Trump Supporters Stomping Crap Out Of Protester (Again) Really Love USA, Senseless Violence
As Donald Trump has been getting all nostalgic for the good old days of his primary campaign, his supporters have obliged, indulging in yet another outbreak of patriotic, law-and-order-loving violence against a protester, this time during a Trump rally Monday at Cumberland Valley High School, in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania.
The protester can be seen wearing a dark blue shirt and trying to wave a sign, when he is violently hit and shoved down by Trump supporters chanting “USA, USA.” […]
A couple of men in the crowd intervene and help pull him out of the fray before police arrive and escort him out. It is not known whether the rally attendees who helped rescue the man from their fellow Trump supporters were later denounced as white-knighting ***** on social media, but let’s assume they were, because why would they go and spoil the fun like that? In the good old days, protesters would be carried out on a stretcher, after all.
In a sad reflection of how weak America has become, Silver Spring Police Chief Chris Raubenstine told Penn Live that the crowd’s violence wasn’t justified:
“People got to realize that just because you disagree with someone, doesn’t mean you can punch people,” the police chief said.

Raubenstein said the protester had declined medical attention, and also did not want to press charges because he “did what he wanted to get done.” The police chief added that the protester still has the right to file charges later, which is almost like he’s encouraging the troublemaker to seek police retribution against some passionate America-loving fans of the Law and Order candidate.
