[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The type of demonstrations that took place in California this afternoon protesting Trump's speech at the CAGOP will increase the support for Trump among those who are on the fence. Played on TV repeatedly and exploited by Trump it will turn even more people in his support.

The thought that also passed my mind was why these 200-300 people protesting were not at work or at school.[/quote]

I was thoroughly disgusted at the protests last night and those today.  And, yes, it will increase support for Trump.  Do these people protesting not understand that?
As they chanted, destroyed police cars, beat Trump supporters, and waved the Mexican flag, it made me like Trump just a little bit more.  
These people certainly have a right to protest, but not a right to destroy cars and hurt others.  [/quote]

It made me feel proud. It made me want to go out there and protest against Trump myself. No jumping on cars or fist fights, obviously, but I would feel really good about holding some anti-Trump signs and shouting. i think he is a dangerous and menacing figure in America right now, and if he wins I will feel that I at least made an effort to voice some strong, strong dislike for him before it's too late. Like, I could brag to my grandchildren that I had stood up to him while others just thought, "What a douche bag" and let him get elected.

My kids won't let me go to any protests, though.  :wink: [/quote]

You were PROUD as the protestors destroyed police cars?  You were PROUD as protestors dragged Trump supporters out of their cars?  You were PROUD when protestors bloodied the face of a Trump supporter?  You were PROUD that these protestors tried to take away the 1st amendment rights of Trump and his supporters simply because they disagree with him?
You have weird criteria for pride.  [/quote]
She supports everything she hates about Trump as long as it's against people she does not like....maybe it because Trump is white or a male who knows with these type of people. All we know is anything is justified.[/quote]

No, that would be too easy for you. I'm proud that people are standing against someone filled with hatred, someone pitting Americans against each other and feeding his campaign based on the weakest, basest parts of our society. I also believe that immigration is not a right -- what I don't agree with is the hatred against immigrants that Trump and his supporters have.

He also has the worst personality imaginable. He does all the things we teach our kids not to do (at least I do): ridiculing others, lying, encouraging violence. He's anathema to me, and I think he's very dangerous. I see this as a pivotal pint in history -- read, "How could people have let that happen?" if he gets elected. So I'm PROUD that people are enraged, standing up against someone who could be a terrible, terrible president, for the US and for the world.[/quote]

Sorry. All you just spouted does not condone violence. So far all the hyperbole about danger and hatred, the only physical violence done is by these protestors. You can be enraged and protest, but the violence negates everything.
If you say you support this violence you are complicit and just as bad. [/quote]

Wrong, that is one day. We've all seen the multiple instances of anti-Trump peaceful protesters attacked by Trump supporters after Trump eggs them on, then says they deserved it.

I already said "besides getting on police cars and fighting" in my first post. But if these people stood up to Hitler like that, I would be proud of them. Trump is a menace to our society.[/quote]
