    Ultimately misleading statement.

    Farrakhan does not "support" Trump in the sense that he is endorsing him. He like him for not taking money from Jews.

    Think about what you are doing. Using a racist, anti-semite's racist statement about something Trump is sort of doing as some sort of proof that Trump isn't racist. LOL

    I have posted these videos many times, they'll just ignore it and the next day will post something in lines of " Trump is so racist, how can people vote for him".

    What's funny is that you have some posters in here calling all Trump supporters "sub human" "idiots"" r****ds" etc and they cite Trump for the horrible things he has said...... Trump supporters make about 15% of our population.

    Some extremely hypocritical posters in here. You are worse than the Donald.

    Everyone has there reason to vote for someone. Get over it. We're in America.

    He also understood and supported Trump's position on halting Muslim immigration temporarily to the radicalization caused by America's presence in the Middle East.

    Uh...that's a bad thing that he won't accept their money, accept being controlled by them? Cruz and Rubio are right down the corner if you want a puppet.

    No, it's not a bad thing to not take someone's money, but you don't see the hilarity in pointing to an anti-semite's claim that he likes Trump for not taking money from filthy jews as proof that Trump isn't racist? WTF?

    God only knows how one can spin an endorsement from Louis Farrakhan into a positive.

    For the record I do not think Trump is a racist. I think Trump is a sensationalist and a master media manipulator that is using the media to help him blow a dog whistler louder than anyone in history to drive out a radical base to get him elected. Trump has a history of using racial sensationalism for personal gain.

    Of course they have "there" reason to vote for Trump, that reason just happens to be that they are racists and other sub-human idiots. Of course those window lickers should like that I am "telling it like it is" shouldn't they?

    Hmmm, good thing Farrakhan is in no way racist. Oh wait...

    [rquoter]Speaking at the black nationalist organization's annual Savior's Day in Chicago, Farrakhan told parishioners that he admires Trump because he believes the celebrity billionaire's purportedly self-funded presidential campaign isn't taking money from the "Jewish community."

    "[Trump] is the only member who has stood in front of [the] Jewish community and said, 'I don't want your money,'" Farrakhan told his followers Sunday at the Mosque Maryam in Chicago, according to the Anti-Defamation League, a Jewish civil rights organization.[/rquoter]

    I'm just noting that the media is pushing this WHITE RACIST angle from a guy who was in the KKK for, what, a few years back in the 70s? And have nothing to say when a BLACK MAN, anti-semite or racist or both, supports a Trump policy.

    So you are complaining because the media isn't asking him to also reject/disavow an anti-Semite while they ask him to disavow a white supremacist?

    OK...

    Anyway, there is a difference in relevance between Farrakhan making a few statements of support and the growing amount of white supremacist groups that are not just endorsing trump but actively working to get him elected.

    There's also the fact that his policies are very similar to those espoused by white nationalists and fascists.

    But sure, if you think it isn't fair that the media isn't grilling him about whether he is also an anti-Semite, fine, be my guest.

    Oh, and minimizing the racist attitudes of David Duke with the "what, KKK for a few years" throw away line is pathetic. Do some research. Guy has a long history of being a racist and a criminal.

    Speaking of, I've been trying to get on your level lately bud. You've been here so long and amassed so much rep... it's almost unfathomable. :eek:

    Perhaps you can teach me how to construct a sentence properly, and maybe if I'm lucky even an argument.

    I actually got a rep comment the other day as praise for leading you on your r****d crusade, so I can't be the only one that enjoys this. Keep it coming! :grin:

    Instead of getting angry at them, you have to think of them as amusement. Natural selection would have offed these people long ago...we're living in an age where stupid people can be proud of their ways.

    Its also interesting to see previous posting history.

    So a guy who commented on trump "bringing a tear to his eye during a hate filled speach"--LMAO

    also has psychopathic tendencies and mental problems. It really fits quite well together. God forbid he ever stops posting.

    Read this and tell me you're still for Donald Trump.

    http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/king-not-long-killed-trump-rally-article-1.2549868

    On Monday, 30 black students attending a Donald Trump rally at Valdosta State University in rural Georgia were forcefully ejected — simply for being black.

    On Tuesday, in Louisville, Ky., what happened to young black protesters at another Trump rally wasn’t just racist — it appears to be outright criminal.

    KING: STUDENTS TOSSED FROM TRUMP RALLY FOR BEING BLACK

    While we have already widely reported that white supremacists are openly proclaiming that they are fully emboldened and energized by Trump, the natural progression of their romance with Trump is now on full display.



    A man wearing a make America great again hat — thought to be Matthew Heimbach, a leader of the Traditionalist Worker Party — can be seen next to a protestor at the Trump rally in Louisville.

    While Trump was giving his typical campaign speech about making America great again, several different predominantly black groups of protesters, who were simply there to hold up signs, began having those signs snatched and getting cursed by the white Trump supporters surrounding them.

    GREENMAN: TRUMP IS AN EMBARRASMENT TO THE REPUBLICAN PARTY

    We now know that those Trump supporters are open bigots, Neo-Nazis, and white supremacists belonging to many different groups including the Traditionalist Worker Party — a well-documented hate group. Their social media profiles are full of Nazi photos, KKK and white supremacist references, and some of the most insulting, despicable hate speech you'll ever see.

