Today, news stories are easily found where liberal Democrat protests are always dubbed “mostly peaceful” by their media supporters, however those “protests” almost always result in disruption of freedom of movement by innocent commuters, public and private property damage, arrests, and sometimes injury and death.

As President Trump begins his post-coronavirus campaign rallies, liberals are now feeling #threatened because he’s warned his supporters that Democrats are preparing their “counter protests” and you know what that will mean: violence.

Of course, the left is expressing horror that the President of the United States is #threatening them, but it’s not like this is not warranted.

Trump supporters, for the most part find better ways to spend their time and could give a shit when Democrats hold rallies as we observe and respect their right to free speech. Here, however, are a few examples of how liberals “peacefully protest” when Republicans dare congregate.

Eight people were arrested at the Trump rally in Colorado Springs on Thursday, police said. Those arrested, on suspicion of failure to desist or disperse, were taken to the El Paso County jail, where they were cited and released, according to police. The suspects “obstructed traffic,” according to police, at Venetucci Boulevard and Cheyenne Meadows Road, the roadway entrance and exit outside the Broadmoor World Arena, where President Donald Trump and Sen. Cory Gardner took the stage before a packed house.

“We wanted to send a very clear message to President Trump that our city is a City of peace that we are many communities coming together,” said Sara Stockmayo, of Bend the Arc Pittsburgh. “We are not willing to stand ideally by and do nothing. We feel we have voices and we have collective power, and we want to use our voices and power.” Around 9:30 a.m., Pittsburgh Police in riot gear moved in, telling the protesters to leave or be arrested. When the protest did not disperse, officers began taking the demonstrators into custody one-by-one. The Pittsburgh Public Safety Department said 14 were taken into custody after blocking the ramp from the Fort Pitt Bridge and refusing to move.

And of course, there was the biggie in Chicago where free speech was gleefully shut down…

With thousands of people already packed into stands and music blaring to warm up the crowd, Donald J. Trump’s campaign abruptly canceled his rally here on Friday night over security concerns as protesters clashed with his supporters inside an arena where he was to speak. Outside, a tense standoff mounted as well. A line stretched for blocks while ticketholders — a diverse mix of older whites wearing Trump gear and younger African-American and Muslim students — waited to be allowed inside. As people streamed out, supporters of Mr. Trump were angry and frustrated. But protesters were jubilant, and celebrated along the intersections on the city’s Near West Side. Some protesters shut down lanes of a nearby expressway. Arguments and small skirmishes broke out along the streets. At one point, the police rushed in, separating people.

In 2010, Bob created a video illustrating the difference between how conservatives protest and how liberals have always protested.

The difference is night and day.

Ten years later, the myth of “mostly peaceful” protests by the left will be repeated ad nauseam by the liberal media to provide cover for their Democrat hoodlums who are now feeling all #threatened because their documented propensity for violence is anticipated.
