The Democratic Party is bracing for massive protests during the Democratic National Committee convention in Chicago in August, reminiscent of the chaos of the 1968 convention.
Fears of a repeat of the infamous convention, which saw hundreds arrested, have been thrown around as the Israel-Hamas war continues and as massive campus protests that have paralyzed several universities have further illustrated what may be in store for the Chicago DNC convention in August.
“This last week has taken the demonstrations to a different level,” former President Barack Obama’s chief of staff William Daley told the Washington Post. “It portends that you have the potential for big demonstrations. Whether they get violent — that’s more imaginable today than it was a year ago.”
**SNIP**
“Peaceful protest is fundamental to American democracy, and has been a fixture of political conventions for decades,” DNC spokesman Matt Hill told the outlet in a statement. “While Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans stoke political violence, we support the ongoing security coordination at all levels of government to keep our convention safe.”
“When the country looks to Chicago this August, the unity and excitement of Democrats will stand in stark contrast to the chaos and extremism stewing in the GOP,” he added.

Blame Trump.
I would not be surprised if this scum tries to burn Chicago to the ground. Mostly peaceful protests my butt.
They have the potential to make Mrs. O’Leary and her cow look like light weights.
Hey Democrats, don’t engage in any violent acts against the Democrats during their convention ...oh, go ahead have fun
Matt Hill is a lying sack of crap.
They must want chaos to book it in Chicago. Or maybe they’re really that stupid. If they don’t want chaos then just have some balls and cancel it or move it.
That’s why Biden is trying so hard to get this cease fire I mean Israel surrender Hamas victory to satisfy the Jew haters in his party
My gastroenterologist has warned me of the dangers of the amount of popcorn I'll need for the riots.
Below are photos how the 1968 Chicago rioters were handled.
Scroll down and across:
Yeah. It’s all his fault. Isn’t it great? Pass the popcorn.
Wait a minute. Isn’t that election interference?
Coat it with caramel, it’ll go down smoother.
At this point, what difference does it make in Gaza. The evil low-lifes have no doubt scarpered from Rafeh, leaving civilians in harm’s way of their false trail.
The recent campus protests were just for practice.
Either Chicago will call in the national guard and have armed soldiers posted throughout the city or the Hamas/Antifa wing of the democrat party will riot, loot and burn like they did in 2020.
Which do you think is more likely?
I do not think it is all that for the Muslim population in Michigan to travel to Chicago. Should make for an interesting Democrat convention. Oh, and Jews not welcome. Bwahahahahaha
The videos I am sharing now got me kicked off Facebook 4 years ago.
If you want to understand the political and religious reasons that our campuses are being infiltrated by Hamas and Hizb’allah forces and the anti-Jew hatred is growing at an alarming rate, these videos will tell you what happened inside our political system and our colleges.
This is not a prophesy video, this is a national security briefing series of videos.
This is about 6 hours of video that I took in 2012, and it is perfectly applicable today.

During the summer of 1968, in central Illinois, I was standing on top of a Route 66 railroad overpass walking the shoulder, when a convoy of military jeeps went by in a line that literally stretched out for over a mile, bending at a curve in the road in one continuous column, all bound for Chicago. I stood there at 11 years old, awestruck, as vehicles zipped by one after the other, numbering in the hundreds.
I knew the soldiers were on their way into Chicago to do street battle with the hippie and yippie Viet Nam war protestors, that had filled our black and white television sets with nightly news images of monstrous clashes between them and the Chicago police.
