These are just from the ones that stand out the most - it's a daily occurrence with way too many to remember because they blend together. Below are only the recent ones that stand out the most:

Man arrested after shouting ‘womp, womp’ and PULLING A GUN on immigration protesters
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/ma ... Nw?ocid=st

Quote:

Holder-Joffrion still had her eyes closed, and she said her husband, Democratic congressional candidate Peter Joffrion, didn’t see a scuffle — just a protester telling Sealy to “leave, leave, leave, leave.”

In any case, the weapon came out of the waistband.

“Gun, gun, gun, gun!” someone shouted in video published by WAFF 48 — just as Holder-Joffrion was praying for the nation’s strength.

Panicked shouts drowned her out, and the camera turned from the priest to Sealy, about 15 feet from the gazebo, brandishing what appeared to be a pistol at the crowd.

Maxine Waters Cancels Two Public Appearances After Receiving a 'VERY SERIOUS DEATH THREAT'

http://time.com/5326177/maxine-waters-death-threat-cancels-event/

Quote:

individual in Texas which is why my planned speaking engagements in Texas and Alabama were cancelled this weekend,” she continued. “This is just one in several very serious threats the United States Capitol Police are investigating in which individuals threatened to shoot, lynch, or cause me serious bodily harm.”

Group chat messages show SCHOOL SHOOTER obsessed with race, violence and guns

https://www.cnn.com/2018/02/16/us/exclu ... index.html

Quote:

In his first message to the chat group, Cruz bragged about writing a letter to President Donald Trump -- and receiving a response. CNN reached out to the White House for comment about any correspondence to and from Cruz but has not heard back.

This isn’t an isolated incident either, for example the prior school shooting –

(*NOT WITHIN THE PAST COUPLE MONTHS) Florida high SCHOOL SHOOTING SUSPECT [LATER CONFIRMED] Nikolas Cruz's Instagram profile shows him wearing MAGA hat

https://www.aol.com/article/news/2018/02/15/florida-high-school-shooting-suspect-nikolas-cruzs-instagram-profile-shows-him-wearing-maga-hat/23362848/

Quote:

The teenage gunman accused of slaughtering 17 people at a Florida high school on Wednesday had posted a photo of himself wearing one of President Donald Trump's signature red MAGA hats on Instagram, the social media site confirmed.

The photo in question shows 19-year-old Nikolas Cruz wearing a hat that features Trump's "Make America Great Again" campaign slogan and an American-flag-colored bandana that covers the bottom half of his face.

Milo Yiannopoulos Jokes of DEATH SQUADS Murdering Journalists

http://fortune.com/2018/06/26/milo-yiannopoulos-jokes-of-death-squads-murdering-journalists/

Quote:

“I can’t wait for the vigilante squads to start gunning journalists down on sight,” Yiannopoulos frequently writes via email or text message to reporters who contact him.

Following Annapolis shooting, journalists contemplate angry readers, DEATH THREATS and backlash

http://www.philly.com/philly/news/annapolis-capital-journalists-danger-violence-backlash-20180629.html

Quote:

In addition to prompting increased security at news organizations across the country, Thursday’s shooting triggered a reflection of sorts for some journalists who have dealt with angry subjects and threats of violence over the years.

Some reporters have said after the Annapolis shooting that overall rhetoric related to journalism has soured since President Trump’s candidacy.

Note: following the shooting many reporters tweeted about the death threats they have received.

David Hogg’s family was SWATTED. That’s extremely dangerous.

https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2018/6/5/17429258/david-hogg-swatting-parkland-shooting

Quote:

It’s not clear who swatted Hogg’s family or why. But Hogg has been the target of vitriolic comments and attacks following the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting in February, as he became a vocal advocate for gun control. Right-wing pundits in particular have taken personal jabs at Hogg, with a conservative commentator from the Sinclair Broadcasting Group resigning after he threatened “to ram a hot poker up David Hogg’s ass.”

The swatting prank, though, takes things to a whole new level — potentially putting Hogg and his family in danger.

Woman ASSAULTED BLACK BOY After Telling Him He ‘Did Not Belong’ at Pool, Officials Say

https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/01/us/pool-patrol-paula.html

Quote:

The newspaper reported that she told the boy, 15, and his friends that “they did not belong” at the pool, instructed them to leave and hit the teenager in his face and chest.

The episode comes after other cases of the police being called on black people for minor or nonexistent transgressions, such as taking a nap in a Yale common room or sitting down and asking to use the restroom in a Starbucks without buying anything.

