The violence in Chicago over Trump's appearance bears all the hallmarks of Communist tactics.
Chicago Trump Rally Cancelled Due to Protests
Those of us with long memories recall the violence in Chicago at the Democrats' 1968 National Convention fomented by the "Yippies" who, while claiming to have no leader, were really headed by a handful of radicals including self described anarcho-communist Abbie Hoffman. The Yippies' party flag clearly associated them with the broader Communist movement. Hoffman continued his radicalism after Chicago and was arrested in 1986 with Amy Carter at the University of Massachusetts Amherst protesting CIA recruiting on campus. Between Chicago and Amherst, Hoffman spent a number of years running from the law and living underground.
