ABC on Violence by Anti-Trump Protesters: ‘These Were Pure Attacks’
freebeacon. ^ | June 3, 2016 | Jack Heretik

ABC’s Good Morning America covered the violence that erupted outside of Donald Trump’s rally in San Jose, California Thursday as “pure attacks” where “even the elderly” walked into a dangerous environment.

When Trump’s supporters attempted to leave the rally, they were greeted by large crowds of protesters who used it as an opportunity to physically attack the Trump supporters.

ABC correspondent Tom Llamas was there and covered the chaos, calling it “one of the most violent scenes” he’d ever seen at a Trump rally and saying the police seemed to lose control of the situation.

People were getting beat up right in front of them, and these were not clashes. These were pure attacks. Trump supporters, men, women, even the elderly left this building last night and walked right into danger,” Llamas reported. “Overnight, all-out brawls outside the Trump rally in San Jose, California. Trump supporters harassed, beaten and bloodied by mobs of protesters.”

In one clip, Llamas shows a young man running for his life, being tackled and running again as Llamas had to point him to police.

“Now there were some peaceful demonstrators last night, but many of the people we saw were young men and young women who were here to do only one thing which is to throw punches and on more than one occasion, we did see young people throwing up gang signs in those mobs of protesters,” Llamas said.

Trump needs to appoint another Joe McCarthy.

Donald Trump Calls ABC’s Tom Llamas “A Sleaze,” “You Know The Facts”

At a press conference at Trump Tower in NYC, where Trump was providing the press with a breakdown of how the funds he raised for veterans were distributed, Donald Trump called out an ABC News reporter for questioning his committment to the cause.

“What I don’t want, is when I raise millions of dollars [for charity], is to have this sleazy guy from ABC, this sleaze — You’re a sleaze because you know the facts and you know the facts well,” Trump said, implying that he was intentionally misreporting facts that he knew.

“I don’t want the credit for it but I don’t want to be lambasted,” Trump said about his donations.

The video of Trump’s full combative press conference at Trump Tower is highly recommended:

Maybe Llamas doesn’t want to be called out again. He got caught in the act of deamonizing Jaunita to benefit the Clintons. And obviously does NOT want to be called out again for yellow journalism.

Perhaps you misinterpret the intended meaning of “pure” in this context. I think ABC is telling its audience that the attacks were justified by Trump’s divisive rhetoric and calls for violence.

-- If the Trump supporters defend themselves, will they be the ones suppressed and arrested by the police? --

More likely than not, and the press will say, "See, we told you Trump was encouraging violence at his rallies."

Massive double standard, and it is a serious issue.

Easy to see from the pics they are la raza MEXICANS, no assimilation nomads. Everyone scared to say it? Just calling them protestors, ignoring the big elephant in the room: USA HAS AN ILLEGAL ALIEN PROBLEM. They are violent rioters who are Mexican thugs. Here for the welfare benefits! Caught up in la raza propaganda lie about taking back USA. In any case, a great campaign ad for Trump as people in California hate la raza and they are just displaying why they are HATED.

Send the violent Mexican Patriots back to Mexico. Deport.

The roving mobs during the DNC 2000 in Los Angeles absorbed pepper spray showers relatively well, the pepper balls shot by police were rather effective shooting out a CNN camera live on television (standing in the zone that police instructed all press to gather in not five minutes before they started shooting that zone.)

This was in response to a plastic bottle hitting Billy's car which they parked in front of the mob (on the other side of a 12 foot fence.)

Americans have a right to defend themselves. You do not have to accept a beating from ANYONE. If “the Law” and the Media want to strip us of that right then let the revolution begin in earnest.
