"LSD is Groovy. Kill the Pigs!"-Jeffrey McDonald
There is one thing that the fundo-fuckfaced, Bible thumping, neo-night
riders want more than anything else from the American Left, violence.
As the factional separation of our political system becomes more
pronounced, they become increasingly desperate for it. They went to
Washington when Cindy and her Ladies in Pink marched, to try and
provoke a scuffle, no matter how minor. When no incidents occurred,
they claimed to have been spat upon. In truth, many of the poor dears
lisp, especially when excited and if you get too close, you do so at
your own peril. They talk of being menaced by large groups of bikers
on the streets of San Francisco and Minneapolis. It turns out they
weren't the fearsome Vroom-Vroom Harley types but the ones powered by
Campaignolo and Shimano, with their little plastic teardrop helmets
and Lycra tights with padded crotches. It's hard for them to kick ass,
when their feet are bolted to the pedals. Har-Har-Har! They
desperately hope unsavory ruffians will disrupt the Republican
National Convention next summer but so far, no such luck seems to be
in store.
There is little politically motivated violence in this country. The
occasional openly gay college student will get beaten half to death
and then hung up on a barbed wire fence to freeze. The odd Black or
Hispanic or Indian boy will be tied to the back of a pickup truck and
dragged along the two lane blacktop for a few miles. Every once in a
while a Planned Parenthood clinic will be bombed, or one of its
physicians will get their head blown off by a high powered rifle from
a few hundred yards away. These are just isolated incidents though.
They are not sanctioned by any legitimate Right Wing organization.
Really, just ask them. They'll tell you so.
Last year there was a soldier, in uniform, who claimed he was picked
up on a road in rural Washington State, by "hippies" and roughed up. I
looked for some follow up in the local news for several weeks and
never found a single word. I suspect it was a hoax, rapidly hushed up
by the soldier's command.
Last week there was a great story, all over the media. Some little
Princeton boy, who belonged to a chastity society, wrote a story for
the school paper, against the school policy of giving out condoms,
free of charge, to the student body. Hey, I can get behind that. Any
kid who can afford the Ivy League, should be able to buy their own
rubbers. Anyway, after the publication of his story, he claimed to
have gotten death threats. Then, he turned up at the Campus Police,
claiming to have been beaten up by two young men in dark watch caps
and overcoats. Presumably these two young men were fellow students,
who felt threatened that their supply of free condoms would be cut
off. This story was all over Fox News, talk radio and the blogosphere.
I haven't seen Brit Hume so outraged since the title General Betrayus
was coined.
It turned out this was just a sad, lonely boy with sexual, religious
and political identity problems who made the whole thing up. I feel
sorry for this kid. I hope he gets some help and they don't kick him
out of school or worse, throw him in jail. I wonder if the local gun
shops have been given this kid's name and photo. Hmmm.
Don't despair fundo-faggots, there may be some deranged hippies out
there, willing to do some violence on you, yet. Bide your time. Keep
your hopes up.

"fundo-fuckfaced, Bible thumping, neo-night riders"
I don't fit this description, but I very nearly went to the
Gathering of Eagles rally in DC back in September. Finances put
the kibosh on that. I know for sure that my motive was to show
support for General Petraeus.
I know several people who did attend (I mean "know" as in
having met, not just people I read) and I sincerely believe
they were also there to lend support to General Petraeus. I
don't think any of them were hoping to have actual physical
confrontations.
*In truth, many of the poor dears lisp*
Can't picture who you mean here.
I think the actual truth of the matter is that there are
nitwits on both sides of these issues. I think there are people
who needlessly agitate on both sides of most issues.
Posts like this don't move anyone's agenda forward or promote
any serious discussion. But it's your blog and you are entitled
to rant as it amuses you. Have fun.
