GOP presidential front-runner Donald Trumps scheduled rally in Fountain Hills, Arizona was delayed as protesters shut down the main road using cars and chaining themselves together.
According to AZCentral, protesters lined up early, stopping traffic on the eastbound lanes of Shea Boulevard, the main route into the Phoenix suburb.
As drivers sat in the cars while sheriffs deputies tried to clear the road, protesters chanted, Donald Trump, shut it down. Phoenix is a peoples town.
Other held signs reading Stand against racism.
Security for the Trump rally, expected to draw thousands, is being provided by Sheriff Joe Arpaio, a Trump supporter.
Prior To Trumps address, Arpaio told the assembled crowd that three protesters were taken into custody

I'm so glad that Bernie and his wife weren't especially "polite" to that asshole.

(25,816 posts)Every car was a Mercedes or a BMW. There is a large, fake lake with a huge fountain going. This in an area with very little
water. It is a very posh area. I'm sure that the protesters were not residents. If there is a Democrat in that burg, I'd
be surprised.

the "donald" wouldn't want to call any attention to himself while relaxing from the rigors of the campaign trail.
Especially on a weekend when everyone in Floriduh is hoping to either get tanned, get drunk, or get laid.
Peace out.

Our country is shot to shit, done. If donny gets the nod, we are fucked, short run, long run.

I'm not saying the donald would pay people to cause a media uproar to draw attention to himself.
that would be so unlike him.

(11,546 posts)I know, right? This is definitely not what people expected to see but I think it's going to continue and get louder, on both sides, until after the GE is done.
But I don't blame the protesters at all. Unlike some, I don't think they're fascists. They just don't like hate speech in their communities.
edit - I see - you're not convinced that the protesters are real. Hmmm... maybe! Could be but damn - that would be beyond sad!
Guess that it would be eluding ME!

(16,165 posts)that someone that has nothing but rhetoric and money would pay a few people to make a splash in the news on a slow news day.
Nah, couldn't happen. ever, not here, ever.
Could I point you to the TampaBayTimes, todays edition, peruse the "donalds" butler story on page 9. It's an eye opener, if you didn't know what money can do.
sorry, I can't post links, I am the most untechie carpenter you will ever find.
Peace out.

Trying to stop someone from speaking because you disagree with what they say is fascist.
