Default Anarchists Rage At F**K The Fourth March

Edited for language by me...

July 6, 2012

Anarchists in Oakland, Calif., celebrated America’s independence with a “**** the Fourth” march that included flag burning, chants of “f**k the police” and vandalizing public and private property.

Political Fail Blog, a group of “writers and truth seekers” who think “that we are meant to help one another and make each other’s lives a little bit easier,” has uploaded photos and a video of the march.

Photos of a burning flag and vandalized police cars and buildings with the anarchist logo and messages such as “KILL COPS” scribbled on them were shared via Facebook.

In an accompanying video posted on YouTube, marchers scream “f**k the police” and “f**k the president” while waving a burning flag.

Later police are shown arresting a man who identified himself as Brian Glass and said he was being charged with obstruction.

Sgt. Roland Holmgren told the Oakland Tribune the protesters slashed a tire and broke a window of a police car and vandalized City Hall, the police Internal Affairs Division, a clothing store, a hotel and a bank.

Holmgren said assigning officers to deal with the protesters took officers away from priority calls.

I thank you for wanting us all to know what some small, fringe group is doing in the land of fringe groups. But, realistically, it can get out of control and overwhelm a site. Just something to think about.

What? My posts need more content that appeals to a wider audience, is that what you're implying? You concerned my post may cause a riot, or something?

Get out of control and overwhelm a site? What are you rambling about?

If it doesn't haven't any content that appeals to your particular tastes, why post at all?
Once you see it's above your perceived station in life, go to some other thread.

Time and energy wasted.

occupy started something , some people think it is the way forward

forward to what?

oh just FORWARD

watch for lots more of this , especially the illegals who'll want to be so equal that everyone must bow to them or else , the latino chats on social media are all full of such talk .. leaders are forming up as we speak

and not only them , the gays are getting rather violent in their chats too and looking to take it to the streets .. against mainstream churches who dont bow to their demands

Solidarity a socialist group here and the US are announcing training days for "civil disorganization" including how to deal with tear gas , riot shields ( grabbing them at the bottom ) and small tools that can shatter huge glass windows with ease

more fun to come from the scum

I generally don't ramble. And I agree with most of your posts. I'm just thinking you may overload and lose readers. I think your opinions are important and don't want them to be overlooked. No offense meant.

Lose readers? Things may have changed since I had my Forums, but I don't think I can agree. Members at a forum need content. They tend to feed on it. That's why they're here in the first place, if they're reading the Fire For Effect threads. Having new topics that appeal, is what keeps folks coming back. If I, we, returned to the site and found there was nothing 'new' to learn/absorb/reply to/pass on, what would be the point of continuing here?

I spend as many hours as possible absorbing topics that interest me, and if I can contribute to them, I do. I search five different sites, regularly, looking for topics that, IMO, will appeal to those who also spend a lot of time here, and there are many.

I feed on information, all information. I read posts that initially, from the Topic, don't necessarily draw me in. But, after reading what the OP has to say, in one way or the other, I left the thread knowing more than I did before I went in. The OP gets more page Hits, and I've read something I may have not known.

I am not about high post counts, or posting as many new posts as I can. I am about contributing as much to this site, as this site has contributed to me.

I will not change that because someone feels they are being overloaded with too much information. I really don't understand the mindset.

Maybe it's just me.

Carry onward. I have always liked your posts. It was just something to think about since all readers are not as rabid as I am.

Not possible to shake hands over a cold beer, and that's unfortunate.

Stopped for a late meal...tough to keep hitting 'reload' to keep posts in place.

I'll give that invitation some thought. The lil lady started working a part-time job the last week of April. I don't have an answer right now, but I will consider it. Thanks for the invite.

Thank you. I know folks who say ' I'll have to ask the wife ' to get out of doing whatever they didn't want to do in the first place. Not here.

I will keep it in mind. Orlando is roughly 4 1/2 hours from here. Not a big deal.
Getting away for a day would be a hoot, for both of us. Circumstances will prevail.
