Police warn 'swift' action against anti-Trump protesters

Police in Anaheim, California, warned they would take "swift and decisive enforcement action" if protesters get out of hand at a Donald Trump rally on Wednesday, a day after a violence broke out at the Republican presidential candidate's campaign event in New Mexico.

Mike McGetrick, one of two people carrying "Latinos for Trump" signs at the Anaheim rally, said he is part of a group called America First Latinos. He said his neighborhood in nearby Orange is "being overrun" by undocumented immigrants.

"There are so many of them, and they're everywhere," said McGetrick, 62, a retired city worker. "I can tell an illegal from a regular person just like that."

In a Twitter post on Wednesday, Trump called the protesters "thugs who were flying the Mexican flag."

"The rally inside was big and beautiful, but outside, criminals!" he said.

Saw that on TV. It looks like with the exception of a couple of protesters, everybody got the message.

just post this:

Section 8 USC 1324(a)(1)(A)(iv)(b)(iii)

“Any person who. . . encourages or induces an alien to reside knowing or in reckless disregard of the fact that such . . . residence is in violation of law, shall be punished as provided . . . for each alien in respect to whom such a violation occurs . . . fined under title 18 . . . imprisoned not more than 5 years, or both.”

Section 274 felonies under the federal Immigration and Nationality Act, INA 274A(a)(1)(A):

A person (including a group of persons, business, organization, or local government) commits a federal felony when she or he:

assists an alien s/he should reasonably know is illegally in the U.S. or who lacks employment authorization, by transporting, sheltering, or assisting him or her to obtain employment, or

* encourages that alien to remain in the U.S. by referring him or her to an employer or by acting as employer or agent for an employer in any way, or

* knowingly assists illegal aliens due to personal convictions.

You mean they’re going to bring Taylor Swift action against the protesters, which actually might be an effective deterrent to those Soros types.

As for me, I’m a Swifty.

Yep, that's how all the rallies have gone. The cops need to arrest the protesters, haul them away and make them post bail.

prepare camp holding facilities for mass protest rioters , as Reagan did in Cally back in the 60’s. They worked ! Chilling in Alameda for a few weeks calmed them right down.

And on the other hand , where the mass peaceful protests by people at Clinton rallies , protesting little miss Benghazi-blood-on-her-hands , couldn’t be bothered to answer the emergency phone call ( along with 100’s of pleading emails and wires)?

Her every appearance should have 100’s Freepers & Trump patriots in attendance with own signs

Now that’s what I’m talking about. I fear police laxity and dawdling in Cleveland and we will have to protect ourselves.
They really need Homeland Security there with their 2500 armored personnel carriers and 1 billion rounds of .223 ammo

And all the non-documented savages from a certain part of the world (somewhere between Europe and central Asia) might have to leave as well.

Mr Trump should be reminding everyone that at every Rally, and let them know Attorney General Chris Christie is already gathering evidence to PROSECUTE EVERY POLITICIAN of EVERY SANCTUARY CITY!

Love love love seeing this: Trump is, I believe, drawing blacks and Latinos and whites and women who believe in LAW.

God bless that woman.
