Protesters attack disabled Trump supporter for wearing a BUTTON. The guy is in a wheelchair.
So typical of the liberals to turn violent when opposing "violence" (a person with a disability in this case).

Because the thread is trying to convey that "religious people and conservatives are like that", and you see people responding also making such a false assumption...

Well, I saw some verbal attacks in the video, not physical. but don't know what he did to bring on those verbal attacks. I doubt it was just a button.
Also, it isn't just liberal that are anti-Trump. The "Never Trump: movement are conservative republicans.

So, do you think it's fair to claim this is "typical of the liberals", in light of this observation:

Which is precisely what you have done here.
We are being inundated with threads claiming all "religious people and conservatives are evil, blah, blah blah" and they put some example of some conservatives doing such things and generalize claiming every conservative and religious person is the same. These are threads that are obviously trying to attack anyone who is not a liberal.

(Since the other thread was closed because it included a video that had been already posted, but since the attack on the man in a wheelchair hasn't been posted, here is that link and video without the second one. )

It seems these attacks are more and more common, but you have some people proclaiming that only one side is resorting to this but videos like this one show a different story.
In the video you can see that within the groups attacking this man one of them has a sign that says "No racism, no fascism, no Trump". Who are the people going around with these signs? Then in that same video it can be seen how several of the people that are around that sign get on with their attacking verbally this man, and telling him he must be ashamed of himself" and also using other insults...
If the signs these people are using are to proclaim that "Trump is a racist, and a fascist" and they are attacking this man telling him he should be ashamed of himself, for what reason would that be?... You think they were talking about sports?... Or about the latest "survivor"?...
The man is obviously in a wheelchair, you can see it by the angle everyone else is at. Then there is the fact this man is sitting with both legs closed together which is how disabled people who can't use their legs normally sit. Then you also have the fact that he seems to be using some special shoes of soft but warm material that a person who has the use of their legs would not be using because those shoes would simply disintegrate if anyone tried to walk with them.

No, that is what the man in the wheelchair posted, it's not what I wrote... I can't answer for what he wrote, but I am posting what he wrote and the video to show proof that some liberals are doing the very same thing they claim to be fighting against...

Which is pointing to the people in the video... I didn't write "all Liberals attack a man in a wheelchair"...
Do you understand the difference?...

Right wing politics and religion have blurred into one big bigoted mess of fear and loathing! I have a feeling that this kind of stunt is only the "tip of the ice berg" of what the religious right is capable of, when it comes to their thinking that doing their job, and/or civic duty, violates their closely held "religious beliefs" if it means they have to assist people with different political views.
Shaking my head and wondering what's going to happen when Hillary wins the presidency!!!!

While I have been one to admit that I believe Trump appeals to the lowest common denominators among us, it appears that I was incorrect in that what really draws people to Trump is the authoritarian nature of his message. Authoritarian messages do not just appeal to Republicans, as is stated in the article, but it does seem as though they have the data to suggest authoritarians are moving further to the Right.

Video: Woman harasses man using food stamps.
I don't know where people get off harassing someone else. Republicans don't care about most people. No help for you but once you reach military age it's off to war you go hooray. But if you get injured they say screw you. Many elderly vets and disable people collect benefits from the government as do many working people. What give someone else the right to harass another person over social programs that help the less fortunate is beyond me.

Some "2 wrongs, make a right" type BS???

What i did is post evidence that there are liberals who do the same things you see some ATS liberal members claim they are fighting against and that "only conservatives and religious people do these things"...
i wonder why you didn't respond in the same manner to the threads in which some ATS liberals are attacking everyone who is not a liberal?... Hummm... You targeted my post....maybe bias in your part?...naaaa....right?...
