Thousands of supporters turned out Thursday as Donald Trump brought his campaign to Southern California, predictably sparking shouting matches with counter-demonstrators.
Heated words were exchanged after people wearing expletive-laden anti-Trump shirts began to taunt people waiting in line to attend Trump's evening speech in an amphitheater at the Orange County Fairgrounds.
Trump supporters surrounded the demonstrators and shouted "Build that wall! Build that wall!" — a reference to Trump's call to create a barrier between the United States and Mexico to stop illegal border crossers.
Later, county sheriff's deputies in riot gear and on horseback formed a barrier between a small group of anti-Trump demonstrators and the jeering Trump crowd, whose attention was then diverted by a group of seven topless young women who wore only stickers to cover their breasts. They also had slogans such as "Dump Trump" and "Gender Equality" written in marker on their midriffs.
There were no arrests and no repeat of a confrontation two days earlier outside Anaheim City Hall where an anti-Trump protester pepper-sprayed five people, including two young girls. Nobody was seriously injured in the incident, and police did not immediately make an arrest.
Trump, fresh off a sweep of five Northeastern primaries, is courting California voters hoping to lock up the Republican nomination with the state's June 7 primary.

Yeah the protestors are out in full force but they are outside, as long as they remain outside then everyone inside will be safe..the Bernie brown shirts are always out looking for trouble

ROTFLMAO
30,000. But what's a few grand between friends :)
Most hated? Well if Boehner is correct Cruz’s real name is Applegate, and he wants to give some middle-aged guy a chance to be a baseball star.
..... It’s CRUNCH time now ...... People are now coming out in droves. Exits are all plugged ...... People need to get home .... Tempers will be flaring!!
Guy in 2nd row in purple shirt and glasses is asleep?
1: Deport 60 million illegal aliens
2: Hold Nuremberg style trials for all the traitors and anti-American scumbags in DC
The newscaster keeps saying that the anti-Trump crowd (the ones waving the Mexican flag) is peaceful. Except for a few dozen people getting in people’s faces and jumping on cars...
If one person that is a Trump supporter did anything similar they would say the crowd was out of control.
‘Trump supporters surrounded the demonstrators and shouted “Build that wall! Build that wall!”’
I feel this thrill running up my leg. They need to get a chant/wave going in the stadium.....”Deport them now! Deport them now!”
Typically lying media. All the more reason we nwed to be able to sue them for thier lies.
This is not a peaceful demonstration. Be surprising if this is reported in any of the media tomorrow.
I won’t be holding my breath.
If there are no pictures, it didn't happen.
Ted Cruz is the most hated man in America. Most folks here would rather have e coli than even consider voting for him. <<<
I agree with your sentiments 100%, but for the record, All people HAVE ecoli...it’s merely contained where it belongs...
I liked your analogy, it made me chuckle.
Can't really tell. Speaking of 'tells', know what it means when people have their arms crossed ?
Does Ted Cruz Photoshop out his fat neck in campaign photos? I never realized it was so fat.
