They are sooooooo harassed that they feel the need to go on youtube and scream about their frustrations. Nobody gave me a room to cry in when Harper lost. On the U.S news stations people are saying if you voted for Trump you are a racist or an idiot. The attacking is just as vicious coming from the left as it is the right.

Nobody gave me a room to cry in when Harper lost. Quote The Southern Poverty Law Center has counted more than 200 complaints of hate crimes since Election Day, according to USA Today. Link If 200 incidents were documented, it's safe to assume there are a ton more that weren't reported. Maybe you can describe how many hate crimes you suffered as a result of voting for Harper. Quote On the U.S news stations people are saying if you voted for Trump you are a racist or an idiot. Do you have a citation? No? Of course not. What most of the MSM is actually doing is normalizing a president who ran the most racist campaign of any leader in my memory. And those voters who voted for Trump in spite of his naked appeals to bigots? The ones who claim they're not really bigots themselves but they voted for him for other reasons? The ones who ignored the fact that the KKK came out in support of Trump? What does that make them exactly?

Well, anybody can do better than Obama's dismal record, but at least for Trump it's a priority. Hopefully he gets NASA straightened out as well. Having one of their objectives being making Muslims feel better about themselves was a real jaw dropper. I don't know how that one even got into Obama's head. Quote

Boges Posted November 14, 2016 Author Report Posted November 14, 2016 (edited) Trump has called for hate crimes to stop. Will the Democratic establishment call for the rioting to stop? It serves no purpose at this point. Edited November 14, 2016 by Boges Quote
cybercoma Posted November 14, 2016 Report Posted November 14, 2016 Trump called for the hate crimes to stop only to turn around and blame the media for blowing it out of proportion and saying it wasn't "as much of a problem as they're making it out to be," in his words. On the topic of the OP, if you want to talk about stupid protests, then look at the idiots in Toronto protesting the Trump presidency. Now that's truly dumb. Quote

If you're in Canada and you spend your time to protest Trump, you're a huge loser. BUT I will say that it's convenient that Trump can't claim that these hate crimes are only being undertaken by a handful of people but people can claim that vast majority of these protests are peaceful yet we've seen some serious rioting an awful behaviour. I saw a "We should rape Melania" sign on Facebook. (can never know if anything I saw on Facebook on either side is legit or not) Quote

Boges Posted November 14, 2016 Author Report Posted November 14, 2016 I saw a photo of the Toronto Trump Protest. Couldn't be more than 50 people at Nathan's Phillips Square. Quote
cybercoma Posted November 14, 2016 Report Posted November 14, 2016 Canadians fear Trump so much that a metropolitan area with 7 million people drew a massive crowd of a few dozen. Quote

sharkman Posted November 14, 2016 Report Posted November 14, 2016 Being that it's documented that dem operatives were sent to Trump rallies to stir things up, I would not be surprised to find out that some of these hate crimers are leftwingnuts trying to stir up some shit. It's certainly within the realm of possibility with some of the desperation they feel. Quote
