Cenk's rant re: the Boston thugs who beat up the homeless Latino man

Published on Aug 20, 2015

Two men in Boston have been arrested for urinating and beating up a homeless Latino man who they say were inspired to assault because of Donald Trump. The two guys are Scott and Steve Leader and when they were arrested they were also making threats to police officials, which is kind of interesting. When two white men make threats to police officials they just get thrown into a cell.

Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian (The Point) hosts of The Young Turks discuss. What other horrible acts do you think Donald Trump’s rhetoric might inspire? Tell us what you think in the comments.

1. Housing....

His rhetoric will start encouraging people not to rent homes to Latinos

2. I've been thinking a lot about

Dick Cheney lately. Ive wondered when he will trot out that hortible mouthpiece of a daughter, to Faux news again, to try and justify a war with Iran.

But maybe Liz could just explain homeless rolling to us.


Ive been mentally comparing and contrasting these two and I'm not sure who is the more dangerous.

3. This is sad and infuriating...

...but there is nothing new about it. Unfortunately homeless people have been the victims of being beaten and other horribly dehumanizing injustices for a very long time....and EVERY TIME it happens it is sad and infuriating no matter what the reason given by the people who committed the violence.

So if you truly care support your local food bank and shelters. The work done by these organizations is phenomenal and greatly under appreciated by the communities they serve.

4. This is called Republican Party Latino Outreach. So hows that working for 'ya Goppers?

Oh; yeah; Latinos; Mexicans, Women; they VOTE!

5. Cenk at his best outrage.

Of course! The GOP would take this tack.

6. Calling them "idiots" is missing the mark. They knew exactly what they were doing.
