A group of anti-Trump demonstrators used gas canisters, rocks and bottles to assault police Tuesday night and create havoc at what officials said was mostly a peaceful protest in Phoenix.

Video captured by a local reporter also shows a smoking object being thrown at police while hundreds of officers attempted to keep order at a rally after President Trump's speech at the Phoenix Convention Center had ended.

“. . . mostly a peaceful protest.” Funny, the media could have justifiably said the same thing about Charlottesville, but didn’t. I wonder why.

Pepperball Star
(to the tune of the Byrds “rock and roll star”)

So you want to be a Pepperball Star
Just listen now to what I say
Get yourself an Antifa Jar
Then Piss in it, you’re on your way

And with your Mask on tight
You attack the Cops and you’ll be alright
Then it’s time to go downtown
Where the Anarchists won’t let you down

Sell your Soul to the Soros Clan
Sacrifice your Balls, be an Antifa Man
In a week or two when you show off your Scar
Just be yourself you’re a Pepperball Star

The price you paid was worth all the pain
Who needs two Balls, you’re a little insane
The money from Soros doesn’t get you too far
But in the Youtube world you’re a Pepperball Star

3 1/2 more years to tweak their BB balls. Every day.

Then four more years ... schadenfreude’s on the menu tomorrow, and the day after, then TGIF, and next week
and September and October and ... (laughing like Odin)

President Trump was right about both sides being violent.

Bet this story won't get any coverage in the MSM.

I read up on pepper balls yesterday or the day before and think they are great.

I then advocated paint balls to mark law breakers for arrest and questioning. Perhaps one paint ball gun for every squad of riot police
will allow equitable arrests

These are paid Protesters which means they are employees. Their employers should be sued and held liable for any and all first responder costs, any and all property damage and any and all medical costs of anyone hurt by said employees.

Someone should come up with a paint ball combined with the ink that explodes when a bank robber opens up his bag of stolen money, with pepper gas.

The ink stays on for days and could help keep the pepper spray working for days.

Then, the leos can paint/pepper spray every masked rioter in these riots.

I wrote it to the Byrds “Rock and Roll Star”.

I’m actually old enough to remember the Byrds.

I figured it would get a few yucks here.
Maybe I’ll post it on the comments section of the Video.

The very last line worked out better than I would have imagined in this YouTube age we live in.

Mr. Ballcrunch is a one hit wonder on YouTube now. LOL
