Trump orders Secret Service to remove black students from rally

Donald Trump ordered Secret Service agents to remove a number of black students from his Georgia rally on Monday evening, according to The Des Moines Register.
Before Trump spoke in Valdosta, Ga., about 30 black students who were quietly standing on the top of the bleachers were told to leave the GOP front-runner’s event.
Those students complied and were escorted by the Secret Service outside, where they were told they needed to vacate the area of the rally.
“We didn’t plan to do anything,” said Tahjila Davis, a 19-year-old Valdosta State University student who was removed. “They said, 'This is Trump’s property; it’s a private event.' But I paid my tuition to be here.”
Earlier Monday, black students at a Trump rally in Virginia were removed by Secret Service after chanting, “No more hate! No more hate! Let's be equal, let's be great!"
The removal of the students comes as Trump faces a firestorm for not disavowing former Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke’s support during a Sunday interview on CNN. Trump blamed a faulty earpiece for misunderstanding the question and said he’s previously repudiated the support.
At another Trump campaign event Monday, a
photographer was slammed into a table by a security officer.

We agreed to meet for dinner at a leading hotel in London.  After a good meeting, we started to walk out of the restaurant when he suddenly collapsed in the lobby. There was total pandemonium as they rushed to get medical assistance. Being London, an ambulance arrived in minutes. I jumped in the back with him as paramedics wrestled to keep him alive. He had had a heart attack and had to have triple bypass heart surgery. Sadly he died a few weeks later. He hadn't been sick and his sudden death surprised everyone. And yet as I reflected on it, and later discussed it with a doctor friend who knew him, I realized he was very laid back about his health despite having a hectic business life. Even during our dinner...
