Did someone mention beatings? Same damn thing as happened in Charlottesville here, eh?
Quote:Trump supporters pelted by eggs, punches can sue San Jose cops after attack, court says
Supporters of then-presidential candidate Donald Trump who were met with flying eggs and punches from counter protesters during a June 2016 San Jose campaign rally can sue the city’s police for allegedly failing to protect them, a new court ruling said.
Trump supporters – many sporting red Make America Great Again hats – who were attending a rally at the McEnery Convention Center were met with hundreds of anti-Trump protesters as they were shepherded out of the building via a single exit. One plaintiff claims an officer told her police had been instructed not to intervene in the melee. The lawsuit says police arrested three people for allegedly assaulting officers at the scene, but no one for attacking Trump supporters, the Chronicle reported
On Friday, the Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco said, if the allegations are true, “the officers acted with deliberate indifference to a known and obvious danger” and violated the constitutional rights of Trump supporters.
The attendees allege the officers shepherded them into a violent crowd of protesters and actively prevented them from reaching safety,” Judge Dorothy Nelson said in the 3-0 ruling that upheld a federal judge’s refusal to dismiss the suit. “The officers continued to implement this plan even while witnessing the violence firsthand.”
There're hours of video which prove these allegations. Even the commie-ass nutty ninth circuit agrees that these left-wing thugs, and the left wing officials running their cities, need to be stopped from pursuing their crazed violent conspiracies, eh?
