‘F**k The Police’: Anti-Trump Protesters in San Diego

[jimnyc]

In the beginning I recall a few folks being hit within a few arenas, and folks around the nation blaming Trump due to his rhetoric and such. But since then? Sure, I'm confident that when we see arguments out in public, shit comes from both sides. But look at the amount of "protests". Yes, I say it like that as I don't see much of actual protesting, but rather folks simply looking to start trouble/violence - and these ARE NOT the Trump supporters. We have seen folks that have been PAID to come protest as well. What is to be accomplished by such tactics towards Trump supporters, as well as to the police who are simply looking to keep the peace? And I'm sorry, one cannot blame Trump to begin with!! Hell, I cannot stand the stuff coming out of Hillary's trap. But is somehow being violent and disruptive and tossing things and all the crap we have been seeing.... all OK because they don't like Trump's message? I don't think so. A lot of idiots and animals out there. And of course a lot of Mexican people - since we KNOW that Trump was only speaking of ALL Mexicans and he NEVER spoke about illegals. :rolleyes: And of course, he needs to be met with the Mexican cartel for his words. :rolleyes:

AN DIEGO — Hundreds of anti-Trump protesters clashed with hundreds of law enforcement officers and chanted “F**k Donald Trump, and f**k the police” as they were being cleared from the streets.

Some two hours after presidential candidate Donald Trump was done speaking to a rally at the San Diego Convention Center, law enforcement officers used loudspeaker equipment to tell protesters that the demonstrations were being declared an, “unlawful assembly.”

“I command all those assembled at 500 Harbor Drive to immediately disperse. You may move to L Street East. If you do not do so you will be arrested. If you refuse to move, chemical agents and other weapons will be used.”

The message came first in English, and then a message was given in Spanish. The message was repeated several times, including once from what seemed to be the helicopter hovering above.

Nevertheless, the anti-Trump protesters remained, flooding the streets and refusing to move. Scores of law enforcement moved in with what appeared to be an organized plan to contain and move the protesters away from the area.

After a considerable amount of time and effort from law enforcement, the crowd moved, but not before many climbed on street lights and other sidewalk objects, and taunted the officers.

At one point protesters began yelling, “Hey hey, ho ho, Donald Trump has got to go.” As they were continually moved out ,protesters could be heard repeating “F**k Donald Trump and f**k the police.”

Several protesters were taken into custody in the course of the several hours of protests. At times, altercations broke out between antagonistic protesters and law enforcement. Scores of signs used slurs in reference to the presumptive GOP nominee, including a particularly hostile one that suggested that Trump would die by the hands of “the cartel” within a week if elected President of the United States.

Trump Motorcade ATTACKED by Protesters – SMASHES THROUGH POLICE BARRICADE!

Secret Service agents directing the motorcade carrying presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump apparently took evasive action after objects were thrown at the SUV carrying Trump as he departed the Selland Arena in Fresno, California on Friday. Video and online reporting posted by a local TV station shows the Trump motorcade barreling through a police barricade at such a high rate of speed that a shocked reporter said ‘hundreds could have been killed or injured’ by the maneuver.

Video by ABC30 reporter Veronica Miracle shows objects being thrown by protesters hitting the Trump motorcade as the convoy departs Selland Arena.

Moments later fellow ABC30 reporter Jessica Peres posted her shocked reaction to Twitter as Trump’s motorcade apparently took evasive action.

Isn't there already a thread about the Trump rally in San Diego? :slap:

This is all on the police and security in San Diego. The protest groups were building throughout the rally and police did nothing to disperse or control them. In contrast to the previous rally in Anaheim where the two supporters groups were not allowed to interact and were dispersed once the rally started.
If you allow hundreds of angry people to start yelling at each other while all manner of cameras are present, you are going to have trouble.

Yes, the topic of the other thread out of SD is about "pandering". I thought that was about pandering in general, hence Hillary being brought up as well. This subject is also general about actions taking place at rally's throughout the nation, and of course SD being where the subject matter comes from, being the latest. If you think the pandering and then the violence and such are the same, I will gladly merge the threads. But honestly, I see the locations as not relevant.

This is happening at many places, not just California. And quite frankly, and JUST my opinion - I think you're seeing a lot of this based on how the younger democrats/liberals are handling themselves.

You see crap at the rally's for everyone, but the level of it hits the highest notes at the Trump rally's. And that can't be blamed on him, the level of how one handles themselves is solely on those people themselves. Trump can't be blamed for how so many idiots handle themselves out in front of or near an arena. No way and no how.

I agree that cameras and opposing sides will bring a lot of it out. But even then, a camera being nearby cannot take the blame for folks that start getting violent and such, no matter which side it comes from. But this year, watching as much as I can - the crazies have been coming from the left to bombard events for folks on the right. And then hell, a lot of it is even happening at some Hilary events from the Bernie supporters.

So yes, I'm prepared to blame a LOT this year from those on the left.

Gabby, come on! You are stretching things a bit.

There is still a Right for Peaceful Assembly. The police cannot stop
that assembly just on the suspicion is that was fully intended to be
other than peaceful. These protesters know this.

Only if it was previously declared to be a violent interaction with
an opposing faction could they step in from the get-go.

MAYBE for you gabby. If you keep supporting the Obama/Clinton/Sanders theory of denying Americans the right to use, and obey our 1ST Amendment; making demands that language, words, and even thoughts YOU disagree with, or do not like. YOUR IDEAL OF SOCIALISM per your Ignorance will win.

You can peacefully assemble by keeping opposing factors apart and not allow a melee to begin.
And you can declare a off-limits area, which police obviously did not enforce after the rally.

There is violence intended on both sides here. You have protesters looking for a fight and Trump supporters willing to take them on.

Was there a previously known intent? There does not appear to have been. L.E. has to assume
a neutral posture until something erupts. They go in there shoving people around initially will have
every liberal mouthpiece screaming and hollering. THAT is what your thought process and others
of similar ilk have created.

Most logical thinkers presume people will act civilized in public. Yet it seems the Liberal whiners are
largely the the aggressive side, inciting the trouble. Funny - but Liberal is supposed to mean tolerance
for each and every person or thing. It turns out to be these days it is anything but tolerance except
for special interests - and that list is very long.
