Protesters Scare Trump Out of Chicago
The Daily Beast ^ | 3-11-2016

Posted on 03/11/2016 8:29:32 PM PST by Citizen Zed

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 don’t 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.”

“It’s a Friday, go do something,” a Trump supporter, wearing an “All Lives Matter” shirt shot back.

“You’re a c*cks*cker for a fascist,” a young man in a hoodie, who identified himself as Mexican, said.

Trump has zero to do with the shooting thy cnhanted about.

These are professional agitators.

They are attempting to Goldstein Trump and his supporters. Refer to 1984 for the reference.

Preview of much more to come for the general election season. Terrorist protesters will bring violence to any rally by any R nominee.

On election day, I would not be surprised to see voter intimidation efforts by the left. Remember the Black Panthers blocking a polling station (in Philly?) a few elections ago? Now, it's not tough to envision gangs of bussed-in "protesters" blocking voters in R-leaning neighborhoods.

...so the “peaceful” protesters were threatening violence and it’s all Trump’s fault.

Life in Obamaland - ain’t it great?

Yea I don’t know why Trump didn’t go....I’m sure there would have been enough police officers to protect him.

Reagan would stand toe to toe with this scum. Gorbechav got beat, Trump runs away.

Trump said he wanted to punch a protester in the face. He had the chance in Chicago and turned it down.

I don't understand................

Heh heh - he wasn't afraid of them, he was saving their bacon from those who support him and understand that when society in general is constrained from standing up against the thugs of the world, the People have the duty to "insist" on better behavior and they may do so by showing the thugs what words like "tough" and "bad-ass" really mean when applied to a good and decent citizenry that is fed up with being overrun by vermin. The righteous are also tough - they just don't go around beating up on others until tings get really out of hand....then the bad guys better BEWARE!!!

GO TRUMP!!!

By cancelling the Event, Trump saved Lives.

I suspect the SS pulled the plug, not Trump

I agree. I'm just saying the decision was made to protect Trump, not anyone else.

***enraged mob-clusters and doped-up student hippie-types***

These protestors are PAID! - I would be willing to bet. This is what politics is coming to in America: be of the right political persuasion or else! Shut down all opposition! ...and, if I had to make a guess, I would say the motivation behind this unrest is Geo S0r0s among others.

As I have been saying more and more recently: it is STALINISM!

Scumbags, NO. They behave exactly like Hitler’s storm troopers in Germany on “Crystal Nacht” or in a combination with the ISIS terrorists. The mob don’t even know about Crystal Nacht, never heard about it in history classes !!!
