Chaos in Calais as Anarchists and Migrants Storm Ferry ‘Spirit of Britain’
Breitbart ^

Posted on 01/24/2016 7:42:12 AM PST by detective

Numerous calls have been made for the French to deploy their army in Calais after 50 migrants stormed a ferry last night, causing chaos and bringing the port to a standstill. Anarchist groups aiding the migrants co-ordinated the attack and a demonstration preceding it that saw statues and shops in the town centre daubed in graffiti.

Ferry workers turned fire hoses on the migrants as they stormed the ship, ironically called the Spirit of Britain, in a desperate bid to keep them at bay. Although around 50 made it aboard the ferry itself - and then milled around seemingly at a loss to know what to do next - only 35 arrests were made.

This is what the Obama administration and the elites want for America.

Unless something is done this will be America in a few years.

“Community organizer” = anarchist.

What do anarchists do when they aren't trying to destroy something?

Aren't most just bored little rich kids?

Anarchism is a fairly old political philosophy. Of course, one may scoff at it and criticize it — but it’s a real thing. There is a notion that humans can build a society without a governing authority, without coercion, and with an emphasis on cooperation and community spirit.

It might be ludicrous, but that’s the idea of Anarchy as a political philosophy.

But the people today who call themselves “anarchists” do not know anything about that philosophy. Those goals are not their goals.

The people today who call themselves “Anarchists” are Marxists who seek a powerful one world government that will force people to share goods, and which will crush all political opposition.

Beware of “anarchists” — they seek a totalitarian state. Because words no longer mean anything.

“Aren’t most just bored little rich kids? “

Antifa, supported by Soros, with the intention of bringing down Western civilization so it can be remade.

I thought the May Day parades with Mexican flags from years past indicated it was here already. I guess their PR people told them the Mexican flags weren’t helping their cause; haven’t seen them for a while (they’ve been replaced with SIEU banners, I guess).

Time to set up a dummy ferry (with junked cars) that they can hijack; then tow it back to Africa.

We need a Trump to bring a sledgehammer to the ideas of uncontrolled immigration, political control of climate and modern socialism.

Surely that ferry's not the only boat in Calais capable of crossing the channel.

Can the French police watch every boat in every port, checking for human smugglers?

Can British police guard their entire coast, looking for boats the French police missed?

Soon Europe will enjoy the peace and tolerance for which the Middle East is famous. Soon Europe will experience the economic prosperity that is rampant in Africa.

Western civilization is now one for the history books.

Most European leaders need to resign over letting hordes of savages infest their once-great countries.

Anarchists and Migrants Storm (the) 'Spirit of Britain'

Like the man says, "Here's your sign."

What's really weird is that I'm hearing Rod Serling's voice in my head saying it instead of Bill Engvall's.

Is that because we, in western civilization, have entered that Twilight Zone just before a major event/correction or some prophecy is fulfilled, sorta like that magic hour, twilight space in between daylight and darkness?

Maybe so, because the next thing playing in my head is Curtis saying to Elwood and Jake Blues, "You boys could use a little churching up."

Then, in my head he looks right at Western Civilization 2016 and says, "Jake, you get wise. You get to church."

Whoa, that was different...and I think I'll go get some more coffee...a LOT more coffee.

Yes, they're the offspring of successful fathers who didn't teach them good values - and who they can't match in success. Same types that took down the World Trade Centers... and brought about the Russian revolution and sit in Washington DC and 'forgive' Hillary and her rapist husband for being monsters.

We need a new “Maginot Line” near the French coast.

The difference is not 'type' it's degree...
