Gael Garcia Bernal accuses Donald Trump of hate speech

Mexican actor Gael Garcia Bernal has accused U.S. presidential hopeful Donald Trump of “hate discourse”, warning that his words could have violent consequences.
During the tycoon’s bid to become the Republican Party’s candidate for the U.S presidential election in 2016, he has courted controversy with his remarks about groups including Mexicans and Muslims.
The Motorcycle Diaries star was particularly offended by comments Trump made as he launched his presidential bid in June (15), when he referred to Mexican immigrants to America as rapists and drug pushers, and he fears that Trump’s inflammatory statements will lead to violence.
“He called Mexicans rapists and drug dealers. How closed-minded and f**king ignorant is that?” Bernal tells Britain’s Guardian newspaper. “At first, you don’t listen, but then it reaches a point where you go, OK, now he’s created exactly what he maybe wanted to, which is that people are angry.
“I’m upset. I’m upset if I listen to anybody talk like that. We started to give Donald Trump so much space, and we started to validate his opinion, as if it’s like, ‘You know, it’s a valid opinion.’ No, it’s not valid. It’s hate discourse, and what follows next is genocide or civil war. I mean, that’s how it begins.”
