RIGHT ON BROTHER!!!!!!!
I think must of us know his plans are baloney.
Of course know that he is the nominee he can drop this tough talk and pull out his actual plans.
I for one am looking forward to when he builds the wall and deports all the beaners.

>Ted Cruz, the insurgent Texan whose presidential campaign was fuelled by disdain for Washington, announced he was leaving the race on Tuesday night, removing the last major hurdle in Donald Trump's quest to become the Republican nominee for president.
>Senator Cruz's decision came after losing overwhelmingly to Mr Trump in the Indiana primary, all but ensuring that real estate mogul will claim his party's mantle at the Republican National Convention in July.
>The exit comes after a series of desperate moves to keep his candidacy afloat in recent weeks, including naming former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina as his running mate in a bizarre announcement where Senator Cruz spoke for 30 minutes and Fiorina sang to his young daughters.
>In his last day on the campaign trail, Senator Cruz unloaded on Mr Trump, calling the businessman a"pathological liar" and a "narcissist" who was proud of being a "serial philanderer." The attacks were reminiscent of the broadsides Senator Marco Rubio launched against Mr Trump in the waning days of his own presidential campaign — and a far cry from the lavish praise Senator Cruz heaped on Donald Trump for most of 2015, declaring, "I like Donald Trump."
>The fact that Senator Cruz remained one of the last candidates standing in a once-crowded field would have been viewed as improbable when he entered the race 14 months earlier. Senator Cruz, the first major candidate to enter the race, is a first-term senator best known for getting under the skin of his Senate colleagues and championing controversial tactics to block the implementation of the Affordable Care Act. He was painted as a long-shot underdog who was too religious and conservative to advance past the early nominating contests.
Well, looks like Trump is the Republican nominee now, let's talk about that.

A news helicopter caught New Hampshire and Massachusetts state police violently apprehending a suspect who led them through several towns in a high-speed chase.
The suspect was originally stopped for several outstanding warrants in Holden, MA, which lead to a pursuit that crossed into New Hampshire and ended in Nashua.
The NECN video shows the suspect exiting his vehicle, and laying on the ground. Moments later, a New Hampshire state trooper strikes the man in the head with a haymaker punch, and continues to punch the suspect in the head and back. Another officer also was shown to repeatedly punch the man in the head and spine. Five officers in total held the suspect down as the beating and arrest occurred, which was caught on a live news feed.

