Black Lives Matter Activists Take Online Victory Lap Over Trump Rally Shutdown

As a planned Donald Trump rally in Chicago was canceled Friday night, leftist protesters online wasted no time in taking a victory lap for the free-speech shutdown.

Does CC not have interest that a political rally in the USA was shut down by opposing political violence? Or are 'key' members of CC secretly happy it happened to Trump?

More ominously, others hailed the protesters’ victory against Donald Trump and his supporters as an indication of things to come. Some referenced a planned rally in Cleveland.

[Fourwinds]

No. I'm not happy at all. I'm just not surprised. Those on the left have been running wild for almost 8 years now without repercussion. It's no wonder they have gotten to the point where they will resort to violence and fascist tactics all the while accusing   their opposition of the same thing.

Maybe it's time we started answering kind with kind.

I actually kind of pissed that Kasich, Rubio and Cruz, all softly threw some of the blame at Trump for basically using inflammatory language.

[IndiCon15]

Whatever my reservations are over a possible Trump presidency, something like this reminds me of how important it is that a Republican win in November. 

[ExGeeEye]

Yep, I done my primary voting, and my choice didn't prevail.  Maybe he won't, it doesn't seem likely.

If the nominee is Trump, I'm for Trump come November.  No picking my twucks outta the sandbox and going to tell my mommy about the meanies!

If the nominee is Chuck E. Cheese, guess what.  I'll be voting for Chuck E. Cheese, is what.

I considered a third party wasted vote in the Gen. Election. Still might if the RNC screws with the convention too much.

I found this piece on another forum and found it to be a good read.

It does make a good argument for what is going on.

If or when Trump is no longer in the sites of these .. er scum, who will be their next target?

The establishment media has delighted in playing the Hitler card when it comes to Donald Trump and his supporters but after Friday night’s storming of a Chicago rally they have refused to apply any similar tag to those who shut it down. It has now come to this in America where free speech and forced diversity have resulted in the closing of venues because of thuggish opposition to legitimate political speech.

It was in pre-war, pre-Holocaust Germany where Hitler’s Sturmabteilung relied on exactly the same style of tactics used by the loose affiliation of leftists, militant black SJW’s and Democratic Party operatives used to bust up the Trump rally last night.  Yet the media refuses to apply the same standard to the thugs and hooligans in Chicago and in fact instead of denouncing the misbehavior astonishingly seems to report the events with a sense of smugness that borders on cheerleading which will only encourage more harassment and violence going forward.

The always reliable Trump-hating Washington Post is a perfect example with the story “Get ’em out!’ Racial tensions explode at Donald Trump’s rallies”:

    In the evening in Chicago, Trump canceled a rally at the University of Illinois at Chicago after brawls broke out at the event site.

    Trump’s camp issued a statement saying that “for the safety of all the tens of thousands of people that have gathered in and around the arena, tonight’s rally will be postponed to another date. Thank you very much for your attendance and please go in peace.

    Inside the Peabody Opera House in St. Louis earlier in the day, protesters interrupted Trump eight times, prompting catcalls and chants from the crowd as security officers removed them. Scores were injured or arrested in clashes between Trump supporters and critics outside the venue, where thousands had gathered in an overflow area to listen to the event over loudspeakers.

    Trump is known for his massive, raucous rallies — part campaign events, part media spectacles, part populist exaltations for his most loyal supporters. But the events have also become suffused with the kind of hostility and even violence that are unknown to modern presidential campaigns.

    The candidate himself often seems to wink at, or even encourage, rough treatment of protesters.

    “Come on, get ’em out, police, please. Let’s go!” Trump shouted here on Friday, complaining that protesters could not be removed more quickly because “nobody wants to hurt each other anymore.”

    In incidents around the country this month, local police officers and security personnel frequently have been unable to keep anti-Trump protesters safe when their largely peaceful, if noisy, demonstrations have been met with physical attacks. The confrontations have only grown as Trump events have become a regular destination for liberal demonstrators, who are increasingly organizing large contingents through social media.

However as described by numerous media sources angry goon squads like the ones in Chicago are not engaged in crushing free speech even if they are openly calling for mob action on social media. One influential voice who is openly calling for violence is rapper Chris Brown, according to conservative website the Daily Caller in the article “Chris Brown Just Went Off On Every Single One Of Donald Trump’s Supporters”:

    Chris Brown urged black protesters to travel in groups to Donald Trump rallies from now on after a white Trump supporter punched a black protester.

    In an angry post on Instagram Thursday night, the 26-year-old singer had a message for the Republican front-runner’s fanbase.

    “Man, this shit is getting crazy,” Brown said in the video. “Black people getting assaulted at bleep rallies where you’re supposed to talk at. What you need to start doing — all these black people, go together 40, 50 deep. See what they do then.”

    “Keep touching us, motherf****r.”

The double standard is prime example of how poorly served that Americans are by a media that is so dishonest and complicit that it would make Joseph Goebbels himself proud. They may not be congregating and scheming in fetid beer halls thanks to today’s technology but it sure as hell doesn’t make these dangerous and violent trouble makers any less Brownshirt than their historical ancestors.

