Donald Trump was discussing about the 9/11 attack and San Bernadino shooting when there was a sudden commotion. 

A man in a red turban unfurled a big white banner with the words 'Stop Hate' on it. Trum repeated the words "good bye-good bye" as soon as there was disruption. 

The crowd chanted "Trump" "Trump" "Trump" as the protesters were escorted out. 

Trump, who is currently the GOP front-runner, then pointed to the crowd, referring to the Sikh protester,

“He wasn’t wearing one of those hats was he? And he never will, and that’s OK because we got to do something folks because it’s not working.”
Two weeks ago, a 56 year old Muslim woman was removed from a Trump rally in South Carolina, after she silently stood up to protest weating a tee with "Salam, I come in peace" printed on it.
