I hope these violent leftists realize how much they are hurting their cause
You realize the trump supporters caused the violence

That's completely false. I watched this unfold. If you don't support someone, don't go to their event. That's how this works.

I'm just posting the image without comment - it's already gone viral and is on the front page of reddit right now

If Trump is nominated, Cleveland 16 will be the Republican Chicago 68.

I was thinking the same thing.

It will be quite the thing if the RNC is physically intimidated into nominating Donald Trump by the presence of an armed and angry mob outside.

Sadly, whatever the Republican Party has become has shown that it's willing enough to nominate and support Trump even in the absence of duress or coercion.

That is true, sad as it is.

I know we've been joking about a Trump paramilitary force... but is this actually the point where we start seeing once come into being in response? Things are really getting too scary. It's how things got so bloody in Thailand-- protest movements hired armed "protection" and next thing you know dozens were dead. And this is assuming the New Black Panthers don't show up... I can imagine it now: Trump Open Carry League.

I'd like to say I'm shock, but Im not!  Black Lives Matter is a terrorist organization.

This will lead to suburban backlash. This is what I'm hearing all over the Internet.

My naïve hope is that over the next several months people will realize that political norms matter and that ignoring them or dismissing them as "political correctness" invites not just additional political dysfunction, but actual violence. Which, obviously, is particularly disturbing in a country in which certain civilian groups are extremely heavily armed.

Proud of the protesters for standing up against hate preaching.

Honestly, I'm disappointed they didn't burn Chicago down. It'd have helped our cause immensely and exposed them for what they are. Oh well.

I am sure, whenever your own house burns we all will have a nice party around the ruins.

You mean when the Haitians up the street from me go apesh*t and destroy Boynton? Ok. Their lives would get a lot worse than it is if they came into my neighborhood. We'd just rebuild and become symbols of this post-America America we live in.

There will not be an America to rebuild, as long as you are a part of it.

Unfortunately, this is just the beginning of the conflagration Donald Trump lit.

I love how a Ukrainian expat living in Mexico (or vice versa or whatever) is quite literally blaming an American for the fact that America is no longer America anymore.

Trump has been trying to bring more violence to politics for months, now he's finally succeeded. Doubtless he will continue to escalate until he's stopped.

Bernie supporters, how would you feel if thousands of Trump supporters showed up at a Bernie rally and were screaming and behaving like hooligans and threatening you and holding threatening signs and some were even getting violent?  How do you think the media would react and what would people be demanding from Trump?

Bernie was not responsible for this. His words didn't cause this friction. Trump's did. I condemn physical violence, unlike Trump when it comes to his protestors. Are you already forgetting about John Mcgraw? I was at Bernie's rally tonight. It was loving. It was peaceful. It was unifying. No hatred from Bernie at all tonight.

They have the right to protest the rally. Those Black Lives Matter women crashed his last Summer and while I don't like they did, protesting was something that they were entitled to do.

So Trump is responsible for violence by his people, but Bernie isn't responsible for violence by his people?  Even though Trump people violence is skirmishes with obnoxious lone wolf protesters who sneak into events, while Bernie people violence is thousands of people shutting down an area of Chicago, screaming, threatening, and starting dozens of fights?

Don't be so naïve.  We all know these protests didn't happen spontaneously, they were organized by leftist groups (saw some evidence of this earlier via tweets, can't find the link again) and we all know the Sanders campaign coordinates with these leftist groups to stir people up and aid his campaign.  There's a reason we didn't hear about a bunch of Hillary supporters at the rally.


Oh I know the protests were organized. I signed the petition to stop Trump from speaking last night, but I don't think Sanders knew about it. If Sanders wasn't at the rally I went to, I'd have protested myself. I can assure you I would've refrained from resorting to any physical violence, but I've had enough with that bully's antics.
