Santa Cruz California is a sanctuary city. None of these vandals if they are here in the country illegally can be arrested.

They probably were keeping a close eye on those suspicious TEA partiers

Barry doesn't just have his imported SWAT teams in full riot gear keeping a close eye on elderly grandmas, he has his minions sending nasty-grams to the military to conduct provocative/intimidating military exercises at the time of scheduled TEA party events, while suggesting TEA-party types are alcohol-driven domestic terrorists, prone to extremist violence.

Hopefully the military has schooled themselves on the difference between legal orders and those which aren't.

I believe it was a famous former resident of Santa Cruz that once said, "What Jeffe was saying was (maybe it was Jefferson), Hey! You know, we left this Mexico place (maybe he said England) 'cause it was bogus; so if we don't get some cool rules ourselves - pronto - we'll just be bogus too! Get it? It's US History. I see the globe right there."

you want to explain your post or post a working link?

You do realize that whatever you write goes out on the world wide web and can get picked up - forever -

If you were attempting sarcasm - that should be indicated.

we shouldn't just post anything, willy nilly

YouTube: Santa Cruz whackos at city council

Completely amazing. They're all silly, sure, but a couple of them are plainly psychotic --you will see.

I think the link speaks for itself.

But, for the record, no businesses nor government offices were damaged by any tea party rally this weekend.

Apparently, some were damaged by a different group of “protesters”

I wonder if any of the businesses that were torched were owned by Korean Americans. As I recall during the Rodney King brouhaha the Korean Americans in LA were completely in support of the Second Amendment to the US Constitution. I understand none of their businesses were seriously damaged. Perhaps these business that were damaged can send Linda Ronstadt a bill.

Thank you for calling me on my made up title and post.

My point is, this happens all the time with main stream media.

They report a huge fallacy, and then, retract the page posted.

The headline was out there for a few hours until they realised it was bunk.
So instead of posting a correction. They make the story go away by scrubbing it.

First he has SWAT TEAMS in full combat gear march out to intimidate grammas at a Tea Party demonstration - now he's ordered the military to conduct a full scale ‘exercise’ against them at a scheduled base demonstration! Totally unconstitutional!

Fortunately, if this was a trial balloon to see if he could get the military to turn on Americans, it looks like some cool heads along the line have stuck a pin in it...
