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.
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.
Republicans of a now by-gone era would have instantly condemned this and pushed it to the margins. Trump's people have not and will not. It's emboldened for a reason.
Ceeboo, I hope you understand that I was mainly talking about the behavior described in EA's link above, https://Twitter.com/i/moments/796417517157830656, committed by racists who feel validated in their racism by Trump's election. If Trump does not come out and condemn that kind of behavior in no uncertain terms, he is a disgrace to our country and what it is supposed to stand for!
No precept or claim is more likely to be false than one that can only be supported by invoking the claim of Divine authority for it--no matter who or what claims such authority.

Failure to do so further demonstrates Trump's unfitness to be President of the United States of America. I hope enough of the American electorate realizes this to prevent his reelection 4 years from now.

Really?
Higbie asked, “Then what do you say to the people who are — who dragged a poor white guy out of a car and beat him?”
Sanders then stated, “Oh my goodness, poor white people. Please, oh my — stop it, Carl.” She added, “I am calling for people to be peaceful.” Sanders continued, “it’s never okay to use violence, but we can’t keep calling for people to be peaceful…when the rhetoric that has been used is not peaceful, when people don’t feel peaceful in their homes.”
“There were mothers who took this [Rodney King LA riots] as an opportunity to take some milk, to take some bread, to take some shoes ... They are not crooks.”
This liberal would be about socializing … uh, umm. … Would be about, basically, taking over, and the government running all of your companies.

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.

In my own defense, I think the OP belongs in Prison because it was written by a poster who is one sheet away from a Klan meeting. Asking him to shut up was my way of expressing disapproval of his racist OP title and all.

But if a traffic incident falls down in a forest and no one screams "Trump" or "Get Whitey" is it worthy of being picked up by right-wing media, let alone come to the attention of our trans-racial/sexual Ajax?
