Take a look at this video footage which shows a young kid in a Keffiyeh being singled out and ejected by Trump security guards at the Donald J. Trump rally in Phoenix Convention Center on Wednesday, Aug. 31. I spoke with the security guard in the suit in this footage, and he told me: “He’s actually a really great kid, he just wanted to watch. But I can’t protect him in this crowd when there’s like 8,000 people out there.” Sad. Disgusting. All of the adjectives Donald Trump For President likes to spew about others.

I see no problem with removing a potential nut cake from such an event. This why we have the Secret Service protecting both candidates.
The guy knew he was provocative and was treated as a threat. Bully for those who made an ant-PC call, we need more like them!
Friend of yours, Bryan? Uncanny how you always seem to be in the right place at the right time. Uncanny…
Bisbee boy:
You would be the expert on nut cakes.
I look forward to seeing you and your welding equipment at the border, getting ready for a job that will never happen by a president that will never be.
You’ll be waiting there, looking like the nut cake which you are.
Probably shouldn’t have been ejected but also should not be stupid enough to wear that Muslim crap.
His whole face was covered. Of course he was ejected. No one dresses like that unless they’re trying to hide their identity or prove a point.
American fascism on display.
Hey if I showed up wearing a mask, pointed hood and white gown at Obama’s talk I would hope that I would be ejected immediately. Also if this did happen you would not read about it on this rag’s website.
The Keffiyeh is not a religious symbol in any way. Traditionally it was a Bedouin scarf but the meaning has changed over the last 70 years and it is now a piece of clothing that typically symbolizes solidarity or support of the Palestinian Nationalist movement. Depending on how it is worn it can have different meanings. It is not commonly worn as a full face covering, but when it is worn this way it is typically done so by soldiers or terrorists who are trying to hide their identity. Wearing it as a full face covering would seem to implicate something beyond a simple fashion statement or peaceful protest. This was an intentionally antagonistic incitement, possibly indicating support of Hamas or other terrorist groups. This was a private event and his removal was completely legal and appropriate but also most likely his goal.
I am not a Trump supporter and I would imagine someone wearing a white sheet and confederate flag would also be summarily removed from a Clinton rally. At least I would hope so.
