Muslim woman ejected from Trump rally

[Diggy]

WASHINGTON: A Muslim woman was kicked out of a Donald Trump presidential campaign rally after staging a silent protest against the Republican frontrunner, who has called for a ban on Muslims entering the US.

Television footage from the event in South Carolina shows the woman, named as Rose Hamid, a 56-year-old flight attendant, wearing a head scarf and loose fitting green shirt reading “Salam. I come in peace.” She stood in silence looking at the podium as the rest of the crowd sat.

Later, she was escorted out as Trump supporters wave placards bearing his name in her face and chant for him.

Hamid said one supporter of the billionaire real-estate mogul bawled at her: “You have a bomb, you have a bomb”. “The ugliness really came out fast and that’s really scary,” Hamid told CNN after Friday night’s rally.

nothing brave , she knew at max she would be asked to leave , US is no saudi arabia or pakistan but maybe she had good intentions.

Since I would not dare to do what she did.

meh, they're at less than 1% or something of the US population, Trump can and will get away with it politically.

She was accused of carrying a bomb. She could have been shot

LoL , every muslim at some point in US is asked if he is carrying a bomb , thats more of a taunt than an accusation.

While he was running for President, John McCain referred to all Vietnamese people as "gooks" and refused to apologize. But no one cared.

If he said the n-word on the other hand....

Well personally for me irregardless if she is a Muslim or not, she has to be out of her mind if she votes for Trumpet errrr Trump.

@gambit , @jhungary , @Providence , @Oldman1 , @SHK who will you guys vote for?

Imagine the scenario, in which Trump become POTUS,i mean he is still a serious candidate.

Somebody should do a survey of Indian community/Lobby about their views on upcoming election.

I know most of them are BJP supporter at Home and rest Apptards.

Why ? was there a precedent that crowd became violent during a presidential rally and an innocent caught a beating ? It never happened before ! So stfu ! if you wouldn't dare do that is because you are a tamed pussy. In democracy like US people protest all the time.

If I go to liverpool and just shout in the middle of downtown that I love Manchester United, I can be 100% sure that I would be mobbed. Doesn't mean people in liverpool are racists or want to seek a independent country exclusive of manchester united !

Well personally for me irregardless if she is a Muslim or not, she has to be out of her mind if she votes for Trumpet errrr Trump.

@gambit , @jhungary , @Providence , @Oldman1 , @SHK who will you guys vote for?

I wouldn't reveal my choice on a public forum but I would definitely vote in both the primaries.

Just strange that that Citizen is not allowed to attend an open speech event, where she got a seat long time before event and waited for the event. With out any verbal protest is removed from the event as if she is not a citizen

I could understand people who shout or yell , and keep yelling they are removed but sorta really weird to see this happen

I understand people who come in numbers 4-5 or 7 people who come with soul purpose of heckling and disruption

But to eject someone , and the crowd turn into frenzic yellers at her ? Just ........not ordinary

I say that because I am used to seeing people be quite respectful to Muslim women at food courts , or banks or at work etc

Something like this I would may be understand seeing in Saudia or may be even Iran if a women is kicked out for her wordrobe
