The 78-year-old psycho who sucker-punched a black protester being led out of a Donald Trump rally says, “Next time we see him, we might have to to kill him!” John McGraw, a cowboy hat-wearing Trump supporter, told Inside Edition minutes after throwing the punch Wednesday in Fayetteville, N.C., that he has no regrets for throwing the brutal blow. “We don’t know who he is. He might be with a terrorist organization,” he said. John McGraw, 78, of Linden, N.C., said there's more than just a punch in store for protesters at Trump rallies. The caught on camera smack came as uniformed personnel led 26-year-old Rakeem Jones from the event full of loyalists to the blowhard billionaire. Video shows McGraw sit back down after hitting Jones as his seatmates congratulate him on the dirty blow. McGraw was convinced the peaceful protester, who appeared to gesture to the crowd but did not use physical violence, deserved to be decked. “You bet I liked it,” he told Inside Edition of the rally. “Knocking the hell out of the big mouth.” Police later arrested the Linden man and charged him with assault and battery and disorderly conduct. The shocking incident was caught on camera. Violence at rallies for Trump, the leading GOP candidate for president, is nothing new. Police in Louisville, Ky., are investigating three reports of assaults there during a March 1 gathering for Trump. And Trump himself has frequently urged his staff to remove protesters, once telling the frothing crowd that someone speaking out would "leave on a stretcher" in the "old days." The shocking violence drew a sharp rebuke from New York City First Lady Chirlane McCray, who encouraged people to register to vote to combat Trump's surging campaign. "Although the punch seemed to come out of nowhere, violence and racism have been part of Trump’s campaign from the very beginning. Protesters often come under attack at Trump rallies," she said in a statement. "And the candidate himself seems eager to reprise his role as a WrestleMania combatant, saying of one protester, 'I’d like to punch him in the face.' Trump’s incendiary rhetoric is a timely reminder that we haven’t come as far as we might think since the days when Alabama Governor and staunch segregationist George Wallace said, 'If any demonstrator ever lays down in front of my car, it’ll be the last car he’ll ever lay down in front of.'"

Turnabout is fair play. Three Hispanic Men Charged after Pulling Gun on Donald Trump Supporter
Turnabout is fair play. Three Hispanic Men Charged after Pulling Gun on Donald Trump Supporter Care to point out to me where it says the three His-Panics that had the one gun are senior campaign advisers to Mrs. Bubba? I can't seem to find it,or any link to her telling her goons to attack Clinton protesters and she will pay their legal fees.
They may not have been. So it's not an exact parallel. So what? It was meant to illustrate that other candidates have extreme supporters, also.
