CLEVELAND, Ohio — Protesters blocking traffic Saturday on Lorain Avenue near West 130th Street clashed with the driver of a van who drove through their protest line.
He blared his horn and slowly drove forward through the crowd. Some of the protesters kicked and punched the van.

Bill DeBlasio owns this.
Someone tried to teach them about the "Protestant work ethic" but all they learned was the part about "Protest".
"RAMMING SPEEEEEEED!"
I’m not on twitter. Hopefully this will be picked up by Drudge if it’s not just rumor. Bad news.
And definitely Al Sharpton!
Violence is going to be unavoidable. They are going to eventually block some person under stress trying to get to a hospital or catch a plane, and things are going to get out of control because people in general don’t do well under that type of situation. Or the person will get frightened and the situation is going to get out of control.
Someone is going run over one of the dumb asses, and they are going to blame it on racism, not the fact that a person had an important airline flight they could not afford to miss, or a spouse or child in the hospital, or whatever is important.
I personally think all of them, every last one of them blocking the road should, if they do not move off when asked, be maced, tazed, cuffed and dragged off, no questions asked.
And when someone runs over a bunch of them because they start beating or jumping on the car or trying to open the doors or stick their hands inside, they are going to sue and call them a murderer.
I want to be on that jury.
He could have driven rapidly but then his van would have been slowed as protesters got stuck in the wheel wells.
Last night on local news they were showing these fools blocking ramps and one in particular going into SE DC (ACROSS the River). The route they were on is an Interstate.
It will be fun when the ‘residents’ of Anacostia have some face to face with these ‘NW and Georgetown/GWU preppies’ and it comes to blocking their cars or businesses...
That little journey was ‘dicey’ about 10 years ago..Somewhat like North Ave in Baltimore...in the middle of the day you feel you could cut the tension with a knife...
Admittedly some of the trepidation may have been because of anticipation of what ‘could’ happen (IT WORKS IN COURT FOR THEM).
I do carry even in DC (seems you CAN’T(well not supposed to) CARRY where it is needed....
Even though a Pistol is no match for a ‘mob’ may still be able to create enough confusion to make a ‘get away’ if threatened.
Whether you are able to ‘get to it’ in time or not, the mental thought that you at least have ‘something’ is far better than saying ‘If you don’t stop I am going to call 911’ Course calling 911 when in the middle of Indian Country sure gets some weird looks and comments with the first thought from Black AND White Officers -WTF you doing THERE?....
Like JJ and AL Dullton point out - ‘THEY’ have a right to be anywhere in the city at any time for any reason.
‘THEY’ tell me I have the same rights but quickly add.
“You sure look like you know better than to be in that neighborhood, so you deserve what you got”.....
Go figure...
All of them in the middle of the road are liars.

BREAKING: 2 NYC Police Officers Shot In Line Of Duty In Brooklyn http://bit.ly/1JAcC7E #tcot
Its no rumor. Other news sites in the area are tweeting it as well.
2 Brooklyn cops critically injured. Both shot in the head at close range while sitting in their cruiser.
I hope someone catches all the looting on video so the 24/7 news cycle can play it over and over and over again.
"THIS is what real liberalism looks like."
This is why I shop online. These people suck they have to ruin things for all.
The revolution is going rather well comrades.
We have a new president of the people, unencumbered by an irritating legislative branch and increasingly supported in the writing of law by a judicial branch.
The comrades are having their way in the streets, anti-revolutionaries are being inconvenieced, and bourgois elections are being neutralized.
Going well indeed, comrades!
Long live the revolution!!!

http://www.writersdigest.com/online-editor/lay-vs-lie
It should be either lay or laid as in the last chart of the link...laid is past tense, as in putting something down there. Or lay as the past tense of a subject who is resting or reclining.
The author is not the subject who is resting or laying down, it’s the protestors... who are putting themselves down as a representation of the death of the subject Michael Brown...
So if I am wrong with ‘laid’, then it is “Some lay in the middle of the road.”
See the link, and let me know how you interpret the lie vs lay chart.
At least they're trashing their own strong holds and leaving the normal people alone. I hope they don't expect the normal Americans to bail them out afterwords. If they trash their own cities, at least the rest of us don't have to live in them.
