Trump supporters were 'running for their lives' after San Jose rally, police report says

Two undercover police officers at a Donald Trump rally last week said they saw Trump supporters "get punched, kicked and pushed" and "running for their lives," according to a police report.

The plainclothes officers said they did not intervene for fear their own safety would be jeopardized as the estimated 400 protesters developed a "mob mentality."

The officers' observations were included in the arrest report of Antonio Moses Fernandez, 19, of San Jose, who is accused of throwing a metal barrier into a police skirmish line following the Trump rally June 2 outside the San Jose Convention Center. Fernandez made his first court appearance Tuesday and was charged with felony assault on a peace officer with a deadly weapon and misdemeanor resisting, delaying or obstructing an officer, according to court documents.

It’s worse than that.

I learned during a hot Los Angeles summer week in 1992 that “When seconds count, the police aren’t coming.”

It hasn’t gotten better since.

If the liberals try to shut down the Republican convention in July, I wouldn’t be surprised if there was a death toll.

It is tolerated because they’ve literally wrapped themselves in the figurative cloak of love, peace, tolerance, civility.
That’s how the left can call anyone who disagrees with them haters, all debate as uncivil.
The irony is their now literal violence in the name of fighting intolerant, how they hate the haters and are moving from hate mobs online to cost you your job to attacking people.
See recent attacks on Milo Yianapolis on his dangerous faggot tour, one recently where the college made him pay for extra security and then told security to stand down as SJWs stormed the stage and threatened the speaker.
Ben Shapiro events go from shouted down to alarms pulled to roughhousing by liberals of conservatives such that security has to sneak the audience in two at a time.
Laura Southern having pee poured on her head while she’s on camera, because she is critical of liberalism and feminism.

When someone says only the police should have weapons, and then the police don’t bother to protect politically incorrect groups, you officially have tyranny.

This is the same reason Shariah law in Islam said non-Muslims can’t own weapons and officials didn’t care about the occasional pogrom - it was punishment for not belonging to the right ideology and pressure for the survivors to convert.

So far Fernandez is the only person to be criminally charged stemming from the violence that erupted outside Trump's rally last week. Three other people were also arrested...

That would be the guy who went after the cop. Score so far for citizens being beat up is a big fat goose-egg and now the 250 eye-witnesses to the assault are calling for other people to provide them some evidence. And the fine journalists at the Mercury-News are just fine with the whole thing. Hillary and the Feds are laughing about it. This is what Nazi Germany was like for the Jews.

Let’s see these animals try something similar in a shall issue state. Like Texas, for example. It won’t end so well for them.

I hope that there will be charges brought against the persons/organizations who paid these thugs to show up. Maybe the prosecutor could consider it; maybe someone on a defense team trying to get a better deal for a client could reveal some details.

You have described liberal fascism to a “T.”

And the historical evolution is set forth here. These liberal fascist are nothing new, they were the scourge of Europe in the 1920s onward:

It’s time to send in the WOLF!

Capt Lone Wolf Gonzaullas would not have stood down, he cut the trigger guards off his pistols because they got in the way during a fight.

Incorrect. That was from Conan - Arnie at his best, NOT Genghis Khan.

An estimated 400 protesters developed a "mob mentality" undercover officers' observations noted......their obervations were included in the arrest report of Antonio Moses Fernandez, 19, San Jose, who is accused of throwing a metal barrier into a police skirmish line following the Trump rally.

Fernandez made his first court appearance Tuesday and was charged with felony assault on a peace officer with a deadly weapon and misdemeanor resisting, delaying or obstructing an officer, according to court documents.

===============================================

Fernandez should be charged as a domestic terrorist under the Patriot Act.

"Section 802 of the P/A defines a domestic terrorist as one who engages (or who aids and abets) in violent activity in order to affect political change" (proof positive---the THUGGERY revolved around a political event).

"Domestic terrorists can also be stripped of their citizenship and sent to spend the rest of their lives in in foreign rendition prisons.”

Exhibiting belligerence to US laws, to L/E officers, and our nation's political system will not be tolerated....that goes for Sheriff Garcia AND Mayor Liccardo, as well.
