Breaking: Radical Union Organizer-Black Liberation Activist Slugs Tea Party Protester in Face (Video) …Update: YouTube Removes Attack Video
Posted by Jim Hoft on Thursday, June 10, 2010, 6:25 AM
More Hope and Change–
Barack Obama gave his marching orders:
Obama: “They Bring a Knife…We Bring a Gun”
Obama to His Followers: “Get in Their Faces!”
Obama on ACORN Mobs: “I don’t want to quell anger. I think people are right to be angry! I’m angry!”
Obama To His Mercenary Army: “Hit Back Twice As Hard”
Obama to BP: “We talk to these folks… So I know whose a$$ to kick.”
Now it’s playing out on the streets.
On Tuesday June 8, the North Carolina Tea Party Patriots held a protest against government bailouts in front of Rep. Mel Watt’s (D-N.C.) Greensboro office. During the protest a raging leftist goon, Governor Spencer, turned out, disrupted the protest, confronted the patriots, argued with them and then… He started throwing punches!
The whole thing was caught on tape.
The raging goon, Governor Spencer, slugged Nathan Tabor, a business owner and head of the Forsyth County Republican Party and a former candidate for senator.
But, that’s not all…
Governor Spencer is a union organizer, a socialist and a black liberation activist.
Spencer led the Greensboro K-Mart protests of 1995 and mobilized families, communities, and “the Pulpit Forum of Greensboro, a coalition of progressive clergy, to commit acts of civil disobedience.”
Word World reported:
K-Mart Labor Struggle, 1995
Calvin Miller, Greg Headon, Governor Spencer, and Deborah Compton-Holt explained how K-Mart Warehouse Center employment practices and conditions had become unbearable, causing workers to organize around questions of economic justice. Attempts at organizing had been quelled. These veteran labor organizers recounted how they mobilized their families, communities, and the Pulpit Forum of Greensboro, a coalition of progressive clergy, to commit acts of civil disobedience and bring pressure to bear on K-Mart until they negotiated in good faith for a fairer contract. In the end, the workers triumphed, although the struggle continues. Students from local colleges, both black and white, joined the K-Mart boycotts and there was massive media coverage throughout the nation.
Governor Spencer and his associates “enlisted race to resist heirarchy.”
And, maybe you noticed this from the video… Governor Spencer has a black liberation flag bumper sticker on his car.
And, that’s just what we know right now.
The real question is “Was this just a chance beating?”… Or, “Was this Governor Spencer just following orders from above?”
You’ll have to decide that for yourself.
UPDATE: YouTube removed the attack video this afternoon. I posted the Eyeblast video of the attack thanks to Ed at HotAir.

Good catch on the BLO bumper sticker.

Thugs are not smart enough to think for themselves, they take orders from higher up.
Yesterday on Glen Beck’s show, he explained how the Marxists and the Anarchists are going to attack one another with the rest of us in the middle.

#3 Jean-
I saw that one; Beck believes the Uber-Progressive-Left and the By-Any-Means-Anarchists “used each other” to get all these way-far-lefties into power (Obama & all his appointees and cronies), but that now the anarchists are disappointed that BHO isn’t dismantling capitalism and crippling the economy fast enough to suit them — they want the destabilization and subsequent revolution NOW!
And, considering the way the truly committed Commies and Marxists of the past have operated –like Bernadine Dohrn, they believe a few million dead here and there is the “price of progress”– he say he fears for the safety of those Leftists that aren’t dancing to the tune those anarchists are playing.
Interesting times indeed.
OxyCon commented:
Great list of Obama’s violent rhetoric, but don’t forget to add this nugget:
“My administration is the only thing between you and the pitchforks,” Barack Obama told the CEOs of the world’s most powerful financial institutions on March 27, when they cited competition for talent in an international market as justification for paying higher salaries to their employees.
Arrayed around a long mahogany table in the White House state dining room, the bankers struggled to make themselves clear to the president, but he wasn’t in a mood to hear them out. He interrupted them by saying, “Be careful how you make those statements, gentlemen. The public isn’t buying that.”
To get the full flavor of the president’s implication we must remember that in Obama’s code language, the word “pitchforks” means “a vigorous campaign of threats and intimidation perpetrated by Obama-sponsored ACORN and union activists in conjunction with theatrical outrage from government officials, amplified by the complicit media, and coordinated from one political center, which has now moved to the White House.”

