Video Shows Latino Protester Dragged Across The Ground And Kicked At Trump Rally

Video captured by a local TV reporter in Miami shows a Latino man who disagrees with GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump’s immigration policies being violently ejected from a Trump campaign event. In the video, an unidentified white man wearing a red polo shirt is seen pulling another man identified as a protester by the back of his shirt. When the protester falls to the ground, the man in the polo shirt then drags him along the floor towards the room’s exit. Towards the end of the video, the polo-shirted man appears to kick the protester while the protester is still lying on the ground.

As this protester is being dragged out of the room, the crowd around him loudly chants “U-S-A! U-S-A!”

The Trump campaign barred the Spanish-language station Univision from covering its event in Florida.

I don't mean to get all Ben Carson on everyone, but this shit is actually reminding me of this:




Or does Trump remind us of this guy? He does have that "I'll make the trains run on time" thing in his stump speech!!!

Insane Hater Clowns; false claims of Christianity; rampant rabid racism and bigotry; science denial and so much more madness. It's like we're living in a dystopic nightmare that requires a suspension of disbelief in order to accept.

Those shouts while I guy is being dragged and kicked is just one or two steps away from blood sport at the Coliseum.

There was a lot of dirty Spanish aimed at Trump, so our neighbors to the south are fully aware of what that idiot has been saying.
