The recent violence at a Donald Trump rally was an un-American display of violence and suppression of free speech. But even worse. it was an example of a dangerous new alliance between a number of radical leftist groups including Black Lives Matter and the Muslim Students Association.
It is not the first time the left and front groups for the Muslim Brotherhood have teamed up and caused riots. They did so to awful effect in Ferguson.
Muslim groups have stepped up efforts to co-opt protests over the fatal shooting of Michael Brown., with a drive to equate the teen’s death to the death of a radical Islamist shot during an FBI raid in 2009, a Washington-based security watchdog group is warning.
They joined forces again and added some more of the usual suspects for the operation in Chicago.
“Planning for the event started Monday night, when leaders from a range of groups gathered in a campus lecture hall. They included the Black Student Union, the Muslim Student Assn. and the Fearless Undocumented Association, which advocates for immigrants in the country illegally.
Other local and national activism groups also got involved, including some local labor organizations, Black Lives Matter and MoveOn.Org, which has endorsed Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders.