Although scary as all get out, it is fun to watch the different factions of the left and far left go at one another. If balance can be restored, they will not be looked too as they have been in the past. You just knew that once they got control of the whole thing, they would overreach. People are now realizing that this is not what they voted for, and he is not what is ever needed as potus.

Decent people all across the country have had a belly-full of these idiots abusing their rights and priveleges. They have assumed civil rights that go way beyond what affirmative action said was due them.
I can’t truthfully say I would have shown the restraint the guy that got assaulted did.
Looks like it’s going to be a long hot summer.
AuntieMadder commented:
Is “Governor” Spencer’s first name?
PCM commented:
So what happened after that? Was he arrested for assault, as he should have been?
kansas commented:
The guy that got assualted was obviously not used to playing with people who are willing to get violent. He was all mouthy but unwilling to get physical. Get punched in head while holding a camera, smash camera in assailants face. Several times.
archer52 commented:
Good thing Mr. Spencer didn’t push my wife. He would be still at the scene when the police arrived- broken, bloodied, unconscious and probably struggling to breath. The police would say, “Which one pushed your wife?” “The guy in the pool of blood. Be careful, I think he’s crazy. He must of lost his mind if he thought he could touch my wife and still draw breath.”
Like I said before, this is going to get ugly. It has to, it is the natural order of things. These people seek to rule you. Many of the people will submit to that rule out of fear, complacency or ignorance. Only a small percentage will stand and fight. The left knows that and they will try to break you down, hoping to crush your spirit.
We’ll see if Mr. Spencer will actually catch an arrest in that state. If not, then add that government to those which have been corrupted.
Great, now I’ll be p***ed off for the rest of the day.
Kevin P commented:
Don’t forget this when saying what you would have done to Governor…
“Nathan Tabor, a business owner and head of the Forsyth County Republican Party and a former candidate for senator.”
I PRAISE Nathan Tabor for his principled restraint!!!
Imagine the headlines if he’d have beaten down this scumbag… seriously!
“Former REPUBLICAN SENATE CANDIDATE…”
“TEA PARTY MEMBER…”
“… beats black civil rights supporter unconscious.”
To win a very small battle here could have cost the war.

Spencer was charged with assault, he then filed a similar complaint against Nathan Tabor.
A typical defense Lawyer trick.
I once had a guy attack me with a led pipe; when he got 2 black eyes in the process of my taking it away from him his lawyer brought assault & battery charges against me.
He was found guilty of assault & battery, but I still had to spend money & time defending myself against the charges.

I am frightened for America, but I do have my guns.
Patman commented:
This was a leftist set up that backfired.
It’s so obvious.
A single black dude gets in the face of a mostly white protest group. Isolated, he provokes the crowd to either bump him or worse. It doesn’t happen.
Instead, Governor Idiot get flustered and hits a girl. Then face punches the husband- ALL ON VIDEO!!!
Zoink! Major backfire.
Hope this goes beyond Drudge, Hot Air and Fox.
jimg commented:
Get in my face like that, and you’re already itching for trouble.
But touch my wife?
You’re dead. Seriously. Not a beat down. Not an assault. But dead. And I will chew your face off just for kicks.
And then I’ll be more than willing to deal with the consequences of my actions.

