"Even one of Trump’s rallies is being targeted over public safety fears. On Wednesday Greg Stanton, the mayor of Phoenix, Arizona, called on Trump to cancel his upcoming campaign rally in the city “as our nation is still healing from the tragic events in Charlottesville.”

I am already healed. They are just trying to stifle free speech.

There wouldn’t have been any violence in Chancellorsville if the anarchists and their fellow travelers hadn’t shown up.

I'm sure the people of Phoenix, Arizona will never recover from that calamity. /sarcasm off/

American’s derive their freedoms from their creator. Anyone that uses force to deprive them of these rights, is evil.

I doubt that they can legally do that.

known for an image of him hitting an anti-fascist counterprotest with a stick that went viral online.

People who write for a living should be able to compose a coherent sentence. How did he manage to get that stick to go viral? Would it fit onto the internet?

When I was in the 10th Grade, I hadn't finished my homework for English class. Just before class was to start, I was frantically flipping through my textbook in search of the homework questions.

I turned to a page in a chapter we hadn't covered yet. It was a list of examples of misplaced phrases like the above. The exercise was to rewrite them so they were coherent.

I still remember one: We saw a great deal of farm country riding along in our car. (didn't know anybody's vehicle needed a good interior cleaning as much as mine.)

After reading a whole series of these, I was laughing so hard that not only did I fail to get my homework finished, but the teacher walked in and when I couldn't quiet down, she sent me to the dean's office.

It's clear the Left's tactics to shutting down any form of disagreement have changed.

Instead of screaming, banging on doors, breaking windows and beating up people for which the Left is roundly condemned by normal Americans, they've been able to convince municipal authorities and other elected representatives to:

Step 1: Issue a permit for a patriotic American group to hold a rally in the name of "free speech" and "tolerance"
Step 2: A few days later issue a permit for a Leftist group to hold a rally in the same local area and on the same day as the normal peoples' rally
Step 3: Publicly announce grave concerns with the likelihood of violence at the competing rallies
Step 4: In the name of "public safety" rescind the patriotic American's group permit.

The result is a glorious victory for the Leftist thugs who will have not only stopped the Right from speaking, they will be subsequently praised 24/7 by the Left, fake-news media for their wisdom in preventing violence.

So, what's the high-hard counterpunch to this new intolerance?

Which “hard right” groups was present in Charlottesville?

Antifa, BLM, KKK, Nazi, etc. are all hard left.

How about arresting and jailing anti=trump protesters who don’t have demonstration permits.

This kind of action is giving in to the “Heckler’s Veto” - which is DISGRACEFUL.

Some federal court will overturn this (although I wouldn’t hold my breath for the 9th Circus to do that).

Don”t shut them down, press charges on any officials that allow peaceful protest to go hot.
McCallauf should be indicted for conspiring to spark violence in Chicago as well as others of course.

Where is Sessions? He is cowering behind the fear of being labled a racist.
