The retweet came two days after a half-dozen white attendees at a Trump rally shoved, tackled, punched and kicked a black protester who disrupted the business mogul’s speech.
“Maybe he should have been roughed up because it was absolutely disgusting what he was doing,” Trump said Sunday morning on Fox News, less than 24 hours after his campaign said it “does not condone” the physical altercation.
It is amazing that the man has some stereotyping and bigotry issues, to put it mildly, and says these things with apparent impunity.

They love it.
Does his Made-in-China merchandise include shirts - perhaps shirts in a lovely brown color?
No, I wasn't referring to the FBI. I was referring to online sites that were left leaning. When I googled, I focused on who was talking about the Trump tweet.
He's a "white supremacist"? What proof do you have of this?
Trump may not be one, but the source of the graphic is a tweet account that has this charming blurb: "Should have listened to the Austrian chap with the little moustache."
They must be slow learners because their support of Obama in 2012 was over 90% for blacks, over 85% for Muslims, over 70% for Hispanics and Asians. Shockingly, these figures are more or less the same as what Kerry and Gore got. Where is this alleged trend, again?

Since the Democrats and Rubio support amnesty which will hurt blacks the most, there are blacks trying to and getting the word out on Trump and his stand on illegal immigration and jobs. I just looked at a YouTube by Diamond and Silk and they had a youtube posted on 20 Nov 15 and it has had almost 9,000 hits already and there is almost a black man doing videos and his website is called "Whatever happened to commonsense" and he sure isn't talking about electing another Democrat. There will be legal Hispanics that support Trump, some Asians, maybe all of them and a fair share of Democrats that are emptied handed right now.

What minority and I'm not limiting this to blacks ~ is going to vote for the Fuhrer?
He might need a vote or two from someone other than the 50+ white crowd.
I don't know. Just maybe.
We have been through this before and Trump is well represented among minorities. You can "google" just as easily as I can or go back and look at one of hundreds of threads about the same subject.

Trump's tweet is wrong no matter how you slice it.
She'd get 99.99 of the AA vote in a hypothetical matchup with Clown Trump. You can rest assured of that now.
Is that what you got out of that tweet? That 97% of blacks are killers? Trumps fans can't even read phony statistics correctly.

That said, good to see the FBI link.
I know what you are talking about. Other than the FBI link, everything I found was the liberal rags which I don't waste my time with. It took me awhile to figure out to stay clear of them after doing my own research.
There is still no word on the inaccuracy from the Trump campaign. He made a mistake or misread something.

Mick, I understand that the single biggest block of voters for Obama in 2012 was Asian-Americans. They're a pretty affluent group.
that and the bureau san francisco doesn't even exist. Doesn't matter to Trump supporters though, they will make up some excuse for him.
This only serves to reinforce my belief that Trump cannot get elected. Realistically, a certain amount of people are willing to suspend belief in reality and swallow things that simply are not true because they love Trump (ironically, they are probably those calling others 'bots').
But it is becoming more and more evident that the guy makes things up, quotes nonexistent facts and over-exaggerates big time. There is simply no way he could get over 50% of the country to follow him down the lie-ridden path. Just goes to the old adage--you can fool some of the people all of the time...
I have faith that more Americans care about someone who is realistic and credible (not just tells the truth as he sees it). The only supporters he is gaining are the ones who drop off out of the Carson train (who at least admitted he saw the Palestinians cheering and not the Patersonians). He won't gain new supporters with additional lies designed to scare people.

I hope to God you're right, Because from where I'm sitting, the year 1932 is beginning to take on quite the significance.

More like Orwell's 1984, perhaps? I'm no Trump supporter, but there is a significant backlash against Obama's "fundamentally transforming the United States of America" whether some want to admit it or not.
The tweet has an image with the following stats:
The image shows a masked, dark-skinned man with a handgun and a set of points, ostensibly about deaths in 2015 (odd since no crime stats have been released for 2015)
"Blacks killed by whites -- 2%"
"Blacks killed by police -- 1%"
"Whites killed by police -- 3%"
"Whites killed by whites -- 16%"
"Whites killed by blacks -- 81%"
"Blacks killed by blacks -- 97%’
The image cites the "Crime Statistics Bureau - San Francisco"
Here's the real data from the FBI for 2014
Interracial homicides
"Blacks killed by whites"---8%
"Blacks killed by blacks"---90%
"Whites killed by whites"--82%
"Whites killed by blacks"---5%.
(a discussion of deaths involving police is on the Politifact link)
oops

Trump tweets fake crime stats ripped from a neo-nazi tweet
