Kansas City mayor urges nonviolence as Trump protesters gear up
The Hill ^

Posted on 03/12/2016 1:35:15 PM PST by TigerClaws

Just hours after Chicago protests forced Donald Trump to cancel a rally Friday, the mayor of Kansas City is urging protesters to remain non-violent ahead of the Republican presidential candidate’s rally there Saturday.

ADVERTISEMENT Anti-Trump protesters in Kansas City have vowed to shut down his event.

“The fascist clown Donald Trump is coming to our city this Saturday,” a Facebook page titled “Trump Out of KC” wrote. “It is our job and our city to unite to #ShutItDown.”

The page details the protesters’ plans to demonstrate inside and outside the rally.

Mayor Sly James took to Twitter on Friday to ask protesters to “avoid situations that incite violence.”

what they need to do is catch the ORGANIZERS of the protest and put them in jail. That would do wonders to discourage the radical lib troublemakers from doing this.

Under the circumstances...there is a need for local stations to carry a televised rally in their city...and with none of that “equal time” stipulation.

Trump should buy TV time instead of holding rallies in states where the First Amendment no longer is honored. Too bad people live in Marxist cities that attack all speech they oppose as “hate speech,” when the only hate is from the Democrat/ Communist zealots in the Bernie army and the BLM thugocracy.

Glenn Beck and the GOP elite have used the "fascist" and "Nazi" rhetoric over and over again and yet, no call to end to tone that kind of speech down.

Some cities have control of their populace behavior and some do not.

Stand up to these thugs and if they disturb the peace arrest them. DON’T back down or cancel because that will just encourage them. Force them to either behave, leave, or go to jail.

The Nazi party came into power through violence, rioting and demonstrations. Now its happening in the US.

I agree with you. Rent out the Ryder and Penske fleet and let them bake for 6 hours. 20 to a truck.

It would be like Grandmas basement, but different.

Exactly correct. Each win just emboldens them to do more the next time.

Put this protest out. Violently if need be.
