Welcome to Guatemalan Politics

June 3, 2016

Trump haters punch, throw eggs at, and break the car windows of people peacefully leaving a Trump rally in San Jose, California while assaulting the police to boot.  “I’ve never seen anything like it in America” said one bystander.  The mayor of San Jose, identified as “a Hillary Clinton supporter,” blamed the violence on Donald Trump for appearing in his town and “causing problems.”  He therefore condoned and encouraged violent attacks on those with whom he disagrees about politics.  (It’s the Mexican way, I suppose).

The media are happy to highlight the violence as the story of the day instead of whatever Trump said during his speech.  Censorship of opposing viewpoints is always the Number One Goal of the Marxist Left (or any other kind of Left).
