Never though I would see this in the United States. [View all]

To me it looks like Trump's supporters have decided to eliminate people who have criticized or opposed him. I wonder how long it will be before they decide to burn a neighbors home or even kill him or her because they spoke ill of Trump. This may sound paranoid but think about it. Many of his supporters are as radical as the Islamic terrorists we are supposed to fear. The daily occurrence of harassment, threats and assaults by Trump supporters is escalating. Trump seems to encourage the worst in people. These people feel they have his blessing and he has given them the right to behave in a way that was denounced by civilized people long ago.
