More violence at Trump rallies.

Violence at Trump rallies has actually been less than I thought, but there was a resurgence in San Jose last week. Maybe it's more venue-specific than I expected, maybe it's Trump's rhetoric getting hotter as Hillary has started zoning in on him.

I continue to think that trying to shut Trump down is a bad idea, and I using violence is even less productive. But Freepers are all in - the victim narrative, the vigilante fantasies, dim out of context memories of 1968 Democratic riots; nothing but savage joy for them.

alloysteel pretends horror at his strawman coming to life:

This is not America. This is some third-world fever swamp.

The ignorant and the blind are leading the halt and the lame.

Former Proud Canadian goes all in on the melodrama:

The country is falling apart.

MoochPooch is sure this is the liberal meltdown at last:

These people are in a tailspin. Underneath the belligerence lies a fragility; they are essentially cracking up.

Just wait until the conventions. They’re going to make San Jose look like a playground fight.

ksm1 wants to raise money because flag shenanigans are electoral gold, but the RNC is too timid to use them!

We need to raise money for campaign ads showing the photos of the Mexican flag waiving and US flag burning. Trump might be willing to go there, but we KNOW the RNC won’t. It’s on us.

Boomer - California needs some ethnic cleansing:

California, sadly, is lost. The only way to fix it is to not only physically remove every single illegal but to also revoke all anchor baby citizenships. Neither of which will happen even though it’s the right thing to do.

1Old Pro seriously thinks there were no arrests:

It is because the police are not arresting these Democrat terrorists who have crossed the line to harming people and property. I think it could get violent as the police are not enforcing the law and as these Democrat protesters see more of that then people on the other side will be defending themselves - it won't end pretty.

Chainsawj wishes he were in a movie:

We need the Boondock Saints to deliver some justice.

Veritas

Aequitas

Rurudyne makes the usual call for other people to kill the people he hates, for deterrence you see:

Rioters should be shot.

Not so much by cops but by ordinary citizens they are actually threating. I’ve had leftist say that that will only invigorate those who just saw their “brothers” or “sister” shot ... but that’s just bravado.

These people don’t believe folks they choose to menace (and it is THEIR choice to engage in violence against peaceable folks) will stand up to them and defend themselves or their property. If they did they wouldn’t riot. It’s why they don’t riot in places where they suspect folks will (States like Oklahoma or Texas) but in places like California where they have a history of not defending themselves, or even bein sympathetic to the rioters.

He's safe in his house, but CaptainAmiigaf thinks these protests are a Nazi regime:

I’ve always read that Ernst Roehm was murdered during the “Night of the Long Knives” in the 1930’s. His minions seem to have surfaced here in the USA. Of course, they are not wearing the uniform BROWN SHIRTS, but we sure are seeing his followers.

They must think it is time to come out of the shadows.

HarleyLady27 lowers the bar on what terrorism is, but compensates with ALINSKY!

What we saw in San Jose was terrorism defined by the FBI...

Terrorism:

The use of violence and intimidation in the pursuit of political aims.

Hillary studied the Saul Alinsky rules and she lives by them, this is part of the terrorism we are seeing today with what happens to the Trump rallies...

Saul Alinsky’s 12 Rules for Radicals

Here is the complete list from Alinsky.

dware wants the violence, but knows Freepers ain't gonna do any of this shooting they call for:

We are allowing it by doing nothing. We call ourselves patriots, and yet we continue to allow the riots. We allow ourselves to be beaten by these rotten, two bit, piece of trash ignorant criminal scumbags, instead of treating them as such.

We call ourselves patriots, yet we do nothing while the real patriots sit in jail in Oregon and Nevada.

We love talking about how great the 2nd Amendment is, while refusing to put it to use. Instead, we submit to un-Constitutional background checks, and are more than happy to hand our cash over to FFL dealers who, for all intents and purposes, make a great deal of money by bending over backwards for the feds, who continue to trample our rights.

BenLurkin is ready for the Freeper ninjas, though!

Isn’t it time to take the party DIRECTLY to those who wish to celebrate?

Strike back from the shadows. Far from police presence and cameras.

On leftists thugs who are in a place they think is safe... until the blow lands.