Exactly. And if that turd had gotten what was really coming to him after assaulting Tabor and his wife, just who do you think would have gone to jail?
When in a teaparty protest, the video camera is your best friend. Don’t ever forget that the police escorted SEIU thugs to harass a BoA executive. Nor that the police really work for the current power structure.
Now if you met Govenor walking down the street late at night when you both alone…..
Neo commented:
That’s all you Obama-haters needed huh? A moronic, short-tempered black Obama supporter who talks better with his fists than his mouth. This “gentleman” in no way, shape or form represents the mass of us who feel this President, like all black men in the US, is not starting from the beginning, but two strikes behind the count.
While you are so quick to point out that this black man is a staunch activist of all things black, let’s not lose sight of the fact that all of the mostly white sign-waving people in the video are standing up for their beliefs as well. Obviously, neither side has spent any time learning the real facts, as indicated by the arguments from both sides, rather, one side gets its “facts” from the likes of Glenn Beck while the other has its opinion shaped by its equally uninformed friends and colleagues.
All in all, it’s apparent that no matter how you slice it, it’s sadly all about race. No matter what, you will not convince those opposed to having a black president that this POTUS is, indeed, highly qualified to lead this once great nation back to greatness. Likewise, those who support him based solely on the color of his skin will never be convinced that he can, indeed, be incompetent.
The same can and will be said about any future presidents of ANY minority persuasion. As a nation, with regards to racial, cultural, social, or gender issues…overcoming our differences is a losing proposition.
Frankly, you all make me sick.
archer52 commented:
Kevin’s wrong. Nobody cares about headlines anymore. Tabor should have stroked the man. So the headlines read “White man beats black man.” It will read that anyway. The message needs to be sent on a more personal level or they will get emboldened. I spent twenty years in law enforcement at the sharp end of the spear. I know people and scumbags alike. I “get” arrogant bullies. Here is my post from my website.
http://truthandcommonsense.com/2010/06/10/over-at-gateway-they-made-me-take-my-blood-pressure-pill-again-black-activitists-assault-a-woman-in-front-of-her-husband-and-walks-away/
I shared a story at another website about how a criminal gang was targeting my home and wife. They wanted to find the house and burn it down, with my pregnant wife in it. I found one of the leaders of that gang and “talked” with him. He believed me and for years would literally run when he saw me with my family. I learned that lesson from a veteran detective and friend. He said simply, “make them believe you are the angel of death and they will behave around you.” When protecting my wife and my family, I am the angel of death.
Trust me, no good cop will fault you for it either. They all “get” it.
Auntie Em commented:
Neo
You have a narrow-minded view of the situation. Had the colors been reversed in this scenerio, there would be a different way to handle it with a totally different narrative. Secondary to your political-correctiveness and overreaching, white men are behind the proverbial “8 ball” so I give no respect to a black man starting with 2 strikes. No matter how much we give or how many things are let slide in the name of “equality” and keeping “peace”, it will never be equal, as you said in your post.
How showing two sides of the coin would make you sick at “you all” is kind of immature don’t ya think?

Its clear that everytime violence erupts — SEIU, Acorn and The Black Liberation Movement are in the mix. I hope the Police throw the book at Governor (ha ha) Spencer.
Sandy commented:
This kind of thuggery by the Left is what will finish the Dems. They should be out there decrying this type of violence — but the sound of silence is deafening.
Patman commented:
Neo, the guy hit a woman and her husband.
If a white guy did that to a black Obama supporting husband and wife, it would be headline news across the world about how all white Americans are racists.
Jack commented:
I don’t think I would have had the restraint that Tabor showed. Won’t be surprised to see counter protest from leftist thugs increase in the future where they incite violent actions.
Last month Glenn Beck started a movement for 912ers, TPers and like minded people to sign a “non-violent” pledge like the MLK civil rights protesters were required to sign. Don’t know what happened with it as I haven’t heard anything further about it.
I understand what he’s trying to do but I will not back down to those people.
The progressives are getting nervous and they may be running out of time to get their agenda rammed down our throats before November.

if “Mister” Spencer would push my wife… or anyone I care about… Oh dear. Ever seen an angry bear go totally postal? Yep, that’s my reaction.
These red fascists have no arguments. Whether that bugger is black or white matters not. All I see is yet another SA trooper doing his master’s bidding. Yet another Little Hitler (which was a term used in WW2 for all the low ranking NSDAP nutjobs who thought they were so damn important and harrassed people with pointless things.)
I say it again:
The color of the skin of the people involved is irrelevant.
What is important is that free speech is something the red fascists don’t like. And their way of dealing with things they don’t like is violence.
And Neo, have you ever actually listened to Beck? I really hate to admit it, but he usually hits the target with what he says. How do I know?
Well, I see Obama’s ideas not working at all over here in Europe.

