The Trump faithful (bottom left) exit the venue and seem to have to enter the protesting crowd head on. Looks like very poor judgement by LEO supervision on the ground. I can't tell if there are barriers forming a crowd line on the right. It would be good to hear from some friendlies on scene that had to wade into the opposition.

Yes this is exactly what happened. We were dumped right into the protestors. I was at the rally. I was alone so I was a little nervous but cops had them gated off and the crowd was laughing at them and chanting right back. Bunch of losers! There were some people from the rally who weren’t happy with the cops for doing that.
Hat tip to Conservative Treehouse for the image lead, and the post by karenkln.
I heard on CNN, earlier, that the protesters/fools/thugs were cordoned off in their own special safe space. Then, just before the rally was over....these thugs/fools broke the roped off area and proceeded to crowd the rally exit....and to engage with the rally goers.
Pathetic losers.
The Hartford police are MORONS and obviously had NO plan at all for tonight. :-(
