IBT ^ | Staff photos

Posted on 08/08/2011 6:12:59 AM PDT by Recovering_Democrat

London witnessed a weekend of rioting after the shooting of Mark Duggen by police on August 4. A peaceful protest on Saturday turned violent by Sunday.

London braced on Sunday for more violence after some of the worst riots seen in the British capital for years which politicians and police blamed on criminal thugs but residents attributed to local tensions and anger over hardship.

The guy with the funny hat looks like he is acting out a scene from Blazing Saddles.

Yes. And amen. We are on the brink of something I am afraid most Americans have been too beaten down to be aware of. Top down, bottom up Cloward/Pivens. Nobody listened.

Couldn’t happen here.

This was a race riot. The violence was done by black people because a cop shot a black criminal who shot at him first.

OK, a different story here. However, many race-related riots are instigated by communist agitators. The 1992 Rodney King riots in LA were sparked by members of the Revolutionary Communist Party. Workers World Party also are usually there to agitate when so-called racial incidences occur. They try to make everything out to be racial in nature in order to cause friction between blacks and whites or Hispanics and whites..

From David Horowitz's FrontpageMag.com /DiscoverTheNetworks.org:

"Throughout its history, one of RCP's [Revolutionary Communist Party] principal objectives has been to foment civil unrest in the United States. The most notable example of such efforts occurred on April 29, 1992, when RCP members looted and trashed the downtown and government districts of Los Angeles, triggering the infamous Rodney King riots. During the days immediately preceding the violence, RCP -- which maintained close ties to the L.A. gangs known as the Crips and the Bloods -- had circulated throughout South Central Los Angeles a leaflet featuring a statement by RCP National Spokesman Carl Dix, titled 'It's Right To Rebel' -- a quote popularized by Mao Zedong.

Encouraged by Dix, RCP activists helped lead the riots that would leave 58 people dead, more than 2,300 people injured, some 5,300 buildings burned, and $1 billion in property damaged or destroyed. On the ten-year anniversary of the rioting, RCP member Joseph Veale fondly recalled the violence as 'the most beautiful, the most heroic civil action in the history of the United States.'"

VAN JONES (Obama's former 'Green Jobs Czar'):

Here's the original source for the Van Jones quote about the time he spent in jail following the Rodney King/LA riots (Jones was arrested in "peaceful" protests in San Fran). It was in a 2005 interview he did with East Bay Express. They of course (what else?) claim he "renounced his rowdy Black Nationalist ways" since then (yet he's calling for "complete revolution" in Aug 2009! ...see above):

But in jail, he said, "I met all these young radical people of color -- I mean really radical, communists and anarchists. And it was, like, 'This is what I need to be a part of.'" Although he already had a plane ticket, he decided to stay in San Francisco. "I spent the next ten years of my life working with a lot of those people I met in jail, trying to be a revolutionary." In the months that followed, he let go of any lingering thoughts that he might fit in with the status quo. "I was a rowdy nationalist on April 28th, and then the verdicts came down on April 29th," he said. "By August, I was a communist."

The RCP calls for the armed overthrow of the U.S. government...

From the website of the Revolutionary Communist Party (revcom.us or rwor.org) :

"Create Public Opinion, Seize Power: We are preparing minds and organizing forces for the time when there is a major crack in the system, whenever it comes and wherever it comes from: an opening that makes it possible to bring the future Revolutionary Army of the Proletariat (R.A.P.) into the field and wage a revolutionary armed struggle that actually has a chance of winning.

And we have said that building our party itself is the most important part of organizing forces for revolution. This is true now, and it is true looking forward to the creation of that future R.A.P. and the waging of that armed struggle.":

It’s ON us, ETL. With everything else that is going on, NORMAL Americans have failed to see it, and where they see it, they don’t understand it. Look what happened in Wisconsin over the weekend. Those people were in shock. They didn’t know what hit them.
Most people are not racist. They have no idea what they could have possibly done to provoke such hatred. Some even think it is their fault, somehow.
THEY DO NOT UNDERSTAND THAT THIS HAS BEEN PLANNED AND IS NOW BEING EXECUTED.

It doesn’t help matters when “experts” like Hannity, O’Reilly and Limbaugh have such a weak understanding of the communist movement. I shouldn’t even include O’Reilly here. He’s a COMPLETE friggin idiot.

Top down, bottom up, inside out, is right. Our feral inner-city populations are just getting warmed up. We ain’t seen nothing yet. The whole thing is very disturbing.

Our inner-cities have become a bastion of welfare dependent, uneducated, indoctrinated liberal psychophants. They are incapable of independent thought, critical thinking skills, or any semblence of self-sufficiency. They would all starve without “us” paying the taxes that support them and their children. They remind me of Hugo Chavez’ civilian thugs.

You know, I really wouldn’t be suprised if Obama tried to unionize them and then send them out to the suburbs en masse to loot the homes, businesses and communities of those evil TEA Party “terrorists”.

Now, I don’t believe that will ever happen, but then I didn’t believed we would ever elect a Marxist POS like Obama either. Hence, I keep a healthy supply of ammo available.

Hope and pray for the best. Prepare for the worst.

It looks like there’s not a lot of interest in the Day of Rage.

Too many. I was astounded to see some of the comments from VICTIMS of the Wisconsin beat down...clueless white people who absolutely just did NOT understand what had just happened to them.

Double-take time...

Compare the “common Anarcho-Syndicalist” flag colors and design to the colors and design of Michelle Obama’s dress.

There it is: Michelle Obama attired in an “Anarcho-Syndicalist” flag-themed dress, with her commie fist raised in victory - her and hubby’s celebration of clinching the Dem nomination in 2008.

I KNEW there had to be an explanation for her/his selection of that god-awful, totally unflattering, ugly-as-sin dress that makes her look like a black widow spider. Well, she is one - and is doing her part to administer the death-bite to our country.

I read some comments on a London paper yesterday; amazing how leftists continue to blame oppressive government, government neglect and victimization of poor black people. These fools are in for a rude awakening, in the UK, here and anywhere else the fuse is lit.

I did read on another forum a comment from someone who works around leftists in academia. He said lately even the liberals around him are buying guns and afraid for the future. So some may be awakening a little. Once the violence gets bloody, the divide will get very clear.

Thanks for clarifying. I hope you weren't the only one who made the connections. Bill Ayers, btw, now describes himself as an "anarchist". He probably means Anarcho-Syndicalist.

the violence from the groups you mentioned is being organized on facebook as we speak. They are planning to hit all over the country. They are calling it a Day of Rage. Now where have we heard that before?

Thanks. I didn't catch this part of your comment the first time around. I was too busy trying to fix what I thought was an error. Turns out it really wasn't. Thanks again.

Days of Rage riots
The Days of Rage riots in Chicago took place over a 4-day period beginning October 8, 1969, after members of the Weathermen, a militant offshoot of the Students for a Democratic Society, converged on the city to confront police in the streets in response to the trial of the group of anti-Vietnam War activists known as the "Chicago Eight".

Obama studied communist "Black Liberation" theology under reverend Wright for 20+ years. Bill Ayers' Weather Underground also advocated (revolutionary communist) "Black Liberation".
