How Trump Promotes Violence and the proper reaction to it.

In this Huffington Post article an argument is made: http://ift.tt/1UE3kfS

Quote:

The rise of Donald Trump has exposed the frightening underbelly of America’s foulest tendencies. Our racism, nativism, xenophobia, misogyny, Islamophobia, ableism, and propensity toward authoritarianism have been laid bare. Reactions from those who stand opposed to these manifestations of oppression have varied from calm condemnation and routine peaceful protests, to blockades of roads and borderline riotous outbursts, including sporadic violence in various cities. This isn’t a coincidence.

We cannot argue with this...

Let us not forget that his supporters are known liars as well: http://ift.tt/1UE2RKI

And yet...

There’s been an upswing in anti-Muslim hate crimes that correlates with his candidacy—including several offenders who cite him as their inspiration. Another of his supporters beat an unhoused Latino man. Yet another sucker punched a demonstrator at a rally and then, more alarmingly, went on to say, “The next time we see him, we might have to kill him.” Trump has not just flagrantly violated the typical boundaries of political discourse, his candidacy is linked to multiple instances of violence. It shouldn’t be a surprise that opposition to him has responded in kind. Yet, a lot of people seem shocked and appalled at this perfectly logical reaction. In the face of media, politicians, and GOP primary voters normalizing Trump as a presidential candidate—whatever your personal beliefs regarding violent resistance—there’s an inherent value in forestalling Trump’s normalization. Violent resistance accomplishes this. In spite of this, such resistance is apparently more offensive and unacceptable to societal norms and liberal sensibilities than the nastiness being resisted in the first place.

Now I am not sure sure that meeting violence with violence is helpful...but while he does deserve it Trump will turn it around and non-violence helped people like Gahndi and King Jr. better in the long run...
on another note the Daily Stormer talked about this article and ignroed the above saying...
"The Jew starts with the established narrative that the violence is Trump’s fault, then quickly switches it up to encouraging people to riot and attack Trump-supporters." Ignoring all the examples given...and the possibility that the Trumpettes struck first: http://ift.tt/1Y7Nxc1
So...again the violent response from protestors I don't like very much and it isn't a good idea as it would just further embolden the racists even if it was justified...but I am not sure...your thoughts?
