Occupy DC protesters violently injured peaceful Tea Party go-ers (some elderly) and attemped to force entry into the Washington Convention Center on Friday (Nov 4, 2011), where Americans for Prosperity is hosting their "Defending the American Dream Summit." The protesters also formed roadblocks, surrounding the convention center and only allowing non-luxury cars to pass. Parents with their children were caught in the violence. Some injured... Auto/pedestrian accidents occured as Occupy protestors rushed into the streets hurling profanities at drivers and attempting to block drivers' paths. This has to stop...
DITTO!!!!
I have a possible compromise for those that object to your big post: Either blockquote it twice (because it is true that it is somewhat hard to tell where your post ends and the thread begins again) or offer the items piecemeal (a few at a time).
Yeah, me too. I’ve lived here >30 years.
North Carolina is hurting just like everybody else. As you know. The money is actually leaving America.
Maybe the TEA party ought to start holding their big events in right-to-carry states. The George Mason Patriot Center wasn’t available?
Cheers!
I came to that great valley in 1985 and it was quite a hoot for this TN Airman. Sheriff Joe is solely responsible for keeping the peace there. God Speed
“...Get ready folks. They will be blocking your polling place in November, 2012....”
Maybe so in some places, but I can uniquivocally, without a doubt and with positive assurance, gaurantee you they won’t be blocking me from getting to mine...at least not for long.

LOL! I can say the same thing, they won’t do that where I live and our leo’s are not like the yankee leo’s. They don’t like that pos in the WH, and they sure won’t let them do anything at the polls. We don’t have those kind of people down here anyway. So luckily I don’t have to worry about it. IF a small group tried it they would be arrested within 5 minutes. That.... is a fact. This isn’t libland.
How about making it a seperate thread, adn then providing a link to it?
Occupying other threads like ETL has done is obnoxious.
Yeah, in the summer of race riots, all was quiet in Philly.
The first duty of government is to protect life. A close second is property. RIP Frank Rizzo.
>> I hate that copy and paste obsession people get.
Idiotic characterization of ETL’s efforts to provide context and knowledge.
Ignore hell! The media encourages this stuff. They aid and abet the Communists that are doing this in every way humanly possible.
Of course this was in DC. Or NY. Or anyplace where the peasants aren’t allowed to carry handguns.
If we are not standing idly by now, what are we doing.

I haven’t watched it yet. Anarchy.
Look for this to ALL backfire in their (Occupy Wall Street movement) come next November, when the REAL “silent majority” will say “enough is enough” and VOTE OUT those who “enable” these radicals.
Just some good parts
Oh I agree. If your car is surrounded no one could blame you for running over as many as needed. They could have you out of that car in seconds. If your or your family’s life is truly in danger you have the moral right.
But on the video I saw they weren’t violent or surrounding the car, just blocking the intersection. If the Lexus driver had plowed into the crowd and killed 5 or 6 people he would have been in the wrong and given those protesters what they wanted. If they had surrounded the car that would be a different story.
