    Meanwhile, Obama’s pet Ukranazis have been massacring protestors in Ukraine since 2014, and I see not a word about that from those railing against the Trumpettes.

    It just points out the utter slobbering hypocrisy of the Amerikastani “liberal” gang of Obama worshippers. To them, when the blood soaked war criminal who attacks another country is a Democrat, then it’s all right. When it’s a Republican, then it’s suddenly evil. I challenge even one of the Obamastanis who draw and/or reply here to tell me if they even once condemned Obama’s pet Ukranazis or his dictator puppet al Sisi.

    Interesting that Trump uses Freedom of Speech with his “politically incorrect” language yet threatens to sue when anyone else uses that freedom to tell the truth about him.

    Shouldn’t that big clumsy oaf be missing most of his teeth?That would be a more accurate stereotype.

    You know WHY this is happening, don’t you? Coz The Donald said he’d pay the legal fees of anyone who gets busted for beating up protesters at one of his rallies.[]https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2016/03/10/trump-once-said-he-would-pay-legal-fees-for-people-who-beat-up-protesters-now-that-its-happened-can-he/

    It will be interesting to see if Trump keeps that promise as the lawsuits pile up.Can the Donald be arrested for inciting a riot?Or is it OK if a right wing fascist does it?

    This is not just an issue in the Trump Campaign, but is an issue in many presidential campaigns these days, partly because the “Black Lives Matter” movement has targeted their campaigns in recent months as targets and sites/events to protest.-These folks have hijacked a Bernie Sanders rally in Seattle back in September of 2015 and have repeatedly struck his campaign events since then.-They’ve also struck at Hillary Clinton’s campaign events, too.-And perhaps the reason that these events are being targeted is because the heavy media presence at these campaigns is there and the movement hopes to get some attention, perhaps by hijacking the events like terrorists and spread their message while they have hijacked the event and stolen it away from the people who are holding the event in the first place and unlawfully converting that events purpose for anything other than what the event holder and sponsor intended.-The Trump Campaign has been a lot more vocal and at times even more forceful about their response to these hooligans and that has gotten everybody’s attention recently, but when a spectator in the crowd took it upon himself to elbow protesters that the security personnel at the rally were escorting peacefully out of the event, and then resorted to punching one of them in the face, then everybody is now in an uproar, but the reality here is that we really should be angry at the protesters and possibly the movement that is inspiring them to protest in this manner.-And protesting at events like this should be seen like blocking the eastbound traffic on the Bay Bridge or chaining themselves to a BART train at the West Oakland Station and that these acts are disruptive and possibly even criminal, starting with “Disorderly Conduct” and “Trespassing” under any and every Penal Code and working their way up beyond Misdemeanor Charges to Felonies, especially when intent is shown that they wanted to block traffic, keep trains from running normally, and disrupting somebody else’s event like a campaign rally.-And these people disrupting events should not be surprised when some people at these events respond the way they do, like that spectator punching that protester in the face at that Trump rally—it could have been worse, like a motorist on the Bay Bridge getting out of their vehicle after the protesters tied up traffic, taking out a firearm they just so happened to have and then “exercising their 2nd Amendment Rights” on the protesters, and sooner or later, something like a death is going to happen and if one or more of the protesters wants to become a martyr for their cause, sooner-or-later, they might just get their wish.-The Alameda County District Attorney’s office already caved-in to the protesters that blocked the BART system—by chaining themselves to a BART train at West Oakland Station, a major thruway and choke-point for the entire BART system save he Richmond-to-Fremont Line—by not charging them for their wanton act of disobedience, be it “civil” or otherwise.-Hopefully the San Francisco DA’s Office charges the protesters that took it on themselves to chain both themselves and their vehicles in such a manner as to block civilian traffic on I-80 eastbound on the new section of the Bay Bridge between Yerba Buena Island and Oakland, but things have been quiet there since they got arrested by the CHP and hauled off to San Francisco.-In the meantime, I won’t be surprised if there are more incidents of spectators at a campaign rally take it on themselves to register their dscontent and their displeasure at those who interrupt the events they showed up for and hopefully there isn’t some new “Jared Loughner” out there willing to discharge a firearm at one of these events, either on the protesters or anybody else at the event.-But with the way things are going these days, I’m afraid sooner-or-later we may learn about deaths at these protests and when that happens, things will get worse before they get better.

    “Great” in T-Rump Land means being able to beat any Brown Skinned people you meet to death with Zero consequences..That’s why T-Rump bragged that HE could shoot someone and not lose a single supporter..

    At this hour in Chicago I’m watching live coverage of a fight between supporters & protesters of yours truly at a rally that’s been postponed. Trump has definitely succeeded in making America hate again

    This cartoon came out before the liberal riot in Chicago. Perhaps Mr. Anderson will want to print a “clarification”. Oh wait, he’s a liberal. They’re never wrong.

    Trump whining about First Amendment rights, while demanding opponents be thrown out, and punched in the face (a direct statement from Trump) is more than a tad twisted. EXACTLY like listening to Mussolini, Hitler, or McConnel and the crowd speaking to the DUTY of the Senate to consider a vote at least for a SCOTUS nominee by the President elected by the people and in office with nearly a year left.

    BTW; “Bruce”, it might be intersting to look at the comparison of what “viewpoint” speech gets people banned or vanished from certain web sites.

    We have the “greatest” (most expensive and dispersed around the world) military in the world, the DOW is back over 17,000, private sector jobs went up by a quarter million in February, ACTUAL taxes paid-not the potential maximum by corporations in the US are the lowest in the industrialized world, the rich pay the lowest percentage in taxes as well, and subsidies to corporations are more costly than “social programs” in those “socialist” countries. It is interesting to see how badly corporations and the rich have done under the Obama administration, just like Clinton times.

    “Liberal riot in Chicago”? Oh, yeah. Some protestors showed up, and Trump ran off, claiming they were oppressing him, and trying to lie that the police or somebody told him it was unsafe. Man, that Trump is one brave fella.
