55. Well, duh, what happened in 68?
Aside from the riots after Martin Luther King was assassinated.

One of the Other major riots during that time was the Chicago Democratic National Convention riots to end the war that lasted 5 days. The results of that riot: When the convention was finally over, the Chicago police reported 589 arrests had been made and 119 police and 100 protesters were injured.

So now, these idiots, taking their cue from a known drug addict and obese hate monger with millions of dollars at his disposal, declare to all the world they are trying to do the same thing.

Do you think the police just might be a little bit concerned?