Some of these cases — often involving white people — have spawned alliterative nicknames for those at the center of the episode: #BBQBecky, for a white woman in Oakland, Calif., who called the police on black men for using a charcoal grill in a park; #PermitPatty, for a white woman in San Francisco who appeared to call the authorities on an 8-year-old black girl for “illegally selling water without a permit”; and now #PoolPatrolPaula, for Ms. Sebby-Strempel.

/\ THESE INCIDENT OCCUR ON A DAILY BASIS (this article used since it is one of the most violent and it notes the other similar occurrences -many of them repeating phrases Trump and his supporters often use. Just yesterday this happened --

Angry racist berates woman for wearing a Puerto Rico shirt in America — without realizing it’s part of the US

https://www.rawstory.com/2018/07/angry-racist-berates-woman-wearing-puerto-rico-shirt-america-without-realizing-part-us/

Quote:

An angry racist man was caught on camera over the weekend berating a woman for wearing a shirt with the Puerto Rican flag on it in the United States — despite the fact that Puerto Rico is actually a U.S. territory.

Very long story short, these are all daily and frequent occurrences in this day and age.

JUNE 28TH - reporters come forward about DEATH THREATS

Quotes from reporters coming forward concerning death threats they are receiving from Trump's supporters:

Quote:

I’ve been getting an influx of death threats over the past week. I know other journalists who have as well. These things are organized, coordinated, and serious. We’ve pretended they weren’t for way too long. - Jared Yates Sexton, Salon NYT NewRepublic Politico

https://twitter.com/JYSexton/status/1012436043365257216
Quote:
Today, journalists were murdered. Many others, including myself, were the targets of death threats. There won't be one second of self-reflection on the right for their violent anti-media rhetoric. Because, at the end of the day, they know what they're getting paid for. - John Ladrarola, TheDamageReport TheYoungTurks

https://twitter.com/johniadarola/status/1012570796366094337
Quote:

Plenty of reporters, including me, receive death threats all the time, particularly after Trump launches another tirade against us. Some have been so threatened, they now carry guns. Regardless of what the motive of Annapolis shooter is, this insanity must stop. - Kurt Eichenwald, NYT

https://twitter.com/kurteichenwald/status/1012477801415495680
Quote:

I've had people email death threats, threaten to cut my dog's throat, tell me I'd pay for my fake news. My mom told me to stop tagging my neighborhood on Instagram, I told her she was over-reacting. - Anne Helen Petersen, BuzzFeedNews

https://twitter.com/annehelen/status/1012433292363042817
Quote:

Some are linking to President Trump's tweet calling the media "the enemy of the American People." A few anonymous posters are also talking to me: "I hope you're next!" - Drew Harwell, Washington Post

Includes photos:

Quote:

I hope it is just the worst parts of the Internet. One of my scariest voicemails was a Trump supporter saying “we’re going to get every one of you motherf*ing liberals.” (This is after my address had been put on a blog.) The hate in his voice was scarier than his words. - Cara Fitzpatrick, Tampa Bay Times

These could, similarly, go on forever.

This is the most recent, I will continue posting these and similar reports here as they arise (which is, sadly, often).

Woman BEATS a 91-year-old Mexican Man WITH A BRICK, TELLS HIM to ‘GO BACK TO YOUR COUNTRY’

Quote:

Mendoza told The Washington Post that Rodolfo Rodriguez, a permanent resident of the United States, had been attacked with a brick and taken to the hospital with a broken cheekbone and two broken ribs.

Misbel Borjas saw the assault as it happened.

Traffic had slowed Borjas’s car at a corner in Willowbrook, Calif., around 7 p.m. on July 4. Rodriguez accidentally bumped into a young girl while walking on the sidewalk, Borjas told The Washington Post. Borjas, a 35-year-old Los Angeles resident, watched the child’s mother — a black woman — push the elderly man to the ground and repeatedly bash him in the face with a concrete brick while yelling, “Go back to your country.”

A bus rider tells a woman in a head scarf 'ICE should take her kids away'

Quote:

Marco Lao, who posted the video to Twitter and YouTube on Tuesday, said the woman in the head scarf had trouble getting her stroller on the bus and the other woman yelled at her.

The two argued, he said, but Lao found it hard to hear what the woman with the stroller was saying.

The screaming woman began to spew Muslim stereotypes, and told the woman in the head scarf that "ICE should take her kids away," he said.

