[Mega] MAGA Super Trump Mega Thread

Shortly after the event began, scuffles broke out. Counterdemonstrators carried their own signs, including one that read “Love Trumps Hate,” and some chanted expletives against Trump.

Officers quickly separated the pro- and anti-Trump groups, allowing the latter to gather on a broad stairway, where they continued to chant and wave signs.

The groups continued to trade taunts — “Get a job!” was one volleyed at the counterdemonstrators — and chants and shouts reverberated through the rotunda. Someone — not police — sprayed a chemical irritant, causing some scattering and coughing on both sides.

Eventually, all of the counterdemonstrators left the building, and the pro-Trump group continued its rally. Although the event had been scheduled to run until 4 p.m., it was over by 2 p.m.

St. Paul police spokesman Steve Linders said afterward that officers arrested five people who were fleeing the Capitol for allegedly setting off fireworks and smoke bombs and spraying chemical irritant inside the building. State Patrol spokeswoman Lt. Tiffani Nielson said her officers arrested a sixth person who was cited for disorderly conduct.

Violence broke out Saturday at a rally in Berkeley aimed at expressing support for President Trump.

The rally and march were slated to begin at Martin Luther King Jr. Civic Center Park. But the pro-Trump contingent was met by Trump critics. Some shoving and punching occurred, and police were trying to maintain order.

The pro-Trump crowd marched several blocks but faced resistance from counter-protesters.

The East Bay Times reported there were several incidents in which protesters were punched, and at least one case where someone was pepper sprayed. Reporters at the scene said some of those involved had bloodied faces. At least one arrest was made.

KCBS radio reported that at least some of the counter-protesters appear to be members of the so-called black bloc, a group that UC Berkeley officials blamed for many of the problems on campus last month.

The self-described anarchists or anti-fascists have left school and law enforcement agencies struggling to cope with their tactics.

The term “black bloc” was used to describe the tight wedges of black-clad protesters in helmets and masks who appeared in street demonstrations in Germany in the 1970s, confounding efforts to single out, identify and prosecute individuals.

Kent police are looking for a gunman who allegedly walked onto a man’s driveway and shot him, saying “Go back to your own country.”

The victim, a 39-year-old Sikh man, was working on his vehicle in his driveway in Kent’s East Hill neighborhood about 8 p.m. Friday when he was approached by an unknown man, Kent police said, after talking with the victim.

An altercation followed, with the victim saying the suspect made statements to the effect of “Go back to your own country.” The victim was shot in the arm.

The victim described the shooter as a 6-foot-tall white man with a stocky build. He was wearing a mask covering the lower half of his face, the victim said.
