Trump is coming to Phoenix again do you think the haters will try to shut him down?

Moderator cut: .

I hope not. I don't support the actions of those people who blocked Shea Blvd. That was completely wrong. Trump should have the right to speak in a peaceful arena and his supporters should have access to attend his event without fear of violence or harassment.

I wish the people who protest Trump show the same enthusiasm by actually VOTING!!! Voting for Hillary will hurt Trump a lot more than calling him names, starting fights and blocking access to his events. Hispanic voting turnout has traditionally been quite poor in this state despite the large number of eligible Hispanic residents. And there is truly no excuse for not voting particularly with early ballot being available. Seriously, you literally sign up and they mail you a ballot. You don't have to wait in lines or cite voter suppression as an excuse. Donald Trump is counting on Hispanics showing the same voter apathy in the past. If Latino's really want to prove Trump wrong, then vote. If Trump wins in Arizona, you can thank poor Hispanic turnout once again.

Very well-written.

I dislike Trump just as much as the next person but inciting riots isn't the way to stop him.

The reason Arizona goes red in most of the elections is many republicans vote but many democrats and independents don't vote, it's not just Hispanics being apathetic.

I agree but as a Hispanic American, we can't keep making excuses for my people. We make up over a 1/3 of this state. Nearly 1/4 of the state are comprised of Hispanic residents who are eligible to vote. Here we have a politician who is openly calling you out. What more incentive do you need to vote? Does Trump need a tattoo on his forehead saying "Hispanics are dumb" to incite them to vote? LOL I say that tongue in cheek of course but seriously, if that doesn't motivate you to vote, I don't know what will. At some point, you have to applaud conservatives. You have to respect their resolve and tenacity when it comes to voting. They will turn out in great numbers and vote in this election.

Trump doesn't help any when he sees or hears the violence happening at his rallies and his comment is, "Isn't this exciting?"

I don't agree with the violence either but Trump could have stopped it before it got this far.

Trumps biggest group of supporters is uneducated white people. An unfortunately large group in AZ so I am sure many will attend.

My father-in-law has a PhD and is 1/2 hispanic. He supports Trump.

Great generalization there buddy...
