BLM's extreme side, their type of racism is a dangerous ignorance
Wow, this was hard to watch.
I hope the perpetrators are found and charged.
[QUOTE=HybridTheroy;51346686]Refer to my previous post[/QUOTE]
So the answer is yes.
To be honest, you're probably right after all. This kind of people don't need much to start a fight. Just looking at one of them the wrong way could lead to having your ass beat.

[quote=me][b]While I'll agree chances are this is something they'd be doing regardless of current events[/b], election backlash definitely has a role on why this particular attack is happening at this particular place and time.[/quote]
Answer was no.
I have not seen a single video of trump supporters beating clinton supporters. Not a single one. I'm not saying one doesn't exist, but just making an observation. Seriously, go to youtube and search "trump supporters attacked" and "clinton supporters attacked". Both show results only of clinton supporters attacking trump supporters, yet, clinton supporters are the ones posting about how they're "scared" now that trump won.
Hillary Clinton with the help of the mass media told everybody for almost the entire election that if you don't vote for her you are a bigot, racist, islamphobe gay right hating "deplorable". Generalizing over half a nation. That the world would end if Trump gets elected. Not only did this cost her the election(surprise! Trying to sway voters by insulting them is a dumb tactic) but encouraged things like this. These people are beating up an old man fleeing in fear because we have been divided to think the other side has only wants to harm the other instead of simply expressing their political beliefs. I didn't believe in there was a regressive left until this election.
Me and my family left the middle east where people where intiminated by violence over democratic voting. Seeing this happen here is upsetting me so much I have tears running down my face as I type this. Watching the country I looked up to as a kid that me and my family worked so hard to immigate to, coming here with NOTHING in our pockets, turning this way.
There already posts in this thread attempting to sugarcoat and distract from this video. I plead with you people to open your minds and see pasts your biases. These are people. Not republicans, democrats, deplorables, feminazis or whatever labels both sides came up with. But american people. This nation, the UNITED states, was created so we can be united no matter our political affilations or who we voted for. You are meant to work together, compromises are a part of that. It doesnt matter if your canditate gets elected or not. Rioting over a democratic election is not the answer. Attacking and lynching people for voting is not the answer.
We are much better than this. There is something seriously wrong if people think this is okay. They are chanting that that he is a Trump supporter as if that was a justified reason to attack him and steal his car. We have spent so much time this election hating each other and dividing ourselves, calling the otherside whatever labels your side is using. Forgetting that these are independent people and thinkers that have done NOTHING won. I don't care what facepunch users here say, there is NOTHING wrong with voting for who you want to vote for.
I've seen first hand what this kind of political division and hate caused by politicans and media has turn countries into. Please don't make the same mistakes, at the end, everybody loses.

Because your average Trump supporter has been the classic redneck with an F150 who casually talks about how he hates niggers at the dinner table. They've been doing stuff like this under the conservative ideaology for decades, not under Trump's flag.
And these people aren't Clinton supporters. They're some angry black kids beating someone up because to them, voting for Trump = racist redneck. And they aren't even too wrong with that generalization. It's obviously wrong to attack people but the racial tensions in the US have been simmering for a decade and we're about to see it hit a boil.
Oh btw the "Clinton supporters" (most people don't support either but recognize ones worse) I've seen saying they're scared are LGBT and are realizing that Trump, his VP and his cabinet are about as anti-lgbt rights as you can get.

This is EXACTLY why hillary lost instead of winning in a landslide like she should have. This mentality right here is what harming our country and unity. You have became just as bad as the neo-nazis at /pol/ calling everything and everybody they disagree with as degenerative or cucks.
Ad hominems were the dismise of the clinton campaign.
If I was a Trump supporter living in the USA, I would definitely be thinking about getting my concealed carry.
In this case, the man could most definitely use the stand your ground defense, because they were going after him, while he was ON THE GROUND.
They're going to do this to the wrong person one day, and get a body full of lead.
[QUOTE=Coyoteze;51346599]Unlikely they actually attacked him based on politics. Probably just used it as a scapegoat to commit grand theft auto and beat someone up.[/QUOTE]
"Beat his ass ahuuuuhh ya nigga he voted trump beat his ass" doesn't sound politically motivated to me either :downs:

Yeah, this was politically motivated. It was also racially motivated.
It's either going to get worse, or people will start carrying, and lead will start being shot into the bodies of attackers.
They really, really love showing how tolerant they are. These racist attacks are going to be put to an end, and not in a friendly way.
Love trumps hate amirite :downs:

Whats worse is that there will be people who are [B]NOT[/B] Trump supporters getting targeted like this.
I remember how a white man gotten beaten badly into a bloody mess by BLM protesters in one of those police shooting protests a whole back.

No-one should be beaten for their political beliefs.

If you guys watch the video carefully, you will notice the only people saying he voted Trump were the ones behind the camera, not the ones actually beating him. And you'll notice that the girl is only screaming "You voted Trump!" because the guy next to her said it. You can hear her saying "You voted Trump? You voted Trump! Daaaaamn!" as if she heard that information for the first time. And [B]it's obvious she repeats it just to fuel the anger.[/B]
My point is, the fight started before they actually mentioned Trump. So we don't know if it's politically motivated.

that's because they're being assaulted or mistreated for other reasons instead. such as not being white, for example

C'mon dude really? You think the assaulter was going to stop beating the guy up to explain his rationale like some sort of blond villian.
Do you really need a signed confession to know this is politically motivated, his friends said just enough to me.

Assumptions like this are just more fuel for the hatred.
You just assume they're all racist because they have different political views, and if they argue that they are not racist people only get angrier and keep calling them racist. Essentially making both sides angry. Hatred breeds hatred.
There is so much hatred in this country you can practically smell it.

Make sure to read this part especially: [QUOTE]"Get out of my car," the man yells as he approaches the women, who shouts back, "You're gonna pay for my shit!" [/QUOTE]
So yeah, nothing leads to believe it is because of political beliefs except for the sayings of the people filming this. Who are most likely surfing on the Trump hatred to get views.
Perhaps it was a car collision? He was stopped in the middle of the road after all, his car's rear is dented, and that woman is shouting "You're gonna pay for my shit!", so it would make sense.

Link 1 video of a group of white people beating a person for the sole reason that they're a minority. If this is such a problem, as you say, surely there should be no shortage of material for you to present.
You're able to very easily find videos of blacks beating whites, but not the other way around. Why is this? I don't know, I'm not a sociologist. I don't have the answer, but that's just how it is.

I'm just going to cross post this
[QUOTE=Anderan;51347203]Honestly I feel like people blaming this entirely on the left have decided to utterly ignore the conservative media the past 8 years. We've had 8 years of conservative media reporting shit like the birther conspiracy, 8 years of them telling conservatives how Obama is literally destroying the country, 8 years of how evil socialists want to take way all of their rights and force them to be PC. We've had a congress that threw hissy fits over stupid shit almost daily to the point where we could barely even set a budget without the threat of shutting down congress.
But sure, the left is to blame for all of this.[/QUOTE]
The American left does have a holier than thou mentality but the right isn't even remotely humble. There's as many people using socialist as an insult as there are people calling others racist.
