Civil
unrest after the elections was predicted
“This
Quickly Escalates Into Open Warfare” – Why The Government Is
Preparing For Post-Election Chaos
And here just a few hours
later....
I
dislike the Schadenfreude and tone of Info Wars but I am sure they
have the facts right.
If
it had been Clinton that “won” the election the violence from
Trump supporters would, I am sure have been even greater.
I
don’t regard Trump as being responsible. He is but a symbol or an
actor in an impersonal process of political and social collapse that
began a long time ago.
Death
threats against president-elect explode on social media
*********************
“A protestor was struck by a vehicle on the eastbound lanes of Highway 24 although it was not immediately clear what the extent of the victim’s injuries were,” reports Fox 5.
Students
also hit
the streets of
Eugene and Portland, Oregon to protest against a democratic election.
Demonstrators could be heard chanting “bitch” and “f*ck Trump”
as they marched in unison.
Some
of the students burned a U.S. Flag.
The irony of the riots is that many pro-Clinton media outlets previously circulated the talking point that Trump supporters would be likely to stage violent unrest after they lost the election.
Twitter
was also inundated with death threats, with leftists either hoping
for or personally expressing their willingness to carry out Trump’s
assassination.

else," Acevedo said. "I apologize ahead of time, but I'd
rather have these young people exercise their rights peacefully."
