Hillary Clinton’s Cinco de Mayo LA Rally Anything but Festive Due to Protesters
ABC News ^ | May 6, 2016 | By Liz Kreutz

Posted on 05/06/2016 7:07:27 AM PDT by COUNTrecount

Hillary Clinton headed to East Los Angeles Thursday night in honor of the Mexican holiday Cinco de Mayo -- but her rally in this predominantly Hispanic part of L.A. was anything but celebratory.

Hundreds of protesters descended upon East Los Angeles College to express their disdain for the Democratic presidential front-runner. Most of the protesters remained outside the college, although some made their way inside.

The protesters -- some of whom carried pro-Bernie Sanders signs -- spanned the spectrum in terms of their key issues: Some were protesting Clinton's refusal so far to release her speaking engagement transcripts and her ties to Wall Street, while others took issue with Clinton's "super-predator" remarks in 1994, and the crime bill her then-president husband signed that year. Others also headed to Clinton's rally to protest her involvement in the 2009 Honduras coup, and to accuse her of pandering to the Hispanic community.

Likely because of the commotion, Clinton gave a very short speech by her standards: Just over 13 minutes -- nearly all of which focused on Trump.

These folks need to go somewhere they feel comfortable. We need to cut off all benefits for them.

Hillary Clinton is destroying the Democrat Party.

This is the best year I’ve had since I was a kid!

It seems like these people need a nice “safe place” to go to if America is too American for them. Maybe they can go to Mexico.

LOL! Uh, not really since stinko de piehole is a “beer” holiday and has only slightly more credibility than kwhaaaaanza. So, for her trip to east la, did hildebeast use the low rider suburban with the hydraulics and “Low Rider” blasting out of the sub woofers? That should prove how much she loves la raza and mecha shouldn’t it? Pander bear biotch.

I feel sorry for the young lady in front.

She didn’t get to grow up in a world where people like that raging heifer just got locked up in the nut house.

The Dems have created a great monster to do their bidding, but now they’re losing control of it.

Actually that stupid girl doesn’t understand that she doesn’t matter at all.

Probably isn’t registered to vote.

Pretty funny though. I could turn this into a campaign ad for Trump by focusing on all the LaRaza, We are Mexico, and other nonsense .....then point out that these folks are people that Hillary considers good Americans

The Democrats think Brown is the new Black. They are wrong, there is an independent streek in the Latino community. They will not vote lockstep for anyone the DNC tells them too. When the Democrats dump Bernie they may jump ship to Trump.
