Conservative author and activist Michelle Malkin was brutally assaulted and prevented from speaking as she made her way to the speaker’s platform at a pro-police public rally in downtown Denver on Sunday. The patriotic event, the 6th Annual Law Enforcement Appreciation Day billed as “family friendly,” was advertised in advance on social media including at Malkin’s Twitter, where she has 2.2 million followers.
Malkin was live streaming the event from her cell phone on Periscope Sunday afternoon as the situation deteriorated after masked thugs wearing Black Lives Matter t-shirts assaulted two speakers and then set upon Malkin. A diminutive child of immigrants from the Philippines who legally moved to the U.S. in the late 1960s, Malkin, who was born in Philadelphia in 1970, describes herself as a “little brown woman” with a “big mouth.” Malkin linked to the entire 35 minute long Periscope video at her Twitter.
On the video, which had been viewed over 150,000 times by early Monday, several individuals identifying themselves as Black Lives Matter accost Malkin as one or more of them unfurl collapsible batons and begin pushing and beating on Malkin. In the process, she loses a shoe and is eventually assisted in escaping to a waiting car by the event’s security volunteers, at which point the video feed ends. Malkin was understandably distraught at this unanticipated violent turn of events and expressed frustration that Denver police, who were visibly present in the area, did nothing to stop the attacks or to allow the peaceful pro-police rally to continue.

Don't know anything about Colorado. Except that Hunter S. Thompson lived "in a heavily fortified compound" in Woody Creek, CO. Maybe he was onto something. We all have to fortify now.
This is absolutely true. I watched the video. A column of police filed through the blue lives matter rally. It appears they did nothing at all.
Fox News reports that the police did try to stop anarchists from blocking traffic on the nearby road.
THIS IS CRAP.
Police not stopping it (except traffic congestion on a road)....

I only saw the brief Todd Starnes website video. That showed an Antifa female (dumpy, chubby, with sagging breasts under black outfit) take out her collapsible telescoping weapon stick and pulled it out to full length. I read that using it for offensive purpose makes it illegal in most states.
This is called “defense” weapon but
chart online shows:
What states are collapsible batons legal?
Is Carrying a baton legal: Batons and Self Defense
State Carry-Open//Carry Concealed
California— Illegal//Illegal
Colorado— Legal// Legal
Connecticut— Illegal//Illegal etc.....

“ And to say “just following orders” is what the Nazi’s used in their defense at Nuremberg.”
And it is exactly what they are doing in American cities across the country today. And those giving the orders are pretty much the same as those giving the orders then. It’s just that those giving the orders do not have to worry about anything like the allied nations coming to remove them from power. They have no active opposition whatsoever to their tyrannical rule.
I saw that scene too. I thought it was a typical pajama boy, with weird glasses.
Probably a queer.
It’s evening and I still have not heard about this anywhere other than FR. Where is the media (conservative) on this?
That is what happened at Ohio State in 1970. A bunch of students were harassing the national guard. They intimidated them until some of them turned and shot the students. Several were killed. That stopped the protests. Anybody around then remembers that. “Four Dead in Ohio”...a song written about it.
I wish the police would use the clubs on their legs it would make it hard for them to run away and some of them might have permanent injuries which is what these vermin are too eager to inflict on others.
There is an antifa female all in black with her face covered. She takes out a collapsible baton from under here clothes.
cops if you don’t support us, we won’t support you....
Sue the Mayor.
Pass the word around to all of your friends and family. Maybe it will start to knock some of the liberal out of them. We have been taught to be so nice that we are not looking out for ourselves and our future.
Sue the mayor. Excellent idea.
Yes, that’s a favorite Michelle Malkin photo.
Now you gonna make me look again!
Throw me in That Briar Patch!
*** “Yes, that’s a favorite Michelle Malkin photo” ***
Now I’ve drowned twice in those eyes, in one night ...
“WHERE were the the REAL Real Tough people to intervene?”
That’s what she needed—hundreds of Bikers for Trump, along with other patriotic males who will provide protection at these events.
This should be a LESSON LEARNED for all conservative rallies and speakers from here on out. Make sure you have your own troops present.

If I ever get the opportunity here in Texas “I will be Present”
What they did to Michelle is going to bite them BIG TIME!
Thank you, sir! We need many more like you to step forward.
That’s it in a nutshell. Otherwise expressed as “heads, you lose; tails I win”
Did you see the antifa woman all in black taking out a folding baton?
