This is just ONE example of how we're gonna be GREAT again!

How dare he show up at Trump's rally and be all.... BLACK and everything.

PURPOSEFULLY slides over to get that punch in. What a piece of shit.

because the officers there apparently didn't think HE committed a crime of assault.

I'm worried one of these delta bravo Trump supporters is going to hurt someone really badly.

Peace

It's going to happen. It's just a matter of time. And I so hope it doesn't happen. "I told you so" is not very satisfying when innocent people, and families are involved.

Isn't that the normal procedure in these cases?

They'd have shot the guy dead if it weren't for those pesky things.

It happens all too often.

This is nothing to joke about or take lightly. Between this stuff and the raising of the hand at a Trump rally, this is becoming more like Nazi Germany every day. As a Jew who lost family before and during WWII, I am appalled by this behavior and it should be condemned by everyone, including the smug ones who populate this website.

I've found out why people laugh. They laugh because it hurts... because it's the only thing that'll make it stop hurting.

We've seen this before, or we've read about it in history books. Drumpf is a narcissist, an extreme egotist, a megalomaniac, a xenophobe, a racist, misogynist, and just an all around freak.

The real definition of "appalled" would be if he actually became president.

Not everyone has his talent, though, so they can only do what they can.

the shirts will be 'brown'.Be ready folks.

Good grief, the bully is a 78 y/o!

Justice Be done!

the guy would be free and clear. The police only arrested them because they were pressured. They should have handled it immediately, but they had to arrest the black man.

"The Cumberland County Sheriff’s Office earlier told the Wall Street Journal it was investigating why officers arrested the protester but not the man who punched him in the face."

It's really scary that Rump is stirring up the worst in America.

Either way, they assailant and officer need to be held to account for their actions.

I suggest you clean your rose colored glasses.

and we need to call it out every time we see it.

So typical! They and Trump are way too often a disgrace to this country's ideals. Some cops are OK, but Trump is uniformly awful.

... and so is every POS that supports him. And FUCK that cop.

Well stated!

Thanks for posting, EarlG

"Go Home N*gga"

That is even worse, I think. It can do more damage--and it implies the man meant to hit him so hard that he didn't want to risk hurting his own hand doing it.

The old jerk bragged to Inside Edition that they would probably kill the protester next time they see him. I hope they throw the book at him.

(I know we are not suppose to say this, but the truth needs to be said)
how racist and evil-thinking Trump supporters in the R party have shown themselves to be.

him receive a felony conviction and have his right to vote taken away!!!

Well said!

It's about time to call him what he is.

Remember trumps racist birther crap.

Remember how Obama called out Trump at the White House correspondence dinner (that so happened to be the night he ordered the raid to take out bin laden - successfully). Obama was amazing talking about trump at that dinner. Drumpf didn't like that truth being told, one bit.

It's been a long time since I've seen this. Brings back great memories.

I remember watching Der Donald's face get redder and redder with each zinger.

Who knows what would happen inside these hate rallies if all cameras were confiscated on entry.

but don't give them any ideas.

when Trump shows up at UiC? I've already heard of quite a few protests being planned. There's also 40,000+ signatures on the petition in protest of the Trump rally. It's really been heating up.

The sheriff’s office is also conducting an internal investigation to determine why its officers, immediately after the alleged assault, grabbed the protester and not the man who allegedly threw the punch.

In announcing the arrest, Sheriff Earl Butler said, “No one should be subjected to such a cowardly, unprovoked act as that committed by McGraw. Regardless of political affiliation, speech, race, national origin, color, gender, bad reputation, prior acts, or political demonstration, no other citizen has the right to assault another person or to act in such a way as this defendant did.”

For the moment, we have to pretend like we should've "protected his rights" ... until the heat brought on by the damn lib'ral media dies down ... which we know it will ... and eventually nobody will care anymore anyways. Esp. not when Drumpf is El Presidente!

They get to wear their county uniforms etc but are then expected to follow normal requirements as if they were on official business even though it is basically a private gig. Maybe time to tell them to find a new line of work if they can't show any better judgment than that.

21st century amerikkka and it will get worse even if trumpchumps lose the election. Amerikkka is headed for very bad times racially.....again. White racist just won't die out. They keep teaching new generatios how to hate, be ignorant and stupid and show the world just how to keep genuine apartheid mentality alive and well. People trying to appear superior based on the superficiality of skin color need to get back to cave dwelling where they belong. Amerikkka, you're heading for a fall and you just won't raise enough voices to steer clear of the huge iceberg right in front of this ship of state. Disgusting people as exhibited by this coward that sucker punched this protester are EVERYTHING wrong with amerikkka. The amerikkkans following trump have their heads stuck so far up their a.... they don't realize, NO ONE FEARS YOU!!!! You are stupid, stupid caricatures following a clown who knows how to manipulate your pea sized brains. YOU ARE WHY AMERIKKKA HAS HELD ON TO THE KKK.........
