  • Violent Trump supporter at a rally in Texas assaults a peaceful counter-protester

    Say what you will but this is a cowardly sucker-punch. Apparently it was due to the protester wearing a mask.

    Warning the Trump Supporter is yelling out a lot of profanity.

    Yup, it was a cowardly thing to do.

      Cheap shot...

        Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
        But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
        Than a fool in the eyes of God

          Nah, the Trump Supporter threw a sucker punch. The other guy was just standing there.

            Reminds me of the time antifa sucker punched a guy giving an interview. The left suddenly decided whether it was ok to "punch a nazi".

              It's never okay to punch someone. But that was definitely funny, unlike the victim in this video Spencer had worked hard for that punch, and it really made his career too. Unfortunately for him it never happened again much as he tried, and now he's slowly fading into obscurity. It does show that violent actions like that, punching someone you disagree with, rarely has the outcome you want.

              I'm honestly not even sure why this guy threw a sucker punch in the video I linked. Apparently they were recording him being in their faces about them wearing masks and that made him upset.

                I guess I could counter with this:

                A Trump supporter was sucker-punched by a counterprotester. Why isn’t it a hate crime?

                  Yep, that's bad. And it is proof that if you search long and hard enough you can find that rotten 1% to balance against the rotten 99%
