De nada. I was looking for the central thread, and found it right away. Thank you for maintaining the list of Democratic attacks on RNC bases.
Parliamentary row disolves into fistfight
A fistfight broke out between government and opposition MPs during a parliamentary debate in Venezuela.
Rival members traded punches as tempers frayed in a row over a controversial media bill, reports the BBC.
The incident forced a 10-minute suspension of proceedings in the National Assembly.
Venezuelan television showed images of the brawl which began after the bill was slipped into the agenda against the opposition's wishes.
It started when Nicolas Maduro, of President Hugo Chavez's Movement of the Fifth Republic, and Nicolas Sosa, of the opposition Movement for Socialism (MAS), started pushing and shoving each other.
Their colleagues managed to separate them but no sooner had order been restored when another scuffle broke out.
This time Mr Maduro accused another opposition member, Roger Rondon, of hitting him on the head with a folder.
Mr Maduro then ran after Mr Rondon and the two exchanged blows before other opposition members broke up the fight.
The violence erupted over draft legislation which Mr Chavez sees as a way of regulating the country's often stridently anti-government private media.
Opposition parties say it threatens freedom of speech and have nicknamed it the "gag law".
Damnation. I hate to say it, but unless cooler heads prevail, people are next. This needs to be stopped, right now.
This is a very dangerous genie to uncork from its bottle. There may be no turning back at some point.
If they think they can win, they WILL. For the Left it is all about POWER

Sad, and true. But's so's my tagline.
Armed self-defense is legal, and concealed-carry is shall-issue, in all of these states. 'Nuff said.
That is what it is looking like, I've never seen a Presidential election this filled with hate from the RATS! Does it SMACK of desperation????
Follow the money folks....it starts at the global level...then filters down, and all around...
I know the bastards in the MSM won't cover this.........who is?? FNC? Rush??? Who?????? I'm pissed....................
Im getting worried that there will be violent crashings of Republican victory parties on election night. I took the week of the election off just to keep my car away from the more crazy liberal coworkers at my job. Im voting first thing tuesday morning Nov.2nd as soon as the polls open.
Drudge has an article, haven't checked Fox. I keep emailing MSM with every article about violence posted here, flood them with it!
Also, help educate, email these to all in your address book, I am. I search every nite & make on mailing of all the violence & ask people to pass it on.
They've already started. During the Democrat Convention in Boston, dissenters were herded into a "Free Speech Zone" -- a chain link cage surrounded with razor wire.

I wondered how people used to living in a civilized society would ever be pushed to take up arms against their fellow countrymen. I think I now know, this kind of activity could light the fire if the perpetrators of this outrage are not brought to justice.
