YEP!

Non Violent love fests - with the main speaker suggesting protestors should be taken out in stretchers....and then offering legal help to the people who oblige him.

I'm so glad you've found your man, Alan.

Hey...Don't blame me, I'm voting for Bernie...at least in June. I renounce violence at political rallies I think it is abhorrent. Maybe you should renounce your 'peaceful protesters' assaulting those cops in Chicago...but we don't really hear much about them...wonder why???

Let's just put it in perspective. Of the 400,000+ who have attended Trump rallies exactly how many have been 'taken out in stretchers'? I believe that number is a big fat zero. Drama queen much?

So....Do you support political groups trying to shut down their opponents ability to speak or assemble because they disagree with them? I think that's un-American. Let them speak.

Donald Trump is not a political group. he is a single person who is running for president as the frontrunner of a political group. I hold such a person to a higher standard than the lowest/dumbest supporter in his camp. You seem to struggle on that front - hence your argument that makes a false equivalency between Donald Trump and unnamed liberal protestors.

And Like I've said....I'm happy to call out liberal protestors as being rude. But being rude is not illegal. Beating people is illegal. Another false equivalency you've made.

You go to really long lengths to rationalize your support for the Donald, don't you? Whatever helps you sleep at night, buddy.

There is a new ad out with women reading Trumps own tweets about woman. Pretty effective ad. On one morning show, he was asked about it on live tv and he said he hadn't seen the ad and couldn't comment on it. Yet on another morning show, one that was taped an hour earlier, he said he saw it and it was disgusting. He went on to say the true unemployment number in the US is 48%.
I'm beginning to wonder if he is purposely trying to destroy the Republican party. He's doing a great job of insuring the next couple of Supreme Court Justices breeze through the Democratic controlled Senate.

I don't support Donald Trump. I am not now nor have I ever been a Republican. I do try to keep things in perspective though. Especially when the drama queens start with the Trump is Hitler stuff.

Now, I neither said that being rude was illegal nor beating people is legal. In fact I said violence at political rally's is abhorrent and protesters have a right to their speech until they are trespassed. I also said trying to keep your political opposition from assembling or speaking is un-American. Please don't make shit up about what I said. Maybe you have me confused with someone else you don't like.

As far as I know one person got sucker punched by a 78 year old at a Trump rally. He was arrested. Two cops were assaulted by anti-Trump protestors in Chicago. They were arrested. It sure seems like the 'peaceful' anti-Trump people are just as violent as the Trumpsters. You all are just afraid to admit it.

I wonder if there will be 'peaceful' protests at the Republican Convention in Cleveland. "Won't you please come to Ohio just to sing?"

Interesting that Trump is called a fascist, but it is the liberals who are employing the nazi technique of breaking up rallies by the opposition.

Interesting analogy, never thought of it that way and to think some idiots have compared Trump to Hitler.

From Wkipedia

"The Sturmabteilung (SA; German pronunciation: [??t???m?ap?ta?l??] ( listen); literally "Storm Detachment") functioned as the original paramilitary wing of the Nazi Party.

It played a significant role in Adolf Hitler's rise to power in the 1920s and 1930s. Their primary purposes were providing protection for Nazi rallies and assemblies, ]b]disrupting the meetings of opposing parties.."

"..The SA have been known in contemporary times as "Brownshirts" from the color of their uniform shirts, similar to Benito Mussolini's blackshirts.."
