I was considering burying the hatchet but when this type of behavior goes unpunished it helps me understand how important it is that Trump won this election. Perhaps the next time these thugs try to pull someone out of his car and beat him while stopped at the stoplight they'll find someone who exercises his 2nd amendment rights, seeing that Hillary Clinton will not be taking them away anytime soon.

Gee, wonder what started it. Do black people have the ability to spot Trump voters driving down the street?

Does it really matter? If he was driving through the neighborhood, shouting "Trump 2016," does that justify him being attacked, robbed, and car stolen?

I'm sure Ajax cares deeply about the widespread racist intimidation invoking Trump's name being reported from all over in the wake of his victory.

Wait, no he doesn't. He very likely favors it. This isn't about condemning people who cannot peacefully disagree. This is Ajax looking for a moment to portray black people negatively with an anecdote and nothing more. There's no one here who won't condemn beating Trump supporters for that fact and wish them to be appropriately dealt with by the law.

The white supremicists are all over this video, and while I realize infowars is probably the most respected news source on the planet, the police who are investigating say the altercation was started by a "traffic incident" and was "nothing political in nature".

Yep. The guys who assaulted that man should all be arrested, prosecuted and jailed. But Ajax's use of this incident is typical: find the worst behavior in folks that aren't white and use it to fuel his grievance machine. There is never any effort on his part to look at the big picture.

Ajax, if you want to use this as your excuse to not "bury the hatchet," that says more about you than anything going in society.

Nothing political in nature? These thugs were justifying the battery the entire time they were committing it with, "He voted for Trump," probably something taught to them by the liberal education system as a justifiable reason to find white motorists at stoplights, drag them out of them out of their cars and assault them.

How would this be viewed if the motorist had shot one of them? It'd be all over the mainstream media. As it is they'll probably get community service at most. This is the double standard in this country.

Ajax,

Please do yourself a favor read read the following:

Mean world syndrome is a term coined by George Gerbner to describe a phenomenon whereby violence-related content of mass media makes viewers believe that the world is more dangerous than it actually is. Mean world syndrome is one of the main conclusions of cultivation theory.

Ajax, you're making up what these guys were thinking based on your own bigoted views. And there is nothing in "liberal education" that teaches it's okay to drag someone out of a car and beat them because you don't like how they voted. But you know that.

Nope, it's only been a day and you've reverted to white victim/grievance/outrage mode. Too bad. When you drop that crap, you're an interesting guy to have a conversation with.

It is heartbreaking to hear this kind of stuff! Are we going to have 4 or more years of this kind of nonsense because of Trump's election? I shudder to think of it! I would bet that even many who voted for Trump would condemn this kind of racist behavior. If it escalates further or even continues at its present rate without Trump himself publicly denouncing and condemning it, I'm sure that many of those who voted for Trump will come to deeply regret having done so. I would be surprised if there are not already a significant number of Trump supporters experiencing buyers remorse because of their vote in the recent election.

I would not like to believe that nearly half of my fellow Americans buy into this bigotry and intolerance and were motivated to vote for Trump largely or even partly because of it.
