Muslim And Hispanic Students In Kansas Allegedly Beat By Man Yelling 'Trump, Trump, Trump!'

Source: Huffington Post

A Muslim college student in Kansas says he and his friend were attacked Saturday by a man who called them "brown trash" and chanted in support of GOP presidential front-runner Donald Trump.

Khondoker Usama, 23, is student body vice president at Wichita State University and originally from Bangladesh. He said he and his friend, who is Hispanic, were getting gas early Saturday when they noticed a man in his 20s or 30s yelling racial epithets at a black man and accusing him of being a "lazy ass."

The guy then turned his attention to the students, shouting about how Trump will win the election, according to Usama.

"You want to live in this country, you better leave," the man reportedly told Usama and his friend, according to The Wichita Eagle.

... happened at a gas station.

That's fundamentally the problem the racists have. They are cowardly bullies who depend on their white privilege to shield them from competition and consequences. As that shield gets less secure they panic.

a primitive mindset that isn't a sign of higher brain power and reasoning. It is one that simplifies everything and sees no variable. Very binary and robotic.

The violence-prone citizens believe they have license. The Trump campaign, while not exclusively to blame, is nevertheless largely responsible.

Unfortunately, these incidents will continue to take place with increasing frequency.

Our Early Ancestors originate from AFRICA. We ALL descend from one SINGLE group of Ancestors. As they migrated (from Africa) through the Northern Hemisphere, that mutated gene gradually morphed among our ancestors into lighter white skin as a result of environmental conditions. This oddity of nature in the Human race has now manifested into major social/political upheaval, causing stress, violence and misunderstanding. We are ALL the same genetically 99.5%. We ALL DESCEND from one single group of humans. Our early ancestors had shades of black and brown skin. This ignorance of our anthropological history has propelled us to use a fluke of nature as an excuse of superiority that is artificial/fake. We are all the same people. The sooner we learn this and drop the myth that skin color is a separate race, the better off we will all be. Our diversity is due to environment and how our Ancestors adapted to it, establishing ethnicity and culture. However, we are all brothers and sisters of ONE RACE, Humans.

White supremacy isn't getting the fear and respect that it used to have.
