Always nice to have some good news even if it is from a little red dot in a sea of blue.

So this lefty he-man attacks a woman with pepper spray and runs away. So impressed with this lefty display of manhood.

And, in an ironic end to this story:

The crowd chased the masked man, who jumped over a fence and started running along Pacific Coast Highway, where he was detained by California Highway Patrol officers.

Imagine cops showing up and saving the little lefty piss-ant from getting his ass well and fully kicked. Apparently black-hooded lives matter.

Funny that you left that out, Mike.

More news from yesterday at the beach - http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/l...326-story.html

"An OC Weekly reporter and two photographers said Sunday that they were physically assaulted by pro-Trump demonstrators at a Make America Great Again rally in Huntington Beach and are seeking the public’s help in identifying at least one of the people responsible.
Frank Tristan, an intern at the paper, and photographers Julie Leopo and Brian Feinzimer were attacked before one of several counter-demonstrators pepper sprayed an organizer of Saturday’s event. After Jennifer Sterling was pepper-sprayed, several fights broke out.
A video of the confrontation shows Sterling trying to intervene after a Trump supporter pushed and shoved Feinzimer, who was shooting pictures of Leopo being hit with an American flag, then repeatedly punched Tristan. A moment later, Sterling is pepper-sprayed and can be seen staggering around, rubbing her eyes before falling to the ground." LA Times

I don't care.

When people finally pull their heads out of their asses and realize why the workplace is becoming a bigger and bigger pain in the ass every day, your party is going to have more problems than a few idiots at a dumbass Trump circus, Mike.

I thought that day would of happened long ago. Battles must be repeatedly fought over and over it so seems. Lessons once learned are soon forgotten.
The masses are brainwashed into believing someday they will be in high cotton. Have the latest new gadget to play with dulling the mind. Then when the day of reckoning comes will just blame any convenient evil.
The selling unions as the evil enemy or universal health care as a right a retirement when aged public schools. All are put forth by the GOP as the reasons for all our troubles. In reality it just so the taxes can be reduced and a preceded voting block destroyed. The environment the most important issue facing us all is just an after thought it seems today.

Yes someday my ancestors will know I spoke up will yours?

Right, cuz whenever I take a trip to the beach, pepper spray and a taser are the first two items I always pack.

These lefty idiots went to that rally looking to start trouble. They were successful, and they were lucky the cops were there to save their troublemaking asses.

Are you getting talking points saying to stoke anger now, whell? Has a decision been made up at the Bannon level to up the level of street violence?
