What some old man did on his own fruition does not compare to an organized campaign of violent confrontation and attempted suppression of a candidate and his supporter's 1st amendment rights. Imagine if Trump supporters started crashing and shutting down Bernie Sanders rallies, there is a candidate that has a violence problem and it's not Donald Trump. Bernie Sanders should have to disavow these extremists, these are the same folks that caused trouble down in Ferguson. George Soros funds Moveon.org and they organized this attack, they printed fliers and recruiting paid agitators.

He encouraged his supporters to physically attack hecklers. He also told his security to "rough them up", and made comments about having protesters "carried out on a stretcher". I'd say that kind of crap is playing with fire. He's basically encouraging hooliganism and thuggery. I'm not at all surprised to see violence erupting on both sides. He wanted to bring back the "good old days" when it was okay to beat people up for disagreeing. I say he got what he deserved. f**k him. Live by the sward, die by the sward.

Yeah live by the sword die by the sword, what do you expect trying to shutdown an event with thousands of people attending? That is not a peaceful demonstration or a difference of opinion, that is an attempt to silence someone else. There are no Trump hooligans, there no mobs of Trump supporters harassing those of the other candidates. The only candidate that can lay claim to that is Bernie Sanders if he refuses to disavow these groups and their tactics which of course he won't since he is as shameless as any other politician and exactly what he accuses someone else of being. It would be world news if one violent Trump supporter invaded a Bernie or Hillary rally but for some reason this is okay for this self avowed socialist?

I do not see anything about violence in this article.Sanders has never said anything about protesters being carried out in stretchers if they protest.Trump supporters have the right to protest also,but I doubt they do it peacefully.Is more like Trump is trying to squelch the protesters free speech.
If you ever took the pledge of allegiance,well that was written by a socialist.

You can't but apologize for it because you agree with it but you know damn well the reaction would be with the shoe on the other foot. Shutting down an event is not a form of peaceful protest but rather authoritarianism by people who cannot take dissent, this is violence that Bernie doesn't condemn or disavow but rather blames on Trump. Bill Ayers, La Raza, communists, BLM extremists, and bunch of these organized professional agitators that we see spring up as the opportunists they are wherever there is unrest and they have made a network in the midwest now centered in Chicago. These are that tried to escalate things in Ferguson, the people who smash up smash up the store windows. They led an assault to shutdown a peaceful assembly of thousands of attendees. If that isn't hooliganism, then I don't know what is. There is no equivalent, like seriously who cares what some 70 year old man did on his own fruition. I think that guy is going to be alright by the way. It seem that these people want real violence, they want an overreaction and I fear might even go as far to false flag something themselves. There are people cheerleading that dumbass that made a rush at Trump yesterday in Ohio who is a Bernie fan, there is a violence problem and it's not with Trump supporters. What are these people going to do when Trump wins?

He wouldn't be shut down if he wasn't a power hungry madman. I mean, what else do you call a guy who has power fantasies of being a mafioso strongman who is above the law and can tell his security and/or supporters to "rough people up". I don't give a s**t if he claims it was a joke, it isn't funny. Trump has the mentality of a playground bully. He want's to stir s**t by acting like a fascist. Sanders does not do this. End of story.

There are literally dozens of these people every stop he goes almost, they're the violent ones. It's completely ridiculous, as far as I know no protesters have been tased for just asking a question like they did the one kid with John Kerry. You excuse their violence but then scream at the top of your lungs because some senior citizen threw a punch at some guy. Fascists try to shut down dissent, they will resort to violence to achieve this. What will these people do when Trump is elected?

Keep it up, I've seen this before in Wisconsin when the dumbie public unions and these far left activists overplayed their hands with Scott Walker. I said it then, if they kept this up they will make that man president and it almost happened despite Scott Walker having the charisma of a rock so I am seeing something similar happening here. That was the forefront of the political world at that time and I can you tell you right there that is what happened.

He hasn't won yet,still quite a few months till Election Day .And if he did,the same thing everybody does when we get a Prez that sucks.b***h about it,make memes,go on Internet forums and start arguments.
That's was a stupid stunt to rush the stage,he's very lucky that he didn't get seriously hurt by Secret Service.No reason to applaud ignorance.Why did Trump tweet that the guy was connected to Isis??Trump should be thankful that the guy wasn't a real terrorist,he was close enough to do some real damage.

How does one get paid to be an agitator? And do they provide free transportation to the agitation site?
Show me the paper trail and valid proof of this,and from a legit source.

That is hooliganism that should be disavowed and condemned but this guy is getting interviewed on CNN a couple days later? People are treating him like some hero? You have to admit there is a double standard here, this is an escalation in actual violence which something that should not be tolerated.

And you don't have any bias? :lol: Mr. "we might have to kill him" is just a harmless "senior citizen". It's more unsettling when paranoid racist dementia victims are armed.

one person like I said doesn't really compare to an organized attacked

these "protesters" are looking for violent confrontation, that is exactly what they want to incite.

The real fun will come when the Trumpsters start "disrupting" BLM rallies and such, I can already see how that's going to be spun.

Trump is thinking of paying legal fees for the man who punched the protester

I hold those who wish to become a world leader to a much higher standard than some random protesters. For a president to subvert the rule of law in this way would be truly disturbing. I just can't see Bernie Sanders paying legal fees for some BLM hothead who got into a physical fight with a Trump supporter. He would never do that.

Smart move, politically speaking. Shows his "people" that he'll take care of them, and that he's putting his money where his mouth is. Morally, it's definitely fuzzy at best, but that's hardly a leap for Trump.
