    Mexican Flags Raised in Protest of Donald Trump's Visit to Scotland

    Mexican Flags Raised in Protest of Donald Trump's Visit to Scotland

    At least two Mexican flags have popped up near one of Donald Trump’s golf courses in Scotland, a few days before a scheduled visit by the presumptive Republican presidential nominee.

    Two residents in Aberdeenshire say they raised the flags "in sign of solidarity with the people of Mexico."

    "We did this to coincide with his visit to show solidarity with the Mexican people and many other groups that Donald Trump has lied to and intimidated, because we've experienced it," David Milne told ABC News.

    Trump has called for building a wall at the U.S.-Mexican border and is perceived by some to be anti-Mexican, which he has denied.

    Milne, who owns property overlooking the course, is part of Tripping Up Trump, an advocacy group that has campaigned against Trump's golf course.

    "It was the most obvious symbol we found to illustrate our point," Milne said of the Mexican flag.

    Milne says Trump has tried unsuccessfully to force some locals like him to sell their property. "For the past ten years, we've had power lines cut off, boundary-line arguments, ongoing harassment by security guards, among other things," he added.

    But Sarah Malone, the executive vice president of Trump's Scottish company, has denied trying to intimidate people into selling.

    "I would categorically dispute any claims that we have purposely made life difficult for the neighbors or done things that were wrong," she told NPR earlier this year. "We simply haven't."

    Meanwhile, another Mexican flag was reportedly raised by resident Michael Forbes, who owns land near the golf course and also campaigned against it.

    Forbes could not immediately be reached for comment.

    Trump has two golf courses in Scotland and one in Ireland. The one in Aberdeenshire -- Trump International Golf Links -- opened in 2012 after lengthy legal battles.

    Trump, who has defended the integrity of his golf courses, is expected in Scotland Friday. He is scheduled to attend the reopening of his Turnberry course in Ayrshire and visit the Aberdeenshire course Saturday.

    Clearly the whole thing was staged by illegal SJW La Razas.

    ...Hundreds of activists from all over Britain are planning to stage a raucous protest against the tycoon's controversial policies when he visits his Turnberry golf resort in Ayrshire.

    His campaign has been marred by clashes between protesters and members of Mr Trump's private security force, who have been filming protesters and removing any "offensive" signs or banners.

    Ian Yexley, chairman of the Specialist Services Section of the British Security Industry Association, said they would have to abandon such heavy-handed tactics - or face arrest themselves.

    He said: "It's pretty different here, the way we operate it's got to be kid gloves with everything.

    “Everyone knows their rights and they could come up against problems if they act in that way.

    "If they take signs off people it could be put down as theft, criminal damage or assault.

    ...One activist writing on Facebook predicted "trouble ahead", while another woman wrote: "Oh I'm coming ya beauty got the day aff..... watch out trump ya troll headed warmonger [I'm] coming after u! See yi all there!"

    Go Forward With Courage

    When you are in doubt, be still, and wait;
    when doubt no longer exists for you, then go forward with courage.
    So long as mists envelop you, be still;
    be still until the sunlight pours through and dispels the mists
    -- as it surely will.
    Then act with courage.

    Donald Trump defended his frequent use of glamorous – and available – Trump properties for campaign events, noting that federal campaign rules require him to charge fair rent for their use – as he touted his 'spectacular' new golf course in Scotland before a bevy of international media.

    'Well I do use my properties. Number one, I have the best properties, and you can say that,' Trump told a reporter who counted nine different times Trump has held campaign events at one of his properties.

    'A lot of the press has said whether you like him or not, there's no properties like that. I mean, I have the best properties, and you don't get to see that otherwise,' Trump explained.

    'But I have the best properties. And the other thing is, Why should you use somebody else's properties? Number one, they're not as good. And number two, it's one of those things.'
