The incident in your link happened at a gas station in KS, NOT at a Trump rally. Yeah, I know KS is a red state with a few backwoods rednecks in residence there. There is also a large Middle-Eastern population there, especially among business owners in the smaller cities and towns which would have turned into ghost towns by now without that group immigrating there in the past 15-20 years. I just stayed in a large motor lodge in KS in early November run by a Pakistani family and that hotel is one of many in KS run by Middle Eastern families. Both the husband and wife were very friendly and the husband even helped me unload my bags into my room (situated right in front of my car) when I reported to him that a 6’6″ “white” drunken, age 40ish male (it turned out he was a “regular” nuisance in town) was drinking out of a paper bag on the curb and started to walk towards me when I first opened my trunk. I only stay in motor lodges on the ground floor where I can park my car right outside my door or window so am used dealing to nonsensical stuff like this (especially in small towns). Overall, the room was huge, the hotel was well-maintained and the breakfast was nice and I would stay there again due to its reasonable price and helpful owners.
I am a bit troubled that the only “witness” to the purported “Trump comments” made by the attacker were the Muslim kid who saw his friend get attacked and tried to break up the fight. That kid’s statements that the attacker mentioned Trump as a reason they should “go home” was quoted in the article. Since he is presumably “Muslim,” how reliable is that comment if he may have been under the mistaken impression that he could be deported if Trump is elected? It’s very possible that BOTH of these kids actually grew up in KS and were there legally. I mean, KS is not exactly a “tourist trap” :=0
The young reporter “Amanda” spun the article to imply that it was somehow Trump’s fault that people are acting like this in public when Trump was nowhere to be found.
Yes, it’s too bad that some people who call themselves “Trump supporters” are so ignorant that they believe as if Trump is some sort of “deity” whom they will “worship” and who, if elected, will fix all their problems in life. Some of them no doubt seem to enjoy “quoting” Trump (out of context, of course) to anyone who will listen. Trump has an apparent “charisma” among his so-called “supporters” who reside in regions of the country which have experienced an unfortunate long-term economic downturn simply because that’s where the campaign trail is right now. It’s going to be interesting to see how Trump’s rallies in CA, WA and OR turn out.
There is a link in your KS article about a homeless man who was beat up by two Boston attackers who were nothing more than “white thugs,” IMO.
“White thuggery” also seems to be a culture unto itself now. I’ve even seen it among adult women residing in well-known “blue states.” In one “blue state” I visited last year, I have never seen so many “white-appearing” (mostly very “chubby”) scantily-dressed and heavily-tattooed young women in my life all shopping in one store at one time, many with up to five young kids in tow! It was shocking to me. I couldn’t imagine in a million years presenting myself in public as they do when I was that age … or ANY age, for that matter!
I think various “American subcultures” (of dress, action and thought) all existed long before Trump came onto the scene. The MSM is now giving Trump wa-a–a-y too much credit for sh!t happening which he has absolutely no control over :=0
