Oh you mean like this guy - this is how you lefties really are. You're the ones causing violence, calling people names, blocking free speech - example - Milo at UC Berkeley, being fascists, etc.

If you right wing nut jobs have the organizational ability and numbers and pocketbook power to force Audi back onto that piece of crap rag, then you go try. Let's take this fight to the marketplace and see who wins. Your minions of red neck unemployed donkey rapists won't stand a chance.

Although there were some incidents of violence - it wasn't the large protests that we have seen from the left.
Here are some of the "violence" and "hostility" presented by NBC at the time:
The day after the vote hailed as a sign of a nation changed, black high school student Barbara Tyler of Marietta, Ga., said she heard hateful Obama comments from white students, and that teachers cut off discussion about Obama's victory.
'Stupid and ineffectual'
Tyler spoke at a press conference by the Georgia chapter of the NAACP calling for a town hall meeting to address complaints from across the state about hostility and resentment.
Another student, from a Covington middle school, said he was suspended for wearing an Obama shirt to school Nov. 5 after the principal told students not to wear political paraphernalia.
The student's mother, Eshe Riviears, said the principal told her: "Whether you like it or not, we're in the South, and there are a lot of people who are not happy with this decision." - He was informed not to wear the t-shirt just as many have been warned not to wear Trump items.
Other incidents include:
Four North Carolina State University students admitted writing anti-Obama comments in a tunnel designated for free speech expression, including one that said: "Let's shoot that (N-word) in the head." I may not like their opinion but it was a Free Speech - I wonder how many Trump comments are on it now - maybe NBC should take a look.
University of Alabama professor Marsha L. Houston said a poster of the Obama family was ripped off her office door. A replacement poster was defaced with a death threat and a racial slur. "It seems the election brought the racist rats out of the woodwork," Houston said. Residents in my area had their Trump signs stolen and defaced - it's bound to happen with ignorant people.
Black figures were hanged by nooses from trees on Mount Desert Island, Maine, the Bangor Daily News reported. The president of Baylor University in Waco, Texas said a rope found hanging from a campus tree was apparently an abandoned swing and not a noose. Mexicans burn effigies of Trump in Easter ritual https://www.buzzfeed.com/jimwaterson...lm9#.laeKJYYk3 Obama didn't corner the market - Trump is being burned too.
Crosses were burned in yards of Obama supporters in Hardwick, N.J., and Apolacan Township, Pa.
A black teenager in New York City said he was attacked with a bat on election night by four white men who shouted 'Obama.'
In the Pittsburgh suburb of Forest Hills, a black man said he found a note with a racial slur on his car windshield, saying "now that you voted for Obama, just watch out for your house." Now how many instances of violence and name calling have been reported against Trump - many more than against Obama and the media relishes in each case.
When you actually put the acts after both elections side by side - the acts committed after Obama's election are squat and done mainly by a few ignorant people - not hundreds of ignorant people we see today.
That real hardworking Americans care about their healthcare enough to challenge their representatives to keep their government hands off of their (government subsidized) healthcare with the repeal of Obamacare. That and how chicken Republican congressional representatives are with either cutting town halls short, canceling them or in the case of one of my senators, the apply named Jeff Flake hasn't even held one.
Don't suppose you remember this do you? Trumpettes usually don't like to be called out in their hypocrisy but I love to do it for them. It makes my day!

Even the "real hardworking Americans" who, due to Obamacare, either lost their health insurance or saw their premiums skyrocket to the point where they couldn't afford them?

Unfortunately I think this kind of behavior is here to stay.
Take it with salt though. This behavior is one of the big reasons they LOST and Trump WON so I think that even though it's so pathetic and annoying, in the end it will help us keep WINNING.
After a month of hate filled rage, all the Dims have done is self inflict: strokes, gnashed teeth, busted blood vessels, bulging temples, extreme hypertension, and brain aneurysms!
Meanwhile, Trump is filling out is cabinet very nicely despite all the futile obstructionism. Also, the pipelines are being built after all the eco-terrorists have been arrested, and the border wall is under construction! The stock market is soaring, and the sun is shining!
Can the Dims keep their hate and rage up for another 7.5 years?
The Republicans are still crying about Obama and he is out of Office so I would say till at least when Trump is impeached.
