The Santa Barbara News-Press’s front entrance was sprayed with the message “The border is illegal, not the people who cross it” in red paint, sometime either Wednesday night or early Thursday, according to the newspaper’s director of operations, Donald Katich. The attack came amid wider objections to a News-Press headline that used the word “illegals” alongside a story on California granting driver’s licenses to people in the country illegally. […]

In addition to the writing on the building, graffiti espousing a no-borders mentality was scribbled on the walkway through Storke Placita and the sidewalk near Santa Barbara City Hall. Police were braced for a protest in front of the paper later this week. Jan said hundreds could show up, and the Police Department is aware of the call for a protest. …

Never in recorded history has “diversity” been anything but a problem, and often to the point of total destruction.

When they say, "diversity is our strength," they mean theirs, not for the whole people. It's one of those classic "laughing up my sleeve" Marxist lies, similar to "right wing fascist." To them, fascists are "right wing."

Etc.

Two words: “Surveillance cameras”

Two more words: “Armed guards”

If necessary, i.e. an arsonist -

Two more words: “Shoot, Kill”

Two more words: “Clean up”

Last two words: “Report story”

One final word “Smile”

Could this be the beginning of an “illegals/Hispanics” jihad against the America media (and a possible “Charlie Hebdo” scenario in the future)?

Calling this just UCSB libs venting shows how California got to this point.

Its not just some undergrads acting out and it is a big deal when illegals attempt to intimidate Americans out of their Constitutional rights.

If it was the Klan demonstrating in front of a Black newspaper, would that be trivial?

These people are foreigners in the country illegally using brazen violent tactics to defeat the citizens and forcibly make a claim to occupying the land.

Thats Invasion and takeover, and they are claiming a right to it.
