Someone needs to remind these thugs that this isn't Istanbul.

Violence broke out Thursday as protesters descended upon a Midtown speech by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

The Turkish leader — whose guards were recently indicted in connection with a wild brawl in Washington, DC — was attempting to address the Turkish American National Steering Committee at the Marriott Marquis in Times Square, according to BuzzFeed News.
As soon as Erdogan enters the stage, a protester can be heard on a Periscope video shouting, “You’re a terrorist! Get out of my country!”
The assembly soon turned into a battle royale, with protesters causing mayhem as security guards hurried them out of the room. The demonstrators can be seen being pummeled by punches as they attempt to leave.

It's amazing how people believe the bullshite our government spouts about spreading democracy and human rights yet we ally ourselves with the likes of Turkey and Saudi Arabia.

This is exactly what our own people need to be doing over here. We can learn from these BASED TURKMEN.

The protestor was beat up for calling Erdogan a terrorist and told him to leave our country.
Getting shite stomped is a little extreme don't you think?

Oh yes. It's totally ok for a foreign Presidents goon squad to beat up our own citizens in our own country. That just sounds great.

If anyone is gonna beat up American protestors, it should be American police.

Well, that's certainly more acceptable than foreign goons doing it. If they aren't being violent of breaking the law, there's no need for anyone to beat them up though.

I watched the video and it was other attendees that "pummeled" the protesters. People need to stop thinking they can go to a private event and show their asses. If this was a public event ....then, ok....but it wasn't.

I agree, but I have to admit I am happy someone got their arse kicked. The dust needs to settle in this country.
