Homeland Security Prepares For Violence At Republican Convention
Zero Hedge ^ | 7-14-16 | Tyleer Durden

Posted on 07/14/2016 6:33:37 PM PDT by dynachrome

Following yesterday's stark warning by the militant "black power" organization, the New Black Panther Party, which warned it would arrive in Cleveland packing firearms for self-defense ahead of the republican convention, we were curious how long it would take the various US authorities to admit that the upcoming Republican and Democratic conventions will be ground zero for the next round in escalating US violence. The answer, it turned out, was just about 24 hours.

Earlier today, Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson and FBI Director James Comey told lawmakers, that they are preparing their agencies for the "possibility of violence, both from unruly demonstrators and terrorists", at the upcoming Republican and Democratic nominating conventions.

In what could end up being a self-fulfilling prophecy, Jeh Johnson, speaking before the House Homeland Security Committee, said he was concerned that demonstrations at the events could get out of hand.

"I am concerned about the prospect of demonstrations getting out of hand," Johnson told members of the House Homeland Security Committee at a hearing on terrorist threats. "I am concerned about the possibility of violence."

I agree that’s more appropriate.

>> “possibility of violence, both from unruly demonstrators and terrorists”<<

What they should have said is:

“possibility of violence, both from unruly terrorist demonstrators”

THAT is the headline that should be, and the actual truth. Trump and the RNC, in tomorrow's press conference, should DEMAND Cleveland's mayor not order the police to stand down and, instead, to actually protect the Convention's participants.

..........I think they need a few regiments of marines on standby in Cleveland because I don’t think some of our PC police forces can handle an all out street fight or ISIS attack.

Hope I’m wrong.

Is Obama this stupid? Violence against Republicans equals more votes for Trump as already demonstrated.

If Obama wants Trump to lose, then he’s texting BLM & the Black Panthers, “Cool it, you guys!”

I’m worried about Trump’s safety. I’m afraid there has been too much infiltration.

I’m sure Jeh (what a joke) and Comey have this all figured out. When the violence starts simply arrest the agitators, Trump and Pence. That way no black lies matter pukes will get hurt or offended.

Why don’t the Friends of Bill and Islam Watch Lists guarantee that there will be no problems?

"I am concerned about the possibility of violence."

"...and I intend to act decisively by punishing Trump supporters if they get out of hand."

I imagine BLM, the communists and the Nazis are going to be there raising holy hell. I wonder how much Soros will be paying them per hour.

Thank you to Barack Obama and Loretta Lynch, coordinating the violence with BLM and others.

“Concerned”? I doubt it.

More like hoping I would say.

Spot on. The murder of five Dallas police officers, BLM's bully tactics, Dear Leader's inability to say the words 'Islamic terrorism', etc., are all adding up to more votes for Trump. Ain't fundamental transformation grand?
