I tried to find a different view on YouTube, and given that white protestors were also thrown out, and given that other black black people were clearly visible without being accosted, I think it is safe to say it wasn't her skin color that got her expelled, but her disruption.

All we have left is the blatant racism of the race-peddlers attempting to push this farce.

It is all smoke and mirrors. The fact that they need to distort the truth like this in order to show this supposed racism amongst trump supporters tells us that it isnt even a thing.

except that this sort of thing has been happening at his rallies since he announced his run for president.

You must have many videos of it then. Care to share?

There probably are many racist supporters of Trump—Duke and Farrakahn like him—but there are also many racist Trump detractors, who are blatantly using race for political gain. We should oppose both for the exact same reasons.

Just look at the sheep all standing in formation and looking at their shepherd Trump, hanging on to his every word. It makes me sad thinking that people actually believe a word that comes out of his mouth, or any candidates mouth for that matter.

Like you said, it's like a bunch of cattle herding together toward their slaughter, very sad in my opinion. They froth at the mouth waiting for someone to talk bad about their savior so they can attack.

Politics is so stupid, it makes people into brainless zombies.

And people fall for it. Because they WANT it to be true.

The racists are even easier to control. Poor white trash....lol yeah superior races...haha

Or

Inferior hicks. Backwards evil jerks we need to put in their place. Thats a little harder to sell but still easy.

I had a liberal woman the other day foaming at the mouth. She could have fought a revolution on her own over her hatred of southern boys and lifestyle.

They are cattle. Educated well trained slaves hungry for a master and a cause not their own.

So the assumption here is that they are shoving her out because she is black, and for no other reason?

What is more interesting to me is that one might make such a racist assumption by deriving that conclusion from no more than the skin-colours of the actors involved. If skin color is the sole basis for your accusations, then my friend, you are no different than the KKK.

My assumption is that they're assaulting this woman because they're part of a large group at a Trump rally and they feel that their behavior will not only be accepted but will be looked upon favorably by the other assholes in attendance. Do I believe race played a part in this? Yes as well as age and other traits possessed by the victim that made her, in their minds, an acceptable target for assault under those particular circumstances.

Furthermore, I assume that you are — perhaps unconsciously — making a similar assumption!

Do you believe that the attackers would have assaulted an elderly person in the same way? How about a small child? A soldier? A handicapped person?

How about an attractive white woman of the same age?

What are your thoughts on whether the attackers would have been more or less likely to assault an interloper at the rallies of other candidates?

I fully agree.

How do you know that Cruz/Dems/Rubio haven't paid someone to go to a trump rally and push people around?

How do we know they weren't lizard people sent from Jupiter to make sure Donald keeps his orange complexion going?

They could be paid plants sure, but you are skipping over some steps to go to that conclusion.

Its going to get worse.

Trumps now going to try and lose the race president so expect more events like this.

Attackers? Victim? She was smiling and taking selfies the whole time. After getting thrown out, she said it was because she was black. She got exactly what she wanted, just like the other protesters—to disrupt a Trump rally and make as big a show of it as possible, so folks like yourself can use it for race-baiting and political purpose.

No; she is not a victim. She waisted everyone's time, she disrupted the rally, disrespecting the speaker and everyone there, and got treated in kind.

I see a woman using her massive obese body to intentionally invade peoples personal space and them simply protecting themselves by pushing back.

Should they just let her plow into them?

Watch the video several times, slow it down, from the guy in the red baseball hat to the dude with black shirt and a badge logo, the man in a brown hat, the overweight white haired man, the black cap wearer doing most of the pushing, the woman with a ponytail.... They're furious. My point these Trump supporters are primed to explode. Watch it again and decide if you'd want to be in that audience; if those folks represent you than you have much to worry about.

I believe she's being shoved into them. In my day that was moshpit behavior, but no one is blaming the folks doing the shoving.

If you are assigning blame to Trump for this, then you have to assign blame for the riots in Furgison and Baltimore to Obama.

If you will do that, we can discuss this all day long.

If you won't, this thread isn't worth the electricity that was used to create it.

I leave it up to you.

I've never heard any former US presidential candidate demonize minorities nor have i ever heard them encouraging their voters to knock down their political opponents. Many foreign journalists who have attended Trump rallies have said that the atmosphere reminded them of something that was going on in Germany back in the 30s, and apparently they weren't lying.

Really? They were there in Germany in the 30's at the rallies?

As to demonizing people, take a look around at the anti-trumpers posts.

I find the blind support of Trump on this site to be extremely worrisome.

I find the blind support for establishment politicians in this country to be extremely worrisome.

This may give you a clue why Trump has the support he does.

I mean it's basically down to three candidates now. That is if you think Sanders still has a viable shot. This gives us all three choices right now unless you throw away your vote on a no-chance-in-hell independent like Gary Johnson. (Not a bad choice, but obviously has zero chance of winning.)

So, to summarize, your choices are: socialism, the Bill on the Hill show, or Trump.

Those first two choices are the equivalent of getting cancer to most voters.

And voting trump is like drinking bleach to most voter as well.

Republicans had their chance in 2012 to vote for Ron Paul as their anti establishment guy but they didnt.

But why attack her? Why give her 'what she wants?' Where's the civility the respect for oneself? You understand the anger involved is not normal, right? Protesting is an American right, and if it becomes too disruptive why not move away from it or ask the authorities to help, or the candidate asks for them to be removed (not "punched in the face") Not to mention it is incredibly stupid for Trump supporters to further her cause with this behavior (if that's what you believe) - oh well hope & change all over again. Enjoy the lies boys & girls...

Wow. The video is disturbing for a number of reasons. If she was being disruptive, or aggressive to those attending, why didn't paid security escort her out of the building? I can't hear what she's saying, or better yet, know nothing of what transpired prior to this 38 second clip. I see her taking selfies, and can only speculate it being done as evidence of people shoving her,or, to verify the response she hoped for.

Either way this will pour gas on the fire of racism discussions around the country, and used as a broad paintbrush on all in the R party.
