You know, is it just me or does it seem like a whole lot of people are sick and tired of the Left these days? On the strength of this plucky repulse of the green slime, I say give the Brits their guns back.

I saw the video this morning...it was a beautiful thing. I love that they are completely shocked that anyone would fight them. I know many liberal activist groups here that need a good ass whooping.

I saw a bumper sticker you'd like today:

This is great! Too bad only a few went to the hospital.

We need to start beating the living daylights out of this kind of filth when they interfere with daily life in our own communities. Really punish and hurt them.

There is still a spark of life left in England!

"They were just Cockney barrow boy spivs."

"Pushcart vendors".

They were just Cockney barrow boy spivs.

Looks like the spivs can still give the toffs a bloody good hiding.

To translate this into American terms, imagine a pompous Harvard man fresh out of a Connecticut prep school going down to a construction site in South Boston and trying to shut it down. After his well-deserved ass kicking, imagine him sneering at the "white trash Micks". That's the tone this Greenpeace douche bag is setting.

My dad's people were Cockneys. Rough and tumble East Enders. I am so happy they are still so pugnacious. Like the Scots, they get treated like s**t by the upper classes, and lost far more than their share of men in every war England ever fought.

“We bit off more than we could chew. They were just Cockney barrow boy spivs. Total thugs,” one protester said, rubbing his bruised skull. “I’ve never seen anyone less amenable to listening to our point of view.”


PRICELESS!

There are some news stories that make me not only incredibly glad to be alive, but make me want to go outside and romp happily 'midst the squirrels and field mice playing in my yard.

This story...and the news that Jennie Finch is in this year's SI Swimsuit issue...are just such stories. :o)

In essence, they're calling them "white trash".

Interesting tack for someone on the supposed "sophisticated left".

Ah, so you invade their workspace and refuse to leave, and they defend their livelihood, but they're the thugs. OK buddy, we won't need to do an MRI, no brain=no brain damage.

Does mean what I think it does? Britain was dumb enough to sign that?

No, they were protesting the fact that Britain isn't interested in economic suicide.

One more was tossed in and the rest then meekly got up and walked to the bus.

A friend of a friend is a former Air Force security policeman. He proudly displays in his home a photo of himself arresting one of the Commie nuns who used to try to sneak onto the base and damage equipment. He has her arm bent up behind her back and everything; she sure did resist hard for a pacifist! This particular nun was one of the people sent to prison for beating on a nuclear missile at a silo in Colorado a year or two ago. Some folks never learn.

Just stuff their reply envelopes with heavy trash paper and return them. Let them pick up the tab. For a $5 donation, you get onto enough lists to cost them $100 in postage.

Behind him, on the balcony of the pub opposite the IPE, a bleary-eyed trader, pint in hand, yelled: “Sod off, Swampy.”

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

I just went to the greenpeace.org site, where they have a free faxing service to Tony Blair telling him to sign Kyoto.

I sent a fax that blasted the fascist Greenpeace thugs and asked PM Blair to not sign the accord!

I doubt he'll see it, as I doubt they'll send it, but it was fun nonetheless!

In a legal and planned protest I don't believe that such should have occurred.

However, this was more of a "breaking and entering" scenario. Full Cockney rules apply here. Hope they leave scars.
