‘The sound of our dead bodies’? Baltimore protesters ‘stay militant’ at lighting ceremony
Twitchy ^ | December 4, 2014 | Staff

Protesters seem to be attracted to holiday lighting festivities like moths. As Twitchy reported, a mob of Ferguson protesters crashed the tree lighting in Seattle, surrounding and terrifying young children gathered on stage to perform holiday music. Demonstrators in Philadelphia booed a children’s choir as they tried to sing Christmas carols. And in New York City last night, protesters convened but missed out on their dream to burn down the tree at Rockefeller Center.

Thursday night was the lighting of the Washington Monument in Baltimore, Md., and once again, the promise of families enjoying holiday festivities was too much for Eric Garner demonstrators to resist.

This has to be coordinated, and its coming from the WH, probably from John Podesta.

Why all the attacks on Christmas celibrations, such as tree lighting?

It is just a leftist thing. They despise any symbol of normalcy, standards and decency. Until someone rises and gives them the what for, they will just escalate their lunacy.

They know there will be cameras and press there so all about publicity. Also Leftists love to spread their misery to others.

Why, indeed? Don't they know that they're generating votes for Ted Cruz?

In every crisis is an opportunity:

In this case we have a teachable moment for blacks; the government is not your FRiend.

When I think of it, they want to attack the Christian faith.

Coordinated? With those pre-printed signs that use the exact same layout and typeface as union protest signs?

Seems far-fetched. /s

They also know that liberalism is on the ropes and the conservatives are going to do the needed clean up.

Let’s see - this was happening in 1968 and what happened that year?

The next war has begun, and the feral blacks lurking inside the urban kraals are the shock troops.

And yes, they’re getting their cues and marching orders from the White Hut. Anyone who thinks otherwise is being galactically foolish...

If ebt cards and other benefits were discontinued for these “protesting” hobos, these “protests” would fizzle-out. What a bunch of ignorant, misinformed LIB loons.

Baltimore City and conservatives are mutually exclusive.

I watched a little bit of the coverage of this on the Baltimore news. From the helicopter video, it looked as if the thugs were being held by a police line about 1/2 block away, but in the video at the link they are right up against the terrace where there is a choir attempting to sing. They are just feet from the woman who is conducting the singers.

What a disgusting bunch.

From the “Twitchy” link:

(Those signs were kindly provided by the Baltimore People’s Power Assembly, dedicated to overthrowing the brutal system maintained by the U.S. imperialist ruling class.)

***
The US imperialist ruling class = Obama and the Uniparty. Who knew these thugs and I could agree on something?
