, it is. Decades of pandering to xenophobes has come back to bite the GOP in the butt.
Its a sure sign of desperation when a DNC partisan is quoting the opinion of a GOP politician and competitor to Trump in order to try and make a point.
As far as being bitten in the butt, the GOP has sent more than a 1000 DNC politicians home over the last 4 years. The only thing they have left is the Presidency and a year from now they won't even have that.
Hillary kicked out people from her events.
Or do you even know that ?
Oh come on Tex. We all know that protesters can be removed from a political venue. It's not IF you do it, It's HOW you do it and Trump's methods are extremely nasty and mean spirited. Not to mention how ugly his supporters are to the protesters. They are a hair trigger from ripping the protesters to pieces.
Mark my words, there will be an ugly, violent, incident as Trump's campaign ramps up when more and more people protest his message and his stated agenda.
Trump's rallies are the political equivalent to a bic lighter and a can of gasoline and that's the way he wants it.
He's playing to those apprehensions for political gain and nothing more. That woman was not an immigrant. She is an American citizen. There's a big difference. American citizens are afforded non violent protest, especially at political events, under the first amendment. Sure they can be removed when they protest and disrupt, but removed with respect, for it is each and every American citizen's right to protest. Just as sacrosanct as the rights afforded by the 2nd amendment. It is completely unamerican to drop people to the ground and punch, kick and spit on someone just for protesting. It is vile to shout the evil nasty things to that woman by the men in the crowd as she was being led out. It shows the character of Trump's movement and it is scary, frankly.
I do not see Trump or his supporters treating the protesters with respect at any of his political venues. This, in and of itself, does not bode well for the future, Just based on recent history. I see a very large portion of the country protesting against a Trump administration and his unworkable, hateful policies if he were to be elected.
Yeledaf, you are a reasonable poster here on CD in my eyes, but I ask you, honestly.....
Do you have any idea of the world wide repercussions towards America if we officially announce that all 1.6 billion people of Muslim faith are banned from entry? Our economy would collapse overnight and we would become a worldwide pariah.
Do you have any idea of the logistics of forcefully rounding up 11-15 million people and deporting them to.......somewhere?
Do you really believe that Mexico will hand over in excess of 100 billion dollars with a smile to build a wall with the express purpose of keeping them out?
Do you think China will let us dictate the value of their money and slap economy ruining tariffs on their exports?
Do you think Americans used to cheap products will stand for the price of Chinese products to double or triple?
Not a chance any of that will happen but Trump supporters suck it up and cheer for more.
I never realized how stupid a sizable portion of the American population was nor how gullible.
If Trump's stated policies are instituted, then Radical Islam will have won. We will be hated by the rest of the civilized world and all nations will be our enemies. This is how you destroy the most powerful nation in the world by having it destroy it's own values and foundations through fear and mistrust.
I will drag this 70s-some year old body to the front lines of protesters if and when that happens.
ALL politicians make EVERY public statement for political gain. The likelihood of any of Trump's statements coming to fruition is remote. But regardless of who is eventually elected President, the cultural changes -- and the threat to our way of life -- will grow exponentially if our country does not address, firmly and comprehensively, its policies regarding immigration. The fact that Trump's extremism resonates with so many Americans -- who are less stupid and gullible than worried -- is a direct result of our having drifted so far to the left that a course correction is needed. Obviously, Trump is not the answer. Neither, however, are the status quo of open borders and universal amnesty -- particularly when it is offered to those who hate us.
The usage of special markings to forcefully distinguish Jews from the rest of the population was a practice first introduced by Muslims... it started with Umayyad Caliph Umar II in early 8th century.
I know it's shocking, right? Muslims being intolerant of other people and other religions.
