Pro-Trump march in Huntington Beach expected to draw thousands, including protesters

The organizers of the Make America Great Again march and rally, Saturday, at Bolsa Chica State Beach are crossing their fingers and hoping for a peaceful event.

The march – in support of the president, military, first responders and certain causes – is being billed as a kid-friendly family-oriented event. But it takes place in climate where stark divisions in the public have led to a number of high-profile confrontations when supporters and detractors of the president collide.

March organizer Jennifer Sterling said she expects at least 3,000 participants many of whom, she says, will be women, children and elderly. “I really hope these people are safe,” she said

The event that coincides with a nationwide effort the same day in more than 30 states and Washington, D.C. Although the title of the march carries President Donald Trump’s campaign slogan, Sterling said it was more about patriotism and appreciation for those who serve.

“I won’t be there tomorrow. Those big crowd things are too intense for my old bones. However, barring health problems with my wife or me, I will do my best to attend the May 18 Larry Schweikart event in Los Alamitos.”

I am not going tomorrow either. Working.

The LS event looks interesting. His reports have been informative.

If protesters show up, fine. Long as they behave themselves. The minute they start with the violence it's time the gloves should come off and for once and GD all put an end to this. “The right to swing your fist ends at the point of another persons nose’’ said Ben Franklin. Anti-Trump protesters have been getting away with bloody murder and no one, NOT ONE police agency or prosecutor anywhere has put one of these little Brownshirts behind bars for the violence they have committed. In the recent incident one of the little thugs pepper spayed an elderly man. Had that gentleman suffered cardiac arrest and died it would have been manslaughter, a life would have been taken and in my opinion that would have crossed the Rubicon. It's apparently open season now on anyone wearing a "Make America Great Again''. The courts do nothing about the assaults against Trump supporters. Their silence is tacit approval. Time to start fighting back. Nothing stops a bully more than that bully knowing his victim is now going to start fighting back and hard. We're at war. The Left is more than willing to create complete social unrest to bring about a situation it feels will bring down President Trump and they will use violence to do it.

“Violent actors’’? Like whom? Alec Baldwin?