After he began recording, Ashley yelled at the woman, claiming she is not a citizen and cannot speak English. The woman says something that cannot be understood from the recording.

"Immigration at the door," Ashley yells. "Oh wait, is that ICE? Oh, mama, they here for you."

https://www.cnn.com/2018/07/12/us/mta-bus-racial-incident-trnd/index.html

Note that these incidents with these “fine people” are a daily occurrence because they rear their “civil” heads so often, so I won’t be able to catch them all - especially since I’m trying to stay away from twitter. But, search online and you’ll be sure to see more whenever I don’t post one.

Man Accused Of Threatening To Kill Supporters Of Trump And New York Congressman

Quote:

A man almost ran over a campaign volunteer with his car after threatening to kill supporters of President Trump and Rep. Lee Zeldin at the New York Republican congressman's campaign headquarters on Long Island on Friday, police said.

Martin Astrof, 75, confronted a campaign worker at Zeldin's campaign office in Nesconset on Friday morning at 11:15 a.m. ET, according to Suffolk County police. "After threatening to kill the campaign worker and other supporters, Astrof backed his car up in an aggressive manner nearly striking the worker," a police statement read.

Astrof left and was arrested outside his home in Nesconset shortly after.

In a tweet, Zeldin identified the campaign worker as Donato Panico.

Astrof has been charged with making a terroristic threat and reckless endangerment, police said, and he was jailed overnight awaiting an expected arraignment on Saturday. The New York Daily News reports that Astrof's lawyer declined to comment on the case.

McConnell chased from KY restaurant by protesters

Quote:

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell was followed to his car Saturday by protesters who hurled both personal insults and political rhetoric at him while he left a Kentucky restaurant.

The encounter, which took place in a parking lot outside of a Louisville restaurant, was captured on camera by one of the protesters. In the video, you can hear the group of protesters chanting "vote you out!" and "abolish ICE!" to the Republican senator from Kentucky. One man can be heard calling the senator "turtle head" and repeatedly saying "we know where you live" as the senator and two dining companions climb into their parked vehicle.

The encounter was the second one to occur to McConnell in the last two weeks. In late June, the senator and his wife, Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao, were confronted by protesters in Washington, DC, while leaving an event at Georgetown University.
According to the Post, hundreds of people were protesting Saturday outside Louisville's Immigration and Customs Enforcement Office, just a few miles from the restaurant. Among the protesters were members of the local chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America. When someone noticed McConnell at the restaurant, they called on the protesters to confront the senator.
"If the Leader comments on being called a fascist and a supporter of ICE by a small handful of extremist protesters then I will let you know," McConnell's spokesman, David Popp, told the Post after the incident.

Popp repeated the remark in a statement to CNN.
Like the group of Washington protesters, the Louisville group took aim at McConnell for his support of the Trump administration's detention of families who illegally cross the border. McConnell does not, however, support the administration's now-reversed policy of separating immigrant children from their parents.

Stephen Miller trashed $80 of sushi after restaurant worker cursed him out

Quote:

White House senior adviser Stephen Miller was so outraged when a bartender gave him both middle fingers that he dumped $80 worth of sushi in the trash, according to a report published Monday.

Miller, 32, was picking up a takeout order from a restaurant near his City Center apartment in Washington, DC, when the barman followed him out into the street and shouted, “Stephen!” before making the rude gesture and cursing him out.

The incident made Miller feel a little raw — so he immediately threw out his pricey meal, he later told co-workers, according to the Washington Post report.

Boo hooo! Maybe these turd faced Repukes should maybe stop and THINK about WHY they are so hated instead of whining about it. You push and push and push... expect a reaction eventually.

How does this differ from Trump urging his followers to beat up on members of the media?

Trump has more influence and power.

Seemed more like trump was flippantly shooting his mouth off about one person at a given place and time...

Sure. We get it. "I was just shooting off my mouth" ... "I was just joking" ... "It was fake news" ... "Obama!" ...

Donald J. Trump is such an untrustworthy coward that when caught saying something that he knows is a lie, he will tell another lie or try to get people riled up about something else.

Leftist Mob Hurls Feces At Pro-Trump Kosher Coffee Shop

Quote:

A pro-Trump coffee shop in L.A.'s Boyle Heights took a barrage of feces being hurled at it by protesters who say the owner's views do not represent the rapidly gentrifying neighborhood.

According to CBS local, the protestors went as far to shut down the grand opening of the Asher Caffe & Lounge over the owner's support of Trump's immigration policies.

