As conservatives, we must be careful about letting incidents like this happen. Not only do they propagate illegal and immoral behavior, they also allow liberals to point and say that we are incapable of dealing with others peacefully. If McGraw had let the deputies escort this protestor off the premises, we probably wouldn’t even know Johnson’s name:
“‘He had no right to put his hands on me,’ Jones said in a telephone interview.
McGraw also was charged with disorderly conduct and communicating threats. Detectives added the latter charge after seeing video of McGraw saying he enjoyed hitting ‘that loudmouth’ and threatening next time ‘to kill him,’ the sheriff’s office said.
The office said it would conduct an internal investigation, adding that deputies accompanying Jones did not see the assault.
Sheriff Earl ‘Moose’ Butler called the attack cowardly.
‘Regardless of political affiliation, speech, race, national origin, color, gender, bad reputation, prior acts or political demonstration, no other citizen has the right to assault another person or to act in such a way as this defendant did,’ Butler said.
Asked about the incident during the Republican debate Thursday night, Trump said he did not condone violence but said that some protesters ‘are bad dudes.'”
Watch Fox coverage of the affair below:
Trump now says he will review the altercation and even provide financial assistance for the 78-year-old who is charged with assault:
Donald Trump says he’s “instructed my people” to explore the possibility of helping pay the legal bills for a 78-year-old man charged with assault at a Trump rally.
Authorities have said John Franklin McGraw of Linden, North Carolina, was charged after he was caught on video hitting a man deputies were escorting at a Trump rally last Wednesday in Fayetteville.
Trump tells NBC’s “Meet the Press” that McGraw “got carried away” and “maybe he doesn’t like seeing what’s happening to the country.”
Trump was asked if it’s possible he could help McGraw with legal fees, if McGraw needed it.
Trump says: “I’ve actually instructed my people to look into it, yes.”
