Cal Poly Revokes Scholarship from Wrestler Filmed at Pro-Trump Rally Shouting Anti-Gay Slur: WATCH<\/b>
\n\"Bronson<\/p>\n

Cal Poly has revoked the scholarship of a wrestler who was captured shouting an anti-gay<\/a> slur at a pro-Trump counter-protest of the Families Belong Together march in Modesto, California on June 30.<\/p>\n

The wrestler, Bronson Harmon, was filmed carrying a Trump sign and gives the finger to Abdul Lasaing, who was filming the pro-Trump marchers. As Harmon passes, he flips the bird and says \u201cf**k you faggot.\u201d Harmon was marching with his father and a friend.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Wrote Lasaing in the text accompanying the video<\/a>: \u201cI and a group of people where already walking back to our vehicles after the #KeepingTheFamilesTogether march; when I heard a group of men<\/a> shouting and trying to scare us by saying #sendthemback and even yelled at someone nig**! I was so in chocked, so I automatically pulled out my phone to record, and see who was being so disrespectful! I was flipped off by #DeeAnnHarmon #BrandonHarnon from #Oakdalef or either my dark skin or my #WorldPeaceSign ?? Not sure but I was impressed by how these 3 men<\/a> were acting. The older gentleman had gloves on to I guess injured someone without leaving finger prints? Later on I heard that there was a police report about these men<\/a>, for beating up a 60 year old VETERAN!\u00a0This Earth needs more love and peace! We all have a different mind set; but we shall all learn how to respect each other. I strongly believe that we need more unity, love and respect for America! God bless my country and all of you!!\u00a0\"\"\"??\"<\/span><\/span>\"\"\"??\"<\/span><\/span>\"\"\"??\"<\/span><\/span>\"\"\"??\"<\/span><\/span>\"\"\"??\"<\/span><\/span>\"\"\"??\"\u00a0<\/span><\/span>#Modesto CA held a peaceful march today to #KeepFamiliesTogether and ofcorse; the typical #DonaldTrump hateful supporters had to come out and spread hate\"\"\"?\"<\/span><\/span>#MakeThemFamous #modestoca\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Cal Poly Athletic Director Don Oberhelman told the Tribune\u00a0<\/em><\/a>that Harmon\u2019s scholarship had been revoked three days after the video<\/a> surfaced.<\/p>\n

And shocker: Harmon, who was captured on another video<\/a> with a Trump 2020 sign yelling \u201csend them back,\u201d totally regrets it now.<\/p>\n

Harmon told the Tribune that he feels his freedom of speech was taken away<\/a>: \u201cSaying what I said is definitely not the right thing. I am supposed to be there to help the community, be the best person I can be and represent the college the best way I can\u2026I totally regret it.\u00a0I got caught up in the heat of the moment. I was there to peacefully protest the things that we believe and people were harassing us, spitting on us and calling us Nazis.\u201d<\/p>\n
