Matthews on New Mexico Trump Protesters: ‘I Don’t Think They’re That Violent’
Breitbart ^ | 24 May 2016 | Ian Hanchett

Posted on 05/25/2016 4:56:01 AM PDT by detective

On Wednesday, MSNBC’s “Hardball” host Chris Matthews stated of the unrest outside presumptive GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump’s rally in New Mexico, “I don’t think they’re that violent.”

Matthews said, while talking to Albuquerque Police Officer Tanner Tixier “I don’t see violence yet. I did see that police car with the windshield smashed. I’ve heard about other incidents of violence — low-key violence so far.”

A great example of why the media has a SIX PERCENT trust factor with the public.

Ask Chris: “When is the last time you saw (or even HEARD of) Conservative groups behaving like that?”

He’s a complete loon. He makes no sense and yet he mocks Trump.

This looked, by far, the most violent of all the riots. And those Mexican flags!

The governor is a moron, too.

Unlike the TEA party, labelled as violent for no violence.

Now we have the “low-key” violence threshold for the left to cross before being labelled as violent.

“Low-key” violence now entails only “several” police officers being injured.

“Albuquerque police said on Twitter late Tuesday that “several” officers were being treated for injuries as a result of being hit by rocks.”

If I were a taxpayer there, I’d like them all rounded up and thrown in jail and left there until their mom and dads cough up the money for the damages from the “non-violence”.

Oh, so "low key violence" - is that like "well, it wasn't rape rape?"

Tell you what Chrissy dear, let's smash the windshield of one of your cars, have a mob generally trash your place, maybe fire off a few rounds. See if after experiencing it first hand you think it is "low key violence."

Does anyone know, does Chrissy-boy there get paid a lot? Just wondering what the going rate is for a liberal mouthpiece's self-respect and integrity. 'cause this guy sure comes off as a complete a**-hat.

It was "low key violence", and it was probably committed by "white hispanics" anyway...

God, I hate the left.

So, the Patriots who protested in the abandoned center in the woods are looking at decades in jail although they never even threatened to hurt anyone or damage anything. These people riot in the street causing substantial damage and threatening physical harm yet suffer no consequences.

You haven’t got the memo?

Every since the LA riots, the answer is “When the Left does it, it isn’t violence.”

Getting hit in the head with a rock can cause a very, very serious injury. When the pendulum swings back after this January, I expect the police to fight back under conditions like this and “explain” to these punks that violence is not acceptable. When enough of them have a good “explaining to”...the violence will end.

Chrissy, put a Hillary bumper sticker on your car and attend the convention. Let’s see if they don’t seem violent then when your car is surrounded.

Well yeah. You don’t see the difference? The folks in the city are being “low key”(?) violent for “just-us”. The ones in the middle of NFW are only looking to protect what they think are their constitutional righ.................. Oh, never mind.

Shoot, that’s what I get for not reading all comments first.
