By Derek Hunter March 13, 2016 Just about the time I was getting ready to write this column, news broke from Chicago that a Trump rally was canceled because of threats. Not surprising, I thought. Sad, but not surprising. Welcome to the 2016 election. I'm not a Trump fan by any stretch of the imagination. If you've been reading my columns, I've been quite critical of his unwillingness or inability to speak in specifics on important policy issues. I sympathize with conservatives who oppose him from a policy angle. But what happened in Chicago is different. It was portrayed as a protest specifically against Donald Trump, but these self-entitled progressive monsters would've eventually gone after whoever the Republican candidate with the most delegates was because it's what they do - they try to suppress, then oppress, anyone who dares to says anything their feeble minds deem unacceptable. Granted, Trump hasn't helped the political atmosphere - there isn't anyone in the race, Democrat or Republican, he hasn't called some pejorative term. But it used to be the words that didn't hurt you, it was the "sticks and stones" you had to look out for. Now progressive Democrats use sticks and stones (and fists) to combat words they don't like. But then, the Democratic Party of today is not the Democratic Party of yesterday. Media progressives love to claim Ronald Reagan couldn't win the GOP nomination in 2016, the implication being the party has moved so far to the right he simply wouldn't be acceptable to these "extremists." It's a lie, but lying is what progressives do. Reagan would be far more acceptable to Republicans today than John F. Kennedy would be to Democrats. In todays Democratic Party, which has shed its center like a snake sheds its skin, JFKs anti-communist views and his use of tax cuts to stimulate economic growth would be fought at every turn. His Ask not what your country can do for you speech would have been interrupted by protesters demanding a slice of someone elses pie. Not only could JFK not win the nomination of the current Democratic Party, he would be ashamed to be a part of this party. What was on display in Chicago was anti-American. It is also the new American left. That riotous mob in Chicago is progressive, and the petri dish from which this modern progressive mob springs is the college campus. Children are being taught they have a right not to hear anything they disagree with and that this right supersedes someone elses right to say it. Yet these delicate shells of people, these soft-boiled eggs, feel compelled to go beyond not attending an event to stopping the event from happening in the first place. As if their tenured-teacher-implanted safe space is a fragile black hole, sucking up words whether theyre said directly to them or simply nearby. Americans dont shut down speech with which they disagree; they dont seek to punish the speaker. That was the realm of communists, fascists, socialists, Nazis progressives.

So who is the "Nazi" that gave Trump the Nazi salute? Whoops turns out she's a Progressive Socialist and "Trump Nazi" is Portia Boulger, who runs the Women for Bernie Sanders Twitter account. It's another media plant. It becomes irresponsible for the Lame Stream Media and the Progressive Marxist Socialist to continue to plant and spread misinformation about the Republican Party and especially Donald Trump. The Obama administration continues to claim that the Conservative groups, Christians and the Tea Party are on the Dept. of Homeland Security watch list. Hmm...., guess they gave all the Progressive groups like #OWS and #BLM, the New Black Panther Party, and now the Colleges and Universities that spew this vile rhetoric and vicious action. There is another woman that claims she gave the Nazi salute a West German Berliner.
These Bernie supporters might as well get ready to decide to vote for someone else. It does not seem Sanders has a snowballs chance against Hillary. I guess Hillary will gladly accept these idiots in her corner. They seem to be just as dishonest as she is.
umm.. even conservative sources have picked up on this not being true http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...Portia-Boulger-tries-explain-Nazi-salute.html (the dailymail are left socialists, right?) The woman in the photo is not Portia Boulger, she is Birgitt Peterson... and my favorite part about this whole confusion was when Donald Trump's son retweeted a white supremacist https://newrepublic.com/minutes/131...s-donald-trump-jr-retweeted-white-supremacist good job
was it republicans that disarmed the public and is silencing apposing speech in illinois? - - - Updated - - - fought for unions? clear liberal plant, you're way too gullible
LMAO...What a lame, (*)(*)(*)(*)ing lie. No other candidates have violence at their rallies because they don't act and talk like a racist, hate mongering demagogue and goad the rubes toward violence. Trump's chumps are an angry, stupid mob aching for violence, and they are acting under Trump's direction. I expect Trump will try to have his mafia masters stage a fake hit on him at a rally if he wins the nomination to help get more sympathy from the rubes. This guy has the right-wingers by the shorthairs and jerks them around like puppets.
So you guys dislike hate so much that you turn to violence, calls for assassination and murder of people at rallies who disagree with you? Also what did trump say that was racist? The exact quote please.
Serious thread fail here. Donald J Trump Jr. misidentified that person and she's not Portia Boulger. Portia Boulger looks like this; So Nazi Salute Lady is indeed a Trump supporter.
Your forgot the word violent in your necessary protest phrase. Violent protest is illegal here in the U.S.A. Anyone who cant handle voting and needs to act out violently instead is no American. These violent leftist protesters are an illustration of how dumb a human being can get. They cant even articulate what they are acting out with violence for. Just spoiled brats running around like they always do when they dont get their way. Please tell us why you stated these VIOLENT protests were necessary. You were talking about the recent violent ones right?
lol leftists show up and impersonate their opponents supporters all the time. You can spot them easily. They are the idiots acting like idiots and throwing the race card wherever they can. Can you cite where Trump has said he supported nazis and racists?
So anybody that acts racist as a Trump supporter is actually a leftist trying to make Trump look bad? Gee, then EVERY single Trump supporter I've EVER talked to at any time and any where is actually a leftist, I had no idea this was so widespread. IMO these protestors were hired by Trump himself.
It works on the forum. When I want to say something truly asinine to discredit the right I post with my doombug sock-puppet.
So you are saying you have spoken to Trump supporters and everyone was a racist correct? Tell us what they said which of course means I want to hear what youll make up. Every single Trump supporter you have ever spoken to....is a racist. Who here believes he is telling the truth?
The dirty Dems planned it. Move On have admitted as much. I wouldn't be surprised if they pay them to instigate. THIS is what the Dems have wrought. Free speech is only free if the Dems approve. What a disgrace they are! They are reliving the 30s and 40s in Germany and it is SCARY!!!
If a guy was currently raping your daughter, would you not use violence to suppress him? Or the guy robbing your store, or the guy mugging you, etc. Violence is necessary in any political system except radical pacifism.
Yet in this case she was one of his flock. His rise mirrors Mussolini without the erudition. That nazi is going to vote for Trump. America needs to wake up and vote against her wishes.
