Former NYPD cop Cardillo was on CNN/Don Lemon tonight. The three black “activists” put against him were just BALLISTIC with anger over his gun picture. They think the marches and restaurant disruptions are great, but the gun photo is just beyond beyond.

My question would be, “Why did not the restaurant management or owners call the police? Since as far as known, none did , it appears that the restaurant owners and managers were a part of the “protest”.

Do that crap in my neighborhood, and the guns won’t be pointing at cameras. Seeing as how in most Sunday brunch places, at least every other table will be seated with well armed CCW holders.

As a side note for these vermin: my wife and I believe in equality. That’s why we have caliber and magazines in common.

new scarf for brunch, $20

brunch $35

getting what you voted for??? priceless...

Guilty

Just read her first paragraph...does she really think Trayvon Martin was killed by a police officer?

Hate is nothing to celebrate.

So let me get this straight. Pro-life Protestors are not go on an abortion clinic property and “harass”, yet these liberals hypocrite can go on a property and harass people.

Looks like the author of this piece would have preferred beheadings.

FTA: The point is to confront non-black people with realities that black people are confronted with every day.

Yeah, just last week, I walked into a restaurant to disrupt black people who were peacefully going about eating their breakfast. This is beyond stupid.

“Activists like graduate student Wazi Maret Davis, say they were deliberate in their choice of restaurants, selecting places they considered were “white spaces” – which included an Oakland Apple Store. The point is to confront non-black people with realities that black people are confronted with every day.”

UCSC cuts student activist's suspension
Santa Cruz Sentinel 6/7/07
By Roger Sideman
Alette Kendrick, the UC Santa Cruz student who faced the harshest penalty for her actions during a protest of the UC Board of Regents, struck a deal Friday with campus officials, who reduced her suspension from three years to two academic quarters in exchange for a written apology and 100 hours of community service.
On Oct. 18, demonstrators blocked the three exits of a campus lecture hall, preventing the regents from leaving. The protesters were met by police who used pepper spray and batons to clear the way. Kendrick, 21, was arrested by campus police on three felony counts of battering a police officer. But the charges were reduced and last month Kendrick pleaded no contest to two misdemeanor charges of resisting arrest and disturbing a lawful public assembly. She issued a public apology before the court.

Organizers of Saturday's Millions March in Oakland made sure white protesters didn't take over the event.

"I'm of the belief that there is most definitely a place for property destruction — for raging and all that," said Wild Tigers, another Black Brunch organizer, graduate student, and longtime activist, "but the reality is that, as black people, it's very different for us to be out there on the streets smashing windows at Starbucks. Because, if I do that, I could get a bullet. For white people out there, doing that is a privilege."