Media Fails to Point Out Anti-Trump Protesters Use of Brownshirt Tactics – Downtrend

[Boudicca]

I've been solidly behind Donald J. Trump since he came down that escalator last June.  It's been an amazing and uplifting experience for me, and many others.  I am so proud of my candidate, and of my fellow supporters of DJT!   But I pray every day for not only his, and our great nation's success, but for his life and the lives of his family and the security teams locally, as well as those with him on a daily basis.

I never thought I'd see the other candidates ALL sink to such depths of depravity as to essentially condone the criminal elements including the terrorist murderous scum Bill Ayers!!   Not only do I find the WORDS of Cruz, Kasich and Rubio disgusting and disingenuous, but downright un-American, to implicitly lay all, most, or some (depending on the actual weasel words coming at the time out of each of their mouths) of the blame for the terroristic actions in Chicago on Trump.  They impugn both the real words of the Bill of Rights and their spirit when they attack free speech and the right to peacefully assemble!  I am, for one, sick and tired to death of both the other candidates AND their media, corporate and special interests enablers.

I certainly hope Trump achieves the 1237 delegates he needs to have an uncontested nomination, or I'm certain that the GOP party "leaders" will conspire, as they have to date, to deprive Mr. Trump of his position as the nominee.  If no one speaks boldly NOW, against the human filth parading through Chittown last Friday OR even acknowledges the online and real life death threats hurled at Mr. Trump, however would I entrust the precious beyond measure children and grandchildren God has blessed me with or the future of my beloved country and her instruments of freedom, the Constitution and Bill of Rights, to any of the other five candidates running on either side?

Answer, it's gonna be a cold, cold day in Hell before I vote ever in this election cycle for anyone besides Donald J. Trump.

And that seems to be the difference between DJT supporters and others.  I will gladly vote for Trump if he's the nominee, though it doesn't seem to be a reciprocated view.  Much like the "True Conservatives".

Double Standard...  that says it all.

I'm very disappointed that Rubio and Cruz attributed some blame to Trump. My opinion of Kasich is low enough that his doing so doesn't surprise me. Among those three the only one I do not prefer over Trump is Kasich.

Sources are saying that Kasich has received money from George Soros or one of his groups.

Link?  That would be huge.

[SVPete]

FWIW, from this Breitbart article:

As new reports break that a George Soros-linked group is taking credit for efforts to violently disrupt GOP frontrunner Donald Trump’s campaign rallies, the Center for Responsive Politics reveals that another George Soros-linked group is coordinating another furtive operation to stop Trump by financing the campaign of John Kasich.

Stripping away the irrelevant guilt-by-association and purplish rhetoric, it appears that one of Soros' political groups has contributed to Kasich's campaign.

I sometimes forget that Kasich is even in the running. He has been nothing but a vote siphon from the start.

BLM showed it's impotence yesterday...not only did Trump continue on to stack up delegates and won 4 states...but he also won the state of Illinois...so take that BLM, you worthless racists!

[txradioguy]

The 100%'er types...be it Ron Paul zombies or Trumpbots...end up doing just as much harm to Conservatives/Republicans as people like McConnell...Ryan and Boehner.

Meh.  IIRC most if not all of those were open primaries.  DJT has problems when the primary voting is limited to Republicans only.

Florida is closed and he won the whole state with the exception of one county, Miami.

That's the only one right?  Look at where most of DJT's victories have come...open primaries.

NC is a closed primary also.

I'm with you.  I do have a lot of reservations about Trump but if he is the Republican nominee I will be behind him 100% and vote for him.  Staying home on election day because my choice didn't get the nomination is giving support to the Democrats. Trump may have his faults but he will be a much better president than Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders.  I think both of these two would be as bad (if not worse) than Obama.

[tiny1]

NC is a closed primary also.

No, it isn't.
I live in NC, and I voted for Trump.  I am an Independent. 
When you check in, they ask you which Primary you will be voting in.  If I am not mistaken, they note that.
Independents and Democrats are crossing over to Trump, in droves.  Establishment hacks claim that it is just so Hillary can run against Trump.  They think she can beat Trump.  They have zero clues.
It tickles me that for decades the eGOP has been swearing that they are trying to build a coalition of voters.  They do so by pandering to minorities.  They really do think they can convince black voters, or gay voters or liberals to come on board.  Then along comes Trump, and without pandering, is getting more Hispanics, women and Democrats, than anyone since Reagan.
So, he does what they say they WANT to do, and they try to take him down for the effort.  True to form, for them.

That's incorrect.  You're registered as unaffiliated, which allows you to choose the ballot of any party.  If you're registered as a dem or rep, you can only vote in your registered party primary.  In other words no registered democrat can vote in the North Carolina republican primary and vice versa.

Her in Illinois, you go in show your voter's registration card, not an ID, to verify you're in the right place. Then you tell them what ballot you want. You can ask for either one.
