A police officer’s video slamming protesters at a Donald Trump rally in Tucson, Arizona, has gone viral.
Tucson Police Officer Brandon Tatum, who is black, said he attended Saturday’s rally in order to judge for himself what Mr. Trump’s supporters are like. He posted a video on Facebook saying his experience wasn’t at all what he expected, and that he felt the most unsafe around the anti-Trump protesters.
The officer said he encountered protesters who were “verbally violent” — shouting “black lives matter,” holding up their middle fingers and screaming “f— Donald Trump” in the presence of little children.
“I could not believe what I saw,” Officer Tatum said in the video. “I’m talking about cussing and screaming. … There was somebody wearing a Klu Klux Klan hat saying ‘F’ Donald Trump, flipping people off. … You had families down there. I seen this one lady covering her daughter’s ears, because these people are just outlandish and out of control.”
The officer went on to lament the media’s representation of Mr. Trump’s rowdy rally-goers. He said that prior to the event the Trump campaign made an announcement over the loudspeakers instructing attendees not to provoke the protesters.
“That was another thing I didn’t see portrayed in the media, that they are given a disclaimer,” Officer Tatum said. “I’m an African-American man. I had no problems with people going against me and trying to hurt me and trying to kick me out.”
Instead, he said the main problem at the Trump rally was the disruptive protesters “acting a fool.” “They’re calling [Mr. Trump] a racist … and the funny thing is, these people are the most hateful, evil people that I have ever seen,” the officer said of the protesters. “People were directly yelling at me as if I’m a criminal, and all I’m trying to do is just hear what the man has to say,” he said. “I’m a police officer and I have been through a lot of dramatic situations and I have to be honest, I felt very uncomfortable there.”
Officer Tatum said that he also gained a newfound respect for Mr. Trump, who he said is being treated unfairly by the press. “I was very impressed that he wasn’t a crazy psychopath like some would say,” he said. “I think that if you want to know the truth about stuff, you got to examine it, you got to physically show up. You show up to events and you’ll get a perspective of what’s really going on and you won’t have to listen to what anybody else says.” “This was an eye opening experience for me,” Officer Tatum added.
His video had been viewed more than 740,000 times as of Monday afternoon.

Once again liberals are outed as vicious, crude, idiots.....
They are vial. And liars. They claim they are anti-racist, free speech, but they are aren't at all. They are a racist and hate filled group. I hope Trump wins and Deports half this filth.
Well, that is one person's opinion.
But of course his opinion is not what the media wants to report on, nor what anti-Trumpers want to hear.
Hating racism is not racism.
Your word twisting is a futile and ineffectual effort to mask what you are, Pee wee download (15).jpg

It certainly can be, especially when, like you, people constantly use it when there is no racism. You're basically saying that white people can't disagree with anyone but white people or you and your "brother" will run around the board with Evince and call everyone a racist.
FAIL

You're never getting rid of racism. Are you aware that whites aren't the only racist people. Have you asked blacks how they feel about Mexicans?
Have you asked Arabs how they feel about jews? Asked Chinese folk how they feel about Japanese?
Are you down for rounding them all up and kicking them out?

I'd like to kick out illegal criminals, and terrorists and not have open borders. Guess that makes me "racist."
I would however be in favor of permanent residency for those who are working and paying taxes.
The left hides behind the idea that they are "racist warriors" but in fact they are fascists, and don't want to hear competing ideas.