Here is some reading so you don't look like a 12 year old for your next post:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curiosity#Morbid_curiosity
SEATTLE -- Two Auburn parents caught starving and abusing their young children have been sentenced to 20-year prison terms.
Convicted by a King County jury in March, Christopher Sefton and Lori Lloyd on Thursday received exceptionally long prison sentences meant to match the exceptionally vicious abuses they perpetrated against Sefton's son.
By the time help arrived in March 2014, 6-year-old K. was battered and emaciated.
The boy had been feeding himself out of school trash cans. At home, Sefton and Lloyd were feeding him hot dog-and-cooking oil smoothies, forcing him to do calisthenics and denying him sleep.
Lloyd and Sefton were convicted of assault and criminal mistreatment following a jury trial. While those counts related to K. alone, prosecutors noted that the other children in the home - Lloyd's then-7-year-old daughter and the couple's young son - were mistreated as well.
King County Superior Court Judge James Cayce sentenced the pair to prison terms years beyond the usual range for their crimes.
Senior Deputy Prosecutor Cecelia Gregson said Sefton and Lloyd's mistreatment of K. was part of a deliberately cruel pattern of abuse perpetrated against a child who couldn't defend himself.
"Judge Cayce held that to give the standard range would be to ignore the jury's imposition of multiple aggravating factors and would not result in a fair or just sentence," Gregson said following Thursday's hearing. "He found that 20 years was warranted in this case because it was exceptional in every way."
K. and the other children have been placed in other homes since Sefton, 30, and Lloyd, 31 were arrested. The older children have been receiving counseling.
http://komonews.com/news/local/prison-for-parents-who-fed-hot-dog-smoothies-to-starving-boy-6/
During a two-month trial, Sefton and Lloyd claimed K. was hurting himself while arguing that the accounts he and Lloyd's daughter offered couldn't be trusted. Sefton tried to portray himself as a "proactive" and "engaged" parent, while Lloyd's attorney said she was doing her best.
Refuting those assertions were the photos taken at Seattle Children's hospital after K.'s rescue by Auburn police separated.
Tall for 6 but weighing little more than 50 pounds, the boy appeared to be wasting away. His joints and stomach appeared swollen as his body, deprived of nutrition, began to shut down.
At closing arguments, Gregson said Sefton started to lose control around October 2013.
In the five months that followed, K. lost pound after pound as school workers became increasingly concerned about his treatment at home. Gregson said dozens of calls to child protective services failed to get the boy the help he needed.
"People ask, 'How can someone abuse a child?'" Gregson told the jury in March. "I ask, 'How could all these good people sit by and do nothing?'"
The boy arrived at school with a bloody lip, a bruised ear, scratches. He pulled food out of school trash cans to feed himself, choking once on a discarded muffin. His teachers created a "share basket" so the boy could be fed at school.
School nurses began weighing him. Sefton objected and claimed he was being discriminated against because he was a man raising his child.
Lloyd recorded K.'s injuries on video. She and Sefton exchanged smug text messages about their treatment of the boy, which were later seized by the police. The malnourished child was required to do push-ups while wearing a backpack filled with canned food.
Sefton described his son as a "demon" when confronted by school workers. The boy's nurses and teachers knew a different child - they said he was gentle, kind and in desperate need of affection.
Sefton and Lloyd told school staff not to feed the boy because of imagined "dietary restrictions," and Sefton threatened to sue the school district if workers didn't stop feeding his son.
The day help finally arrived, K.'s face was bruised from a beating Sefton delivered because the boy wasn't tying his shoes properly, Gregson said. The boy was shaking uncontrollably.
K. was taken to the emergency room at Seattle Children's. His stomach was distended from malnutrition - he was starving to death.
The boy told investigators he was only allowed to eat blended shakes comprised of bread, carrots, water, hot dogs and oil. He was offered the disgusting concoctions twice a day.
"They were using food to torture him," Gregson said. "It has the added benefit of trying to kill him, but it was a very effective form of torture."
The jury, having been empaneled Jan. 17, returned its verdict March 15. Jurors convicted Lloyd and Sefton of first-degree assault of a child, second-degree assault of a child and first-degree criminal mistreatment.
Both defendants remain jailed. They are expected to be transferred to state prison in coming days.
Fuck 20 years. Shoot them both and push them in to a hole an be done with these wastes of life.

>At a campaign rally in Delaware three weeks ago, presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump chose to attack American outsourcing by affecting a cruel caricature of an Indian accent, to the delight of his supporters. Yet his apparent disdain for the people of the world’s second most populous nation doesn’t seem to faze a right-wing Indian group that is now praying — yes, literally praying — for Trump’s victory.
>A new video released by Reuters captures members of Hindu Sena, a Hindu nationalist political organization, holding a spiritual ritual in the streets of New Delhi, asking Hindu gods to carry the New York City real estate mogul to victory this November. To that end, they lit ritual fires and anointed Trump’s forehead (on a poster alongside statues of Hindu deities) with a tilaka, a Hindu spiritual marking.
>“Going by the statements of Donald Trump, we believe he will be the lone protector of mankind,” Vishnu Gupta, Hindu Sena’s president, told Reuters.
>It’s not difficult to figure out why right-wing Indians are supporting the Republican candidate from half a world away. Trump’s incendiary comments on Islamist extremists and Muslim immigrants echo the sentiments of India’s Hindu nationalist movement, the more radical factions of which have been linked to linked to lethal violence against the country’s Muslim minority. In March, Quartz illuminated the parallels between Trump’s jingoism and the politics of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, whose right-of-center Bharatiya Janata Party has given a new mainstream platform to Hindu nationalist fervor in the country.

He belongs to bania / marwari caste. Some of the nastiest and ugliest indians are the low caste bania or trader class. They are dark, ugly usually very short and fat. They originate from australian aboriginal types of niggers. They are the biggest crooks and thiefs and will try to rip off foriegn tourists. They are truly the niggers of india coz once they acquire some wealth (usually through corrupt means) they will try and buy white wives from russia or some other euro trash country.
Doesn't sound like he mocked the Indian accent at all lmao did those people even watch the video

