NORMAN, Okla. – Saturday evening, as Donald Trump dined with the Okie elite on catered Benvenuti’s and drunken college football fans watched their beloved team get crushed by Ohio State, Norman activists took to Facebook to make charges against the University of Oklahoma’s Phi Delta Theta chapter, claiming that the fraternity intimidated and harassed peaceful Native American protesters.

Trump's mother immigrated to the U.S. from Scotland.
Two of Trump's 3 wives became U.S. citizens only when they married him.
And, these FRAT BOYS (vs. Fraternity Gentlemen) are harassing the specific group that is indigenous to the U.S.?
Hmmmm.

(Note: Native Oklahoman. Mom recently told me my great-grandmother might have been 100% Native American. I could have been receiving the BIA reparations all this time. Just another thing I'm going to sue my mom for. My 100% genetic brother is actually now 100% blood Native American. WTH? Blood transfusion from his Native American bone marrow transplant donor when he had leukemia. Usually, it's not a match when it's different ethnic backgrounds, but guess we know now.)

Amazing how some bad mouth immigrants when Native Americans were so called "Red Men" today!

Today, they are treated like second class citizens who are wards of The American Govt.

Funny, when the Italians came to these shores they opened eating places and became the MOB! The Irish showed up, and when could not get jobs, they became COP's!

Those before them, The French, Spanish, and finally The British were kicked out if they did not agree with The Americans who said "We are going to have our own Country"!

So today, the African Americans are rebeling because of stupidity from long passed reasons, and now of course The Musilims while not all are bad, there are many who hate the infidels of America.

I try not to cast stones, but some do make it damn hard!

What upsets me most are "Fraternity Men" who should have more common sense and brains to not act so DAMN STUPID! These Idiots are the bane of any good name and good will that we do everyday and every year. For shame!!!! If you were in My Fraternity and Chapter, I would do everything in my power to get you kicked out!

Seriously, what does this article really have to do with Trump? Does the author think that only something with a political theme will get read?

ETA: I am trying so hard to stay away from this year's horrifying election, and resent having it thrown into my face willy-nilly!

The protest was occurring because there was a Trump fundraiser happening across the street. Lots of high profile Oklahoma politicians, billionaires, etc.

Seriously. I know this is way off topic, but when I see folks going after Elizabeth Warren for claiming native status, I think you probably have to be from here to understand that just about everyone's family lore includes that they are of native descent.

The protesters were on the private property of the brothers of Phi Delta Theta. Don't drag other people into your protests and don't bring your kids to stand out in the hot sun and hold signs. Problem solved! These guys had every right to be angry that protesters took to their property and they are now getting labeled as racists and douche "frat boys" by the protesters and media.
