Basically that he's inciting the behavior, encourages it and of all the canidates for the presidential race, his rallies are always filled with violent, rowdy and disruptive supporters.

I guess his people advised him to change his tune from just an hour ago when he was talking to FOX News and blaming Obama and "professional protestors" for the violence.

This is unfortunate. For the obvious reasons but also because I was hoping something like this wouldn't happen for a few more weeks until he locks up the nom.

I have this weird feeling that Trump might get shot between now and November if he does not change his some of his views. I was not expecting this large of a protest.

He said Trumps rhetoric is promoting violence and you're not seeing violence at anyone else's rallies. He mentioned the other republicans but also mentioned lack of violence at Sander's or Clinton's rallies.

Basically he said no one should be surprised it's come to this.

establishment republicans must of sent talking points out, essentially what Cruz said as well, but cruz managed to also blame the protesters and Obama.

Called out Trump and said words have consequences.. No violence at any other rally.. Why his?

Granted.. He snuck in an Obama dig.. But at least he still came out shat on him rightfully.

He listed out every other candidates' rallies, even Hillary's and Bernie's, saying that Trump's rallies are the only ones that incite violence.

Wow, they just played the announcement that the event will be postponed.

"Go in peace."

And that was it. Just left everyone there, no instructions for safe and orderly exit, no nothing.

Well, the police are there. They should be able to have people leave and disperse with no issues. Problem is, the protesters crowd pretty much outnumbers them.

Sure in some world without laws or honesty?

But you can get charged for yelling fire in a theater. You didn't physically step on the old lady. But you're responsible for causing the stampede.

People get into legal trouble for promoting violence.. or inciting violence. There is a myriad of precident. You are held responsible even for getting others to kill themselves.

People are often held responsible for others.

It isn't binary. But you know that, but hell.. maybe you dont..?

So are you saying Trump can be legally charged for what he is saying at his rallies? I don't believe that
Listen, i already told you I think his rhetoric is dangerous .. Isn't that enough .. I'm leaning towards what you are saying.. I just think fully blaming him is either myopic or politically charged rhetoric
 
Trump on Fox brazenly continuing the police lie:

"We’re very conscious of the fact that we don’t want anybody to be hurt ... Tonight, virtually nobody is even hurt. We made a very good decision ... We worked very closely with law enforcement and they gave us some really good advice."

I'm not seeing any statistics that shows 59% anywhere, not even close. How did he come to that?

"I saw some African American youth once. Okay dudes. But they weren't working. Back in the old days, African American youth would be working in the field by the age of 5. I'm going to bring things back to the good old days. I'm going to make America great again."

no joke. these trump supporters are seriously angry and im just angry about what? I seriously think there is some brainwashing going on from Fox/limbaugh/hannity et al. Yea a lot of them are racist, but seriously what are they so angry about?


honestly i couldnt be more proud of these protesters. I hope they keep it up, at every rally he tries to do, it gets shut down.
