Would love to see a follow up on this one.
I bet it was a group of neo-nazi skinheads attacking jihadis huh?
zer0’s/holder’s peeps
nothing to see here...move along
No mention of race - that’s a hint.
The attackers flipped over tables, broke many dishes and left several diners needing to get stitches. According to the Chicago Sun-Times, 10 were hurt in the incident, three of whom were hospitalized.
A long-time waitress at the restaurant described the scene to the Tribune as "the scariest … day of my life. They took out the whole restaurant. It was absolutely horrible."
Five of the attackers are now in police custody, though no charges have been filed as of early Sunday.
Police say the attackers knew who their targets...
White - knew the victims...
That sentence merits a summary execution.
” . . . gathered for a wedding with bats . . . “
Well there’s the problem, right there.
Something needs to be done and done soon. These teapartiers are getting bolder and more violent by the day.
Must be a slow Chicago weekend...
From a comment in the Sun Times non-article, FWIW:
“On Saturday, May 19th a group of 30 anti-fascists descended upon Ashford House restaurant in the Chicago suburb of Tinley Park where the 5th annual White Nationalist Economic Summit and Illinois White Nationalist Meet-and-Greet was taking place. The White Nationalists were targeted inside the restaurant and physically attacked, causing several injuries and completely shutting down their meeting. The anti-fascist group was privy to anonymous inside information. This fascist event had been in secret planning for six months. The attendees have attempted to cover up the true intent of the event with mainstream media reports initially reporting the white nationalist conference as a wedding party and then as an Irish heritage meeting. The event was advertised on www.stormfront.org, an established white nationalist fascist internet forum.”

What this story tells one is that he/she should carry a large calibre weapon with at least 15 magazine, preferably with a backup magazine. Also, practice, practice, practice.
Zombies are getting bad out there.
Chanting political slogans? Wearing hoodies? Most likely anarchists. Fun times in Chicago. In Reno. Guns would have been out. Shots fired. Thugs dying.
Yet another reason why Illinois needs stronger laws regarding metal batons and hammers. Perhaps they should institute a five day waiting period before you can buy a hammer.
Oh, and claw hammers should be banned completely.
...after they allegedly entered a restaurant and began beating patrons gathered for a wedding with bats in southwest suburban Tinley Park....
Allegedly? there was VIDEO TAPE of the attack and that was turned over to police...
It is time to put our foot down and say NO MORE!!...

Axelrod has sent out the word: get violent, Panthers, train your shock troops for the fall chaos; don’t let the flashmob community organizers get ahead of you in training, you’re the backup cavalry.
Sounds like some of Obama’s Occupy thugs attacked a group of white supremacists, sort, a birds of a feather fighting together sort of thing. Next thing you know they will be attacking black racists and Mexican racists./s Punks will be punks.
Wow...talk about a weird turn of events
Anti racists attacking a meet and greet for white Nationalist....
This sort of thing wouldn’t likely happen in Colorado and other states. The reason? Just about everyone I know has a concealed carry permit and uses it.
It is actually humorous to contemplate an OWS group walking into our local pub with mischief on their minds. Their hammers and batons wouldn’t work very well.