Eater LA reports that 30 people attended the protest in connection with the group Defend Boyle Heights (DBH), which referred to the shop owner as "an anti-immigrant trump loving gentryfier" in a Facebook post.

"This Gentry business is trying to creep in without folks noticing that their owner is an anti-immigrant Trump loving gentryfier," the post reads. "If he hates immigrants so much, he can stay the f**k out of our hood!"

"In #BoyleHeights we love and defend immigrants! Show up bring signs and show these f*****s how we stand up for our immigrant families and neighbors!"

The tip-off to the owner's pro-Trump stance came when one of his other companies, Asher Fabrics Concept, retweeted one of Trump’s messages about his proposed travel ban from hostile counties — what leftists wrongfully refer to as a "Muslim ban."

The owner's son, David Shalom, said the protesters even "accosted" customers.

"They really intensely protested and accosted all the visitors that came to our grand opening event," said David.

Shalom's daughter, Yael, said the mob began throwing feces on the windows.

"It was very scary," said Yael. "There was a lot of people protesting outside wearing masks […] and they threw a significant amount of feces at our windows."

An exclusive photograph obtained by The Daily Wire from the Asher Caffe & Lounge confirmed the feces-throwing did take place:

CBS local reports that the DBH group used "similarly aggressive tactics against another coffee shop in the area last year and against an art gallery nearby that eventually shuttered."

rump Supporter Arrested For Throwing Chicken Poop At Red Hen Restaurant That Tossed Sarah Huckabee Sanders

Quote:

Stephanie Wilkinson asked her to leave. Sanders promptly tweeted out the name of the restaurant to her Twitter followers, a following which totals approximately 3 million.

Wilkinson’s identity was exposed online by numerous online groups and distributed, a practice known as doxxing.

Local news station NBC4i reports that a man by the name of Reginald Scott Lee was arrested outside the restaurant for littering and disorderly conduct, both of which are misdemeanors.

Those charges, however, don’t adequately describe the bizarre allegations against Lee, which include the Trump supporter expressing his right to protest and defend the president’s honor by hurling chicken feces at a local restaurant. Photos of the scene show the chicken poop on the ground in front of Red Hen. While clever signage and chanting are common at such politically charged protests, Virginia police seem to agree that tossing fecal matter is not protected under the right to peaceful protest, as guaranteed by the First Amendment.

“Fine people”

A mayor is assaulted because of his pro-immigrant stance. Police are investigating it as a hate crime

Burien Mayor Jimmy Matta was downtown for an annual community event Saturday. An older white man grabbed him by the neck from behind and pushed him to the ground, the city said in a statement.

The man told Matta he "wasn't going to let your people take over" and that "illegals aren't going to take over our community," Burien Police Chief Ted Boe told reporters.

Trump’s Nazis recently assaulted a mayor.

And this is just talking very recent. It’s like non-stop with what Trump’s brown shirts are doing on a daily basis. It’s scary.

Houston mosque set on fire as Muslim community seeks answers to possible hate crime

In better news, the last Trumpster who attacked a mosque in Texas was recently found as guilty.

White Nationalists who jumped black man in a bar charged with hate crime

https://www.theroot.com/white-nationali ... 1827746871

Only some of the reports, here is a catch-all though (since these articles pour in at an alarming rate - just google “hate crime” to see daily reports (unsurprisingly the targets are the ones Trumpsters go after the most)). A new FBI hate crime study report has been released.

New data shows U.S. hate crimes continued to RISE in 2017

The six most frequently targeted groups in 2016, according to the FBI, were African-Americans; lesbians, gays and bisexuals; whites; Jews; Latinos; and Muslims. Race continued to be the most common category, comprising 57 percent of all hate crimes. Although African-Americans remained the most targeted group.

2017 data:

Anti-Black, anti-Semitic, anti-gay and anti-Latino were the most common type of hate crimes, but there was some variation.

Hmm, all of the groups Trump and his supporters go after all the time. How surprising (sarcasm).

Its not fascist to confront politicians, that is called freedom of speech. Also what the hell after all the talk of how 'evil' and oppressive political correctness from conservatives they are calling for more civility? I thought we were all snowflakes and s**t if we spoke out but suddenly its too 'mean' to confront politicians when you see them in public due to bad polices they support?

Double standards anyone?

Please do post the link to this, I am certainly curious of people threatening to kill the president having absolutely no penalties brought against them whatsoever.