Kitty commented:
Although I wasn’t physically assaulted, I was verbally assaulted by an enraged stranger. As I was walking to my car in the supermarket parking lot yesterday morning, I heard a man shouting. I figured he was shouting because it was very windy. It didn’t occur to me that he was shouting at me. Instead I thought he was probably shouting to a friend and trying to be heard over the wind.
When I reached my car, I looked up and saw the shouter in a new-looking black truck and didn’t recognize him. He sounded very angry as he shouted BUSH WAS A F’N IDIOT JUST LIKE YOU! I ignored him then realized he must have seen the W sticker in the window of my car. When he drove by I could see he was really worked up, LIVID, as he looked right at me and shouted it again. This time he added, YOU EVEN LOOK LIKE A F’N IDIOT!
I was a little unnerved by his visible rage, especially since he was shouting at me before I had even reached my car. Does he know me? How did he know that was my car? It was also unnerving considering what the lefties are doing these days.
archer52 commented:
Dark ages and violence are not connected. Violence in defense of your family and yourself is not uncivilized. What is uncivilized is thinking that we should become a victim to SHOW we are civilized. In my career one of the greatest frustrations I suffered was watching violent habitual felons walk free because “they served their debt to society” even though we all knew they were going to do it again. Why is it that we are civilized when we allow a predator to prey on innocent children and the elderly? Would it not be more of a civilized society if we kept them locked up and unable to commit the crimes?
In Mr. Spencer’s case how did we improve our civilization by allowing him to strike a woman?
Society policies itself in my different ways. Saudis have moral police. British have neighborhood committees. Americans use the police and on occasion what I like to call “The Duke” method, in honor of John Wayne. Simply put, people need to behave or they might find themselves on the seat of their pants with this bell rung. It is all about keeping society civil.

What whiney little bitches. The same old excuse all the time about starting from behind because of skin color. For some reason, though, skin color doesn’t seem to hold Africans back when they immigrate. Nor does it seem to hold back Indians. Or even Cubans.
The only people who seem to be held back by skin color are those who are looking for an excuse for personal failure. Such as the epic failure currently infesting the White House.

An excellent reason to carry a concealed weapon. These leftards (and their jihadi allies) seem to believe that their strong emotions and unshakeable belief in their foul ideologies gives them the right to be as abusive and as violent as they wish.

Big L commented:

Why was this guy allowed to drive away?
We have to realize that many of us are going to die before this is over. The police will have to fire on us based on their orders and need to protect their families. Already they are escorting SEIU 500 snail-strong protests. And too the Police are Unions too.They haveto follow the Union orders, first.
Allen Funt commented:
From the video, looks to me like the first physical contact was made by Nathan Tabor when he shoved Spencer who then punched him in retaliation. This may not be as clear as described in this post.
iconoclast commented:
Not on the Fox8 video, which is the only video that seems to remain of this incident. It is clear on that video that Spencer initiated the conflict.
Unless, of course, you adhere to the Helen Thomas school of journalism. In which case, what ever you want to be the truth is the truth.

