Funny how they don't mention this until Tuesday, 4 days after it happened. Also, it is funny that they don't have any pictures of the rioters since the newspaper office is only a few block away from the civic center. For those outside of Virginia, Roanoke is a large urban center in the southwest side of the state.

Are Obama’s sons at it again?

[BenLurkin]

Morlocks?

[RoosterRedux]

Those radical Quakers are at it again!

And no reader comments section, LOL.

Since the story (at least the excerpt) makes no mention, I must assume this is another Amish uprising?

[Timber Rattler]

Amish rioters, obviously.

“I think four or five years ago there was an incident here after the gates closed, outside the facility,” he said. “When you have 300,000 people together, you unfortunately have people who just don’t want to play nice.”

This is a code word, I’ve seen other stories in which they attribute riots and fighting to “overcrowding”.

This is the America we are getting. A disgrace. And it’s not really racial, without the left the people involved in these fights could have been productive members of society.

Mummers, definitely the Mummers. Were they wearing funny hats?

So what components of the on-going race war were opposing each other in this incident?

I live his claim of letting “a few bad apples” spoil the fair. 400-500 people fighting is not a “few”.

Somehow, this sounds more like a NoVa thing than Roanoke. I had no clue Roanoke had a contingent of thugs readily available, but then I’m not too familiar with it. Roanoke is not a small town so I guess they have their ghetto and barrio to supply the gladiatorial combat.

Yo check it out...sounds like the “Get Rich or Die Trying” crowd making Barry Hussein proud.
