Pensacola is not exactly San Francisco.

Not a good idea to attack people there.

This is normal behavior from the Brown Shirts. They egg your home, key your car and throw food and drinks at you. But they call you uncivilized.....

It could just as easily have been acid. These men need better protection these days when they go out into this hostile environment called constituents.

This is completely uncivilized behavior. If you are a grown person of any political persuasion and throw things at people you deserve to go to jail & pay a huge fine.

It was the 2016 Candidate (D) who he beat in the election. She was arrested and jailed for battery. Gateway Pundit has video of the smuck.

Hopefully there won’t be any backlash against the Left.

That’s always a danger with the out-of-control, violent Right Wing.

These fascists are just getting warmed up. Remember behaviors like this never ratchets down, it always ratchets up. The real question is, when are the Republicans going to realize that? And when are the majority of mush head voters going to figure it out?

From the story:

Pensacola police told The Hill that one person, 25-year-old Amanda Kondrat’yev was “quickly detained” at the scene for allegedly throwing the drink, adding that “there was no further incident” at the town hall.

When you stop accepting election results, you have a countdown to a civil war.

What do sure odds of the Democrats rejecting the next Republican president really mean? It means they don’t accept the results of any election that they don’t win. It means they don’t believe that transfers of power in this country are determined by elections. That’s a civil war.

When you consistently reject the results of elections that you don’t win, what you want is a dictatorship. Your very own dictatorship !

Now we’re seeing what the pros do when amateurs try to walk in on them. They spy on them, they investigate them, and they send them to jail. They use the tools of power to bring them down. That’s not a free country.

It’s not a free country when FBI agents who support Hillary take out an ‘insurance policy’ against Trump winning the election. It’s not a free country when Obama officials engage in massive unmasking of the opposition. It’s not a free country when the media responds to the other guy winning by trying to ban the conservative media that supported him from social media. It’s not a free country when all of the above collude together to overturn an election because the guy who wasn’t supposed to win did.

Have no doubt, we’re in a civil war between conservative volunteer government and a leftist Democrat professional government.

“Folks keep talking about another civil war.” “One side has about 8 trillion bullets, while the other side doesn’t know which bathroom to use.”

Which side will win a brutal and deadly Civil war for the losing side?

The Left is really brave in big groups when they know the other side will not rise to their provocations. But, lets see how they act when the bullets start to fly — which is coming if they continue on their destroy the country path of lies, violence and anarchy.

If they identified her, then why is she not charged?
