Discussion for article #246783
“Trump’s campaign told the Des Moines Register that Trump did not direct security to remove the students from the rally.”
He also didn’t kick Jorge Ramos out of his press conference. He just screamed, “Get them the hell outta here!”

“The Secret Service does not engage in any action to address or remove any individual or group exercising First Amendment rights who may create a disruption at a secured venue…”
Unless you are a journalist and then we reserve the right to slam you to the ground and choke you.

That smarmy town cop should have his feet held to the fire as well. Maybe there are a few white sheets in his closet that need explaining. Valdosta is not exactly a bastion of racial comity.

So, apparently a thing we have video of happening to members of a racial minority seems not to have happened, or if it happened nobody who caused it to happen was actually there at the time causing it to happen. And, regardless, it is clear that the leader of the movement didn’t order the thing that didn’t actually happen to happen notwithstanding that it is perfectly consistent with his rhetoric.
For some reason, this all rings a bell. It’s as if there was some in history when this exact thing happened, people disappearing without anyone actually acknowledging they were gone, wondering where they’d gone or who was involved. But I just can’t put my finger on it. It’s maddening, I tell you.

Any bets that Drumpf’s private security is now telling people that they’re Secret Service?
Because intentional lying has a ring of truth when it comes to anything in Trumphistan…

This will escalate.
And I, a melanin-challenged individual-- can’t expect that people of color should put themselves in harm’s way.
But.
Each incident of this type is another stone in the pocket to sink Trump’s candidacy–
with regard to independent voters in the General Election.

Wow, the implausible deniability chain is seemingly endless. No one did nothing to no one, but some college kids somehow found themselves suddenly outside of a rally on their own campus. They must have self-evacuated! Secret Service is keeping it a secret. This sh*t is just as ugly as can be.
Quick question–is it customary for colleges to make space available for partisan political rallies and to allow their students to be denied access to said rally?

That is not their job.

Yeah, right. And you don’t choke slam reporters either. The Secret Service, in its spare time, when not druggin, drinkin’ and whorin’, acts as thugs for T.rump. Nice. I resent paying their salaries.

The point of having even controversial speakers on campus is to allow students exposure to a wide range of viewpoints - so, no, it is not customary to deny students access to political speakers.

ummmmmmmmmmmmmm…as opposed to knocking a photographer to the floor that was 18" out of the pen and about 1000 yards from the candidate? THAT is a ‘threat’?

dude, it’s an x-file. the truth is out there but nobody is coming forward.
Who provides security at Drumpf’s events, and are plans being made to train them on acceptable reasons to remove someone from a rally?
You know who else held rallies and kicked blacks out? Yeah the KKK that Trump also denies.
Maybe it’s just me but If I were black and planning on protesting at a Trump rally, I would expect to be booted and would be prepared with shit like football pads and hockey masks.
Someone or some group is tossed at every rally and IIRC it is always minorities and there is no discrimination based on popularity or place.
The pattern is purely racist.
Private colleges can do it because they are private. Had one of these events at my undergrad college. Secret Service was all over the place and was repeatedly telling us to keep our blinds closed. My mom gave me a golden ticket even though she knew i didn’t support the elder Bush, who the event was for. Lots of other Dems in the golden ticket area too. We were all there to try and shake a President’s hand, because, well, it was the President.
