Fresh off their perceived win less than a week ago forcing the Trump campaign to cancel a planned event in Chicago, the radical left is feeling their oats and making plans to continue to use violence, “civil disobedience” and bullying to deny Donald Trump opportunities to speak.
(Breitbart) – With little fanfare and almost no news media attention, some of the same radical groups involved in shutting down Donald Trump’s Chicago rally last week are plotting a mass civil disobedience movement to begin next month.
They intend to march across the East Coast in order to spark a “fire that transforms the political climate in America.”
The operation, calling itself Democracy Spring, is threatening “drama in Washington” with the “largest civil disobedience action of the century.” The radicals believe this will result in the arrest of thousands of their own activists.
“We will demand that Congress listen to the People and take immediate action to save our democracy. And we won’t leave until they do — or until they send thousands of us to jail,” the website for Democracy Spring declares, channeling rhetoric from the Occupy movement.
The group is backed by numerous organizations, including the George Soros-funded groups MoveOn.org, the Institute for Policy Studies, and Demos.
The pro-Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) MoveOn.org has been playing a prominent role in organizing anti-Trump activism, including last weekend’s shutdown of the billionaire’s rally at the University of Illinois at Chicago Pavilion.
Another group endorsing Democracy Spring is the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA). The DSA’s Chicago branch drove protesters to last weekend’s nixed Chicago Trump event, as this reporter exposed.
Let’s jump into our wayback machine and travel back to another time in recent history when leftists thought they were going to “transform the political climate in America” through so-called “civil disobedience” against those they disagreed with.
Chicago hosted Democrat National Convention in 1968. That event became the most violent political gathering in modern history. The radical leftists threw temper tantrums like ill-behaved children when they didn’t get their way. Chicago Police, after enduring all manner of abuse from the surly protestors, finally got some payback with their hickory nightsticks. Old-timer cops referred to this as giving smelly protesters some “hickory shampoo”.
The leftists lost in 1968, and the next four years saw plenty more turmoil domestically from the radical left. The Democrats nominated the far left George McGovern and he lost in a landslide.
Everyday Americans identify with Republicans as the party of “law and order” at home and a strong defense abroad.
Today’s Black Lives Matter and the other fringe radicals taking part in the “Democracy Spring” plan to use violence to promote their agenda.
These radicals are utterly tone deaf and will drive people away from their party.
Average Americans don’t take kindly to violent “free speech” protests.
Nor do they like bullies
Those losers shut down Trump’s rally downtown. Then a week later he cleaned up in the primary, getting higher numbers than predicted. Wreck DC and watch his numbers skyrocket …
These guys are as clueless as the Republican political establishment.
It’s time to cut off their welfare checks. If they have time to do this, they have time to work for a living.
Amen. They ought to be too fatigued from job hunting and meager eating to be running around breaking things and beating people.
the “Donald” knew what he was doing setting up a “rally” in the midst of the Chitcago campus to get publicity and media attention with the likes of the #blackliesmatter crowd protesting his (non-)presence while the protesters were trying to get the same media attention by being disruptive.
as they say in “show-biz”, any publicity is (or can be manipulated into) good publicity. the “Donald” got a home-run, the protestors… not so much, haha.
Here you can see what Sheriff David Clarke had to say about these protesters.

Here ya go…
God bless David Clarke.
He called the protesters “riot starters who show up at these things to create chaos” and labeled them a threat to America.
“Donald Trump’s First Amendment rights were squashed last night because of the cancellation of this rally,” he told Fox News’ Neil Cavuto on Saturday and he advised people at the rallies to defend themselves.
“Don’t back down to these bullies and these goons!” he said.
Clarke said the blame for the protests fell at the feet of President Obama and not Trump as many in the media have said.
“The president of the United States is the one that created this division, stoking up racial discord, class warfare, gender warfare for the last eight years,” he said. “For people to blame this on Donald Trump is way out-of-bounds.”
Clarke said Trump was targeted because he is the “biggest threat” to the protesters who are “anarchists” that want “to bring down our legally constituted government.”
“They advocate violence and they advocate chaos to bring down our legally constituted government,” he said. “This has to be crushed.”
I remember the good old days when cops got their “stick time” in on hippy radicals. Do stupid crap, play stupid games, hang with stupid people and you’ll earn stupid prizes.
I never did like those smelly hippies.
