Police made numerous arrests as an anti-Israel mob from the group Behind Enemy Lines attempted to attack the Israeli consulate in Chicago.

The chaos began as delegates held their ceremonial roll call to formally nominate Kamala Harris as the party’s presidential candidate.

A smaller pro-Israel group gathered peacefully nearby.

The mob attacked police officers and anyone who tried to stop them from burning an American flag.

“They’re also burning the American flag.”
“F**k this country… burn it down. Burn it down,” the extremist shouted.

At what point does a solution with a diameter of 5.56mm, a weight of 62 grains, and a velocity of 3200fps become the correct choice?

Hey, Muslims, where’s Ismail Haniyeh? Where are your “resistance” leaders?

More protesters than attendees again?

    When they say “DNC protesters,” they mean DNC controlled protesters, because they really are just DNC attendees that couldn’t get in.

    They are all Hamasholes, inside and out.

Is the consulate considered Israeli owned land? If so, can they shoot anyone who breaks into the consulate legally?
Like a parking ticket only a bit messier for the janitor.

    If by “Israeli owned land” you mean “Israeli sovereign territory”, the answer is that neither embassies nor consulates are the sovereign territory of the country they represent. They remain the sovereign territory of the host country. A baby born to foreigners in a US embassy abroad is not thereby a US citizen.

    Could the guards shoot anyone who broke in to the consulate itself? Surely yes, just like any home or business could do so in similar circumstances, where a bloodthirsty mob is besieging the premises and some of its members break in. The occupants are entitled to assume that the intruders mean them serious harm, and to respond with deadly force.

    In addition to that, though, being a consulate means it’s likely that the security guards have diplomatic immunity, so Illinois law couldn’t touch them. Even if they have no immunity, they could stay inside the consulate and Illinois authorities could not enter to arrest them. Then Israel could negotiate with the USA to get them out safely.

The people with signs saying “bring the war home” will be surprised if and when it does come home.

It seems like they left their swastikas at home

Watching the news you wouldn’t even know the Democrats are rioting outside so that they can get in and kill people.

Watching the news you would think its all roses and pretty pictures of the sun.

Watching the news will not give you the news.

You needed tight security and proof of identity to get into the convention which Democrats oppose on the border and voting booths while Old Glory was burned by rioters encouraged by Iran That was the reality last night as Obama sneered sat the so called “real Americans” who supported Trump

I’m so in love with this dirty city /
This crazy grid of desire /
The festive icons along the way /
The boardwalk, the lovers, the house on fire…
