These are the cream of the crop in Trump / Conservatard land. Enjoy.

Police say two brothers from South Boston beat a homeless man because he was Hispanic—and The Boston Globe reports one of the men said he was partially inspired by Donald Trump.

As for your headline, I am doubtful that these are typical Trump supporters. If you have evidence of your assertion please post it.

NoahFence · 20th August 2015, 08:05 AM

The elephant in the room, as you very astute readers are fully aware, is that Trump is pandering to xenophobic idiots.

Whip them up enough and you get this. Ignore it all you want - after all, ignorance is your calling card if you're conservative - but it's still the truth.

Blaster · 20th August 2015, 08:25 AM

A fine sample. I'm sure similar examples of racial violence against Hispanics will increase, what, ten fold?

NoahFence · 20th August 2015, 08:48 AM

One fold is too many.

I have to agree with 'NoahFence' on this point.

After all, in the last several years a rather sizeable segment of the GOP has developed which is really crazy.

Sarah Palin had her 'death panels',
Obama was born in Kenya,
Michelle Bachman ('nuff said there),
and then there was the McCain rally where many in the audience were chanting "Kill Him!" when McCain mentioned Obama (and McCain did nothing in response).

And it sure looks like Trump is playing to this same segment.

I hate to say it because I live in the Boston area but this may be more representative of South Boston and a select group of Red Sox fans.

I am not a conservative, even a casual reading of my ISF post will provide evidence of that.

I am not ignoring that Trump is pandering to different groups including the clueless and the xenophobic.

I am taking issue with the idea that violence is a trait of the typical Trump supporter. If you can provide evidence that these two violent criminals are representative of the millions of people who now claim support of Trump, then present it. Simply provide links to other stories in which Trump supporters attacked people that they believed to be foreign born.

Hate is the trait of the typical Trump supporter. Xenophobic hate. Violence is merely one way that trait manifests itself.

carlvs · 20th August 2015, 12:23 PM

What I am surprised is that no one has yet commented on Trump's initial comments on this matter:

Quote:

"Told of the attack, which also left the man soaked in urine, Mr. Trump said at a news conference late Wednesday that it was the first he had heard of it.

"'It would be a shame,' Mr. Trump said, before adding: 'I will say that people who are following me are very passionate. They love this country and they want this country to be great again. They are passionate.'"

NoahFence · 20th August 2015, 12:40 PM

They love this country to the tune of urinating on homeless Hispanics.

As I said - Typical Trump supporters. Not my words - HIS words.

Hercules Rockefeller · 20th August 2015, 12:46 PM

I was just wondering. I've been to the USA three times and all the people I met there we're completely normal (except for in Hollywood, maybe). Do you need special glasses to identify Trump supporters?

jhunter1163 · 20th August 2015, 12:48 PM

These cannot be "typical" Trump supporters, otherwise (given Trump's level of support) this kind of tragic event would be commonplace. The fact that it is so rare as to be newsworthy indicates that these people, whatever their sick motivations are, are not "typical" Trump supporters.

shemp · 20th August 2015, 04:13 PM

If these two guys are in prison on March 1, 2016, that's two fewer votes in the Massachusetts Republican primary for Trump. He better rein in his supporters before he loses all of them!

dudalb · 21st August 2015, 12:47 PM

This is what the kind of bigotry that Trump is using as a mainstay of his campaign leads to.
Amazed that a few people on the left in this thread don't get that are making excuses for Trump.

Against my better judgement, I am going to respond to this post aimed at me.

In the past month, I have referred to Trump as a bully, a bigot, a clown, a liar, and a BS artist. I described as as completely lacking any presidential qualities. I questioned his sanity and his mental health. I suggested that he might be suffering from an incurable mental illness (Narcissistic Personality Disorder).

I am not making excuses for Trump.

If these violent criminals were representative of Trump supporters then WHERE ARE THE HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF OTHER VIOLENT INCIDENTS? Millions of people are supporting Trump. If they are typically violent then where are all the other racially-motivated crimes?

Furthermore, Trump's bone-headed statement about these two felons is not evidence that they are typical Trump supporters.

I am not making excuses for Trump. I am asking everyone in this skeptical message board to use actual evidence to support their accusations. Show me the evidence that they are typical Trump supporters. Show me the evidence that violence is a typical trait among Trump supporters.

ETA
Just to be clear, I am not asking for evidence that Trump supporters are bigoted or zenophobic. I am asking for evidence that they are violently zenophobic.

Ok, "typical" was hyperbole. (Thanks, Captain Obvious)

Not all Trump supporters are drunken racist morons. But some drunken racist morons are Trump supporters.

I saw typical Trump supporters last night during the coverage of the rally in Alabama. This is to say that I saw what you get when pull a $20 bill on a string through a trailer park.

The fact that it is so rare as to be newsworthy indicates that these people, whatever their sick motivations are, are not "typical" Trump supporters. Ok, "typical" was hyperbole. (Thanks, Captain Obvious) Not all Trump supporters are drunken racist morons. But some drunken racist morons are Trump supporters.
