The idea is not for the petition to succeed, but to give hope by showing how many of us won't accept the thought of Trump as our president.
Don't people do that with their votes? Aren't people doing that with their votes?
Personally, I'd like to see him arrested. How is this even happening as publicly as it is with zero repercussions for Trump's actions? You know he will continue this.
This is one of the more insane things ever posted on the forum
Authorities in North Carolina are considering whether to press charges against GOP presidential front-runner Donald Trump after a protester was assaulted during one of his rallies in Fayetteville, according to WRAL.com.
The Cumberland County sheriff’s office confirmed it is considering charges in a statement to the Washington Post.
Yes. This is insane and a massive overreach. Again...I am not a Trump supporter but this is the kind of thing Hugo Chavez did to his political opponents and only gives credence to those who claim the left is intent on creating a "socialist tyranny". People need to take a deep breath and consider what they are advocating.

Trump could be prosecuted based on Brandenburg v. Ohio (1969). Free speech is not absolute if that speech "is directed to inciting or producing imminent lawless action and is likely to incite or produce such action". That being said, a petition to the President is not going to get it done.
This is what I will say about the Trump rally I attended Saturday…alone.
It was scary. This man knows just what to say to fire up his crowd, no matter how factually inaccurate it may be.
Wall! ISIS! Kill Them! Mexico!
Then there was the blatant fear mongering. He told Ohioans that only oil was propping up their state, and that their economy was in serious trouble. He said this over and over again.
He also told the crowd that ISIS was out to kill them. That ISIS was putting 50 people at a time in cages and drowning them in the ocean. And that we had to kill them first.
Cheers for water boarding. Cheers for torture. Calls to cut off their heads.
If this was a brown person saying the exact same things in the Middle East, we’d call them a dangerous terrorist. But since it’s a white man in America, we call him a Presidential Candidate.
The scariest part was the crowd. They loved everything that was being said. The calls for the wall. The calls to blow up oil fields. The calls to torture and kill people.
And the protestors. Every time a protestor was kicked out, they were yells to get them out of here, even to KILL THEM!!!
Really? Kill them? For protesting?
I felt like at any point, the crowd was going to light torches and grab their pitchforks, and spill out into the streets.
The worst part was when their venom turned toward me. There were protestors around me who got ushered out, and then people started pointing at me, motioning for the Secret Service to “get him out of there”.
Now mind you, I hadn’t uttered a single word the entire rally, but people still said things like “Well what about this one? He needs to go too!”
At this point, the black kid that grew up in the projects, surrounded by drugs and gunfire, felt CONCERNED for his safety…at a Donald Trump rally.
At that rally, I saw the scary underbelly of America. I saw unadulterated hate, fueled by intentional misinformation.
These people who, just 2 hours ago, seemed like good and kind people, were now cheering for blood.
The worst part is Donald Trump knows EXACTLY what he’s doing. He’s patterned his campaign after a WWE match…
This kind of thing is only going to get worse. How many here would celebrate if Trump supporters showed up at a Sanders rally in a similar effort? They would be widely condemned, correct? And they would deserve to be. This is not how our political process is supposed to unfold.
Drumpf has already threatened to do that. He would be personally responsible.
aahhh politics. Nasty shit happens behind the scenes but when it comes affront people are aghast. People don't like when others tell it like it is.
So you admit that the Trump protesters are telling it like it is? Is that why the Trump supporters are getting so mad?
If people went to protest at a Bernie rally, Bernie's supporters wouldn't attack them. But even if they did, Bernie would immediately condemn it, not support it.

And it’s working.
Trump is a bully and a coward and he proves this more and more as each day passes.
It's also very easy to see that many, perhaps most, of Trumps supporters are angry, hate filled people (mostly whites) who are caught up in a frenzy of false beliefs ("make America great again", "make America strong" etc.) much like, for example, German citizens were during the rise of Hitler.
"Pretty cookies, heart squares all around, yeah!" -Eddie Vedder, "Smile"
Yes, it really does reek of Hitler's rise..... Enough people are conscious of this for it not to succeed, but I really hate to think that there are still millions in America who are getting off on it. Sickening. I hope someday they get some perspective and feel regret for what they are supporting right now.

No, Trump tells it how he sees it and many people don't like it. Who wants to devote time out of their life to protest Bernie? cmon, it's Bernie
If a person who was sitting in a 10c seat wearing Nickelback clothing at a PJ concert started shouting at EV all night that PJ sucks and Nickelback is better would that draw ire?

I was being facetious, but anyway, Trump does not tell it how he sees it. He just knows how stupid his supporters are and says what will make them vote for him. I can't believe it's actually working and that people think he's telling the truth, lmao. Ridiculous and scary at the same time.

I actually sat a few rows down from that person in Moline. He kept screaming that Eddie should sing and not play guitar. He was very adamant about that.

Trump sees it like a bigot and so do many of his supporters. Is it any surprise that others are terrified of him and his racist entourage? The fact that he could end up being the Republican nominee is a terrifying thought and really goes a long way to show that the United States has a really nasty underbelly.

You said it.
I stand by it as well; anyone who openly supports such a repugnant and bigoted human being for the most powerful office on this planet is seriously disturbed. So far Trump has done nothing other than providing the most hateful racists and bigots a very loud mouthpiece. Fortunately I have faith in the rest of your country to put Trump and the bigots who support him in their place.
So I just read that Will Quiig (KKK asshole bighead) is backing Hillary... Guess she is a racist too. Or maybe these dumbasses are just trying to get in the news?
I agree, which is why we need to let the political process play out. Rushing the stage at his events, calling for his arrest...these kind of tactics play right into his hands.

I cannot stress enough how bad of an idea it is for Democrats to seek the arrest of the potential Republican nominee.
