Seeing the Chicago Rally with a fresh perspective:
On 9-11-01 most of the passengers in the commercial jets cooperated with terrorists. Why? Political correctness dictated that they do so. Who turned out to be right?
The passengers of United 93 -- this century's first stark example of patriotic courage.
At the Chicago rally most of the Trump supporters avoided confrontations. Who turned out to be right?
In that case there was NO WAY that any patriotic civilian could do the right thing. The law plays favorites against patriotism, especially in thuggish hellholes like Chicago.
So sure, a man could keep his pride and defend women and children from thuggish vulgarity and intimidation tactics, but true chivalry leads to prison, fines, and legal fees.
If he has children? His chivalry destroys their lives.
Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels: 'Whoever conquers the streets, conquers the state.'
Hitler sent his brown shirts out to the streets to demand submission to their politics.
Anti-patriots do the exact same thing. They send out their brown shirts to not only conquer the streets but to vulgarize and better yet -- suppress -- any political rally they are opposed to.
Trump had two choices:
1. A classic campaign that hides from the anti-patriots and look to Robot Romney as an exmple of how to avoid their temper tantrums.
2. A bold campaign that confronts anti-patriotism head-on.
Unlike Goebbels, Trump merely sought a chance to speak at his rallies, avoid lobbed tomatoes etc., and become an example of patriotic courage.
If anything, the Chicago Rally proved that Trump supporters are your typical law abiding citizens. A side of me is embarassed. They fled. They allowed themselves to be bullied.
Worst of all, I'm ashamed of myself. I had been part of that 'be civil and turn the cheek a hundred times' mantra. My attitute helped endanger the lives of those Trump supporters.
But then I remind myself that I'm not the problem. Our nation's Ruling Class and legal system are.
So patriots run away, hide, sometimes even grovel before the brown shirts while children watch. In the meantime never forget that being a Trump supporter is being a brown shirt, right?
Details of REAL brown shirt activity at the Chicago Rally ...

[First hand account and reaction by bushwon ...]
I cannot tell you how angry I was to hear that quote from Ted on the news when I had just returned from the Chicago Rally ...
... and those people, the 200 that ambushed our car, hated me ... screamed at me and pounded on our windows because I was White ... and I was exiting a parking garage next to a trump Rally...I had no bumper stickers, no buttons, and no beef with these rent-a-thugs ...
They believed they had a right to hate whether based in reality or not...just like protesters in Ferguson.
Ted, on the other hand, sought sanctuary in the safety of a suburban fundraiser, with $120+ dinners...
So easy for Ted to come out and make outrageous smug statements...he did not have the guts to hold an open, free rally in Chicago...and now he states it is Trump's fault that mobsters want to squash Trump's speech because it is not PC. Some 'Constitutionalist' coward Cruz is! Shame on Ted!!!!!!!!!

'Police say at least five people, including a CBS News Reporter were arrested [at the rally]. A Chicago police spokesman said Illinois State Police arrested CBS's Sopan Deb. CBS said 'In the midst of reporting on this event, CBS News' Sopan Deb was detained by law enforcement.'

In St. Louis this featured at least one man stomping a flag while wearing a '**** the police' t-shirt.
In Chicago there were many Mexican flags flown, including some being worn as clothing, among the crowd, panned across repeatedly on live TV. There were hoards of people who swarmed the parking garage, smashing car windows. And who else was there, probably instigating it all?
Former leader of the Weather Underground (that's a domestic terrorist organization that actually set off bombs at the Capitol, the Department of State and the Pentagon along with blowing up a statue in Chicago and committing arson in New York City) Bill Ayres.
Obama literally began his political career in Ayres living room. [links provided at the article].

Right. I feel ashamed of being overly concerned about a single troublemaker getting punched.
‘Multi national business gloBULList Cheap Labor Express types shouldn’t have place in any political party. The corruption factor is way too high.’
A lot packed in there. Yes. It’s obvious. Foreign influences are bound to corrupt leaders of the richest nation on earth.
Only vigilance can purge that corruption periodically until we return to limited govenrment.
‘I would never begin to judge someone in their last minutes when they know absolutely they will die a horrific death ...’
I think that a post-battle analysis is helpful not to judge people but to understand how enemy victories occur.
‘As a peasant, you could be prosecuted for interfering with a hijacking.’
Well said. When it comes to self-defense and personal initiative, few other places in the US treat peace-loving people like peasants than an airline business. Of course, it is a unique environment.
Back to ‘conquering the streets ...’
I don’t know about other peoples’ areas, but I hardly see any Trump signs yet, and this is post-prez-primary here in Virginia.
*We haven’t even conquered our own yards yet.*
Well, excuse the hell out of me, Mr. Self-Righteous. I wasn’t judging anyone, except to express admiration for their bravery, and I’m not sure just what you mean by “parse” in this context. It was and is my opinion, expressed as an opinion, that patriotism would not have been their primary motivation. If you have any firsthand information to the contrary, please tell all of us.
And what’s this “armchair hero” crap? Did I say anything at all about what I would have done in that situation?
I greatly enjoy Black Adder, and British comedy in general :)
Ever read Terry Pratchett?

In light of recent news, many brilliant scholars are beginning to sound like idiots.
‘Ever read Terry Pratchett?’
Know, but I read a serious book by a Canadian who has keen British humor. “Shark Gods” was in the title.
Wonderful wit. Quite a read. He’s a homosexual by the way. But desperate for spiritual answers.

Sorry, I don’t see the relevance of any of that to my comment 45.
