Lol! I have studied Karate, years ago, but I have never headbutted anybody, not even in play. I figured it would hurt both the Butt’er AND the Butt’ee.

It's a highly effective technique, done right. Very popular fighting element in soccer countries. Look up "Glasgow kiss".

“the throng of protesters gathered along MLK Boulevard”

The thing speaks for itself.

> If you’re going to wade into a bunch of protestors so you can punch someone don’t do it in front of the police

That is SO obvious that one must ask whether this person was genuinely a Trump supporter, or an Antifa doing roleplay for the cameras.

Perhaps next week or month we will see the facebook page of the “Trump supporter” and find out that he actually isn’t. If that happens, it won’t make the news.

I was pointing out to my girlfriend last night - as we were watching part of the Trump rally in Indiana - that Trump rallies do not seem to correspond to the Dem/media stereotype of Trump supporters being a bunch of angry, fascistic, racist, violence-prone people.

The people are usually smiling, laughing, or simply calm; they are dressed in ordinary clothes, look clean and respectable, aren't wearing weird or vulgar costumes or masks, aren't screaming with rage, and aren't carrying signs with hateful or obscene messages.

The rare incidents of violence are always triggered by disruptors, they usually occur on the outer fringes of the rally, and are always limited to a handful of people.

I am gratified that the police were actively trying to keep the protesters separated from the supporters. Ok, we now have, what, TWO incidents in which a Trump supporter allegedly popped a protester? Ooooooo. Of course, just like Columbia, South Carolina, the MSM will now bring this up in every conversation, as if to multiply the incidence of such occurrences, because they’re crooked. But, wouldn’t be surprised if he was extremely provoked, else why was the protester also led off in cuffs? At any rate, what’s the score, again, 1,995 to 2?
And by the way, there still IS such a thing as “fighting words”, though the left only recognizes one side of that rule.

If it IS false flag, only conservative sites will report it as such, and show proof. Thank God for social media, despite all its drawbacks.

Eventually, the truth about the payment for these radicals will come out. I can hardly WAIT for the day Soros is stripped of citizenship and deported, even if he CAN still run his scam from out of the country.

I have attended a rally and you are exactly correct about the people there.... a very upbeat, friendly, optimistic crowd. For those of us who live in leftist states, it’s just nice to be with people who agree with you politically.

could have been a false flagging

My first thought. Certainly several of the so-called white supremacists in Charlottesville were later revealed to be leftist plants, via facial recognition technology.
