The Donald Trump supporter who was caught on tape sucker-punching a black protester during a Wednesday night rally said "Next time, we might have to kill him." Inside Edition tracked down John McGraw, 78, who was later charged with assault and battery for the incident, and he was boastful of his violent act: "You bet I liked it. Knocking the hell out of that big mouth," he said of punching 26-year-old Rakeem Jones. Asked why he chose to throw a punch, McGraw, said, "We don’t know if he’s ISIS. We don’t know who he is, but we know he’s not acting like an American, cussing me. If he wants it laid out, I laid it out." And on whether Jones deserved to be hit, McGraw declared, "Yes, he deserved it. The next time we see him, we might have to kill him. We don’t know who he is. He might be with a terrorist."

From what I gather from the video (no audio), the protestor shouted something and then this guy swung.
I like the cut of his jib.
This cat reminds me of Rudy Boesch, from the first “Survivor”, Borneo
Too bad the old guy didn’t knock Rakeem out. Rakeem seems like the type that plays the knock out game. I wonder how many old white ladies he’s beaten down in his career?
Mr. Trump isn’t responsible for attendees at his rallies, but the media will try to make this into something it ain’t.
Setting aside the legal problems, I like the old guys spunk. The kid apparently mouthed off and he decked him with one pop.
He’s on video encouraging this and promising to pay legal bills.
So now its OK to punch people who “seem like” they may have done something ?
I can’t believe what I’m reading here.
Are you people serious? Do you know that this could apply to you as well?
I’d buy that old guy a beer.
You think he’s going to have anything to do with this guy? After what he said? I think The Donald will flop like a fish rather than have anything to do with this cretin.
The Donald has had lots of fun sowing the wind, but now he’s going to pretend he had nothing to do with the blowback.
>>>Mr. Trump isn’t responsible for attendees at his rallies,
He’s been inciting it for some time. It’s no surprise.
something tells me this guy is a dem or left plant. I guess we’ll know in the next couple days.
Maybe not that helpful but...
the guy can go into that good night knowing his obit is going to be great!
Was that a right cross? I'm 10 years younger and slower.
This is the part where we become the thing we hate.
Those of us who have been around that long remember that we were outraged that we could live in a country where you could be assaulted for protesting. And then grabbed by the cops for the crime of being hit.
Now, we have idiots here cheering it on.
It's not been a good evolution around here. It's been a destructive rot.
Yeah, right cross. But it wasn’t a ‘sucker punch’. This punk Rakeem crashed the rally, trespassed for the purpose of being disruptive. I read here he was shouting and making obscene gestures at the crowd. The old man was right there. He didn’t come up behind him.
Was this kid asking to get punched? No. He was begging for a butt kicking. Sean Kelly called the old man a racist, and said the kid was punched more than once. BS.
The kid gets to live with getting clocked face-to-face by a white guy old enough to be his great grandpa.
Way to go Pappy Popeye! I’m fed up with the punks too.
All of you reeling for your fainting couches, some of us have had our ration of BS from the left ....
What a dirtbag... He’s as bad as BLMs...
I bet the media will run with this. The Dems are scared to death of Trump because he has a chance to get a significant amount of the black vote.
So they will do everything possible to tie him in with the KKK, David Duke and old white racists from the South.
