...Khondoker Usama, student body vice president, took a break from partying to go to a local Kwik Shop to get a snack and some gas. And it was there that he said he ran into a Donald Trump supporter with a chip on his shoulder.
Usama first noticed the man — white, in his 20s or 30s, motorcycle in tow — because the motorcyclist was berating a black man who Usama thought had asked for some gas money.
“The man was yelling at the African American guy, calling him a lazy ass, saying, ‘You guys don’t work,'” Usama told The Washington Post in a telephone interview. “He was using racial slurs.”
Then, the man turned his attention to Usama, a 23-year-old Muslim senior from Bangladesh, and his friend, a Hispanic male. He pulled his bike in front of Usama’s green Acura.
“We both have brown skin color,” Usama said. “… He said, ‘Hey you brown trash, you better go home.'”
Usama said his friend replied: “It’s my country. Who the hell are you to tell me, ‘Go home?'” The man pushed Usama’s friend and said, according to Usama: “Say that again.” Usama’s friend pushed back.
Then, Usama said the beating began.

“He was shouting, ‘Trump!'” Usama said. “‘Trump will take our country from you guys!'”
The man eventually got back on his bike and, before police arrived, circled Usama and his now prostrate friend. (The alleged beating was reported by the Wichita Eagle early Monday morning.)
“He was chanting, ‘Trump! Trump! Trump!'” Usama said. “‘Make America great again! You guys are the losers! You guys, we’ll throw you over the wall!'” Usama added: “You know, the usual things you see at a Trump rally.”

In a separate incident in Evanston, Ill., two Northwestern University students were accused of vandalizing a nondenominational chapel on campus, spray-painting racist and homophobic messages, including a swastika, according to the Chicago Tribune. The two wrote Trump’s name inside the chapel, the Tribune reported.
The people doing this are not only wrong, but they are not helping Trump and are only furthering media narratives. Neither of these stories seem to have hit the big media yet as far as the TV news, but they can really play these incidents up. That will actually lead to more division, and the protesters will become more violent.
I'm sure some will speculate that possibly the people involved in these things aren't Trump supporters but are doing this to make Trump look bad. There are nuts out there, so it can't be ruled out.
However, if the article is taken on face value and these things are done by Trump supporters, it's not right.
Someone spray painted a Swastika outside Palisades Charter High School here in LA, the local media here couldn’t wait to blame it on Trump supporters..even though unfortunately these kinds of incidents are common, have been going on for years, but the media couldn’t wait to start blaming Trump for it
Made up Bullsh*t propaganda from the left who are genuinely afraid of Trump because he will F*** up their political agenda.
Reminds me of the ‘story’ of how Pelosi walked thru Tea Party protest and got spat on.
Never happened, no video, no evidence but reported worldwide as fact.
I know that some people do bad things, and some people are bigots, and some people are violent.
That being said, most gas stations and campuses have CCTV Security systems.
Why are both of these apocryphal stories not accompanied by a video?
“I’m sure some will speculate that possibly the people involved in these things aren’t Trump supporters but are doing this to make Trump look bad. There are nuts out there, so it can’t be ruled out.”
Can’t be ruled out? Why is it ruled in?
If they are even true. There have been so many false claims of racism recently.
Of course it's staged, don't be a fool. And don't ask others to be fools, either.
Why should the article be taken at face value? "Activicst college students" are known liars, the media is a known accomplice to these types of lies, everything described sounds like a caricature of a Trump supporters, and is likely exactly that.
You can almost be sure they were Sanders brown shirts, not anyone having anything to do with Trump. The MO has Commie writing all over it. By the way, I have been a Cruz man until lately.
The motive is unclear.
Social Justice Warriors always lie.
Social Justice Warriors always project.
Social Justice Warriors always double down.
According to Usama, police requested video footage of the indecent but were denied when a Kwik Shop manager wasn’t present. I would assume police will eventually get it.
I actually saw this in USA Today first, and they said that police are trying to get video. This is the quote:
According to Usama, police requested video footage of the indecent but were denied when a Kwik Shop manager wasn’t present.

Since everyone owns a smartphone or is ‘captured’ by security cameras, can we see the video?
Of is this another fake out by liberals pretending to be victims?
Usama added: “You know, the usual things you see at a Trump rally.”
Riiiiight.
Great fairytale but you’d have thought they would have included an Asian woman.
I’d be willing to put money on the Northwestern Students being Bernie Bros...
