I wonder how many people were outside hoping to attend the rally, but left when the protesters showed up.

[siamesecats]

That crowd right up front does not look good. Lots of red hats, though...

[hoosiermama]

Amen

[orinoco]

Saw viva la Mexico signs in the audience.

[nopardons]

Not unless Obama's kids get inside.

} This was put together in haste, unlike what happened in '68.

[MayflowerMadam]

Exactly what I said. ;-)

[DollyCali]

just back at hotel & rsbn is on but no sound and I guess it hasn’t started yet. I am sure this is a SS nightmare.

Haven’t read the thread

Hello Trump family

[nopardons]

Saw a Mexican flag and some other V strange looking flags too.

[orinoco]

Trump is going right into their liberal turf...Chicago. He is facing them head on.

[MayflowerMadam]

Melania’s heart must be in her throat from beginning to end of these rallies.

[advertising guy]

just got home, possibly, a live link ?

[RKBA Democrat]

Reminds me of a gun show. I chuckle at the idea that criminals buy guns there: the places are crawling with cops and a lot of gun dealers are ex LEO.

Trump Protesters Escorted Out of Venue as Thousands Gather for Chicago Rally

Three attendees wearing shirts that read "Muslims United Against Trump" and "Make America Hate Again" were removed from the venue as protesters gathered inside and outside the pavillion

Inside the rally, an announcement could be heard telling the crowd to "not touch or harm the protesters."

"Mr. Trump will continue his right of free speech in America," the announcer said. "As a matter of fact, he supports the First Amendment just as much as he supports the Second Amendment. However, some people have taken advantage of Mr. Trump’s hospitality by choosing to disrupt his rallies by using them as an opportunity to promote their own political messages. While they certainly have their right to free speech, this is a private rally paid for Mr. Trump."

The announcer also told supporters at the rally if they see a protester, they can notify law enforcement by placing a rally sign over their head and chanting "Trump, Trump, Trump." Supporters of Trump began lining up at the building before sunrise Friday. The GOP front-runner is scheduled to speak at the school’s pavilion at 6 p.m., with doors opening at 3 p.m. The first person in line to wait for a spot at the free event arrived at 3 a.m. The arena seats 9,500, though it's not clear how many are set to attend the rally.

More than 10,000 officially RSVP’d that they will be going to the university to protest the event.

Hi Dolly!

I hope you've had your dinner.

[etabeta]

why are some in the crowd allowed to have backpacks?

[DAVEY CROCKETT]

CNN is showing a large crowd up and down the street...this is not good...

[hoosiermama]

They have internet now. Didn’t have in 68

A tweet or two gathers the crowd in minutes

[MayflowerMadam]

RSBN has been playing music for a looong time. Check your volume and/or mute button.

[onyx]

Right on!

Trump is fearless!

[nopardons]

That’s what I said to the beloved.
