I was just watching the Trump Chicago rally. A guy came on the stage and said that for "safety reasons", the rally was being postponed (NFI). There was a huge crowd there waiting to hear Trump.
I'm guessing there was a credible threat made of some type.
Free speech stifled. Go figure.

Kudos to the Chicago police in keeping a lid on it, for the most part.
Ask the GOPe....they are desperate.
I’m sorry to hear this. It shouldn’t be happening.
Thank you both for your supportive responses. Out of many, one.
Gope and Mitt Romney sponsored?
He’s doing great on CNN. They want him to apologize for some of his language about protesters. He says no.
Cops are cops, everywhere. Do your job, keep the peace, go home and hug the babies at the end of the shift. Regardless of what a few bad apples do that get all of the publicity.

Sorry about that.”

Your link goes to a private video on an unknown Youtube account. Do you have another source and a working link? Thanks.
So I guess we can go with another milquetoast candidate like Cruz. I’d rather have a guy who pisses off protesters then a guy like Cruz who kissed the Muslims butt last night.
Actually trump just set the nerativr for the next 48 hours. No room for Cruz Rubio or Kasick. Trump voters won’t turn and the media will say how horrible trump is like they have been for months. Win win for trump again.
UH, we don’t need you to tell us about violent confrontation. People at Trump rallies are good and nice people.
The disruptors are not.
No matter who gets the nomination, do not fool yourself into believing that this kind of chaos won’t happen if it isn’t Trump.
Because it was planned a long time ago to disrupt the convention just like this. Only worse.
If this is true, he needs to be fired. Using a situation like this to grab support for Cruz would be a new low for that campaign. Cruz has to denounce any such maneuver.
is this the cruz who sent the fake violations, said carson was dropping out, plays holier than thou?
I never said anything about choosing another candidate to make people behave better, but as I've proven before you have a history of lying deliberately on this forum.
Trump and his supporters shouldn't have celebrated some guy sucker punching a protestor at his rally yesterday. It was a dumb move and I was 100% correct to say that it was going to escalate. That doesn't excuse these idiots, it just proves that violence begets violence. The barn door's open now, there's going to be violence the rest of the way. And the people who celebrated it yesterday are going to be crying about it tomorrow.
If it’s Neil Bush, it’s the Bush younger brother who Cruz just put on his campaign staff
Many are, but the guy who sucker punched a protestor at a Trump rally yesterday should not have been cheered by other Trump supporters. Violence as a response to speech is the wrong way to go. It will only get worse from here on out.
Maybe not. I admit I was worried about this on trumps campaign but once again the brilliant man is on all the news station not apologizing for what he believes and making it positive. I think he wins again.
It's important to set the nerativr.
