San Jose police herded Trump supporters into mob

In this op-ed today by a Trump supporter, describing how leftwing thugs broke his nose at a Trump rally in San Jose, there was the very significant sentence, highlighted below:

My trouble began once the rally was over.

My friend and I joined a crowd of Trump supporters who had all left the convention center around the same time. The garage where we had parked our car was right next to the building, but police were directing everyone around the block to another garage entrance instead. The farther we walked, the fewer Trump fans were with us — people began peeling off to go to restaurants or bars in the area, or to other garages nearby.

And suddenly, there were protesters everywhere. Some were holding Mexican flags, or burning American ones. They were yelling “F— Trump!” at us and cornering us. [emphasis mine]

In other words, the San Jose police, who had been given the stand-down order by their mayor, who hates Trump and has sent campaign money to Clinton, had arranged things so that Trump supporters couldn’t simply go to their cars. They had to run the gauntlet through these violent thugs, without police protection, thus guaranteeing that some ot them would be hurt.

Conscious Choice cover

Now available in hardback and paperback as well as ebook!

 

From the press release: In this ground-breaking new history of early America, historian Robert Zimmerman not only exposes the lie behind The New York Times 1619 Project that falsely claims slavery is central to the history of the United States, he also provides profound lessons about the nature of human societies, lessons important for Americans today as well as for all future settlers on Mars and elsewhere in space.

 
Conscious Choice: The origins of slavery in America and why it matters today and for our future in outer space, is a riveting page-turning story that documents how slavery slowly became pervasive in the southern British colonies of North America, colonies founded by a people and culture that not only did not allow slavery but in every way were hostile to the practice.  
Conscious Choice does more however. In telling the tragic history of the Virginia colony and the rise of slavery there, Zimmerman lays out the proper path for creating healthy societies in places like the Moon and Mars.

 

“Zimmerman’s ground-breaking history provides every future generation the basic framework for establishing new societies on other worlds. We would be wise to heed what he says.” —Robert Zubrin, founder of founder of the Mars Society.

 

All editions are available at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and all book vendors, with the ebook priced at $5.99 before discount. The ebook can also be purchased direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit, in which case you don't support the big tech companies and I get a bigger cut much sooner.

 

Autographed printed copies are also available at discount directly from me (hardback $24.95; paperback $14.95; Shipping cost for either: $5.00). Just email me at zimmerman @ nasw dot org.

    Perhaps it is time for the Trump fans to put on their “big-boy” pants, cowboy up, and start busting some illegal immigrant skulls…..we didn’t win WWII by kissing the Furher’s ass and licking el duce’s boots….

    I’m waiting for the day when one of these situations happens in a “shall issue” state. Would these anti-Trump (anti-American) protesters be so clueless as to attack where the victims have a high probability of being armed?

  • Edward

    I think I stand corrected. It is my city’s police that are the hosers. Eh?

    I live in San Jose. I had a family member who attended the rally. Later that evening, he told me he was actually in fear of his life as he left the event. A person in his party was hit in the head with a bottle that was thrown. He might have suffered a concussion.

    What was not reported was that it had all the hallmarks of a race riot. Primarily Hispanic thugs–estimated by the media to be about 300 in number– attacking white people. In another day and time, the nation would be outraged when a group of people holding Mexican flags attack another group of people holding American flags. These days, in this State and in this nation, it is much too commonplace. Pray for the Republic.

    It would be interesting if Trump contracted with the bikers from the Rolling Thunder event and UAW to provide security at his rallies.

    BTW, reading op-eds in the Bay Area newspapers, the Democrats may be ignoring the beatings, but there is evidence that the independents are not.

    Much as decent citizens may want to strike back, it’s probably falling into Hillary’s strategy.
    The moment Trump supporters try to fight back, especially if they show a weapon, they’ll see TV cameras magically appear followed by the police. The news fill be full of “Trump brownshirts” “attacking poor people of color”and interviews with tearful Hispanic old ladies and children.
    As the election nears Democrats (and some NeverTrumps) will go on TV to talk about how they fear for the future of democracy and call on Obama to ban Trump ads because they incite violence.
    The networks will “coincidentally” run documentaries on the rise of Hitler.

    Sorry Mitch , but this match is not going to be postponed…the white man has ran out of cheeks to turn , and its now or never. Doubts? Just look at the EU…Who would have ever thought, EVER, that the germans of the 21st century new modus operandi would be and is: drop trousers and grab ankles..????? Allowing their own women to be savaged by camel marrying Morlocks. Where is Hitler when you need him? Merkle? I’ve dropped things off in the toilet bowl better than her.I’m an American born veteran who used to be proud of my german heritage, until now.Many things are worse than death , slavery at the top of the list.

    How did we reach the point where the police are actual bad guys. The good guys become the bad guys if they defend themselves. The media doesn’t even pretend to be objective.

    There seems to be no good thing to be done???

  • PeterF

    I think the police started to be the bad guys under Clinton with his attempted use of the ATF to go after “right wing” groups.
    Thats when the SWAT teams started wearing black clothes and masks. Just like the bad guys.
    Now they are actually committing highway robbery, other wise known as “asset forfeiture”. Just like the bad guys.
    They stand by while the corrupt socialist politicians send their thugs to rough up the citizens. Just like the bad guys.

    Mitch, The cameras were there, but since the correct people were being assaulted, very little of that footage will ever be seen by the public. When a Trump aide touches an aggressive reporter, multiple videos from multiple angles surface and are aired repeatedly during prime time. Want to bet that they won’t be able to identify most of the perps in San Jose?

    I do pray for our republic. The hour of reckoning may be close at hand.
