Inauguration Protester: ‘We’re Not in Favor of the Peaceful Transition of Power’
Washington Free Beacon ^ | 1/12/16 | Nick Bolger

A group set to protest the inauguration of President-elect Donald Trump is opposed to the peaceful transition of power, according to a video posted by the NTK Network on Thursday.

During what appeared to be a press conference with organizers of the protest, multiple panel members expressed their opposition to the peaceful transition of power.

One member of the audience began the discussion, asking, “How do you separate protesting the transfer of power versus protesting Donald Trump?”

One panel member confirmed the group was indeed protesting the peaceful transition of power.

“We do see ourselves as protesting the peaceful transition of power. We’re not in favor of the peaceful transition of power,” he said.

The protester quickly shifted his focus to attacking President Obama and Hillary Clinton.

“After the election, you saw this great upsurge in spontaneous anger in the streets and people protesting in cities all across the nation. You saw democratic luminaries from Obama to Hillary Clinton saying, ‘Tamp this down, please stop this; the peaceful transition of power is of the utmost importance to the core element of democracy,'” he said. “To me that says they value the continuity of the government over who runs the government, be it a fascist or not.”

A fellow panel member was quick to reiterate their opposition to a fundamental pillar of American democracy.

“We absolutely are opposed to the transition,” she said.

The protesters appeared to be organizers of the “Festival of Resistance: March Against Trump,” based on the fliers and signs behind them.

The libtards seem to truly not understand that its precisely this sort of behavior that caused the Democrats to lose 1,000+ elections during Obama’s term, and which directly led to the election of Donald Trump as President.

I guess by the time they figure it out, the Democrats will be a super minority from coast to coast.

Yep; these pics should tell the story about how I feel about these punks.

They had their chance to protest Trump on November 8th.

A significant percentage of the moonbat crowd that's now making so much noise, didn't even vote.

Now, that's a special kind of stupid.

The chain shot doesn’t help the historic symbolism.

I’m still discovering pockets.

This is the greatest coat I’ve ever owned.

“The dreadlocks and poncho crowd want DC weed. That’s all. “

The DC weed coalition is giving out around 8000 joints at DuPont Circle the morning of the inauguration. If the gangbangers don’t rob them first, that means a pretty significant number of docile protesters.

A whiff of grapeshot is what they need then.

“We’re not in favor of the peaceful transition of power.”

You prefer a coup?

I think that is against the law.

They need to be arrested and locked up.

This is far worse than Rush’s “I hope he fails” about Obama, but I doubt Democrats will condemn this at all.

I’m thinking a few swords used by both union and confederate soldiers. Then again, it’s late and I get this way when I need sleep

Unfortunately, the poor cops will have to try and keep the peace. I’m sure they would love to sit back and watch the Marxist idiots get a beating.

My best guess is that it rhymes with “Sorge Goros”

Whoever is caught disrupting the election should be put on a chain gang or sent to a hard labor prison camp for a year.

And if they don’t work, they don’t eat.

‘We’re Not in Favor of the Peaceful Transition of Power’ - Be careful what you ask for genius; it’s gonna happen - whether peaceful or otherwise. And you don’t want it “otherwise”...
