Father and son spew hate at CA immigration rally; after video goes viral, son loses scholarship

A young Trump supporter from central California has lost his wrestling scholarship after being caught happily spewing hate on camera, alongside his father and a friend. On June 30, Bronson Harmon, 18, pictured above, showed up as counterprotesters to the Modesto #FamilesBelongTogether rally with his father, Todd, and an unnamed friend. After the event ended, an attendee encountered the screaming father-son-friend trio, and whipped out his phone.

Abdul Lasaing, who recorded the video, said he heard the men shouting as they approached so he pulled out his cell phone.

“I not once said anything to these guys, I was just walking,” Lasaing told The Tribune on Wednesday. “I’m not sure if I was disrespected for my skin color or my “World Peace” sign. I was shocked.”

Lasaing said he was scared because one of the men, Todd Harmon, was wearing gloves and looked like he was there to fight.

Just as the video begins, Papa Todd can be heard shrieking “Send their asses back!” Apparently unwilling to disappoint his father, the younger Harmon, who knows he’s being filmed, shouts “Fuck you, faggot!” at Lasaing. Bronson then flips him the bird, while a still-unnamed friend smiles for the camera.

Now the father needs to lose his job and then they'll have time to rethink the benefits of racism in the 21st century.

1. Racist behavior must not be rewarded

If you want to act like a racist asshole in public, prepare to be identified by the public.

2. Ah, life in the era of tRump*.

[PatSeg]

3. One of the advantages

of living in a social media world. People can be exposed and shamed in a short period of time.

[magicarpet]

5. Toxic masculinity - handed down from father to son.

The alpha male is back.... In your face, proud and public, trDump brings out the best society has to offer.

8. Aw, poor baby. I hope your dad loses his job, so you can spend more quality time together.

[Initech]

11. I really don't care. Do U?

[blueseas]

26. +100

[Ilsa]

13. Yeah, typical. He attacks people but claims he is the victim.

He needs to learn right now that dickheads like him and his dad are not acceptable.

[mikeysnot]

15. fox news has trained them to respond that way

their "beliefs" are under attack and you are a fascist for calling them on their shit.

[marble falls]

17. Truth and facts are a positive defense to a charge of slander ...

one thing the snowflake can do is lock everybody who hurt his feelings by calling him a nazi out of the 4chan nazi chat room he belongs to. That'll teach them.

They talk about the sacrfices made by others for our freedoms but he can't stand up for those same rights by acting a grownup and sacrificing his scholarship for his principles without whining.

If he were Nathan Hale, his lasts words would be, "but, but, but, they called me a nazi!"

12. actions and words have consequences--a fact these haters have not yet figured out.

time to start wearing my spike heels again.

14. Thank you Tara

for sharing this. I am over the shock of discovery that many of my fellow Americans are bigots, have always been bigots and are enjoying the permission to display this un-American behavior granted my that man in our Oval Office and many Republican leaders.

[marble falls]

16. He used his free speech to make unprotected speech. The university used their free ...

speech to check him on his freely made unprotected speech.

Why is it right wingers who try to defend themselves with free speech protection confuse unprotected speech with free speech? He successfully made his free speech. No one stopped him before he made it or while he was making it - it was freely made.

Too bad he wasted his First Amendment freedom making hate speech which while freely made was not protected.

[ouija]

18. Freedom of Speech

His right was not broken, he had the freedom to say what he wanted and he did. The University has a right to terminate a scholarship for free speech they do not agree with and they did. Wecolme to life my man where being a jackass has consequences.

[marble falls]

19. Why is that so hard for them to understand? They just want permission to engage in ...

uncivil behavior.

[bdamomma]

25. this gets me sick

and they think we are the uncivil ones.

[Honeycombe8]

20. Disgusting people. Who does that? Why? Disgusting. nt

[SWBTATTReg]

21. Serves the kid right...there's no place for hate speech and people are ...

telling him that. Too bad kid won't listen either, and will go around bitching about how badly the world treated him when he's solely the case of all of it.

People are getting fed up w/ this kind of speech and nonsense (the hate)...

[calimary]

22. Maybe they can find a good thug school and the kid can apply for a scholarship there.

I'm sure they'd welcome him as an ideal candidate.

On edit - perhaps there's a graduate-level class in "How Bullies Can Recast Themselves as Victims"!

[rusty fender]

23. No worries.

I’m sure that Hannity will pay for Bronson’s tuition. Afterall, the right-wing blowhards always put their money where their mouths are

[WhiteTara]

27. I thought the orange blob said he'd pay

for their bad behavior.

[rusty fender]

29. He did say that, but

because the Moscow Moron lies about everything and never keeps his promises, even the deplorables can’t rely on him

[bdamomma]

24. hate crimes

[Cha]

28. Lost his scholarship and he knew he

was being filmed.

Bet he was shocked! That is Just Desserts.

[WhiteTara]

30. he only cared when the "pc police" ruined his life.

He won't take responsibility, I'm sure.
