Shattuck: Radical left resorts to intimidation
The Boston Herald ^ | 02-12-17 | Tom Shattuck

Posted on 02/12/2017 7:14:28 AM PST by calvincaspian

The weekend began with another big win in the minds of progressives, Democrats, and various other affiliates of the Alt-left, pouncing on Betsy DeVos, the new secretary of education, as she attempted to pay a visit to a public school in Washington.

A clearly shaken DeVos endured shouts and taunts while being blocked from the entrance. That today’s Democrats don’t see the irony of standing in school doorways and preventing the lawful entry of others, says a lot.

They are morally lost. They’ve become the physical incarnation of the thugs and bogeymen they purport lie within the souls of conservatives.

Getting to is behind all this organized vitriol is imperative as it comes with Obama's blessing and all the other Marxist/Socialists who are tearing this nation apart - the liberals I know are unrelenting, rude, threatening and adamant America will become a Socialist nation. Not one with a Constitution or Law and Order.

The Obama Legacy, Cummunism:

“Democrats stood on the steps of schools to keep the Black students out. Now they stand on them to keep the Black students from escaping.”

And that is post of the week.

From further down in the article in regards to the UC Berkeley debacle, ““protesters” who also managed to spray paint the words “Kill Trump” on a building, throw fireworks, smash windows, and set a few fires.”

This article is a step in the right direction, but the author is still minimizing some of the actions of his liberal buddies. They were doing a little spray painting, throwing fireworks, and setting a little fire here and there. But you know 30 and 40 year old Soros funded boys will be boys! It should also have been mentioned that over $100,000 of damage was done to the school and that some of the primary perpetrators were later identified as school employees who have yet to be fired.

Democrats, and various other affiliates of the Alt-left

There is no "Alt-Left," and there never has been.

There is only ONE "left," and the members emeritus club includes Lenin, Mao, Pol Pott, Stalin, Castro and his good friend Che (at least until he became an embarrassment and proved uncontrollable, at which time Catro had him murdered) and yes, even Hitler. The one thing that this "club" had in common is that they used the power of the state for mass murder and genocide. I'll be happy to admit that the vast majority of the left don't fall into this catagory, but instead are the "useful idiots."

Get one of those little bars of hotel soap, wrap it up all pretty as a present, have in your coat pocket. Then, after having to listen to their dirty talk, give the “present” to the DIRTY MOUTH.

Tell them their Mother asked you to give them that, to help clean their DIRTY TALKING.

Be sure to duck after doing that, because you're gonna get punched!

What a funny tale, that will make, at the Police Station, for the local paper, and for the Judge in Court.

The opposition will continue to grow more bold as we stand by and do nothing. This same attitude by republicans allowed a Muslim Marxist to poison our country, our freedom, and our citizens for 8 long years while he looted our treasury to fund it.

I wish her body guards would have let her walk through those protestors and in through front door, with a camera recording her every move. Would they get physical with her, would they spit on her, like they accused the teaparty when the D's walked through the crowd of protestors to vote yes on the ACA?

Would the press care if they beat her to the ground and she was lying there bleeding? Would the left cheer instead of recoil?

THE 2016 DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM

Guaranteeing Civil Rights

Democrats will always fight to end discrimination on the basis of race, ethnicity, national origin, language, religion, gender, age, sexual orientation, gender identity, or disability.
We need to promote civility and speak out against bigotry and other forms of intolerance that have entered our political discourse.
It is unacceptable to target, defame, or exclude anyone because of their race, ethnicity, national origin, language, religion, gender, age, sexual orientation, gender identity, or disability.
While freedom of expression is a fundamental constitutional principle, we must condemn hate speech that creates a fertile climate for violence.
We condemn Donald Trump’s demonization of prisoners of war, women, Muslims, Mexicans, and people with disabilities;
his playing coy with white supremacists; and the climate of bigotry he is creating.
We also condemn the recent uptick in other forms of hate speech, like anti-Semitism and Islamophobia.

Or just put a large bar of Lava® soap in a sock and use it to beat the snot out of the first Libtard who touches you.

I finally saw video of the confrontation, and was surprised that there appeared to be a dozen or so morons harassing her. The reports had me expecting to see hundreds!

Be sure to duck after doing that, because you're gonna get punched!

Practice the block and counterstrike for self-defense. A punch can hurt your knuckles; use the heel of your hand from shoulder high to the bridge of the nose, but strike as though the target was the back of the head.

I’m so content with my little Kel-tec .380 in my pocket.

Made in FL, guaranteed for life and Mec-gar mags.

Don’t even know it’s in your pocket.

The author’s statement is true and accurate . The Left is morally lost. They are lost with no morals or integrity. His statement says the same thing you said

You ‘ve got to admit, that my way will embaras the heck out of his creds.

What fun, the local tv news and perhaps National News will have retelling the story.

It’s not what children do. It’s what well organized fascists do. They want to talk Hitler. Hitler lost all his elections and then his brownshirts rampaged in the streets til he got put in charge. Then there were no more elections. The left thought they were done having to be nice, and fake what they really believe. They thought, after Obama it was over, and between their dumbed down electorate and their imported socialists and their controlled fake media, they would never lose control of the federal government again. When they did, they said we won’t accept it.
