Dude please don't race bait. A sucker punch is bullshit, I will give you that. But it pales into comparison of what was going on in Cali... Please take your head out of the sand. They were stomping on a cop car, kicking supporters cars, spray painting on everything, and assaulting people. It was a god damn violent mob. Edit: and before you start determining sides, realize I am on the side of America. I wan't people to vote for whomever they want, without needing to feel threatened, regardless of political view.
Race bait? Wow... WTF are you talking about?? Not sure where you're going with that one... Nor did I condone anything that's happening in Cali.
Trump wants these confrontations. You pick the one city in Oregon that would have the greatest amount of protestors and the least amount of police and resources to deal with them and that would be Eugene. Protestors means press. Press means attention. The best thing that could happen is if no one showed up to protest, unfortunately that's not how it goes in Eugene. Trump is trolling them and they don't even realize it.
Trump supporters aren't some sweet innocent victims. Anyone who doesn't completely support Trump his followers immediately insult and try to shout down. They do it online, they do it at rallies. You build an atmosphere of hysteria and hysterical things happen. If you repeatedly try and provoke a reaction you can't get upset at the reaction you provoked. Look at today's bad guy in the world of Trump, Paul Ryan said he's not ready to support Trump yet. Ryan said he hopes to eventually back Trump and "to be a part of this unifying process." The first moves, though, must come from Trump, he said. Ryan said he wants Trump to unify "all wings of the Republican Party and the conservative movement" and then run a campaign that will allow Americans to "have something that they're proud to support and proud to be a part of." "And we've got a ways to go from here to there," Ryan said. Now there is complete outrage by Trump supporters. "Ryan isn't a real republican." "Ryan needs to be replaced." "Cuckservative" Ryan didn't say a damn thing wrong. Personally I think the people trying to protest and disrupt Trump rallies are morons but that's their right. Just like I personally would never burn an American flag, that's freedom of speech and your right. You can't keep throwing hate and anger out and not expect some to come back and a big part of Trump's campaign is fostering that environment.
Oh I don't believe they are victims either. But there is a huge line between yelling, etc, and basically inciting a riot. (like in Cali).
Trump is stopping in Eugene because 9% of the civilian work force there is unemployed and if they find a job somewhere else will owe their first 10 years of income to Uncle Sam for worthless student loans.
Gotta be honest with you, I feel the same way about Bernie. My facebook feed is constantly full of old high school friends wanting to have a "chat" with people that aren't pro-bernie, because obviously if you aren't for bernie you hate america. This entire election process is pretty pathetic.
It is. His supporters are going to be wandering around looking for poles and probably get hit by a bus or something. barfo
