Huntington Beach Pro-Trump March Turns Into Attack on Anti-Trump Protesters, OC Weekly
Right now, the world is hearing a tale from Huntington Beach of a pro-Donald Trump rally that erupted in violence after a masked anarchist pepper-sprayed one of the march organizers, Jennifer Sterling, without provocation. Trump supporters are crowing that they gave counter-protesters a taste of MAGA medicine, and are no doubt emboldened to go after any cucks, snowflakes and SJWs who stand in their way.
Especially if it's the press—namely, the OC Weekly—trying to do our job.
It started peacefully enough. On an overcast Saturday morning, a mini-festival popped up at Bolsa Chica State Beach as part of a nationwide effort to show support for Trump. An overwhelmingly white crowd (yeah, there were some tokens—good for them!) of old people, families, teens, and even pups filtered onto the sand. Many wore red "Make America Great Again" hats or waved the Stars and Stripes, "Don't Tread on Me" and "Blue Live Matters" flags. And then there were the signs: "Keep Orange County Republican" and "The Silent Majority" and some Pepes and other such fun.
"The Star Spangled Banner" played. Speeches would be recited. Dana Rohrbacher rambled. Doves would be released. A Marine did pull-ups. And then counter-protesters showed up around 10 a.m., down the way from the party.
"We feel like it's important to come out here and be heard," Organizer Jordan Hoiberg said shortly after arriving. He's a Newport Beach resident and a member of Socialist Party USA. "As Frederick Douglas said 'Power concedes nothing without a demand' so we're here today to make demands...We're going to make sure we're heard but we're not looking to provoke any kind of physical confrontation with the Trump supporters in any way."
