Violently attacking Trump supporters is a clear attack on democracy
Violently attacking Trump supporters is a clear attack on democracy
“………..now we’re seeing unjustified violence on both sides, and it needs to stop. There are reports of anti-Trump protestors chasing and attacking his supporters in San Jose. Every time I see images of the female Trump supporter covered in eggs while men in masks hurl insults at her, I feel pain over the assault on her and our democracy.
Regardless of how deplorable Trump is, using violence and physical attacks against his supporters is unacceptable and grossly counterproductive. No one can argue that they value the Constitution or the first amendment if they physically attack others for political speech that they disagree with. We’re supposed to fight back with ideas, civil disobedience, voting and political activism……..”
There is no excuse for violence in the political process…….. Both sides of the debate must condemn the violence and demand it stop……..
What are we becoming? Some 3rd world country………
