FOUNTAIN HILLS, AZ – Protesters lined the streets of Fountain Hills on Saturday morning to block traffic to the Donald Trump rally.
Air15 video showed protesters blocking Shea Boulevard with a couple Maricopa County Sheriff Deputies on scene.
A tow truck was able to move two vehicles but the protestors remained. At one point, a jeep plowed into the protesters. No one appeared to injured.
No arrests were made.
So far no arrests have been made. I expect all that has changed. Sheriff Joe is on the prowl, supporting Trump in Tucson.
I am drawn on this one. I do not believe in blocking egress. I don’t believe in blocking roads. That behavior is the behavior of Operation Rescue.
On the other hand, I sympathize with the protestors. Sometimes people have to do extreme things to stop unacceptable behavior.
I wonder how much of this protest is about immigration and how much is about Trump’s overall nastiness and inappropriateness. Stay tuned.
I hope no one is hurt.
