Trump Supporter Threatened to Beat Up Black Woman — October 2016
A 55-year-old man in Albany, New York, was arrested after approaching a 27-year-old black woman outside a grocery store and yelling, “You [racial slur] had your time. Your eight years are up.” He also added, “Trump is going to win and if you don’t like it I’m going to beat your ass.”

Man Says, “I Can’t Wait Until Trump Gets Elected So I Can Force Bitches Like You Down on Your Knees” — October 2016
Writer Sara Nović shared a screenshot of a text message from her younger sister, in which she described being pestered by a man in Penn Station until she told him, “I don’t mean to be rude at all, but I’m just not interested.” He reportedly replied, “Wooowww, ****ing bitch! I can’t wait until Trump gets elected so I can force bitches like you down on your knees when you talk like that.”

College Student Followed and Assaulted by Trump Supporter — October 2016
Katie Zurbrick, a senior at Portland State University, told KATU that a stranger approached her with a video camera and asked her if she wanted to be on “Trump TV.” After she declined, he reportedly began to shout expletives and sexual slurs at her, only to grab her phone, attempt to destroy it, and shove her out of the way until she screamed and he ran off.

Muslim Women Attacked by Someone Trying to Rip Their Head Scarves Off — September 2016
Two Muslim women pushing their strollers in Bath Beach, Brooklyn, were attacked by Emirjeta Xhelili, a 32-year-old woman who allegedly yelled, “Get the **** out of here, get the **** out of America, bitches,” while punching and kicking them. She also tried to rip their head scarves off. Upon investigating her Facebook and Twitter accounts, it was found that she posted messages like, “America is the ark of Noah. Trump’s gonna win.”
Quote:
Nevada: At a campaign rally in Las Vegas, Trump supporters gleefully watched as gun control supporters and Black Lives Matter demonstrators were physically dragged out of his event by security. As one man was dragged away, Trump supporters yelled, “Shoot him! Kick his ass,” and “Light the mother*******er on fire!” A large, middle-aged man shouted, “Sieg heil!” (a Nazi salute). “He’s a Muslim!” another man said. “He’s a Muslim!”
And I didn't even search thoroughly, I am absolutely sure there are way more and way severe examples, but gladly, it is always the others who are delusional and living in fantasy worlds, right, August?
Now, please don't say "but dem didn burn anything so Dump supporters are no problem!", please just don't.

Maybe in the PC future any rant or ction against either candidate can be classified as terrorism, and all perpetrators shot

@August: S. Steve's statement kicks out against both sides, so i see your point. It is just that all do it.

You put in a few unsubstantiated anecdotes and then tell me that a firebombing doesn't count. They bus in hundreds of paid protestors to deliberately try to disrupt and silence Trump events and you think these fake accounts you post are the same thing. Sorry but that just wont cut it.

I'm not defending Trump supporters or saying that you can't find an example of someone purporting to be on his side making harsh statements but organized disruption including paying and busing in hundreds of protestors takes things to a whole new level.

No, not what I said and not the point. Read it again, comprehend it, try again.

Ah, yes, of course these are all fake reports, probably uploaded by Hillary herself via private servers...

You... are fascinating.

Maybe it's just me but firebombing an office is a bit more extreme than politics as usual. As you can see there is no shortage of people here who would try to excuse it. Unless of course it was a DNC office then they would be going out of their minds.

Oh I understand you and your motivations very well. You are attempting to dismiss an act of terrorism just because it's against people you don't like.

Yes, that's exactly it. Congratulations, Sherlock.
Just a hint. Not everybody is that shallow and simple minded, you know?

Rockstar is the chap who determines whether it's terrorism or not, we should ask him.

When the other side is blatantly stuffing the ballot box.

When the media is in the other side's pocket.

When supposed republicans that have been around for a long time being totally ineffective won't support the candidate.

I can see why some might start to think this way, especially since our side is much better armed than the opposition, and hence the reason the liberal side really wants the USA disarmed.

If the last defense of freedom is a bunch of old fat guys waving around their AR-15s then freedom is finished.