    It is believed that Heimbach — seen here in the red hat — is the man who repeatedly shoved, pushed and screamed profanities at a teenage girl at the rally.
    One of their leaders, Matthew Heimbach, tweeted that youth workers from the Traditionalist Worker Party were responsible for snatching the signs.

    THE COMPLETE GUIDE TO FLEEING PRESIDENT TRUMP'S AMERICA

    It is believed that Heimbach, one of the best known youth leaders of modern white supremacy and Neo-Nazism in the country, may be the man who can be seen in the red "Make America Great Again hat" who repeatedly shoved, pushed and screamed profanities at the teenage girl in the video. He has actually been banned from entering the United Kingdom because of his bigotry.


    Before the rally began, he was seen by another protester wearing the same Traditionalist Worker Party T-shirt and eyeglasses he was seen with while assaulting the young girl. Heimbach can also be seen wearing the same shirt and glasses in photos throughout his social media profiles.


    In fact, men and women can been seen wearing those T-shirts throughout the rally. For them, it appears, a Trump rally is a white power rally.

    When I first saw the short 37-second news clip of this young girl being forcefully pushed and shoved by large grown men, my blood began to boil.

    In my lifetime, I have never seen grown men, many who at first appeared to be complete strangers, violently shove a young girl around like that. Some seem to just be pushing her for fun to the left and to the right, just because it's what other people were doing.

    While it all goes down, the hate for her is visible in the eyes not just of the adult men who repeatedly shove her, but in the surrounding women who look on. Nobody, not a single soul, offers to help protect her or escort her out in a way that is remotely safe.

    Nobody, though, was as violent and flagrant as the man in the Trump campaign hat with the white supremacist T-shirt. As he yells in the young girls face, and appears to attempt to stab her with a pen of some sort, he pushes and shoves her repeatedly.

    Police and Secret Service do nothing.

    "I was called a n----- and a c--t and got kicked out," said Shiya Nwanguma, a respected student at the University of Louisville to a local interviewerin a video posted on Facebook.

    "They were pushing and shoving at me, cursing at me, yelling at me, called me every name in the book. They were disgusting and dangerous."

    Another demonstrator, Molly Shah, watched as Heimbach tried to recruit other attendees.


    Matthew Heimbach previously made headlines for his involvement with the Touson University White Student Union, which he founded in 2012.

    "I watched him for hours recruit Trump supporters with five of his buddies," said Shah. "They later attacked the group I was with. The Neo-Nazis threw punches and kicked us. I am still awake now because my body is sore."

    What we now know from the full video, particularly starting at around 28:00 in this video, is that the crowd was taking their cues from Trump — who repeatedly barked, "get them out of here" without giving anyone in particular a clue as to who he expected to do such a thing. So flippant in his directive, it appears that attendees simply began taking it upon themselves to manhandle protesters and force them out of the rally. Apparently wanting to have the feeling that they were doing what their Supreme Leader told them to do, everybody began to chip in. A random teenage boy shoved the young girl to one side until she is pushed again by someone else. A man wearing a military hat repeatedly shoved and yelled at her as well.

    In an interview with the New York Daily News, Chanelle Helm, a protester and respected activist who attended the rally, said that she and others were not just spat on, but were cursed at and demeaned repeatedly by Trump supporters.

    She distinctly remembered one disturbing chant, which was lead by the white supremacists, "You're scum, your time will come. You're scum, your time will come."

    The same day Trump won the nomination, a black woman was pushed and shoved at one of his rallies in Louisville by what appears to be at least one white supremacist.

    "In my entire life I had never had anyone look at me with such hate. It was like the videos and photos we've seen from the Little Rock 9 and other school integration moments from the 1950s and '60s where the fury was palpable in the eyes of the white women," said Helm.

    She went on, "We were there alongside them for hours and hours waiting for the rally to begin. They would regularly bump into us on purpose, step on our shoes, accidentally wave signs that smacked us in the face. We actually heard them talking about us for hours. It was eerie."

    Henry Brousseau, another protester, said "I was actually punched by fascists wearing T-shirts from the Traditional Workers Party."

    After being removed from the event, Helm actually saw Brousseau vomiting afterward.

    "All we want is justice, peace, and equality," said Helm. "All of us are peaceful protesters, but we clearly walked into a deeply racist and violent atmosphere at the Trump rally. Some of us who were taken out of there by police, by black officers I might add, were actually told that they wanted to get us out there for our own safety."


    A tweet from the Traditionalist Worker Party gloating over stolen protest signs.

    All of this happened on the same day that Trump won Republican primaries from Massachusetts to Georgia and racked up millions of votes and delegates in the process. Bigotry, it appears, is more popular than ever. It's only a matter of time until someone is killed or critically injured in one of these Trump rallies.

    This is America. 2016.

    I probably wouldn't be as angry if it wasn't so dangerous. It's to the point where it's not funny anymore.

    I'm still waiting for LosPollosHermanos to make one valid argument. He thinks personal attacks is going to stop people from voting for Trump. The kid is a comedy gold. Keep embarrassing yourself. Pure gold!

    Also a real pathetic loser keeps talking about virtual reps on a basketball forum like that holds any significance in the real world.
