Comments by "Promethean Allegory" (@prometheanevent) on "Unfiltered Voices From Donald Trump's Crowds | The New York Times" video.
Like Bernie and Hillary rallies there are thousands of people at these rallies (well, maybe not so much for Hillary). One could easily pick out extreme and offensive behavior at any of these events. It's common to see anti-Trump rallies with people burning the American flag or waving the Mexican flag. As for F___ck ___ same thing. Even the internet if full of incredibly hateful language and aggressiveness toward Trump and his supporters. In the end, what's your point? Trump's positions are favored by millions of average and relatively moderate citizens who favor a sound policy toward the country's economy and immigration system. The fact that extremists favor the same policies means nothing.

P.S. Once America has been turned into Mexico, where are the Mexicans going to go who want to get the hell out of Mexico?

Actually,...I have a masters degree in history and a minor in psychology. I know my history. I also know what fascism is and it doesn't happen when people want to be left alone, want decentralized government with less control over people's lives, and lower taxes. America has been generous enough spending other people's money. If you think Hillary is awesome, go for it. Maybe she'll win, then you'll get "free" stuff for a couple of years. After that,...Venezuela.

The "Trump is pathological" ..."argument" is as classic as Theodore Adorno ( a Marxist of course). Basically, this "scientific insight" suggests that anyone with with a different view (lower taxes, decentralized government, etc) is obviously pathological. The whole leftist worldview is polluted with the arrogant idea that anyone who wants to be left alone and adhere to principles of limited government is "racist" or insane." Can't they just acknowledge that some people have different views on the role of government and present their side with a dash of reason.

the dan hibiki You so clearly showed that none of what I sited is true. Thank you for your insight.

Yawn and eye roll. Fine, vote for Hillary. Wave Mexican flags. Spit on American flags and whine about "social justice issues" from America's past. I'm not interested in converting the Jacobin rabble

"You are pretty dumb"...there's a good chance that I have more academic exposure and publications to my name than you but...'convincing polemic no doubt. Try going to Mexico (or any country), expect them to take you in, give you money, jobs, free medical and education, and elevate you to an esteemed victim status, then wave an American flag around. That scenario should give you a clue to the answer to your question.

Oh yeah, the reason the wall [fence] "has not worked so far" is because the current President has openly refused to enforce American immigration laws (the way Mexico does for those coming into their country illegally).

Rocky Rockwell seems to think that Clinton doesn't want to bomb countries and that an important issue in the election is what Donald Trump said in private 11 years ago. ...we all have different reasons for choosing the candidate we prefer. I'm going to go with, the choice for Supreme court appointees, the military/defense capability, the economy and overall business climate (thus, employment), and the general feelings the contender has toward our country and its people. Half our citizens are not deplorable. An American president should love America and want it to be number one for a variety of practical reasons...and not a mere tool to establish a globl government structure ruled over by elite bureaucrats and lining the pockets of a bogus money laundering "foundation.

Ah, actually no. I'm an English teacher living inJapan (who has filled out all appropriate documents to live here). Japan, like most countries, doesn't make phony excuses like a need for hotel staff or berry picking as an excuse to relinquish sound and sane borders. Nice try...yawn and eye roll.

...yeah, clearly my arguments were unconvincing -- because of the name I chose to comment under. Okay.

It's kind of weird when I often see fervent complaints that "a wall wouldn't work" or, "we don't need a wall." Somehow I don't get the impression, from such complaints, that the writer is concerned about cost. In most cases, I think that those who oppose the building of a wall know all to well that it may indeed be very effective. Enforce the current laws. America, AND AMERICAN CITIZENS first. Let the U.N. and George Soros direct their bogus compassion to to the foreign mobs. The Democrats will have to state their case and win election fairly and lawfully and stop the scheme of simply trying to import a new voting block. Legal immigration has benefited America enormously through its history. ILLEGAL immigration does nothing but increase criminal elements and drains public services and treasuries.

A person isn't necessarily lacking in historical knowledge to not care that parts of America's Southwest was "once part of Mexico." Most of the Earth was "once part of [somewhere else]." So what? Mexico couldn't even buy this territory now if it wanted to. It was America that built a multi-trillion dollar infrastructure and economic dynamo. If Mexico was a free constitutional republic instead of a corrupt one-party Banana Republic they could have done the same thing and then maybe people would be migrating in the other direction. As much a Democrats would like, Americans have no desire to "become Mexico...neither should Mexicans.

And there were "native Americans" before them. It's always funny to hear people whine about how a wall "won't work" as if they're concerned that America may waste their money. Do we really think you care about our financial decisions? No. Trump may win. The wall will go up, and the flood of people who have not planned legally to come to America will have to stay in their own country ( a country that -- clearly -- most of them love, so that isn't so bad now is it?).

'Guess you haven't been listening to Hillary's speeches or read the Democrat's party platform. Apparently 20 trillion dollars in debt isn't enough...we'll just tax the evil rich more...and, maybe the middle class too.

And, we need a President that respects the country's current citizens enough that he or she will enforce the current laws already "on the books." We don't need another president who will simply use the immigration issue to change demographics to the end of eliminating any opposition party (that is the purpose of the Democrat's position).

Most of these posts are just perpetual whines about "Racism!" Can't anyone on the left make a sober and legitimate argument as to why America, unlike almost every country in the world, should have open borders?

The University of Colorado. Where did you get yours?

Wow! My comments made to other videos have mysteriously come up here what’s up with that? For the record, I find the things said here disgusting. There’s absolutely no defense for it. But, I’m still an establishment-phobe. I look forward to seeing the comments made behind the scenes at antifa and black lives matter protests as well.
