Hillary Clinton On Protests Of Trump: 'Play With Matches, You're Going To Start A Fire You Can't Control'
By KURTIS LEE, March 12, 2016
Democrats offered strong condemnation of Donald Trump on Saturday, pointing to his caustic rhetoric as the igniter of unrest between his supporters and detractors.
Hillary Clinton, the front-runner for the Democratic nomination, said at a campaign appearance in St. Louis on Saturday that Trump's "divisive rhetoric ... is wrong and it's dangerous." "If you play with matches, you're going to start a fire you can't control. That's not leadership," she said. "That's political arson. The test of leadership and citizenship is the opposite. If you see bigotry, oppose it. If you see violence, condemn it. And if you see a bully, stand up to him." On Friday, Trump canceled a planned rally at the University of Illinois-Chicago as protesters and his supporters confronted one another on the streets and inside the arena where the event was to be held. The fracas was the culmination of months of tensions between Trump supporters and smaller groups of protesters at his rallies, where Trump has urged his backers to defend themselves and said he even wanted to punch protesters himself.

Will someone please supply this woman with an orange jumpsuit?
Did Ted Cruz and Hillary Clinton both get the same talking points? From where?
I am ashamed of Ted Cruz for not supporting freedom. He sounds like Hillary Clinton.
Well, Hillary, defender of those who hate America, when Trump gets finished with you, you will not know WHAT hit you.
Thanks for the insight, Hillary, Ted, Marco and John.
Peas in a pod.
Fn A right btch.
Burn the establishment to the ground.
I am ashamed of Ted Cruz for not supporting freedom. He sounds like Hillary Clinton.
Silly Hillary must be on and off meds. She popped a pill during a debate and now gets confused. Her Nancy Reagan comments, accusing mother of Benghazi victim, etc. She is now all too happy to divert the conversation from her emails and Benghazi scandals.
And Hillary knows a lot about pouring verbal gasoline on fires. Hillary is a political arsonist.
Tell it to your President when he incites violence against the police.
She is warning Trump that if he persists in running there will be physical violence. The left commits the violence then succeeds in blaming the object of the violence.
Wow!
Remarkably stupid for you to point out Cruz/Rubio/Kasich are saying the same thing as Clinton.
Hillary Clinton on protests of Trump: ‘Play with matches, you’re going to start a fire you can’t control’
She also put herself in the same camp as Ted, John and Marco. I thought they criticized Trump for being a Hilary fan,
There’s no longer a difference between LYING TED, Rubio and Clinton. They are all enemies of REAL AMERICANS and loved by illegal aliens, communists, terrorists and traitors.
It’s so stupid of her. Her and her ilk don’t have a clue what they are up against. Donald already talked about it to 40,000 people in Dayton a it will likely be 100K before the end of the day. Those are direct - at the rallies and live streams. He was already on the media. He’s been tweeting - 7+ million at a crack.
Hillary is going to get run over like a gnat under the track of a bulldozer.
The left isn’t going to like it if the right plays by their rules!
