KABC: Muslim American Woman Escorted Out by Police after Standing Up to Trump

A Muslim American woman showed a lot of spunk standing up in the middle of a boisterous rally for Donald Trump in South Carolina.

KABC reports 56-year-old Rose Hamid, wearing a t-shirt that read “salam, I come in peace” along with a yellow star that simply said “Muslim,” stood up in the crowd as they chanted “Trump, Trump, Trump.”

The Republican front runner was speaking about Syrian refugees and suggesting they were affiliated with Isis.

Hamid said nothing as she stood, but drew the gaze of many in the crowd. Alongside her was a Jewish man who was also wearing the yellow star similar to the one Jews were forced to wear during the holocaust. Police soon came to take the woman away.

People began booing Hamid.

“They just get riled up in the hate mongering and they don’t even know what they’re saying,” Hamid said. “I don’t think that even he believes in the rhetoric that he’s spewing. I think that he is saying that stuff to get attention and to get his numbers up.”
