You should be ashamed of yourself.

You are either lying or you didn't actually watch the video.

It is clear a person who was just chanting "love trumps hate" took a lighter and was flicking it to the girl's hair. The girl's hair started smoking and a man started to swat at her hair to put it out.

Don't put partisan politics ahead of blatant truths.

I'm glad idiots are so willing to identify themselves. It makes giving credibility to certain posts much easier, don't ya think?
It was Putin!!!!

Just like the msm, you are throwing your credibility away for absolutely nothing.

If you actually watch the video you might have a different opinion.

Thankfully, everyone kept their cool (no pun intended) on both sides. Except for the immolater, I have respect for the way both sides behaved in what could have been an inflammatory situation (pun definitely intended) :-)

Have you ever seen a woman get too close to the flame of a candle and have her hair start on fire? There is no "visible fire" immediately.

Geeze, talk about denial.

So you all think that with rallies / protests of millions of people there won't be some bad apples?

I think you can see the woman, a black or navy blue hat with white lettering, she reaches in but then disappears. What a disgusting POS. That cowardly action has no place at a protest.

Actually she's at the end of the video, looking around dumbfounded standing behind the 2 that have to apologize for her coward @ss.

Are you excusing this as a numbers problem?

Personally, I don't believe this represents the majority of Democrats. In fact, I know it doesn't. But that doesn't excuse what that woman did and doesn't excuse the bad behavior we've been seeing for months against people who supported Trump.

I would think regardless of the person you voted for, you'd be castigating this type of thing instead of asking if people shouldn't expect there will be some bad apples given the size of the crowd.

"Cull your herd. Leftist anti Trumper sets girl on fire"

It's pretty disheartening when you can't even go to a rally of your choice anymore. Thankfully, someone is going to be charged, it's only a matter of time.
