Trump baby blimp 'stabbed with sharp object' by pro-Trump activist in London

One of the Trump baby blimps flown at today’s protests in London against the US president’s visit was attacked by a pro-Trump supporter carrying a sharp object.

A woman approached a group anti-Trump activists outside the House of Commons and stabbed the mini blimp in the back, according to the team of “babysitters” looking after the balloon.

“A woman … punctured the mini Trump baby replica with a sharp object,” said a spokesman for the Trump Baby UK group. “It’s not surprising that the far right would want to meet freedom of expression with violence.”

The Donald Trump supporter was led away from the crowd by police officers. A spokesperson for Scotland Yard told The Independent that “one female has been arrested for being in possession of a pointed or bladed article”.

The ONE comment in entire article that grabbed my attention, what absolute hypocrites they are, stabbing a balloon is violent, YET setting cars on fire, destroying and looting businesses, beating MEGA hat wearers to a pulp is obviously NON VIOLENT!!! GIVE ME A DAMN BREAK!!!

““one female has been arrested for being in possession of a pointed or bladed article”.

Is that a crime?

I can see them arresting her for damaging someone else’s property, but not because she had a knife.

Could have been a knitting needle. The left’s war on knitters. All jokes aside. Good on her. Love desecration of leftist objects

"I have a pencil that is pointed and sharp. Please don’t report me to the fuzz."


Many people also carry around fingers that are sometimes pointed too, so they probably feel the same way as you do about the fuzz, concerning their pointed fingers.

With a little adroit filing, that spoon could be modified into a deadly spork.

I was thinking “Oh London”, but then I noticed just two posts down from this one, some guy in America was arrested for covering his girlfriend in … ketchup.

Goes to show you, somehow. Not sure how exactly, but it shows you something.

Sooo...

Dumping shakes, punching and pushing = not violence by the left..

Yet one person pops a balloon and then everyone is violent on the right.

Wowee.. .
