"A Time magazine photographer trying to document the exit of dozens of black protesters from the rally in southwestern Radford, Virginia, was grabbed by the neck and shoved to the ground by a U.S. Secret Service agent."
If this is accurate the level of response was inappropriate:
"Time photographer Chris Morris was on the fringe of an enclosed media section when he was seized by an agent from the Secret Service, which has the job of protecting the U.S. president and some White House candidates.
"I stepped 18 inches out of the (press) pen and then he grabbed me by the neck and started choking me and then he slammed me to the ground," Morris told CNN at the scene."
According to the article the Secret Service is looking into it, which is good. The Secret Service is not there to do event security guard duty, if the photographer's action was not a threat to Trump the agent had no business interfering.
However, bottom line, a presidental candidate encouraging violence at his events is just appalling.

You forgot to mention that the photographer was taken down by a secret service agent. Nice attempt to pin it on a Trump supporter though. We shouldn't expect anything less from the anti-Trump crowd.
On my way to vote for Trump!
Trump haters are such vicious people lol I wonder if they are like this away from a keyboard . Just observing some comments from all the I hate Trump posts . Yay go vote for Mr Trump

If you had bothered to click on the link, the article does explain that, don't blame/accuse me for the headline!
America is great but Trump leaving would make it so much greater.
What these Trump fans don't realize is by nominating this despicable individual, they're handing the keys to the White House to Bill and Hillary again.

No surprise there are rumors of Herr Trumpenstein having mob connections!

Lay down with dogs, wake up with fleas... viciousness begets viciousness, so if trump haters are vicious, they learned from the master and all his sycophants. But, then, I don't think trump 'haters' and nearly as vicious as trump supporters.
No, they are just going to insult and make fun of you, with no substance to their replies, in imitation of their hero.
Exactly. Notice how not a single Trump supporter addressed the topic. They can't defend Trump's actions so they deflect.
