Liberals Gone Wild: Protests, flag burnings, Trump hung in effigy

Do liberals want a second civil war? Screengrab: YouTube

So much for accepting the results of Tuesday’s election.  On Wednesday night, protests broke out in a number of cities across the country as unhinged liberals took to the streets in an apparent effort to change the outcome of the election.  Naturally, the protests involved flag burnings and the obligatory hanging of President-elect Donald Trump.

Of course, shouts of “Black Lives Matter” were heard:

Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?

Temper tantrum indeed…

Of course.

But that was then and this is now, so dissent is patriotic once again.

USA Today reported:

Protesters took to the streets Wednesday in at least 10 cities to march against president-elect Donald Trump – and numerous college students and faculty leaders took to social media to announce support groups and even postponed exams.

Protests were underway in Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Boston, Washington, D.C., Portland, Ore., St. Paul, Minn. and several other cities. An estimated 2,000 protesters shouted angrily in downtown Seattle, expressing their frustration at the Trump victory over Democrat and former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, who won 228 electoral votes to Trump’s 279.

Police in riot gear struggled to hold back scores of protesters in some of the cities as protesters chanted “Not My President” and “No Racist USA.” The protests were mostly peaceful. Seattle police said they were investigating a report of a shooting near the site of the protest in that city, but it may not have involved protesters.

Some sore losers even demanded Trump be impeached…

USA Today added:

The unrest culminated when two separate anti-Trump demonstrations converged in front of the Trump International Hotel. They chanted and yelled “Impeach Donald Trump” and toward the end yelled at police officers who stood guard at the hotel entrance.

And, USA Today said, some even disrobed in protest:

In New York, thousands of demonstrators blocked off streets around Trump Tower near the busy intersection of 57th Street and Fifth Avenue, chanting “hey hey, ho ho, Donald Trump has got to go” and “p—y grabs back,” a reference to taped conversations of Trump making lewd commentary about women. One woman protester was topless while another climbed on top of a tree to see the activity. Taxis, city buses and passenger vehicles stood at a standstill.

So we’re supposed to just forget the election and hand the White House to Hillary to appease the mob?

It’s all enough to make one think liberals really do want another civil war in America.

Exit question: Wonder how much Soros money is behind all of this?
