Authorities in Las Vegas arrested a 19-year-old man after he allegedly tried to disarm a police officer at the Donald Trump presidential rally.

Fox News: Las Vegas Metro police said Michael Sanford approached a uniformed officer and started a conversation looking to get an autograph. Minutes into the conversation, Sanford attempted to disarm the officer, police said.

Authorities said officers assigned to the rally were able to take Sanford into custody with little disruption at the venue. No other incidents or injuries were reported.

Why don't they say, “steal his gun,” or “assault the officer?”

The more I hear about the left's hatred for Trump the more convinced I am that he's the right man for the job. The idiotic leftists don't understand that the more they exhibit their violent behavior the more they are pushing voters to want to vote for Trump. Having said that bring it Muzzies, La Razans, progressive / leftist idiots. You are doing a great job putting your idiocy on full display and helping conservatives prove that you are out of your ever lovin minds.

They’ll always tell you who they fear the most by their reactions.

They’re so predictable, it’s boring.

Trying to steal a gun is dumb. Trying to steal a cop in uniform's gun? WOW!

"Authorities in Las Vegas arrested a 19-year-old man after he allegedly tried to disarm a police officer at the Donald Trump presidential rally."

If the punk wanted the gun so bad, at least give him some bullets.

Asking a cop for his autograph was the first clue.

Steal? Acquire a usable weapon in proximity to a SS protectee is the issue.

I believe now (Because I was there and saw the cops almost the instant they grabbed the perp.) that he was attempting an assassination on Trump. If he had gotten the Policeman’s gun, he was within 50-75 feet from a nice clear side shot at a totally exposed Donald Trump.

I thought at the time the cops were sure holding and twisting that guy like he had tried to do something seriously wrong.
