This is outrageous and is a black stain on Florida's Friendliest Hometown. Whether you like his views or not, he certainly has a right to protest, and to face physical violence in this manner is just frightening. He has also received threatening letters. What is the matter with these people?

The problem is that he isn't just protesting. He is purposely being very antagonistic with outrageous and absurd signs. He is encouraging confrontations. It would be fine if he or anyone else simply used signs to show who they support or even the "Dump Trump" kind of signs but when you put huge signs with extremely derogatory statements, you are asking for trouble.
