National Trend of Threatening Protests Comes to PA

Democrat Protest in Westmoreland County Turns Ugly- Police Respond

Harrisburg – Today, Republican State Committee Chairman Alan Novak demanded his Democrat counterpart, Chairman T.J. Rooney, condemn the threatening protest in Westmoreland County and call upon all Democrat and affiliated campaign groups to stop similar campaign protests that may be planned across Pennsylvania.

“This is an outrage of the highest order. There is no place for violence, threats or disorderly conduct in campaigns," exclaimed Novak. “With similar events happening across the nation, it is clear that some think this kind of action is condoned. I demand that Chairman Rooney call to a halt any and all threatening protests and that he urge affiliated third party groups to do the same."

“Democrat protestors have every right to voice their opinion and be heard. But, when their actions become intimidating, unlawful and even violent, the perpetrators should be arrested and their leaders should be brought to justice. I will take every step possible to ensure that this happens in Pennsylvania to protect the peaceful volunteers that are working on behalf of the Republican Party and our candidates," added Novak.

This morning, a Democrat protest in Greensburg, Westmoreland County, turned threatening and potentially violent when a protestor stormed the Republican Victory Center shouting obscenities and intimidating young female volunteers. Police were called to the scene.

This type of intimidation mirrors the actions of other protests across the nation. Yesterday, an Orlando Bush/Cheney office was ransacked by Democrat protestors. In Tennessee, a Bush/Cheney office was fired upon breaking windows and destroying property.

“This is an embarrassing, ugly and despicable display. It is campaigning at its worst. I trust that Chairman Rooney will deplore these acts as inexcusable and call to a halt any others that may be planned," concluded Novak.

Especially since the connection between the DNC and AFL-CIO in the most violent of these hq attacks is obvious? Write the AG and ask others to..Send a copy of your demand to your Congressman and the local papers..Get cracking cause if the feds aren't out there now, it'll only get worse.

The peaceful, tolerant, all diversity - all the time Democrats? Tell me it isn't so.

So far, they've shot at 2 RNC head courters, fractured a Republican volunteers arm, broke a little girls heart, stole 3 computers from the RNC campaign, destroyed the private property of honest American citizens, and now this.

During the Nazi era, these hate filled people used to be called communist brown shirts.

This is where the blogosphere/Freep can do the job! Encourage all your friends to have a digital camera handy. Pix of Liberal thuggery can be broadcast around the world within 30 minutes of such an event.

These violent people are working for John Kerry. They're actually attacking American citizens to suppress a free election.

This is NOT the type of Administration the freedom loving America people should vote for. This is not Red China!

Heard from folks in music business that Dims will use some leading Rappers to mobilize the Black youth in the week prior to election day to come out and wote for Kerry.

If you think this is far fetched, see what you can buy in stores today:

Your picture is exactly what the Democrat party has become. That picture needs to get around.

Holy crap - I didn't hear about this on the news!

Me and my ten-month-old baby girl were there making phone calls and doing data input last week!

That's really scary. Now I know why, when I called there today, they said they have no more yard signs because they were all stolen!!!

Kinda reminiscant of The stalinists and facistists in the 30's,40's, and 50's in Europe.

If this keeps up from the left and the "Anarchists" (Orlando attackers were identified as AFL-CIO memebers, and the other attacks in Wisconsin are belived to be Union personal also.) It will leave some on the right feeling the have no other recourse then to defend themselves. It could get ugly... real ugly.

Looks like the Democrats are trying to bring Iraqi democracy to America. It had better be a unanimous vote for Kerry, or people are going to die.

What you are describing will occur, it's only a matter of time. The Enemy Within must be purged from this great nation, only then can we win the War on Terror.

I hate the though of ever having to defend myself from my fellow citizens, but I have dealt with some of the far left partisans. They are so sure that their thinking is correct they are unwilling to waiver from it. Even when proven wrong with evidence and fact. The one person that I had the discussion with about Iraq and the elections, when i refuted his comments that Iraq was oil war. He stated that the oil price that we are paying not and the gas prices are all part of a conspiracy to hide the fact that the invasion of Iraq was only for oil. When I stated that that was pretty far fetched and that it would involve the corridination of several different countries and companies cooperating to keep this conspiracy quite, and I did not see that as being likely. He went into a rage stating that I was covering and part of the conspiracy.

It is the kind of uncontained emotional thinking and activity that we are seeing out of a lot of the liberal left. It is their right to the thought, but as soon as the take the actions that they have started to take is bordering on disloyalty to the ideals that this country has been built on, and the democrats need to address this with in their ranks.

Realistically how many Democratic campaign offices have we heard being attacked?

Sadly, I'm not kidding.

Our domestic enemies are NOT going to give up until they win; therefore, the time is rapidly approching where they will have to be dealt with as terrorists: they will have to be jailed or killed.

This course is abhorent to me; but leftist domination is even more abhorent.
