Hes been doing really well in NC. Solid red in the general. I doubt Hillary will even bother campaigning there.
Way too early to put NC in the GOP column in November. And NC is not "solid red" in Presidential elections. Obama barely won it in 2008 and Romney barely won it in 2012.
There are actually several videos of the incident.
And the guy who got punched doesn't say they went to cause trouble. He said they went as an experiment. To see what would happen. They weren't violent in any way.
It's troubling that you seem to be blaming the victim.
Don't you think the security officers should have detained the person who threw the punch?
Nope.
I am definitely against adults fighting. There is no cause for it. And if this was really a case of someone getting punched, then the guy who did the punching should have been arrested.
With that said the victim went with a group of people who lied to get into a rally specifically to disrupt it. He does bear some responsibility for what happened.

True about this. Elections are very close in NC. But I will make this prediction..
If Hillary Clinton is on the ballot, then it doesn't matter who the GOP runs, NC will be red.

The guy that does the punching, John McGraw, was charged. And no the victim is not responsible for getting punched in the face by John McGraw.
Here's something also/more disturbing. When police are being questioned for going after the victim instead of the guy doing the punching, they say two things: 1. They didn't see it, but 2.
“Both the officers are looking down [in the video] when the camera phone turns away when the guy punches,” Swain said. “If we had stayed and tried to reason things out right there it would have gotten very bad.”
It appears the police are more afraid of the Trump supporters! How ugly is that? I'm not surprised, these Trump supporters appear like animals but for the police to go after the victim because they fear the aggressors is a whole new level.

That's all I'm saying, the guy who sucker-punched another should have been arrested. I don't understand why he wasn't.
A North Carolina county sheriff’s office said Thursday it is investigating why its officers arrested a protester who was struck in the face at a Donald Trump rally — but not the man who struck him–one of several incidents that highlighted the challenges to law enforcement in maintaining order at Mr. Trump’s events.
Location, location, location. Blacks are still treated like second class citizens in the deep south.
I lived in Rhode Island for some time (hint: it is not in the deep south). You could go a week and literally don't see a SINGLE black folk. And we all know how progressive New England is, don't we? They must be hiding it from blacks.
