In the back of the auditorium, a chant began in the crowd: 16 shots, referencing the number of times LaQuan McDonald was infamously shot and killed by a Chicago police officer.
As the crowd chanted, another group wearing white t-shirts with the words Muslims United Against Trump were escorted from the arena.
A young UIC student filming the scene in the crowd told The Daily Beast that there was a plan to leap the barrier in the back and rush the stage as soon as Trump got there. F*ck CPD, the crowd chanted with the abbreviation for the Chicago Police Department.
A voice over the loudspeaker warned, please dont harm the protesters.
One middle-aged black man in a hoodie in the audience held up a torn Trump sign, yelling to anyone who would hear F*ck Trump.
Its a Friday, go do something, a Trump supporter, wearing an All Lives Matter shirt shot back.
Youre a c*cks*cker for a fascist, a young man in a hoodie, who identified himself as Mexican, said.

Another brain dead DU troll .
Go away low life .
Yep Trump played this one like a violin. It should translate into a lot of votes on Tues. As an added bonus the three amigos fresh off a strategy meeting with Yeh Bush blamed Trump for the protest. Its all good. :-)
That's just idiotic.
/Again, they should just wall off Chicago. Unsalvageable./
Perhaps you are correct...but,
Let us try cutting off funds to “sanctuary cities” that protect illegal aliens....ghost towns don’t
have as many riots, and gun crimes.
Worth a try.
Trump cheats protestors from planned activist set up to create bad press at his rally! Well done, Mr. Trump!
I've said that exact same thing (almost word for word...) since moving to Illinois from Iowa back in 1977.
And I commute to work in that sh*thole every day.
Thank God for conceal/carry!

Cop haters and illegals=Dem base.
Event cancelled. It’s called WISDOM.
It’s time for the rest of Illinois to secede from the state. Most of the country thinks Chicago IS Illinois anyway. Who in their right mind would want to travel there anymore?
Heh, Jim, I was just thinking when I opened the thread that if Kurt Russell was just a little bit younger, he could make "Escape from Chicago".... and they wouldn't even have to make it set in some dystopian future, but in the actual Chicago of today.
I don't care a fig who did or didn't advise him to cancel, makes no difference...Mr. Trump MADE THE SELFLESS, FINAL AND THE CORRECT DECISION TO ABORT THE MISSION based on evidence at hand and his own sound instinct.

Exactly! It’s a venerable old anarchist’s gambit. Escalate violence at a “peaceful” demonstration, until you get a reaction from the authorities (or, in this case, the target); then scream “Fascism!”. The objective being to get the masses (lumpen proletariat, low-info voters, etc.) to condemn the target of the violent demonstration for violence. How many more centuries, before the masses catch on?
I agree. We have reached a point where there must be a showdown.
There were NOT enough police in the auditorium and Trump's SECRET SERVICE AGENTS told him to NOT go!
This "PROTEST" was organized by MOVE ON.ORG, BLM, ANSWER, GLENN BECK ( Teddy's joined at the hip BFF, with a GUN on his site ), the ILLEGAL ALIENS GROUPS IN CHICAGO, BERNIE SANDERS GROUPS and YOU like stupid Cruz are castigating Trump ?
There was VIOLENCE in the auditorium before he cancelled, some groups were going to rush the stage, and many people were going to be hurt!
REAGAN WOULD HAVE CANCELLED TOO!
What on earth is wrong with YOU ?
Obviously you have your own stash.
Fledermaus loves #blacklivesmatter long time.
If they rushed the Stage going after Trump, the Secret Service Agents would have had a Live Fire Exercise.
By cancelling the Event, Trump saved Lives.
The Idiots who had their Lives Saved have no idea that they are still breathing thanks to Trump, the guy they hate.
That he did and Ted Cruz doesn’t have the sense of 3 day old roadkill, for blaming Trump for what went on in Chicago and then begging everyone to vote for him! Rubio did the same act, word for word, without the begging.
Scared Trump out? I think not, I wouldn’t doubt he reschedules with a small army of security to deal with scum.
