A group of protesters attacked Donald Trump supporters who were leaving the candidate's rally in San Jose on Thursday night.
A dozen or more people were punched, at least one person was pelted with an egg and Trump hats grabbed from supporters were set on fire on the ground.
Most of those who clashed with fans of the presumptive Republican nominee were carrying Mexican flags.
It came just hours after he slammed a judge presiding over the case involving Trump University, saying he should be removed over his Mexican heritage.
He said the judge's background is an 'absolute conflict' with his plans to build a border wall, even though the jurist was born in Indiana.
There were no immediate reports of injuries or arrests, but police had declared the gathering an unlawful assembly.

They began moving into the remaining crowd to break it up about 90 minutes after the rally ended, sparking clashes between demonstrators and police.
The crowd, which had numbered over 300 just after the rally, had thinned significantly but those that remained, filling about a city block near the San Jose Convention Center, were rowdy and angry.
Some banged on the cars of Trump supporters as they left the rally and chased after those on foot to frighten them.
Police were keeping their distance from the crowd as the scuffles played out, but keeping them from getting any closer to the convention center.
'Our police officers have done an extremely courageous and professional job so far,' San Jose Mayor Sam Liccardo told The Associated Press by phone. 'We're all still holding our breath to see the outcome of this dangerous and explosive situation.'
The mayor, a Democrat and Hillary Clinton supporter, criticized Trump for coming to cities and igniting problems that local police departments had to deal with.
'At some point Donald Trump needs to take responsibility for the irresponsible behavior of his campaign,' Liccardo said.
The presumptive GOP nominee spoke for about 50 minutes at the rally, sniping at Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton and calling her speech on foreign policy earlier in the day 'pathetic' and 'sad to watch.'

Protesters before the speech included Adam Rivas, a 22-year-old community college student who was born and raised in San Jose, was holding a spray-painted sign that read 'Dump Trump.'
Rivas said he was particularly disturbed by Trump's remarks about Mexicans.
'For any one Mexican here he bashes, there are about 20 Mexicans out there who are hard-working and just doing their job,' he said.
Trump supporter Debbie Tracey, a U.S. Navy veteran from San Jose, she came to hear Trump speak, she left his rally with two hats a T-shirt and a handful of signs that said 'Veterans for Trump.'
Passing in front of a wall of protesters, many chanting in Spanish, she said she supported Trump's call for a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border.
'I'll go help build the wall because if you are going to come to this country, land of opportunity, you should be here legally,' she said.
Earlier on Thursday Trump said it was inappropriate for judge Gonzalo Curiel to oversee the Trump University lawsuit because his parents were Mexican immigrants.
The presumptive Republican presidential nominee has vowed to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border in an attempt to clamp down on illegal immigration.
'I'm building a wall. It's an inherent conflict of interest,' Trump told the Wall Street Journal.
He said Curiel had 'an absolute conflict' because of his 'Mexican heritage', although the judge was born in Indiana.
Trump also suggested Curiel's membership of a Latino lawyers group and his supposed friendship with one of the Trump University plaintiffs' lawyers made him biased.
However, the lawyer in question, Jason Forge, said he was not friends with Curiel and that they had only worked together once as prosecutors.

[h=1]Protesters Punch, Throw Eggs at Trump Supporters in San Jose[/h]
[h=2]Trump hats grabbed from supporters were set on fire[/h](SAN JOSE, California) — A group of protesters attacked Donald Trump supporters who were leaving the presidential candidate’s rally in San Jose on Thursday night. A dozen or more people were punched, at least one person was pelted with an egg and Trump hats grabbed from supporters were set on fire on the ground.
Police stood their ground at first but after about 90 minutes moved into the remaining crowd to break it up and make arrests. At least four people were taken into custody, though police didn’t release total arrest figures Thursday night. One officer was assaulted, police Sgt. Enrique Garcia said.





There were no immediate reports of injuries and no major property damage, police said.
The crowd, which had numbered over 300 just after the rally, thinned significantly as the night went on, but those that remained near the San Jose Convention Center were rowdy and angry.
Some banged on the cars of Trump supporters as they left the rally and chased after those on foot to frighten them.

As the New York Times put it, "...the difference in I.Q. points between the groups is quite significant.

IQ distribution by race/ethnicity:

• Ashkenazi Jews = 115
• East Asians = 106
• Whites = 100
• South East Asians = 87
• Non-White Hispanics = 86
• American Blacks = 85 (average 25% White admixture)
• Middle East and North Africans = 84
• Sub-Saharan Blacks = 67 (Only 2% of Whites score this low)
• Australian Aborigines = 62

The mayor of San Jose, Democrat Sam Liccardo, reacted angrily to the events. Not that he was particularly upset at the violent mob that attacked innocent Americans, of course.


No, his ire was directed at Mr. Trump. "At some point Donald Trump needs to take responsibility for the irresponsible behavior of his campaign," the mayor said. Apparently it was downright "irresponsible" of Trump to even set foot in California's third largest city.

th


No doubt a Hillary supporter.

That mayor tells it all. Blaming Trump is like blaming the U.S. instead of ISIS.

Many of the thugs that attacked the peaceful Trump supporters in San Jose were illegals. They burned the American flag and laughed at police
