    All it takes is a google search, and you can see the reaction of a Trump presidency. Nationwide protests against his upcoming term, the burning of flags, but something that right wing conservatives, moderate Trump supporters, and most importantly, the "Silent Majority" aren't willing to acknowledge is the now open and apparently acceptable racist occurrences throughout the nation

    Twitter is already bustling with stories of citizens of foreign descent and legal immigrants being attacked by their long time neighbors and coworkers through colorful comments, bigoted jokes about deportation, letters telling people to come back where they came from, and in some cases, physical altercations, one in which a high school girl had her hijab ripped of her head forcibly by other students at her school.

    one could make the argument that white power population and the anti-immigrant bigots always act out following a republican victory in a big election, but the issue with these occurrences is that the president elect has shaped his policies to appeal to these uneducated and prejudiced americans, with his solid border, the muslim ban, and most infamously, the wall. Because of this specific appeal and his emphasis on border and immigration control being his top issue, Trump has the ability to incite unprecedented racial bias through nationalistic points of view, putting immigrants at a second class citizen status because they weren't natural born citizens.

    Be ready america. It's only going to get worse.

    I'm skeptical at best. One of these already proven false.

    I'm more worried about the violence from the left.

    You are officially out of your mind. The violence is coming where it always comes from when they don't get their way progressive liberal Democrats. To blame anyone else is a blatant lie and anyone with a clue sees right through it. Yet you will not quite, ridiculous!

    Nobody is going to protest closing the border to Muslims. We absolutely don't want them.
    We don't care who is offended. We don't want ANY of them.
    We'll take Mexicans all day long over Muslims.

    Good. If I get attacked by one of the jobless liberal rioters, it'll give me the excuse I've always wanted!

    I can hit back :)

    What about the violence coming from the far left?

    [video=youtube;gr4RwsQcxxA]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gr4RwsQcxxA[/video]

    I would have just shot them for endangering my life and trying to steal my car. Then the survivors would cry racism

    But mind showing some evidence of far right attacking anyone like the far left did in this video? Or is it just baseless claims?

    Do you have a point? One instance from about 20 years ago.

    KKK is less significant than Occupy Wall St.

    I could just as easily bring up the Weather Underground, the NAACP, black panthers, BLM, and all of the rioters out now.

    Everyone knew the next 100 days would be tough, and you can all thank the regime change freak George Soros and his messianic globalist agenda for it... as well as his underlings such as Obama, Clinton and the rest of the Trotskyites. I mean Moveon.org is not much different from his foreign NGO's and they did destroy Ukraine and Syria... I guess it's our turn now?

    Craig's list is offering $15 for anyone willing to protest with them. But there is a bright side. Everyone did expect a war with Russia to stop Trump, so comparatively speaking this is better. Trump did say he will clean out the swamp, and the prospect of going to jail isn't exactly the life our criminals in Washington, (pedophiles and all) were looking forward to.

    I don't buy it. It's shameful if true but too easy to contrive. I mean twitter as a source? Hands up don't shoot.

    The only reason it will get worse is because of Liberals. Everyone see's that except for the (extreme) libs.

    It's creating more and more right leaning people

    It's embarrassing what they are doing right now

    Badly, then you get idiots trying to compare random single acts to literal groups of people rioting

    Your partisanship is showing people

    I was part of the Peaceful Protests back in the Vietnam days.
    No arson, looting, graffiti. Just making a legal presence, more like Occupy.


    We dearly need to employ something like the "Riot Act" (Google it)

    When looting, arson, gunfire, bottle throwing, etc. start to become too common,
    the demonstration has become a Riot. Loudspeakers should advise the crowd of the change of legal status and rioting will get you arrested, booked, etc. unless you peacefully leave the area. Crowd control need a system to corral the mass into a smaller and smaller perimeter until they can be individually arrested and processed.



    The supreme example of Racism is Black people having the Right to Riot without consequences
    while people get so worked up over a few Red Neck Cowboys. Got Racism? Tell me.

    What we see is anarchists taking another opportunity to create destruction in the name of fairness. All it takes is an open and fair mind to see what is going on and who is doing it.

    You mean like the black guys in Chicago who pulled a white Trump supporter from his car and beat him in the street?

    These crybabies are simply going through the stages of grief. Election night and the morning after consisted of the denial phase, we are currently seeing anger on full display. I expect they will hit bargaining after the weekend before hitting depression later on, then finally reaching acceptance perhaps by Thanksgiving.

    Yep I used to live in the big city......Then I moved to an area where parcel sizes were 1 to 40 acres. The very first thing that totally floored me were the few cars parked at the store that were actually running with the keys in the ignition!! Because it was HOT and they wanted to keep their cars cool while they shopped. Also they leave stuff in their yards unprotected and no one ever steals anything. Unbelievable!!!! Or is it?

    It's Spring time for Hitler and Germany, Duetcheland is happy and gay.

    I am very pessimistic about the next year. Expect chaos. Friendships once made will be broken. There is no turning back unless Trump shows us he is a far better man than he has ever been. But his team shows us he is exactly as we see him. A bully, a tyrant, an arse. I dare him to prove me wrong.
