White Nationalists Involved In Bloody Calif. Rally Will Be At GOP Convention

[DonViejo]

Members of a prominent white nationalist group have pledged to provide some unsolicited protection to supporters of Donald Trump at next month’s Republican National Convention in Cleveland, Ohio.

Traditionalist Worker Party spokesman Matt Parrott told McClatchy on Monday that about 30 members of his group, which held a rally at the California state capitol over the weekend where at least five people were stabbed, will head to the convention to “make sure that the Donald Trump supporters are defended from the leftist thugs.”

That was the thinking behind Sunday's rally in Sacramento, which was organized along with the Golden State Skinheads: to publicize what they see as acts of aggression against Trump supporters. The rally dissolved into chaos, with anti-fascist and anarchist protesters physically clashing with the approximately 30 skinheads who showed up at the event. At least 10 people were injured.

No one has yet been arrested for the brawl, but police told the Sacramento Bee that there were injuries on both sides.

3. Cleveland has the excessive, brutal police to esculate republican convention into a warzone

In 2014, the United States Department of Justice published a report that investigated the use of force by the Cleveland Police Department from 2010-2013. The Justice Department found a pattern of excessive force including the use of firearms, tasers, fists, and chemical spray that unnecessarily escalated nonviolent situations, including against the mentally ill and people who were already restrained. As a result of the Justice Department report, the city of Cleveland has agreed to a consent decree to revise its policies and implement new independent oversight over the police force.[163]

On May 26, 2015, the City of Cleveland and the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) released a 105-page agreement addressing concerns about Cleveland Division of Police (CDP) use-of-force policies and practices.

4. Hmmm! Will this make Trump think twice about his "no guns" order at the convention.

When his butt is within range, he might change his mind with these radicals coming, and all.

5. Of course his brown shirts will be there to control the dump Trump.
