The Black Lives Matter protester attacked during Donald's Trump's Birmingham rally said he was punched, kicked and called "n****r" while a group of eight or nine people were on top of him.
Mercutio Southall Jr., a well-known activist who said he has been tased at least 30 times and just recently marched heavily âarmed through a Birmingham neighborhood to teach people about gun rights, said he is sore after today's pummeling but doesn't think he was seriously injured.
"I'm alive,'' Southall told AL.com in his first interview since he was escorted out of the Birmingham- Jefferson Convention Complex.
Southall said he attended today's rally because of Trump's disparaging remarks about minorities â blacks, Latinos and most recently Muslims. "Birmingham is 75 percent black, so why did he choose to come here,'' Southall said. "He could have gone to Mountain Brook or Hoover, I know they have the venues that can handle his rhetoric."
Southall said the fracas began when one of his fellow activists was recording their presence at the rally, which they always do. He said, "I'm recording this live from the BJCC because we want Donald Trump to know he's not welcome here," and that's when someone knocked the phone out of the other man's hand.
"They said 'Go home, n****r, and somebody punched me,'' Southall said. "I punched back. You know don't do the turn-the-other-cheek (expletive)."
He said people encircled him, and he was being pushed and punched from every direction. Someone hit him from behind, and the next thing he knew, he was at the bottom of pile. He was kicked in the stomach, and the chest, both men and women. "I got enough people off of me that I was able to get up a little bit,'' he said. "Somebody got behind me and started...

Black Protester Attacked at Donald Trump Rally Called ‘Monkey’ and Other Racial Slurs, He Says.
He Says. Right!
I doubt the account is accurate. I also don’t believe Birmingham is 75% black.
A lot of pictures of this guy being arrested.... but none of the brawl that he describes. Maybe it happened but the writer doesn’t seem to have uncovered any other witnesses.
African-Americans should be more concerned about ISIS, then Donald Trump!!! Remember, folks, the Muslim forebears of ISIS were the slavetraders that promoted and carried out the capture of Sub-Sahara Black Africans and then the sale to Europeans who carried out the slave trade!!! They will not kindly to “Christian” African-Americans...you can be assured of that!!! Som folks just cannot see the forest for the trees!!!
And....if African-Americans think Obama is their savior...then they have been smoking too much reefer, or they are insane...or, just plain foolish!!! Obama is with the Muslim Brotherhood/ISIS...not any Americans...including, African-Americans!!! SAD....that these good folks have blinders on!!! Ya can lead a horse to water....but...ya cannot make him or her drink!!!
I hope Trump takes it further. ID the kicker and if she truly is a supporter( which I doubt) publicly rebuke her then tell all his supporters that this type behavior will not be tolerated.
In feces...don't forget the cr@p!
Looks like he is full of chitlins.
“This is unfortunate.”
And likely horsepuckey.
Go to Alabama and act out. You will get an Alabama azz kicking. We don’t call it that in the South for nothing. Even in GA a bad beatdown is called an Alabama azz kicking. :-)
“He was kicked in the stomach, and the chest, both men and women” “They said go home N——r”
What can I say its Alabama. It happened. :-)
” I also donât believe Birmingham is 75% black.”
I can see you have not been to Birmingham. :-)
My grandad used to call the nigra. He was only referring to them as they were known back in the day. He didn't mean anything derogatory.
In fact, when I heard him say it, he said about this one fella...forget the guyz name, but say his name was Sam. My grandaddy said, “that ol Sam's a damn good nigra”. This is what he said.
So, the PC crowd is warping everything. Do you think for a moment blacks are NOT racist to some degree? Guess they wouldn't call us Blanco...Spanish for white cause it sound freakin stupid.
I've heard all sorts of black names for whites throughout the years. Poached egg (white on the outside, yellow in the middle), cracker, honkey and so on.
Folks need to get over themselves. Whites in today's society are not keeping the blacks down. Blacks stereotype themselves. Here's a novel idea...how bout brushin up on your social skills, learn how to interview, go to school..trade school or college and or stay in high school. Mind yourself...stop kickin up dust in society. Rise above the gubbamint plantation and WORK. Stop trying to find ways to scam the system, stop blaming the white guy for your own shortcomings. Need a hand up...that's cool. Everyone needs a hand every now and again...just don't make it a way of life through generations.
Pull your pants up, get rid of the gold front toof and gang affiliations. Stop smokin pot all day and get up and make it happen for yourself.
If you see yo bro lootin a store...go home. Your bro’s want to play the knockout game against elderly white men...go home instead.
Ok, Southall, where’s the video? All I see are pictures of you being arrested with your mouth going strong. If it really happened, where are those 8 individuals? And why, of all the thousands of people there did they pick you out of the crowd?
This is a cry-bully.
He thinks he has the right to heckle and name call as free speech, not disrupting others’ rights.
But receiving it in return, and he cries that he’s been bullied and hurt.
Because his message of jobs, opportunity and America first does resonate with many blacks?
“Black Protester Attacked at Donald Trump Rally Called ‘Monkey’ and Other Racial Slurs, He Says”
Suuuuurrrreeee they did.
With all the videos and such from this staged event. . .where is the proof?
This poofter is just doing another version of a made-up accusation that “He called me a N**er” to justify bad behavior.
Oh, now that just brakes my heart. ALL lives matter, idiot.
Sorry, but there are MANY videos of this showing him to be A LIAR
He looks like he got exactly what he wanted. Attention.
I do not believe anyone called him anything he claims.
