"I have a particular relationship to bullies. When I was a kid and a very short one at that older boys used to threaten me, and sometimes beat me up. Occasionally I was protected from the bullies by kinder older boys, like Mickey Schwerner. Years later, in the summer of 1964, Mickey was trying to register voters in Mississippi when he and two other civil rights workers, Andrew Goodman and James Earl Chaney, were abducted, tortured, murdered, and buried in an earthen dam by members of the local White Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, the Neshoba County Sheriff's Office, and the Philadelphia, Mississippi Police Department.
When I heard that the young man who had protected me from my bullies had himself been killed by truly monstrous bullies, my life forever changed.
Donald Trump is a bully whos stirring up other bullies to rage against Latinos, blacks, Muslims, and other convenient scapegoats channeling the fears and resentments of the white working class into hatefulness and violence. He deserves to be condemned by every decent American."

He should be interviewed in front of bigger audience. This needs to be heard.
