Did you hear about this? I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary on my way home yesterday. Dang, and here I am carrying around my ASP. ;)

A rally, then violence in Olympia

Dang...no, didn’t hear about it!

And I was just thinkin’ if I checked my mail tonight and I had the gubmint check, I should go to that bank to deposit since it’s the closest branch. Maybe not...

We have such sweet and gentle little hippie protesters, don’t we?

No - I hadn’t heard about it. Olympia City council seems to be still filling it’s time in useful endeavors. ~rolls eyes~

The anarchist types and the hippy types are an interesting dynamic when they all get in one place. I’m not sure I get it.

"Witness Tom Beehrle of Olympia said one of the protesters spit and kicked at his Corvette, calling it “a big gas guzzler.”

“I would have done something, but he had a couple hundred little buddies of his with him,” Beehrle said."

From the other article on the subject. Cute when they're young, aren't they?

That article in the Olympian reads like it was written by one of the protesters, with only a tiny bit of editing by some supervising adult.

The editor probably had to tell them “No, you should just say it was a ‘bank’ and not a ‘oppressor of the proletariat’, and here at this paper we do still refer to them as the Olympia Police and not ‘fascist pigs’.”

These little nitwits wouldn’t know fascism if it came up and smacked ‘em in the jackboots while they’re kickin’ in some shopkeeper’s windows.

When do regular people get to fight back? Huh?
