Activists marched illegally down streets, fought with one another and defied a downtown tennis ball ban Tuesday during the second day of the Republican National Convention. But as the excitement unfolded, some activist leaders wondered where the crowds were.
Cleveland has seen far smaller protests than those at other recent conventions, despite the nomination of Donald Trump eliciting a rage from progressives that rivals or exceeds their hatred of former President George W. Bush. In a further distinction, it has also seen very few activism-related arrests.
“Look, I’ll say this: It’s not a good thing people aren’t here in a bigger force when an openly fascistic candidate is being nominated,” says Noche Diaz, who served as spokesman for the day’s highest profile march, which promoted revolutionary communism and the jailing of “killer cops.”
“Why? I don’t know all the reasons, you’ll have to ask them,” Diaz said after the hourlong march by about two dozen protesters, a greater number of reporters and likely even more law enforcement officers, who rode bicycles alongside and behind the group.
“Slavery, genocide and war, America was never great!” the group chanted as they walked past Republican convention-goers, one of whom shouted that they should consider moving to another country.

Another sign Trump could be headed for a landslide?
The leftist elites (e.g., Soros), understand that a massive riot in Cleveland, coming on the heels of the BLM war on white cops, would be a propaganda victory for Trump, so they pulled the plug.
Too bad.
Another sign Trump could be headed for a landslide?

By October Trump will look like he is running unopposed.
Looks like Bernies children were a good source of action, organization and cash from Soros. They’re all disenfranchised now disillusioned because their socialist leader turned out to be a fraud and easily bought out.
and the bastards have worn out their welcome.
Media is sad. They hyped these potential protests for weeks! I do think a combination of the police doing a great job and armed citizens helped. Aren’t the bikers there? Can’t see the leftists messing the bikers.
There’s the answer to the question, “Why aren’t there more people out there?”
They kinda like Trump.
Oh the huge manatees...
Hillary is headed for a good old fashion ass whippin’.
There is, to be sure, a popular impetus for overthrowing the present system, but its activists are all inside the convention center, not outside.
Well there’s always Philadelphia coming up next on the docket. No need to panic, plenty of time then to go ‘revolution’. eheheheheh.
prayer
Franklin Graham, on Facebook, was calling for praying people to bathe this week in prayer.
God hears
also all those open carry Ohioans?
The plan to shut down both conventions was leaked out. With advance notice, that plan is much less likely to succeed or be viewed favorably by the public.
and perhaps the Bikers for Trump. . .
Ha ha, more reporters than protestors, how pitiful is that???
Exactly! They heard the bikers were going to be there and were afraid they would face some real opposition. Wussies.
Some of the potential protesters with three or four functioning brain cells might have realized that with all the murders of policemen, their ‘cause’ was viewed more and more negatively by much of the public. And their protests are helping Trump.
