This was planned for some time by the SEIU as part of a larger national event, their Showdown on K Street, which was shared with National People’s Action and thousands of other activists from MoveOn.org and other left-wing groups.
Prior to the main event on K Street in Washington DC, SEIU and company made a little pit stop. According to Fortune magazine Washington editor Nina Easton, 14 busloads of riled up protesters unloaded on Baer’s private property and stormed up to his doorstep, while his teenage son was home alone. Easton is a neighbor of Baer’s and had called to check on her neighbor’s son when she heard and saw all the commotion outside. Easton writes,
“Waving signs denouncing bank “greed,” hordes of invaders poured out of 14 school buses, up Baer’s steps, and onto his front porch. As bullhorns rattled with stories of debtor calls and foreclosed homes, Baer’s teenage son Jack — alone in the house — locked himself in the bathroom. “When are they going to leave?” Jack pleaded when I called to check on him.
Baer, on his way home from a Little League game, parked his car around the corner, called the police, and made a quick calculation to leave his younger son behind while he tried to rescue his increasingly distressed teen. He made his way through a din of barked demands and insults from the activists who proudly “outed” him, and slipped through his front door.
“Excuse me,” Baer told his accusers, “I need to get into the house. I have a child who is alone in there and frightened.”
Imagine what you would have done if your child were inside that house and that mob was on your front lawn as you tried to reach him.

Trespassing on private property and threatening others. Good way to get shot.
would it be legal to open your front door, fire off a round from your 12 gauge into the air and then tell the crowd ANY trespasser will be shot ?
wuz a-lookin’ fer the “satire” tag...
Time to train the boy in the use of firearms.
SEIU is a pretty big lobby whole lot of thuggery going on round here methinks.
This is why I have a Pit Bull and a 9mm.
The dog is just for show unfortunately, the most he would do is lick someone to death...
That’s what a double barrel shotgun is for.
mobs and thugs, funded by the people they have now turned on
What on earth was wrong with the police that they wouldn't come and help this man. The officer on duty should be fired.
No, that wouldn’t be legal. Would be legal to shoot anyone who caused you to fear for your life or that of someone else there.
SHOWDOWN ON K STREET!!!!
Whores vs Imbeciles.
Hard to know who to root for in this one, to be frank.
They just can't handle disagreement.
I’d like someone to identify the faces of these terrorists so that the favor may be returned . I guess they’d cry foul if it was a reversed action involving THEIR fmailies.
So what would be on the news today had this been a tea party?
No.
Basically a lynch mob is what this is. But it’s a “good thing” because they’re “fighting” for “democracy” against the “big banks”. /spit
I would call this stunt an act of terrorism. It fits the definition.
It’s all part of a plan.Andy Stein is Obama’s Ernst Rohm.
It’s just a matter of time until someone is killed by these thugs.It would serve them right to be blown away the next time they storm someone’s home.the only legal way is to hold fire until the door is breached and then rock’n roll.
If someone breaks into my home posing a threat i will respond with deadly force.
You cannot shoot people for standing on your lawn.
You CAN deploy bug spray-just getting rid of hornets,etc.
