It Is ILLEGAL To Protest At Campaign Rallies (H.R. 347, Signed by Obama Feb. 2012)
GovTrack.US ^ | 3/13/2016 | USConservative

According to H.R. 347 (signed into law by Barack Hussein Obama in February, 2012) it is ILLEGAL under CURRENT FEDERAL to protest of any type, in an area under protection by the U.S. Secret Service.

Because Donald Trump is under Secret Service Protection (as is Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders) and has been since November of 2015, it is a FEDERAL CRIME to protest at campaign rallies, and is in fact, punishable by imprisonment.

Free Speech isn't covered at ANY Trump, Clinton, Sanders (or Cruz, Rubio, Kasich) rally because protests are considered to be "knowingly impeding or disrupting the orderly conduct of an official Federal function."

Until Donald Trump's Secret Service protection is revoked, Trump can legally kick protesters out of his rallies no matter what they do.

Read it and weep, libs. Your "President" signed it. He did it to protect himself at his own rallies in 2012. Now it comes back to haunt the Democrats and they don't like it.

Trump shouldn't just kick the protesters out, he should demand they are prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

BLM committed a FELONY last night and should be charged with such.

Thank Obama for this one Libs. He did this to protect himself in the 2012 election cycle and now this gets to bite him and the rest of the libtards right in the ass.

Trump, PLEASE DEMAND FUTURE PROTESTERS BE ARRESTED AND CHARGED PER FEDERAL LAW!

So little Tommy Whatzisname could do time, maybe become Bubba’s lil b!tc#? He’ll wish he’d succeeded in his ‘suicide by Secret Service’ venture.

Yep, especially if Trump demands he be charged and prosecuted (which Trump should do!)

I remember this now. This law was to be able to prosecute conservatives and TEA partiers not anyone on the left.

Link to legislation Obama signed making it a Federal Crime to protest at (his) campaign rallies.

Note: This law was NEVER repealed. It is in full force today and Donald Trump should demand that those who protested in Chicago that were arrested be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

I wonder if there is any tracking of these professionals who may be arrested in more than one jurisdiction. It would seem sentences would be longer for repeat violations.

Scratch that: A PUBLIC University is not private property. The University of Illinois is paid for with TAXPAYER DOLLARS, specifically MINE as I live in Illinois.

I want these lawless, worthless BLM pieces of excrement prosecuted under the fullest extent of the law.

If this is true, don't hold your breath waiting for the feds to prosecute anyone protesting a Republican campaign rally.

This would only apply to anyone protesting a dem rally.

I remember this now.

Yes indeed! Democrats passed it (with some Republican support) and Obama signed it to protect himself at his own rallies after passing Obamacare. That was due to the public outrage.

Now WE get to use it against them!

C'mon Trump --- demand the PAID PROTESTERS that were arrested in Chicago, and that chucklehead in Ohio get prosecuted fully! Send the message that the LAW is coming back to America!!
