"The responsibility for that lies with protesters, who took violence into their own hands. But in any campaign, responsibility starts at the top. Any candidate is responsible for the culture of a campaign. And when you have a campaign that disrespects the voters, when you have a campaign that affirmatively encourages violence, when you have a campaign that is facing allegations of physical violence against members of the press, you create an environment that only encourages this sort of nasty discord," Cruz said

Cruz and all sides with the communist tonight shutting down free speech. Pure and simple. Organized protests sponsored by moveon.org and Sanders and supported by the other Republican candidates. Trump Wins.
Just stateing simple facts. A good speaker, can at times influence the mob, and prevent hostility
Newt’s a smart man. Where he goes, many will follow
I started as a Scott Walker supporter. Never really cozied up to anyone after he dropped out. I’ve been leaning towards Cruz this past week. I’ve been very anti Trump through all of this. I’ve only watched 10 minutes of coverage of this Chicago mess .. These ignorant children with their Bernie signs that cannot put a coherent thought together - they are guaranteeing Trump’s victory right now.
In the heads of the fanatical cruzers - rent-free... :)
Damn right they did!
Really? Have you been to any rally to experience that "nasty environment"? Or are you basing this on the headlines that you're dutifully repeating?
Search I was Cruz supporter on twitter. Ita amazing. Cruz is toast.
Trending on twitter...
Seriously, Cruz doesn’t care about losing conservtives. He’s captain of the anti-Trump ship and has bigger fish to fry. Conservatives can ESAD as far as he is concerned.
That is the site they were siding with tonight. Build the Wall.
False dichotomy.
Standard Trumpertantrum ploy.
Feel you emotions.
AKA
Don’t fight back, even when knocked back or knocked out. If punched, don’t hit back.
“Relax. It’ll be over soon.” Words every rapist knows well.
You don’t understand. When 0bama says something like “they bring a knife, we bring a gun” it’s horrible, fascistic violence inciting rhetoric. When Trump says something like “punch them in the face” he means it in a peace, love and brown rice kind of way.
Hostility between humans yes, baboons not so much.
Doesn’t matter how long or how short of a time someone has been anywhere...
You decide what you feel by what you read...
>>> Were the protestors being violent or just loud and obnoxious?
There is no inherent 1st Amendment right to protest at a private event, such as a Trump rally.
Bite me, Ted.
Kasich is still running?
Kasich, Rubio and Cruz all say...MEOW...
Trump will get some new big endorsements out of this. Newt for one. Book it. It’s clear now the battle is joined and it’s a time for choosing.
Can you show me some video of the protestors being violent? Not being smart assed I really want to see where there was unprovoked violence by a protestor at the rally.
