MUST WATCH VIDEO!!!

Can't get the link to work. That's probably just as well - It would only serve to anger me. When the heck is somebody going to take out a few of these punks? This herd does need serious culling.

U.S. citizens have become a nation of sheep. I don’t live in the U.S. so blame it on yourselves.

Seeing how you've abandoned your home country, you have forfeited your right to condemn we Americans who are still standing our ground in AMERICA.

Your opinion on these matters carries no more weight than any other foreigner.

Let’s play ‘Identify the Source’:

“They Bring a Knife…We Bring a Gun”

“Get in Their Faces!”

“I don’t want to quell anger. I think people are right to be angry! I’m angry!”

“Hit Back Twice As Hard”

“A Republican victory would mean hand-to-hand combat”

“It’s time to fight for it.”

“Punish your enemies.”

“I’m itching for a fight.”

“Put on your marching shoes!”

One should stay in a target-rich area, eh?

Thanks for posting. This pisses me off to no end. This will not end well at all. They are itching for a fight and it is going to happen and I imagine soon. That poor lady knocked to the ground. Why in the world did the cops not call in the ubiquitous SWAT teams to clear that crap?

Thank you, reform.

Among other things of which you have advantage over others, is you travel to other countries. Again, I read here on FR only 10% of U.S. citizens have U.S. passports. No one travels. Traveling is an education no one learns by staying home.

By the way, if you ever feel the need to leave the U.S., Panama is the perfect paradise.

1. The expansion of the canal is on schedule.

2. Petrol is seeping out of the ground near the Colombian boarder.

3. There is a copper mine over in the western part of Panama.

If you are near retirement age or are retired, Panama makes it very easy for you to move here.

I already said that if I found myself in my car surrounded and afraid of the mob they can count on anyone in front of my car being flat out on the pavement.I don’t care they can arrest me but I was in fear for my life....

When they are "opposed" enough that they start killing people, burning businesses and cars a la youts in France.

We're not going to fire the first shot. They will.

I think you iterpreted it wrong. My take is that thewoman was going off on OWS assholes who got too close to her kids and her husband pulled her away before it got worse.

the local cops should be charged with Dereliction of Duty and Selective Enforcement of the Law for allowing this to happen...

I prefer a non-target rich environment, but then I’m rotten with fire arms. I really need to practice.

The LEO's are being told to stand down. Oakland events are the clearest picture of that.

As to; "Why in the world did the cops not call in the ubiquitous SWAT teams to clear that crap?" I think these specialists increasingly exist for "Homeland security threats", that's you and I.
