The thugs in black you are watching protest in Minneapolis and Denver are a standard feature of big anti-war protests: black bloc anarchists. They hail from several sources: the SDS, the usual radical lefty groups. A lot of them are stupid high school kids. They were a presence at every big anti-war demonstration in DC.

Mostly they try to make faux stand-offs with the police. Usually after 30-60 minutes their nerves falter and attention wanders and they meander off. Sometimes they run in big packs while the police are distracted by a demonstration and break windows. Now and then, they will encounter a small group of counter-protestors in feeder demonstrations and beat them up.

None of this is ever covered by the MSM because it would discredit the anti-war movement they support.

“Separately, dozens of self-described anarchists wearing black clothing ran through the streets a few blocks from the march site.”

Did they cover their faces like I have seen them do at protests in San Fran, Berkeley, and Santa Cruz. That covered-face look is so KKK.

I just got back from downtown St. Paul at the RNC, and it is mostly really boring. Don’t let a few knuckleheads get the attention. Delegates are friendly, the protesters were friendly, cops seem to be in a good mood.

I have seen these loonies on TV breaking windows, tying up traffic, setting fires, etc. and it has disgusted me. But seeing it in my own city is way too up close and personal. It really breaks my heart. It’s as if they had come to my own front yard and thrown rocks through my windows. I want revenge! I want these vandals thrown in jail and kept there! Surely the damage they are doing is enough to warrent a felony conviction, isn’t it? This is NOT free speech, it is criminal, and it’s time for severe penalties. I don’t want them in jail for a few hours, I want them in jail for a few years!

This has been your history moment from Tennessee Dave.

Oh jeez… what is it with you people from Tennessee wanting to come down to San Antonio and always stir up trouble? We just wanted to mind our own business and grow some cotton, but “Nooooo”, you guys had to go and start a war….

Stay home, thank you, we’ll make our own flags ! lol

Analyzing a War Protest…

Peaceful demonstration is fine. But then there were, as usual, those who ‘created disturbances’ or ‘confronted police’ or ‘vandalized property’. Stepping over the peaceful demonstration line is always the part wher…

The “RNC Welcoming Committee” had bags of feces and urine in a recent raid by police. Of course, St. Paul liberal city council member Dave Thune is defending these far-left zealots.

I guess that bags of human waste is just free speech. Reports indicate that they also broke windows on several lots.

I’ll try again.

Oh the irony: poo-bags hurling poo-bags.

Ah hope ah have offended no doily wave-uhs.

Is it just me or does anyone find it ironic that folks with peace signs on their bumpers are slashing tires, lighting fires and breaking windows?

Saw some very edifying footage of a protester in St. Paul who failed to obey a police command and received a fountain of pepper spray right in the face. Their reaction was … cartoon-like.

You want to resist authority, no problem, resist this…LOL
