Standing only room as DFW airport protests grow
WFAA.COM ^ | 29 JANUARY 2017 | WFAA.COM

Protesters started trickling into DFW International Airport's baggage claim Saturday afternoon after news broke of up to 50 people being detained by customs. First it was a few dozen family members of detained travelers waiting for answers. A few hours later the crowd swelled to hundreds.

"I think the most beautiful thing about the entire evening was it wasn't predominately Muslim," Mohammad Abdulhadi said. "There were Mexicans, priests, rabbis, men, women, everybody."

Abdulhadi came to the airport to support his friend who's parents were being detained. The parents are from Syria and traveled with visas but were turned away when they arrived in the country.

Better order up some more flexi-cuffs. Interfering with/impeding interstate and international traffic.

This would not exactly enhance my sense of airport security.

Apparently coordinated "protests" are allowed damn near anywhere now... unless you are protesting infanticide.

Thanks to both immigration and government education, we have ended up with a whole lot of profoundly stupid people in this country. Trump has his work cut out for him.

When you “trickle in” to baggage claim, you ARE NOT A ‘TRAVELER!’ You are a paid subversive who got bused to the part of the airport that doesn’t require you to be screened.

They chose major east cost and maybe central and west coast airports because that’s where a lot of these Muslim Jihadists enter our country. It makes sense for them to maximize the dollars they get to demonstrate with the funds that the Hillary-Soros-DNC regimes have to spend.

They cannot keep it up. It doesn’t cost Trump one damned dime, personally, but it costs them PLENTY. This is liberals’ pathetic version of shock and awe without either. They’re depending on the MSM to back them up and they’ve got their panties already in bunch competing with TRUMP-TWEETS! Winning, believe it or not.

Obama refused entry to Christians fleeing ISIS, and these nimrods said *not one word*.

Exactly! They need to stop this nonsense or it will go on for every single policy passed by DJT.

Actually, I look at it another way. Liberals and evil Democrat ghouls have their work cut out for them.

They cannot sustain a long term, paid campaign to fight Trump with snowflakes who don’t know how to work or pay taxes.

The one advantage they have is that most of them don’t have a job to report to in the morning. So, yeah, they have some “free” time on their hands. Well less their stipend from some subversive georgie poorgie soros funds someplace.

...And, of course, there’s the red-hot new meme going around:

“Enough snowflakes can cause an avalanche.”

But, in the end, the avalanche mostly consumes their own. Those long-term residents who inhabit the surroundings know better than to get in their snowflake wakes.

My cousin up in Seattle sent me pictures of the protest at the Seattle-Tacoma Airport. C’mon, all these spontaneous protests at airports around the country at the same time are definitely coordinated. This is the next four years. The left wants its power back and will send its brainwashed minions out to the streets to protest everything this administration does. The more they protest the more I see someone in the midwest and the Rust Belt asking themselves how are all these clowns helping me to find work again and get back on my feet financially? They see the president talking to industry CEOs and labor leaders wanting to get Americans back to work. Meanwhile, they see a bunch of crybaby snowflake lefties marching and protesting who care about the rest of the world than their own country! The Democrats are in deeper trouble than they want to admit.

BOO HOO! A couple of immigrants were inconvenienced. Cry me a river.

What gives, when these *immigrants* keep flying back and forth to their *homeland*. Let’s make sure they have a one-way ticket, next time.
