What's racist about wanting people to speak English?

he went beyond "wanting" them to speak English.

He rose hell over them speaking Spanish....All the while being too stupid to know there is no national language in the United States.

I guess you missed the video of him railing against Jews surrounded by MAGA supporters in the video which was in the link in the OP.

Serious question: what does the fact that he is ‘pro trump’ have to do with the story?

Next headline should read:

“Local man, yankee fan stops attempted armed robbery”... it has nothing to do with the incident

Ok so again, Trump has nothing to do with it...

If I shoot someone while wearing a MAGA hat, am I a murderer because I support Trump? Or is that just what I happened to believe independent of my status as a murderer?

The guy is a racist dumbass. The guy likely voted for Trump. There's no correlation. They are independent statements.

So someone that likes Trump did something bad

Isn't Schlossberg a Jewish surname?

I'm always perplexed by people like this guy. I get that there are "levels" of racism in people but how do you earn a law degree and live and practice in New York City, of all places, with that much frothy racism pouring out?

Did he beat the urges down for a while and finally snap?

I think the part where he assumed they were undocumented and on welfare was a pretty dead giveaway. Blatant, actually.

Trump isn't even mentioned in the article, frickwad.

Just like football didn't exist before 1990 to Florida fans...racism didn't exist before Trump for some people.

Newsflash...both were around long before that.

No joke. It ain't because of Trump. It's because this guy needs to go see a damn therapist. It's not like the guy just magically turned into this person once Trump was elected.
