The Liberals acting like goons is legit.

Either that or paid media provocateurs are stirring shit up on both sides to make us accept violence as part of the normal political discourse.

That's because Republicans prefer not to attack when they're outnumbered. They're more the follow a guy onto a deserted street and dogpile him when he's alone kinda people.

Jesus Zed, don't you ever take your troll hat off to wash it? You don't see this at anyone's rallies regardless of their party, just Trump.

This is not a right vs left thing at all. This is all about Trump and the fact he says a lot of shit that pisses people off, especially black people. Trump has made a point of calling out protesters and having his bouncers haul their asses out, so is it really that surprising the decorum at his rallies is just like a night club a 2:45 am?

Police officer: Trump protesters were ‘the most hateful, evil people I’ve ever seen’

Protesters at recent Donald Trump campaign rallies have made almost as much news as the presidential candidate himself — getting sucker-punched, landing sucker punches, stopping traffic, stopping the rallies, claiming they were banned from the events.

Brandon Tatum, an officer in the Tucson Police Department, went to a Trump rally on Saturday as a civilian to see what was going on. In a subsequent video, he said he thought there was going to be “a full-fledged riot” at the event — but not because of Trump’s supporters.

The protesters were the problem, Tatum said.

“These people were acting so outrageous,” he said in the video, which went viral after it was uploaded to Facebook. “You were just thinking that somebody was going to lose their temper and there was going to be a full brawl.”

Tatum said he went to the rally at the Tucson Arena dressed in civilian clothes — a black shirt and khakis — to hear what Trump had to say.

The officer first met some peaceful protesters and stopped to “see their point of view.”

But at the door, he said, protesters were “verbally violent” — shouting “black lives matter,” holding up their middle fingers and screaming “f— Donald Trump.”

“I could not believe what I saw,” said Tatum, who is African American.

Someone in the crowd was wearing a Ku Klux Klan hood, Tatum said, and people were “cussing and screaming” and tackling one another to the ground.

A mother was covering her child’s ears, said Tatum, a former spokesman for the police department who is now a patrol officer. (A Tuscon police dispatcher confirmed Tatum’s employment with the department.)

“People were directly yelling at me as if I’m a criminal, and all I’m trying to do is just hear what the man has to say,” Tatum said in the video.

He added: “I thought I was going to have to punch a couple of people in self-defense.”

On Saturday morning, protesters blocked traffic leading to a Trump rally near Phoenix — first with pickup trucks toting banners that read “Comb Over Racism: Dump Trump” and “Shut Down Trump,” and then on foot.

Some carried signs that said “Love Trumps Hate” and “Stand Against Racism.” One homemade sign read: “Combat White Supremacy.”

Hours later, protesters in Tucson formed a human wall in front of the entrance to a second rally site, chanting, “Shut it down!”

Inside, a man sucker-punched and stomped on a protester being escorted out by police.

The protester’s friend, who was also being escorted out, was wearing a Ku Klux Klan hood.

Trump told ABC News on Sunday that the Klan costume enraged the assailant, who was black.

“Frankly, that was a, you know, it was a tough thing to watch. And I watched it,” Trump said on ABC’s “This Week.”

“But why would a protester walk into a room with a Ku Klux Klan outfit on?”

Tatum, the police officer, said on Facebook that authorities later found that “the protester that was punched did not provoke the other male,” adding: “I don’t need to state the obvious regarding my stance on assault.”

Tatum said that after attending the rally he found no issue with Trump — only with the protesters causing problems.

“I gained a lot of respect for Donald Trump,” Tatum said. “I think that if you want to know the truth about stuff, you got to examine it, you got to physically show up. You show up to events and you’ll get a perspective of what’s really going on and you won’t have to listen to what anybody else says.”

Tatum said Trump had rented out the venue and, therefore, had the legal right to remove people from the event.

It was the violent protesters who were violating people’s constitutional rights to freedom of speech and assembly, he said.

“I’m a police officer, and I have been through a lot of dramatic situations,” he said in his video, “and I have to be honest, I felt very uncomfortable there.”

As The Washington Post’s Jose A. DelReal reported, Trump indicated Sunday that his campaign manager, Corey Lewandowski, behaved appropriately while forcefully engaging with a protester at the rally in Tucson.

“I will give him credit, spirited,” Trump, the GOP presidential front-runner, told ABC when asked about Lewandowski being in the crowd. “I give him credit for having spirit. He wanted them to take down those horrible profanity-laced signs.”

As DelReal wrote, Trump has faced harsh criticism from detractors, who say he has set a tone that encourages violence at his campaign rallies. The front-runner strongly denies doing so. But violence has become a regular feature of Trump campaign events, culminating in a tense situation in Chicago involving brawls after one such event was canceled because of security concerns.

Trump has spoken dismissively about the violence at his events and has denied responsibility. He also has frequently winked at the incidents, saying at one event last month that he wanted to “punch a protester in the face” and telling supporters at other times that he would pay their legal bills if they got involved in physical altercations with demonstrators.

