Another Trump Inspired Hate Crime

[PaulS]

Nothing strikes a nerve as I don't know many of the people here and really couldn't care less what they say (the same as I think most people shouldn't care less what I say).

Anyone would have to be an idiot to say all racist/bias attacks are as a result of Trump being elected. As people have said here, it was stupid and disgusting and those idiots deserve jail for it.

Great post Paul, sincerely.

TDF made the original post, I presume, as a way to thumb his nose at the notion (and it has been a fairly widespread notion) that Trump's election has emboldened white supremacists to start attacking anyone they don't like.

Yes, there are Trump supporters who are thugs and need to be dealt with. Trump is no more responsible for that, than Obama/Hilary are for what happened in this video.

And that's the difference between our two sides. I haven't seen a single right-wing media type blame any Democratic politician for the attack in this video. But many left-wing pundits are connecting Trump to the alleged attacks carried out by his supporters (some of which have proven to be fake).

We need to move to a time and place where people respect life and liberties again.

It seems that we have to fundamentally transform the current fundamental transformation.

We need to get back to embracing traditional family values, instead of mocking them. We need to start incentivizing productive behavior, instead of incentivizing destructive behavior.

But that goes against the narrative.
