Update: Joan Walsh response to this blog post is featured below.

Outside of a Trump rally Tuesday night in Albuquerque New Mexico, anti-Trump protesters showed up and became violent, throwing rocks, smashing doors, jumping on cop cars and setting Trump flags on fire. For a couple of hours, police tried to control the protesters and find a way to let the hundreds of people who attended the rally, trapped inside, out safely. An NBC reporter was even knocked down off camera as he reported on the scene. Yet his colleagues at sister network MSNBC were less than shocked by the protesters actions, in fact they seemed congratulatory, praising them for their actions and rationalizing their violence.

Throughout the late night coverage of the protest, Chris Matthews talked with several MSNBC contributors who said a number of shocking things, actually defending the violence....

Humanity can often be an ugly thing, however. The left worships every aspect of human imperfection.

How long until good people have to take a baseball bat to bad people like Chris Matthews?

They keep it up and I guarantee at some point that's coming.

Of course they defended it they are the ones that ORDERED IT..can’t wait for these same goons to show up at the DNC Convention demanding Bernie Sanders be the nominee, and when he doesn’t get the nom, they will riot and I will sit back with a BIG bag of popcorn, hoping they kill each other

The left is becoming increasingly violent and thuggish.
This will not end well.
We just wanted to be left alone.

So but if conservatives went out stomping on cop cars that’d be okay too? Oh, wait, we don’t do stuff like that because we’re too busy working for a living supporting our families.

With any luck the bad people will do it first as the bad eventually take things out on other bad people.

Isn’t it interesting that the people who are often least capable of any type of violence due to their meager muscles, age, decrepitude, whatever, are often the biggest fans of its use by other people, particularly if it furthers their political aims? I’m not sure this does, but the MSNBC types of this world are the Pauline Kael types, who didn’t think it was possible for McGovern to lose to Nixon since “just everyone I know is voting for him”.

Dear Chrissy: just continue running your mouth. More votes for Trump that way.

You forgot to mention we are supporting the protesters and their families as well.

The left has always used violence to get what they want.

The only time they don’t use violence is when the right does not put up any resistance.

Their first line of attack is name calling and demonizing any individual they want to shut down. When that does not work, they physically go after them.

It does not appear to be working against Trump or his supporters, that only means they will up the violence.

There will be blood in the streets before this is over, and those on the left who are encouraging all this will have blood on their hands.

It’s interesting how the Clinton campaign encourages anti-Trump “demonstrations” the campaign’s hangers-on give the violent thugs their full-throated support. Then they turn around and condemn Trump for causing violence. Aren’t those who encourages the “demonstrations” and support the thugs, the ones who are actually encouraging violence?

Well I guess I could have said that conservatives work so that those on welfare won’t have to.