“Security at the arena, the police were a little bit lax,” Trump said Sunday. “And they had signs up in that area that were horrendous, that I cannot say what they said on the sign. But the ultimate word — and it was all over the camera — and, frankly, the television cameras can’t take it and they can’t do anything about it.”

In a tweet, Tucson’s police chief praised his department’s efforts over Trump’s Saturday rally.

Paid protesters - that's good politics there.

ANTI-TRUMP PROTESTERS Admit Answering Craigslist Ad and Getting Paid to Protest Trump

On Saturday hundreds of far left activists held a march-rally at the Trump Tower in New York City.

Several of the anti-Trump protesters admitted they answered an ad on Craigslist and were getting paid to protest Trump.
The Daily Caller reported:

The Establishment on both the left and the right, who want to disenfranchise the millions of Republican voters who support Donald Trump, have blamed the staged riots near Trump rallies on Trump or on Bernie Sanders. That’s like blaming the Russians for the Reichstag Fire. Bernie has little to do with these manufactured protests. This is a Clinton operation, a faux protest.

False flag operations have long been common in politics, but these riots are poisonous to the electorate, intentionally designed to turn violent and stifle free speech.

This free speech-busting goon squad operation is directed by supporters of Hillary Clinton. It is paid for mostly by George Soros and MoveOn.org and pushed by David Brock at Media Matters for America. It’s also funded by reclusive billionaire Jonathan Lewis, who was identified by the Miami New Times as a “mystery man.” He inherited roughly a billion dollars from his father Peter Lewis (founder of Progressive Insurance Company).

A march and demonstration against Trump at Trump Tower essentially fizzled Saturday when only 500 “protesters” of the promised 5000 showed up. Infiltrating the crowd, I learned most were from MoveOn or the Occupy movement. Soap was definitely in short supply in this crowd. Several admitted answering a Craig’s list ad paying $16.00 an hour for protesters.

Hillary understands that Trump would lose the votes of certain establishment Republicans if he were the nominee. On the other hand, it doesn’t matter, because of his crossover outreach. In Michigan, Democrats and independents who have lost their jobs because of disastrous globalist trade deals like NAFTA are lining up to vote for Donald.

Donald Trump protesters block road to Arizona campaign rally, demonstrate in New York

Demonstrators protesting Republican presidential contender Donald Trump took to the streets across the U.S. Saturday, with one incident temporarily shutting down a highway leading to a campaign rally for the candidate near Phoenix, Ariz.

Footage of the demonstration in Arizona showed a group of protesters with cars blocking forward traffic, holding signs that read: "Dump Trump" and "Shut Down Trump."

Maricopa County Sheriff Deputy Joaquin Enriquez said officers asked protesters to move and were prepared to forcibly remove them if they didn't comply.

Three people were arrested, the county office said.

Vehicles started moving again shortly after 2 p.m. local time, with officers remaining on both sides of the road to ensure the crowd of some two dozen protesters was dispersing.

Later at a rally in Tucson, Ariz., Trump said the protests were "disgraceful," and thanked police.

"They arrested three people and everybody else left… They left!" Trump said to roaring cheers from the audience.

"I love our police, but we should do a little bit more of that, you'd have a lot less protesters, you'd have a lot less agitators," said Trump.

The disruption occurred well after large crowds lined up to get into the Fountain Hills rally, where Trump was scheduled to speak alongside Joe Arpaio, an Arizona sheriff and ally.

Trump and Arpaio have formed a political alliance based on their tough talk on immigration in recent months, and the brash billionaire hopes Arizona can serve as a model on how he could win in November.

Trump rallies are notoriously rambunctious and often face interruptions from protesters in the audience.

A recent campaign rally in Chicago was cancelled following heated and sometimes physical clashes between protesters and supporters before Trump had even taken the stage

Hundreds protest in New York City

Several hundred demonstrators in New York City gathered Saturday to protest Trump amid heavy police presence.

Demonstrators chanted, "Donald Trump, go away, racist, sexist, anti-gay," in Manhattan's Columbus Circle, across from Central Park, before marching to Trump Tower, the Fifth Avenue skyscraper where Trump lives.

Then they marched back to Columbus Circle for a rally.

The crowd of mostly young people chanted and carried placards denouncing the Republican presidential hopeful. Some of them said police used pepper spray on them as they left the park and started marching.

One sign read, "Love Trumps Hate." Another read, "Will trade 1 Donald Trump for 25,000 refugees."

The protest was largely peaceful though there was one tense moment when some protesters tried to break through a police barricade.

Police were seen taking at least one person into custody, but a spokesman for the New York Police Department could not immediately confirm whether any arrests were made or whether pepper spray was used.

Various groups including immigrants' rights activists and socialists organized the protest.

Trump is by far the lesser evil. Cruz is really Damian Thorn.
