this sign is the problem...

The Silent Majority should stay silent.


These people want to eliminate free speech since they don’t agree with it...Tyranny of the minority through Political Correctness.

And I am really really upset that Cruz is supporting their efforts by saying this is Trump’s fault!!

If you think that an orchestrated left-wing attack upon a peaceable assembly can be justified by anything the Trump campaign has done or said, then you're as bad as the thugs who committed this crime.

Dozens of Ted Cruz supporters on this site have defected from his camp as a result of his shameful opportunism, and his abject failure to show solidarity for Law & Order and against Anarchy.

What the BLM/Moveon crowd did was unlawful and indefensible. Period.

And if it never before or never happened again, this day should have been the time for all the candidates to stand unified against such lawless and un-American tactics on the part of the totalitarian Left.

Ted Cruz f----d up, plain and simple. He has been exposed as a naked opportunist, and he is losing support because of it...

I think those folks in the 54 jets are guilty of conspiracy and should be charged with that and civil suits should be flying in their direction. Inciting violence by a mob is also illegal and if I were Trump I would file every charge I could think of against the so called protesters and their paymasters. Take off the gloves Trump.

I do think [...] it’s no more unfair than what Trump has done to Cruz.

Apparently there are many (former) Ted Cruz supporters who disagree with you, and believe that Cruz's comments were entirely off base, and made him sound like an apologist for an organized, criminal left-wing conspiracy intended solely to foment violence and infringe on the Right of the People to Peaceably Assemble.

Ted Cruz jumped the shark last night. He stands exposed as a naked opportunist, and as a result dozens of his (former) supporters on this forum, voters who have publicly avowed him, have been driven into the Donald Trump camp.

What the BLM/MoveOn crowd did yesterday was overtly un-American, and their crime should have been fiercely repudiated by the entire field of GOP candidates. Instead, blinded by their own hatred and ambition, they failed to show leadership or solidarity for something that should have unified the entire country.

If the response on this forum is any indicator, March 11 will be remembered Cruz's Waterloo.

It will be curious to see what happens in FL after this. I was a Cruz supporter and was very disappointed at his milqtoast statement.

At this point I would vote for Trump not Cruz.

It amazes me that Trump supporters think they have some kind of mandate or landslide with Trump pulling in about one third of Republican votes so far.

All reading from the same ‘How to Be a Wimp’ Manual. Clearly coordinated, and clearly unfit to be Commander in Chief.

The only thing the little criminals outside did last night was to prove to me that I made the right decision in supporting Trump and I think a lot more will decide the same thing. The left is all about shutting down anybody that doesn’t agree with them or that they don’t agree with. Trump proved to be the bigger person last night. A lot of the protesters were Bernie fans, according to Greta. I’m disappointed that Cruz laid the blame at Trump’s feet and that shows me that Cruz is NOT what we need. Before his statement, I could have supported him.

What a load of crap you are pushing. Go back and listen to what Cruz actually said. The protesters are responsible for their violence. Trump is responsible for the tone he sets at his rallies.

Sargon and his Trump allies pushing this narrative are the opportunists.

Brown shirts go out into the public and party-crash to enforce submission. Cruz, Rubio and Kasich sided with the Brown Shirts.

So, let me get this straight.

You feel you and your 35% of the GOP can overcome the remaining 65% of the GOP, which itself only represents half of the country...?

So, your group of 17.5% of the country will not unite with anyone, and just win?

Um. No.

It does not work like that.

You will lose, yet again.

If Hillary is elected this fall, it is only fools who support Trump which will be to blame.

Isn’t Cruz supposed to be the defender of the Bill of Rights? Is that only in theory? It seems that the first time he had the chance to ACTUALLY DO IT, he demurred. Cruz 2016? Nah, I’ll keep my freedom to assemble and freedom of speech thank you very much.

Yep - some here seem to forget that they're supposedly of the type that would say something like, "I may disagree with what you say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it."

They sound more like Hillary trying to blame Benghazi on a video, or those that say it's understandable that terrorists cut off the heads of innocents because someone said something bad about their god...

In their attempts to smear Trump, they hide from the very "principles" they claim to stand by....

If you think that Donalds coarse rhetoric is the cause these protestors are all in a huff about, explain to me why Obamas rhetotric never caused the same reaction. “If they bring a knife to a fight, we’ll bring a gun” ...Obama

These people are not organized because of how Donald says things, they are organized by what he says he will do to change things like illegal immigration.

Also, these people are not organizing themselves, they are being organized...and maybe paid... by leftist groups who are being organized by powerful elitists that don’t like what Donald is willing to do to stop them.
