The Real ‘Mob’ Are The G20 Protesters
Over the past month and a half or so, tea party protesters and people who went to town hall meetings have been derided and ridiculed. The DNC ran an ad calling dissenting Americans a ‘mob.’ Harry Reid basically called right-wing protesters evil. Lamestream media types have wrung their hands as well and fretted about potential violence. Likewise, Nancy Pelosi actually took to the podium the other day and, mustering up her best Meryl Streep, acted like she thought the ‘rhetoric’ of the tea party protesters would lead to violence. Meanwhile, the tea party protests in DC – and the dissenting voices at town hall meetings - couldn’t have been more peaceful. The only violence associated with them that I heard about were of union thugs laying fists on people like health care opponents like Kenneth Gladney.
Conversely, there is a protest movement that is most definitely out of control. A protest movement that is most definitely unruly, unlawful and violent. And these protesters emanate from the radical left-wing. They are the G20 protesters. Year in and year out, this crowd descends on the G20 Summit and willfully clash with police and vandalize surrounding neighborhoods. This year in Pittsburgh the storyline is no different. A number of businesses in Oakland, a borough of Pittsburgh that includes my alma mater, the University of Pittsburgh, had windows smashed. According to the latest reports, about 70 people have been arrested, with more protests expected today.
Here is just a sampling of some of the ‘mob’ activity of the G20 protesters in Pittsburgh.
One wonders, now, if the lamestream media will cover this with the same *concern* as they did the tea party movement. Will they likewise fret that Obama himself, who is at the Summit, could have his life threatened by one of these radicals? I know – don’t hold my breath.
There’s nothing as violent as a violent looney leftwing liberal.
I wonder if Duh One will say those police “acted stupidly?”
