http://www.addictinginfo.org/2016/03/12/trump-supporter-disgustingly-tells-black-people-to-go-back-to-africa-video/In yet another example of the utter racism coming out of the Trump campaign and those who follow him, a Trump supporter started shouting at those protesting that if they consider themselves African-America then they should go back to Africa.
If Trump doesnt start condemning this sort of speech, he himself should be condemned by every American who stands up for justice and equality. However, its doubtful that Trump will condemn this sort of speech considering he is asking for protesters to be thrown the hell out or says that if he had the chance hed punch them himself and that he misses the good old days where people were taken out on stretchers.
If Trump is allowed to openly continue his hate-filled rhetoric, we will undoubtedly see more and more of this behavior from the grotesque people who support him. He needs to be held accountable for his encouragement of hate and violence.

(9 posts)I swore, among other things, to defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic. Every man and women in our military took the same oath. Our police officers, FBI agents, the Secret Service, our Firefighters all swore to the same. Trump has repeatedly said he will take actions that are blatantly unconstitutional. That makes him a domestic enemy of the Constitution. Yet, no cop, Secret Service member, military member or anyone who took this oath has done anything to mitigate his threat to our Constitution. They defend him and arrest protesters, depriving them of their 1st Amendment rights. I dont understand. Does this oath mean nothing?
