Maxine Waters: I threaten Trump supporters 'all the time'
The Hill ^ | 09/10/18 | Megan Keller

Posted on 09/10/2018 9:44:47 AM PDT by yesthatjallen

Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) mockingly said in a speech last weekend that she she threatens Trump supporters all the time, defending her comments in June urging supporters to harass members of President Trump's administration.

Waters said she was not threatening Trump supporters or constituents when she called on people to confront Trump Cabinet members and supporters in June — and said President Trump was wrong to accuse her of doing so at the time.

"I did not threaten [Trump] constituents and supporters. I do that all the time, but I didn't do that that time," Waters said to laughter from a crowd in Los Angeles.

Waters also said she was not advocating any violence against political opponents, and sought to draw a distinction between her remarks and President Trump's on that issue.

"What bothered me so much was, they tried to frame that as violence," Waters said. "That's not violence."

"The poster child for violence is the president of the United States. He's the one who threatens," she explained. "Don't forget at his rallies, when he said go ahead and beat them up, I'll take them out on a stretcher."

"I do not advocate violence," she said. "I do not believe you should hit, kick, shoot."

"We have to tell people the difference between violence and incivility and protesting," Waters added.

Waters earned attention and criticism for the remarks from June.

"I said, if you see them anywhere, if you see them in a restaurant, if you see them in a department store, even at a gasoline station, just tell them, you're not welcome here or anywhere," Waters recalled in the weekend remarks.

"Of course it frightened a lot of people," she added.

This Maxine Waters is a piece of sh*t..she hates white people, but lives in Hancock Park..she is a thief who uses phony schemes and funnels the money to her daughter. She needs to be investigated but we all know she wont, she is black, and a Commie, therefore she is off limits

What a front hole. She needs to pick those she threatens very carefully.

When she tells her constituents to "confront" opponents in any way other than casting a vote, she incites violence.
She knows that. The rest are weasel words.

"During the days immediately preceding the violence, RCP [The Revolutionary Communist Party] -- which maintained close ties to the L.A. gangs known as the Crips and the Bloods -- had circulated throughout South Central Los Angeles a leaflet featuring a statement by RCP National Spokesman Carl Dix, titled 'It's Right To Rebel' -- a quote popularized by Mao Zedong.

Encouraged by Dix, RCP activists helped lead the riots that would leave 58 people dead, more than 2,300 people injured, some 5,300 buildings burned, and $1 billion in property damaged or destroyed. On the ten-year anniversary of the rioting, RCP member Joseph Veale fondly recalled the violence as 'the most beautiful, the most heroic civil action in the history of the United States.'"

"NEVER FORGET that Maxine Waters embraced Damien Williams, the infamous thug who hurled a chunk of concrete at truck driver Reginald Denny and performed a victory dance over this innocent man’s battered body.

Maxine Waters even visited Damien Williams’ mother to offer her support.

Williams was sent to prison on a single felony charge of mayhem, but when his accomplices got off, Waters joined in the celebration. Damien Williams was released a few years later and went on to [commit] murder... Also, no surprise, he was a member of the Crips."

Maxine Waters on the Los Angeles riots of 1992 (Rodney King riots):

"In defense of the people that looted stores and damaged property, [Maxine] Waters said 'If you call it a riot it sounds like it was just a bunch of crazy people who went out and did bad things for no reason. I maintain it was somewhat understandable, if not acceptable. So I call it a rebellion.'[5]

She also said it was 'a spontaneous reaction to a lot of injustice' and 'The anger in my district is righteous. I'm just as angry as they are'. "

You think she’s an idiot? (and she is)

But just think about the mental capacity of the people who vote for her!

You are not a threat. You are an embarrassment to the human race.

If you support America, the Constitution and the outcome of legitimate elections, be prepared for Civil War after the midterms - REGARDLESS of who wins.

Yes, easily duped. Part of the reason they resort to violence is because they realize the modern, tech world is leaving them behind.

I agree with Mad Max. If I saw her coming down the street, I’d be threatened too.

If not by the sight of her fugly mug, then by the entourage of thugs and gang-bangers following her.

I actually give some degree of credit for at least openly saying what libfilth across the country are “thinking.” At least with Mad Max, you know and see her hate up front; she doesn’t feign nicety, only to stab you in the back.
