The protest group spilled out into the streets and blocked traffic in several intersections.

Trumps poll numbers just went up 10 points in California and the rest of the US for that matter. People who harm other people and try to take away their right to free speech should be embarrassed and shamed non-stop.

Think they have to shut down 10, 10:30 at that venue.
I’m sure they’ll be the usual idiot protesters causing problems.
Local news showed a lot of police force so think they’re well prepared for the scum.

-—that the media will cover the protestors instead of the actual event,

I’ll hold my breath and see if they apply the same standard when Hillary holds her rallies and keeps the Bern-Outs behind a cage 2 blocks away...

Yeah I was watching that on the Fox News Channel Hannity hour and when the guy who the murdering illegal alien killed his son was talking Hannity went on a break

Guess Hannity didn’t think it was important enough to wait a minute or two until that guy was finished telling how horrible our system treats citizens by enabling
Insurgent illegal alien criminals who break the law over and over again to keep them around to kill more Americans

Sorry about sentence composition I’m typing on my stupid smart phone

That’s a narrative they can’t allow to be spread. Whenever Trump talks about TPP the media immediately cuts his feed as well.

Watching this for the past hour or so and I’ve had a moment of clarity.

Haven’t posted here in quite a while...but back in the day, I was one of the founding members of Save Our State in California.

These are the same people that counter protested us...in Baldwin Park, at the Home Depot slave labor spots.

They didn’t like us because we spoke nothing but truth, and we weren’t racist punks.

We spoke the truth, they couldn’t fight it logically.....so they countered us with the Brown Berets, fake Nazi group supporters...

Trump’s speaking truth that they can’t fight. So the ugly comes out. It’s the left’s only recourse to common sense and truth.

Guess I know who I’m voting for as of tonite.

I did not see any protesters but five minutes after I left the a-holes blocked the 55 freeway entrance frm Fair Drive.

Three protesters ejected inside, two well before Trump started to speak. Only one thrown out during his speech.

“The usual rent a mob that the left puts together”

These were latino thugs waving Mexican flags. And most likely some anarchists and communists, the usual professional criminals.

The last thing they worry about is deportation. Both Dubya and Obama tried to give them amnesty. These thugs hold authorities in contempt. Anarchy and lawlessness is the traditional Mexican attitude as the rest of the country will eventually learn.

Funny, isn’t it, how See BS calls protecting and securing our country’s borders is “controversial.”
