Take a look at this video, from the Guardian, interviewing Austin Crites. Austin Crites is the Republican who was peacefully holding an anti-Trump sign at a Trump rally last night when he brutally beaten; one of his assailants screamed “Gun,” which is why Donald Trump was rushed offstage and the news originally reported an assassination attempt at that rally.
“There were people grabbing at my neck so hard, it could have strangled me to death. Other people were grabbing at my balls, other people were kicking me, it was just absolutely nuts.”
