The students, who were standing silently at the top of bleachers, were visibly upset as they were escorted out by Secret Service agents at Valdosta State University, The Des Moines Register reports. “They said, ‘This is Trump’s property; it’s a private event.’ But I paid my tuition to be here,” said Tahjila Davis, 19.
Why in the world would he have the black students removed? Why is this okay to Trump supporters?
The sight of the students, who were visibly upset, being led outside by law enforcement officials created a stir at a university that was a whites-only campus until 1963.
Because protestors get ejected from campaign rallies all the time. Folks are there to hear or support a candidate, therefore staff doesn't generally put up with too much. They should be protesting outside anyway.

Personally i doubt if they were there to get informed (but hey who knows).
As far as kudos. Maybe they shouldn't have been causing a disturbance and cursing in the arena.
Curious. Why do you think they were there? Why not at the beach or a frat party or at the mall instead? You overestimate the shallowness of a younger, more active and more informed generation than was ours. Maybe you don't agree with the fact that they come out of Universities that are constantly touted as liberal (even by so called conservatives that attended 'Universities') but nothing wrong with the seeds being planted and letting nature take it's course.

I believe they were probably there because of political interests. I believe they went to protest someone who they believe is bad. Better than at a frat party or hanging out at the mall I agree.

It shows they are politically aware and politically engaged. And a young, diverse group of Millennials engaged in the democratic process is not good news for the GOP, whose core is old white people.

Not a bad thing for any of us. Both young Reps and Dems will be the future, and the more informed and active the better.

While preparing for the rally and just prior to the arrival of Mr Trump the public was being allowed to enter the arena. During that time frame there were 30-40 students in the complex mostly young adults, some of which were causing a disturbance in the arena. It was confirmed by the Trump detail and local law enforcement that these students were using profanity and were asked to leave the complex.

I am not surprised but if they really were just calmly sitting in the audience I doubt if they would have been noticed enough to be ejected.
