It’s Happening again folks…..leftists are already gathered in the streets of DC to protest the results of the election (guess they arent too confident in thier own side!) 

How rediculous is it that the left pre-emptively resorts to violence in an attempt to get thier way, only to lecture the entire nation on the use of non-violence, especially for politcal purposes? 

How much of a hypocrite do you have to be to lecture on democracy, but resort to violent intimidation and tactics? 

How far gone do you have to be to demand order and justice, but resort to mob rule? 

I am honestly not sure……

But take a look for yourself: 

Our friends over at Fox News had more on the story: 

Waves of demonstrators gathered at Black Lives Matter Plaza in Washington D.C. on Tuesday night amidst a strong police presence and reports of one minor scuffle.

There were reports of a small skirmish earlier on Tuesday evening, which allegedly broke out after protesters did not comply with orders to move a vehicle that was illegally parked.

There are some reports that one arrest was made, which have not been verified by Fox News.

Demonstrations could carry on past Tuesday as a winner in the presidential race may not be declared for days.

As previously reported by Fox News, a group of protesters has been holding training events for planned demonstrations on the night of the election – specifically around scenarios where President Trump refuses to concede should he lose the election.


The Daily Mail also had this to say: 

The various groups of protesters began to gather from Tuesday afternoon, preparing for a night of demonstrations even as many states still had hours to go until polling stations close.

As night fell on Tuesday, D.C. police lined the streets as they patrolled the 'non-scalable' fence now surrounding the perimeter of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

The groups had planned an eight-hour event at Black Lives Matter Plaza that would include a giant screen showing election results, DJs and performances by bands playing Washington's signature go-go music. A new report claims that they 'planned for months' to launch a new wave of protests from election night.

While some Trump supporters were present, they were vastly outnumbered by anti-Trump protesters and videos showed them being attacked as protesters began to spread through the city.

Earlier in the day, the atmosphere remained party-like but quickly descended into tension as the crowds grew and results began to break.  

According to the Shutdown website, the group warned that it would 'not be the time we need to create disruption to stop a coup - yet' on election night as votes would still be coming in.

'But we'll be in a good place to respond to whatever might happen. This has been a really long and dark era so we're going to be together to process our feelings of hope, anger, fear and exhaustion as a community,' it added.

'Regardless of the results, election-night programming will probably wrap up around midnight so we can be energized and ready to hit the streets again on the 4th.'
