"Hate" is a buzz word used by youth. I have noticed that the less educated, obviously with limited vocabulary, are the more likely it is used. The anti-Trumps rely heavily on that word.

Their other favorite buzz words are: bigot, racist, brown people, etc. and immediately defines who and what they are. I don't think most have a clue what the definition of a word is.

Seriously, Kasich? Get a clue!

Just read the post above mine. I guess not everyone had biology? We must do better at educating our youth.
It is really reflective of the air of superiority surrounding trump followers that they describe anyone who disagrees with them in this manner. And, it is wrong.

-"Hate' is not a word just used by youth
-if someone thinks that someone else is spreading a message that is bigoted, racist, etc... and they use those words to describe it... how does that "immediately defines who and what they are"? Could you explain exactly who and what you think they are for those of us who, in your words, have limited vocabulary and need better education?
-calling someone an animal has been used historically to belittle the person they are talking about. trump followers are animals. Just talkin' about biology, right?

Did he? Or did he know that by cancelling he would get far more exposure than by having another rally? Chicago isn't going to vote for him anyway.

Look at the threads complaining that Trump drained all the media away from Kasich. Unfortunately there is a decent segment of voters that vote upon name exposure.

Who gets to decide the "rhetoric" that has a place? The majority, the mob, the most violent?

The establishment firmly stands on the side of the violent protesters. This isn't news. Cruz came out in support of them too.

we ALL need to wake up and smell the coffee.

kasich is adored by the media, which should tell you all you need to know.

plus, his pandering "c'mon people, we can do better on immigration" grates on my last nerve. What other laws on the books might he want to ignore? Ohio has a lot of blue collar workers, and kasich is NOT BEING FAIR.

when you have a big party type (romney) come on and speak against ONE candidate for about an hour or so, you know how to vote.

globalist BS, and we don't have to take it.

The well organized protesters shut down free speech because they disagree with the candidate.

Is this what our country is about now?
Trump was allowed to speak but chose not to. Whether he choked at the prospect of hecklers at his rally or calculated a greater reward for cancelling, it was his decision.

When people act like animals, that's exactly what they should be called, except that would be an insult to animals. Just ask anyone who attended the Trump rally with their families. There were kids at that rally. The foul language, aggressive behavior and signage all promoting the very hate they say they are against does the protesters no favors.

I know you are trying to foment some type of racial indignation here. The actions by the protesters was reprehensible, and that goes for all - whether they were black, white or brown.
