Turkish Security Agents Attacked Protestors in DC
Did you see that story on MSM this morning about how Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdoğan’s security detail attacked protestors across from the Turkish embassy in Washington? Me neither. If there is any coverage at all, it’s about how “violence” broke out a protest yesterday. Watch this video:
The guys in black suits are Erdoğan’s security detail. The protestors are across the street. Apparently forgetting that they were in the US, Erdoğan’s goons attacked the protestors, violently punching and kicking them. DC police were caught completely off guard, and had to hustle to stop the attack. We understand that none of the black suit guys were arrested, just shuffled back to their side of the street.
This is what happens when the President of the United States lends credibility to an authoritarian despot by inviting him to visit in the WH. This can’t end soon enough.
Thanks for this. I’m finally seeing it on the MSM now, but saw it here first. It doesn’t surprise me in the least that the bodyguards of a would be dictator would think it acceptable to attack protesters in the country of another would be dictator.
1Erdoğan’s guards pulled this shit the last time they were in DC too.
Trump was ‘honored’ to host a fellow disgusting pig dictator who has no idea what America is supposed to be about.
2They need schooled on the meaning of freedom of speech.
3They also need to be arrested so they can learn the meaning of assault and Erdogan should not be allowed back in this country.
Ever! But it’s all swept under the rug so as not to embarrass the Thug-in-Chief.
Shameful!
4What they need is to get the sh!t beat outa them by 100 lb girls and geeks. THIS should have caused a major international incident, but if the damage were all on the other side, what do you bet WE’D be the aggressors?
5Diplomatic immunity stretches to this? It looked like some of the police were hitting protesters, too.
6The dictator should never have been welcomed to our Whitehouse. But then our fake president never met a dictator he doesn’t admire. Lock the faker up.
7Anybody else reminded of the footage from the protests in Aladamnbama in the 50’s?. El Jefe, I think you’re right about the cops. I’ll bet at least some of them are looking back at this in disgust. As much as they have to work with security details, I imagine they probably get a mindset that they’re protecting the foreign “guests” from protesters, projecting their own noble intentions onto others. It’s gotta be disconcerting to know that a lot of folks will view their involvement as collusion with those thugs. Until the douchebag-in-chief is impeached, somebody should probably come up with a training program to prepare our law enforcement establishment in identifying who’re the wolves, and who’re the sheep. And that it can change in an instant. This is truly repugnant.
8So people from a middle eastern country came and attacked Americans on US soil? Isn’t that the textbook conservative definition of terrorism?
9Looks like a few protestors were arrested, probably for violently assaulting a Turkish visitor’s foot with their stomachs or heads.
It was sickening enough when Donnie congratulated Erdogan on his despotic “election” “victory.”
First I thought that if I go abroad I’d wear a Canadian flag. Then I thought, **** it, this MF is not going to make me ashamed of my country. I’ll wear an American flag and a big F Trump badge. The majority didn’t vote for this.
10Were the Turkish thugs arrested? If not, why not? There was no one near their dictator, the protestors were across the street. Why are those thugs not arrested?
11@Tilphousia
The reason they were not and will not ever be arrested is called Diplomatic Immunity
12Yeah. I saw this earlier on the flat somewhere. Dirty bastards assaulting Americans. Orange Whore has no better understanding of freedom than Erdogan.
13Bananas, the thugs can be declared ‘personna non grata’ and stripped of any immunity they have. They are then subject to US law. Of course traitor trump would never inconvenience a fellow dictator thug.
14I guess we should just be grateful that this “security detail” didn’t draw their guns and start shooting OUR CITIZENS, right? With absolutely no consequences?
And from the White House: zero. Nothing to see here.
Stomach-turning. And absolutely terrifying.
