More than 1,000 counter-protesters showed up to oppose a rally for freedom of speech. This is just how far left the left has gotten. They want to shut down anyone who is pro-America or pro-Trump…
“I learned that they thought my vote was a hate crime,” Kathryn Townsend, who said she voted for Donald Trump in 2016, told Seattle’s Q13 Fox.
Fox News reports:
Five people were arrested as fights broke out and at least one American flag was burned Saturday after a college Republican rally in Seattle drew counter-protesters.

Go figure…They protest the police who are keeping them safe while they burn the American flag.
As the event got underway, supporters chanted “U-S-A!, U-S-A!,” and signs included one that read, “We died for liberty not socialism.”
