Attack at a Trump rally

A recent rally for President Donald Trump ended in an attack and arrests, according to authorities.

ORLANDO, Fla. - Orange County deputies arrested five people, accused of battery and assault upon supporters of President Donald Trump, during a rally at the intersection of Alafaya and University.

John Bohl, 77, is back out rallying for President Trump, despite bumps and bruises which he said happened during last week’s event.

"These are all scrapes. It was out in the parking lot," he said.

According to deputies, 21-year-old Jake Rosenhaus tried grabbing the flag, then allegedly punched Bohl in the head.

"They started jerking it away from me. I jerked it back from them and he got mad and he hit me, punched me in the face."

And a few minutes later, a video recording appears to show someone driving into the lot where Trump supporters were gathered. Bohl appears to touch the vehicle and the person inside appears irate.

"A girl was in a car and she pulled right in the midst of all this from the other side. She spit on me and I held back and then I walked away from her and she leaped out of the car and tackled me from behind," Bohl explained.

Deputies said a total of four adults and one juvenile were arrested on battery and assault charges.

"I got maced in the face that day too. It could have been avoided if they would have let us wave flags for our president and leave us alone," said Jeff Sonksen.

Bohl said he will continue to come out and rally for the president as he did on Tuesday in Casselberry, despite his injuries.

"Its no big deal. I broke a rib, but I went to the hospital and they said it will heal itself, but it’s painful."

Sonksen said it’s sad when people start getting attacked for their political views.

"I refuse to hide in my house. Freedom of speech, I should be able to do this."

Supporters said they stay to one side of the street when rallying and that there's a clear boundary.

Investigators arrested two of the suspects for allegedly trying to run over supporters during the rally. Deputies said they will be back out again, watching over the next rally.

Suddenly the MSM remembers how to spell “allegedly,” a word that appears twice in the story.

"She spit on me"

For a 77-year old person nowadays that should be considered a imminent-threat bio-attack and dealt with accordingly.

When Trump wins we need to start demanding schools stop teaching hate and go back to the basics. We do not need ‘woke’ courses. If they do not change then sue them for the hate they spread!

Back in 2012 in a upscale mall outside of Portland, I witnessed three hoods threatening a retired couple.
They were all in their 20’s, over 6’ and of course Obama supporters.

I put my hand in my pocket and suggested they find something else to do.
Until the last 6 months, it always seemed a bit strange.
Ms Kimber will be with me the next time this happens.

All as a result of the Obama years. Programmed leftists who believe that the non-programmed, anti-socialists must lose at all costs even if it means murder and arson. They are psychologically warped Obama pawns. It is also the result of our skewed, racist educational system started by Obama.

What is idiot moron children who have been indoctrinated by their leftist public schools don’t understand is there simply mirroring the techniques the tire true and worn out techniques of the brown shirts in Nazi Germany and the communist

under communist Russia and communist china not to mention North Korea Cuba and every other dictatorship and communist hell half this fine planet

This is why we need to make the Democrats answer

what do you really propose to do ?

we don’t want to hear that you hate us ; that is not a political platform

One can only hope that this great country is finally woke it up and seeing what the Democrat lies have right over the last 50 or more years since the great Roosevelt era and of course the Vietnam war and the Foul mother Texan with his “ great society “

In particular the black community needs to recognize that this is just a continuation of slavery by the Democratic Party in a different form

Those are my flag waving friends. We have been all over Central FL for months. Typical leftist behavior. More were arrested this Saturday at the same location. Cops have now been told to arrest them because they know it doesn’t look good to low info Biden voters. Go to Paint The Trump on youtube and you can see all the videos

I've been to three Trump rallies...two after he was elected. All three featured noticeable police presence.I always assumed that it was to protect the President but maybe it was partially to protect us as well!

President Trump can be given full credit for drawing these scumbags on the left out into the open so the whole world can see what they’re really all about.
