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?
Everyone has a right to protest No one has the right to riot and cause damage and physical harm. This is the problem NOW. And for a while ... to be completely honest.
It does not matter what side, what color, as humans in America: we have the right to protest without damage and harm to others - period.