What do you expect from animals?
During a "Managing Microaggressions" event last Monday at the University of Virginia, students spoke out against microaggressions like identifying as “American” and criticizing someone’s taste in food.
The event, which was hosted by the Queer Student Union, was described as an opportunity for students to tell “stories of microaggressions they have experienced in their lives and [frame] them inside of the larger forces of their respective worlds, such as identity, culture, and others.”
“I’m not gonna lie; when I see somebody who looks like a stereotypical frat brother, I get scared to share certain things.”
A Hispanic student from the School of Education began by declaring that “I refuse to take up [the] identity” of “American” because “this country has decided to take it upon itself to identify as an entire hemisphere,” which he called “the most blatant microaggression in the context of this country.”
Instead of American, the student said he identifies as Latinx, queer, socioeconomically disadvantaged, and from Southern California. Later, recounting the time he told his mother he was queer, he noted her response of “I love you. Do you need to speak to a counselor?” “as if though my sexuality’s…some mental health problem that I had to deal with.”
The Hispanic student also took offense when people criticized his food taste, saying “don’t insult something that I like just because you don’t….My taste, whether it’s my orientation or my food are mine….You’re insulting the taste of the people that I grew up with…an entire subculture…an entire people that you don’t even know exist.”
“Please don’t tell me you wear those together” was another microaggression, reportedly suffered by female Hispanic student Hannah Melissa Borja, when a friend saw Borja in cow skin boots and a poncho her family had passed down to her.
http://www.campusreform.org/?ID=7565
During her speech, Borja called out her “closest friend,” Logan, who was in the audience and allegedly guilty of perpetrating the latest microaggression against her, recalling that before she went to an interview with a Latino law firm employee, Logan told her to “remember to use your best Spanish and don’t speak with an accent.” When Borja said “I can’t help my accent,” Logan responded “you know what I meant; don’t eat your ‘r’s or your ‘s’es.”
Speaking to the event’s attendees, Borja said “I do know what he meant…don’t talk like Puerto Rican, don’t be the stereotypical, Puerto Rican girl who has no business being in the professional world. Don’t be you, go home.”
A female Muslim student in a hijab later claimed she had been told “no one’s going to be physically attracted to you; isn’t that the point of the headscarf?” and “how do we know you’re a girl? You’re probably bald under there.”
She also complained about two competing stereotypes of Muslims who wear the hijab, one in which they are “asexual, unfeminine, and prudish…the sexually uninterested veiled woman” and another “orientalist one” that has led to “privileged white men [who] think it’s okay to drunkenly grab me as I walk down the Corner and ask me what I’m hiding.”
Another speaker, Francesca Callicotte, said that if people don’t call out microaggressions, “the unintentional will become intentional and impulsive ignorance will become premeditated aggression.”
Some students had complaints that arguably went beyond “microaggressions.” A black woman described a relationship she had with a white man in which “the barrage of microaggressions began” when he called her “brown sugar” and referred to her as a “shiny token.” The relationship culminated in the man sometimes saying the n-word, “the white race is just superior, but you’re the exception,” and telling her he wanted an all-white America.
During the dialogue period, students were instructed to introduce themselves and their pronouns, “use ‘I’ statements,” and “follow proper turn-taking procedure (wait for 2 people to talk in between the times you speak and speak again).”
At Campus Reform’s table, one student noted that “a lot of older white men” speak to her in ways she deems “disrespectful.” Another said “I’m not gonna lie; when I see somebody who looks like a stereotypical frat brother, I get scared to share certain things.” A student also mentioned that she “loved” when the speakers talked about “correcting people” while still maintaining friendships.
When one student expressed discomfort with “the r-word,” or “retarded,” Campus Reform asked if she would be fine with it being used scientifically to refer to a slower growth process, to which the student said context mattered.
Another student almost referred to her older brother as “severely autistic” instead of “autistic,” but quickly corrected herself, saying “I’m still unlearning some things, too.” Regarding the r-word, she said “I just hate that word in general” and alluded to the US government’s replacement of the term “mental retardation” with “intellectual disability.”
Campus Reform also asked students how they felt about racist and sexist jokes and games like Cards Against Humanity. Some students thought jokes were alright if they “punched up” vs. “punched down.”
When Campus Reform brought up the Charlie Hebdo shooting and the question of what is and is not acceptable as satire, some students agreed with the magazine’s right to freedom of expression, but one said “if people are being degraded by these stereotypes and they’re uncomfortable with it, I think that’s enough reason to not use it and I’m just very uncomfortable with the tendency to immediately just start picking apart Islam.”
None of the students, however, could answer precisely who should be allowed to determine which jokes are off limits.
Reflecting on the growing hostility to PC culture, one student said “the person who’s usually calling people crybabies is usually coming from a place of privilege where they’ve never been attacked on anything and then as soon as they are, it’s ‘oh God, everyone’s being so horrible.’”
