I could be, however I don’t think the video of him dragging the American flag on the ground are a hoax.

Considering the violence that occurred in Chicago last night, anyone who would attempt to violently attack on a top presidential candidate are acting in a terrorist manner. If it quacks like a duck.

“The part about the ISIS connection could be a hoax:http://www.buzzfeed.com/jimdalrympleii/trump-claims-protester-has-isis-connections-but-it-actually?utm_term=.obxaPMjjN#.qmwKgYPPZ";


That report on BuzzFeed is quite convincing, and even Donald Trump seems to be backing down from his initial claim that that dirty hippie that tried to attack him (of whose Leftism there can be no doubt) is an ISIS member or supporter (Trump is now saying “hey, I just said what I read on the Internet” and changed the subject to how the guy is a flag-desecrating scumbag).

So why is this thread still on Breaking News, with a headline that accepts as good the hoax that that Leftist loser is affiliated with ISIS? I’m not asking why the story initially was posted, nor why it initially was placed in Breaking News (before the story was debunked as a hoax, it definitely merited Breaking News treatment), but now that it’s clear that the headline and main subject of the article is incorrect, there’s no way that tbe thread should remain in Breaking News, at least without all-caps text on the title that reads “[UPDATE: CLAIM OF ISIS CONNECTION IS A HOAX].”

BTW, the same holds true for the Breaking News post immediately preceding this one (which also reports the ISIS hoax).
