Police: Air Force pilot beaten by masked ‘anarchists’ after displaying Confederate flags
Washington Post ^ | 9/9/15 | Dan Lamothe

An Air Force pilot was assaulted with a bat in Washington state Saturday by masked “anarchists” after they noticed he was displaying two Confederate flags on his motorcycle, police said.

The incident occurred in Olympia, Wash., a few miles west of where the man is stationed at Joint Base Lewis-McChord. The pilot was stopped because protesters were marching in the street. Then they surrounded him as they attempted to knock his motorcycle over, according to a police report.

“They sprayed the victim in the face with mace, and struck him in the back with a baseball bat and a glass bottle filled with red paint,” the report said. “The victim suffered severe eye irritation and a bruised shoulder and back. One of the witnesses attempting to assist the victim was also sprayed in the face with mace.”

H/T to our ever-vigilant FRiend Kartographer for the post, and to Sport for the heads-up.

I am self-censoring my response to this one - but rest assured, it would be fury...

Calling the Southern Poverty Law Center. Black Bloc anarchists recognized by local police as a “hate group”.

How about you?

When you are flying the Confederate flag you need to be carrying an equalizer. :-)

Sorry, that wasn’t clear. Too sleepy. I meant if he needs to drive into a base, he’s not allowed past the front gate if he’s carrying.

I suppose the Air Force will come after him now.

If they kick him out he can always join the Confederate Air Force.

Oh, you meant "pack heat," but I meant pack as in, a bunch of guys sticking together, watching each other's backs. Is that not allowed?

Oh, now I get what you’re saying. Hopefully none of the guys packing together aren’t 0-type “packers.”

He has the capability to turn a city into a sheet of radioactive glass, but he cannot be trusted with a handgun. I don’t get it either!!!
