Don't Boo, Vote!
WCNC news in Oregon reports that more than half of the anti-Trump protesters in Portland didn't even bother to vote in the recent presidential election.
112 people were arrested during the demonstrations which turned violent in some cases - records show that 35 protesters did not return a ballot paper and that a further 35 were not registered to vote.
25 protesters did vote and the status of the remaining 17 is still unclear.
As President Obama said recently : "Don't boo, vote!"
Don't Boo, Vote (06/11/16)
President Obama gives a masterclass in this YouTube video in how to deal with a 'heckler' at one of his rallies.
Donald Trump is up next but he runs from the stage when a protester (a fellow Republican) holds up a placard bearing the slogan "Republicans against Trump' and for his troubles the protester, a young man named Austyn Crites, got beaten up.
Austyn Crites commented later:
"There were people booing, that's expected right? Then all of a sudden these people next to me are just starting to get violent. They are grabbing at my arm, trying to rip the sign out of my hand," he said.
"People started going crazy, these people who couldn't grab the sign, they started tackling me and then it just piled on. Someone yelled something about a gun. I was yelling down there: 'There is no gun, I only have a sign'.
The man is a bully and a buffoon - an embarrassment to all decent Americans.
