Friday evenings Donald Trump rally in Chicago was broken up by a foul-mouthed mob that infiltrated the hall and forced the cancellation of the event to prevent violence and bloodshed.
Brownshirt tactics worked. The mob, triumphant, rejoiced.
And the reaction of Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz and John Kasich?
All three Republican rivals blamed Donald Trump.
With his dangerous style of leadership, Trump stokes this anger, mewed Rubio, This is what happens when a leading presidential candidate goes around feeding into a narrative of bitterness and anger and frustration.
Rubio implies that if Trump doesnt tone down his remarks to pacify the rabble, he will be responsible for the violence visited upon him.
Kasich echoed Rubio: Donald Trump has created a toxic environment (that) has allowed his supporters and those who sometimes seek confrontation to come together in violence.
But were the thousands of Trump supporters who came out to cheer him that night really looking for a fight? Or were they exercising their right of peaceful assembly?
Cruz charged Trump with creating an environment that only encourages this sort of nasty discord, thus offering absolution to the mob.
Friday night cried out for moral clarity. What we got from Trumps rivals was moral mush that called to mind JFKs favorite quote from Dante: The hottest places in hell are reserved for those who in time of moral crisis maintain their neutrality.

Michelle Malkin’s unrestrained and uncensored exposé of hate-mongering Leftists.

Sounds about like him. Michael Savage was made for this moment in history.
Bill Ayers was part of it. Might have trained some of them. [Weather Underground.]
Protesters smashed car windows, blocked ambulances, flipped people off, wore obscene tee-shirts, shouted vulgarities, antagonized people [such as by knocking hats off of heads], and worse.
Children were present.
“Mewed Rubio”
Great line.
Bill Ayers showed up with a video camera to video the proceedings—so he knew what was going to happen.
In fact, on Saturday, Fox News used some of his video and used a chyron to attribute the video they were displaying to him.
The new leftist management at Fox News is showing its influence in this, and in other ways.
Many of its new “contributors” are leftists.
Obviously, no right wing commentators can be found.
And he immediately sold out on immigration once funds were deposited.
You’re kidding, right?
FoxNews used some of Ayers’ own camera footage?
‘... he was on yesterday when lightning took out the local radio station...hmmmm. Guess Cruz DOES have some ‘connections’...’
ROFL!
Not kidding at all. I blanched when I saw it.
Think of what it took to get from Ayers to fox to being broadcast. As if there was not enough video of the event.
I know that Murdoch’s two far left loon sons are now in charge at Fox, so it is being co-opted.
It is happening very quickly.
Yeah, one old man let his understandable anger get the better of him. One old man among the hundreds of thousands of Trump supporters who have attended the rallies. Meanwhile every single leftist “protester” has been there to disrupt, many in response to an explicit call to disrupt put out by leftist organizations.
Yet what we get from Cruz is some perfunctory throat clearing about the leftists, followed by a BUT, and then the real accusation of fault which is directed at Trump.
You are correct that leaders set the tone. The leaders of groups like MoveOn.org are precisely who set the tone for the Chicago rally. Unlike the other Republicans, Trump is facing real organized disruption from the most powerful leftist groups, That’s primarily because he’s the frontrunner with the boldest positions, and is the one who’s most resoundingly expressing the will of the silent majority.
If Cruz were in Trump’s position, would he “lead” by debating every thug who rushes his stage? Would he have infinite patience as they disrupted nearly every one of his rallies for twenty or thirty minutes at a time? Trump and his supporters have actually been quite restrained in the face of this unprecedented leftist effort to disrupt.

Bill Ayers coordinating with FoxNews?

We will need some solid sourcing for this.
‘Yeah, one old man let his understandable anger get the better of him.’
Chicago could have used more old men like him in Chicago. They blocked ambulances. Since the police were overwhelmed, an army of old men should have beat the Clinton out of them to let the ambulances pass.
And I’ll go one step further — how long will people have to act like wimps while vile creeps debaucherize children via all the public vulgarities?
“Bill Ayers coordinating with FoxNews?”
OMG.
exit82 insists its true. I’ll try google. BRB.

“Rush did a great job exposing the leftist Unhinged brown shirts “
Yes he did but then he stopped and didn’t nail the 3 amigos adequately. When the one caller brought up Cruz being GOPe, Rush with fervor denied reality, blew the caller off and stuck with Cruz.
I’m not finding anything in google.
Exit, it might be up to you to get the timeline in which FoxNews used footage taped by Ayers. That would be a huge blow to them.
FRegards ....
But at least Rush made it clear who the real brown shirts are. That’s the main thing. Hannity did better on it, true. But I could tell by the way they both covered it that they hoped Cruz would walk it back.
Instead, Cruz doubled down ...
Ted Cruz: Donald Trump sees protesters as disloyal people who must be punished
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3409076/posts
So we’ll just have to wait and see. Not sure how much I’ll be listening today though. Need sleep.
The funny thing is that Cruz recently tried to twist it when he told a heckler that the difference between him and Trump is that he supported free speech and wouldn't tell anyone to punch the guy in the face - - - as the guy was escorted out for speaking up.......
So far, no sourcing to back exit82’s claim.
