This is absolutely terrible. I can't make sense of this.

Take note that all of these incidents are in straight blue territory. NYC, Santa Monica, Cambridge, MA, even Detroit.

None of the people from "deplorable" territory have done anything like this. It seems that some people living in the cities are lashing out all of a sudden.

I just can't explain this.

I'm slowly learning some of these are fake. But the Santa Monica incident did that happen?

I noticed that and it makes sense. Big cities and especially certain big cities are where most people of different creeds live together. I would guess that in some very rural areas there aren't exactly many Muslims living there to harass. If any. In addition. Trump still won enough votes in those very populated blue areas to have a reasonable amount of supporters to draw from. In NYC at least the main events were at NYU, where there are students from all over the country attending. I didn't peruse through the specific events in the other cities to see if they were on college campuses. A decent amount were from high school level and below. Which is sad.

should I do some squats as well? you really bought into the bullshit drumpf was peddling, that's just sad. And good on ya for assuming where and how I get my news. So anyone other than fox or wikileaks are bought out shills, like I said, you're a fucking loon.
Nope, Fox and breitbart are also part of the bought-out media, where have you been? Start thinking for yourself, not what you've been told to think.

This race baiting BS is for the birds and constitute 0.1% of the populace behaving badly. Whoop-dee-fucking-do. It's exactly the plan of globalists to divide us by petty infighting.

Ah yes, "the globalists". That's replaced "international bankers" in popularity hasn't it?

One thing that stands out about these incidents is that I don't hear any of the witnesses describing what they actually did about the incident. If I hear a postal worker being racist at a gas station, I'd be in is fat ugly face immediately. I wouldn't just post a passive aggressive tweet about how appalled I am.

Furthermore, there are cameras at gas stations, in buses, in college buildings, in many of the places these incidents "happened". Many of them happened in crowded areas and I hear no evidence that anyone intervened or recorded or even spoke up. Where are the police reports? Why isn't film being subpoenaed from security cameras? Why is there no cell phone video of these incidents?

I'm really starting to think these reports are fake. If there are so many terrible racist things happening on day 1 of Trump America then why is there a need to fabricate more?

Here is a website this is supposedly identify all the BS for what it is:

http://www.fakehatecrimes.org/

These people are sick. They need to make up stories to project their perceived disadvantage now. Seems like a bunch from the "believe me because I'm saying it" camp. These are the real deplorables. Disgusting. They make it a sport to waste the time and resources of working people. I suppose lying and wasting resources is nothing new to these people.

It's exactly what it is. They think because they say it, it is true. Because all women/minorities, need to be believed and all white people are evil.

This is 100% gaslighting.

i really don't think victims are ready to immediately whip out their phones and start recording. it's a traumatic experience and in that quick moment a record button isn't pressed.

in multiple of these instances police reports are filed and/or someone like a teacher has reported them. in the others can't say one way or the other. a gas station security camcorder isn't going to catch someone taunting another anyways. there is no audio. a lot of these cases are verbal only. which is bad enough.

Cool, so victim blaming is your game?

Because this example the person took down the information and made a complaint, like an adult.

You'd get in someone's face and what? Behave like an asshole?

You'd think after getting fooled time and time again with fake hate crimes, people would start seeking out verification of these things before just assuming they are true......

I'm sure there are plenty of instances of hateful behavior, but this bullshit narrative about Trump driving such incidents is just that -- unsubstantiated bullshit.

You would think so but then again 60 million people just voted for trump. Logic, reasoning, verifying claims, just don't seem to be skills these people possess.

One slight problem. The people you are referring to are not the one being taken time and again by these fake incidents.

You're really going to have to start moving through those stages of grief.

Get used to it. Or find a new safe space.

That can't be real, we know only white people, right sided people can be racist. Oh wait, that's just what is pushed by the media.

"The sky is always blue"
"The weather is always sunny"
"Everyone is nice"
"Everyone is mean"
"All muslims are bad"
"All christians are nice"
"All trump supporters are racists bigots"
"All Hillary supporters are angels."

The only thing that is true about any of the above statements is that they are suffer from the same logical and factual fallacies.

You're whole post is a strawman, so kudos for going full-circle.

WAH! Because other people do bad things it forgives all the bad things that another group does!

Or:

WAH! We need to shame these people who don't agree with me before we deal with the people who agree with me!
