On Friday, March 11, an event occurred in Chicago that reminded me of violent clashes between Nazis and Communists during the waning years of the Weimar Republic in Germany. GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump canceled a scheduled speech at an event to be held in the Windy City, where a sizable crowd of left-wing students and Black Lives Matter activists clashed with Trump’s supporters. Telecasts showed that in addition to screams of “Hitler!” and other face-to-face confrontations, punches were thrown and a few landed.
Although Chicago police did their best to prevent bloodshed, the anti-Trumpeteers succeeded in preventing people from hearing what the Donald might have had to say.
Trump’s free political speech was trashed. It remains to be seen if the anti-Trumpeteers’ tactic will be repeated. After the Chicago rally was cancelled, the Soros-funded MoveOn.org blog hailed the leftists’ success, and seemed to call for more such outbursts. When Trump was speaking at an event at Dayton Airport the next day, a far-left punk rushed the podium, and only quick action by Secret Service agents kept him from reaching Trump.

The left will be in full display for a while.
Can we please start calling the LEFTISTS instead of the misapplied word of "liberal"?
They are LEFTIST FASCISTS.
George Soros is a nasty, greedy SOB who makes his money by scaring people.
Marxists is even better. I’d call em “commies” but they love to pretend communism died with the cold war, and then wriggle around by saying they are socialists, not communists. “Marxist” doesn’t give them any wiggle room.
Hillary Clinton’s only child, Chelsea, had her wedding at a Soros estate.
Marxist works for me except there are more literal meanings and distinctions between socialism (the government distributes your money to certain chosen industries) and communism (the government RUNS the industries).
“Leftist” covers them all.
Thank you.
Nothing “liberal” about them.
The Founders were true political liberals, and modern Conservatives represent them.
Modern “liberals” are nothing but violent Statists, which means they want to regress to feudalist oppression.
IOW “fascists”.
Agree. We need to stop using the words ‘liberal’ and ‘progressive’. (What were you thinking Beck?)
We should call them leftists or national socialists. Maybe Neo-socialists.