“While you are so quick to point out that this black man is a staunch activist of all things black, let’s not lose sight of the fact that all of the mostly white sign-waving people in the video are standing up for their beliefs as well.”
Neo, did you lose the narrative? The White sign-wavers were PEACEFULLY protesting, exercising their Constitutionally protected rights. The black man strode in and brought violence, which violated the rights of those “mostly-white” protesters. The Whites were minding their own business, just taking a break from paying the taxes that allow half the population to sit on their couches and watch Oprah all day.
Why don’t any black liberation activists move to Africa? Sub-Saharan Africa is a paradise now that only a few million Whites remain on the continent and none hold positions of power. The governments are black, the schools are black, the police are black, the businesses are black owned and run, sex must be plentiful and easy to come by given the AIDS infection rates, and billions of dollars in foreign aid money flows in weekly. I can’t imagine a better place than Zimbabwe or Azania for this type of gentlemen to relocate.
I don’t know why they put up with this horrible country…except for the free money, free housing, free food, free college, racial preferences in admission and hiring, special status before the law (hate crimes legislation), cheap pizza, plentiful energy, free treatment down at the hospital from qualified personnel, the churches and aid societies that hand out a bounty of billions donated by the Decent to help the unfortunate, and often the indolent, and the lack of child soldiering and tribal butchery…if it weren’t for that stuff I bet they’d be out of here like a shot. Hey, there’s a idea!

The problem is, your own statement points out that black activists are concerned with “all things black” whereas the beliefs of the “mostly white sign-waving people” could be universally applied regardless of race or any of your other divisive political identities.

To Neo,
YOU are the one who makes ME sick. I live in Greensboro and have had to put up with thugs like this for far too long. And again, YOU are the one who puts race in the forefront of your arguments time and time again. As for the vast majority of TEA Party Patriiots, we could care less about the color of someone’s skin, we just want someone responsible and with half a brain as our president. Look at the damage this goofball has done in such a short time – 100 times more damaging than anything you like to constantly blame Bush for. You know as well as I do that Obama is just an empty suit, incredibly ignorant in foreign affairs and economics.
And yes, the majority of obama supporters I run into DO act like a bunch of thugs. A bunch of loud foul mouthed ignorant thugs that can’t string three words together without two of them being curse words.
Socialist union punk thugs.
Neo commented:
You people all crack me the heck up. First, in your blatant ignorance, you assumed that I’m black just bc I acknowledge that a racist element does exist in this country and that it is clearly the largest motivation behind opposition to President Obama. How sad.
Secondly, not only did I not vote for BHO, I voted for GWB both times and proudly supported and defended him when everyone around me was only upset at the shoe hurler’s poor aim. Yes, I was a huge fan of Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity, Neal Boortz and Fox News for the entire period of the Bush presidency and applauded their “patriotism”. I now realize that it is not at all about patriotism, indeed, it is about politics for some and race for others.
You don’t have to agree with me but take a minute for yourselves and read the comments directed toward me when most of you incorrectly assumed my race. To be truthful, I believe that far too many African-Americans use race as a crutch and an excuse for not trying hard enough to make it for themselves. True enough. Additionally, most black people are powder kegs waiting for any White person to light the fuse so that they will have a “reason” to explode on them. I was a victim of this sentiment myself years ago. It was only in reflection that I realized my part in propagating this person’s actions against me.
None of you should be mistaken. I love all people bc I am a Christian first and foremost. What I hate is the bigotry that exists in this country toward Blacks and Mexicans. I have never been either one, but I’m guessing that none of you have either. Try taking a step out of your own comfortable lives and just imagine what it must be like for those people who are hated simply bc of the race and circumstances they are born into. Sure they can overcome, as did BHO, but the truth is, 99% of them will never enjoy the luxuries that we as White Americans have enjoyed for centuries. That alone is an angering reality for most minorities.
By the same token, there are so many Whites that simply do not want to see minorities succeed bc that will mean that now they will be moving into our “exclusive” neighborhoods with their rap music, drugs, and violence. If you so vehemently disagree with me, I’m probably talking about you. I listen to my neighbors during our HOA meetings and trust me, they have changed their disposition toward me now that they know how disgusting their comments and thoughts are to me. Again, it’s just sad.
For the poster that made the Africa comments, you could be my neighbor. That type of ignorance is just as reprehensible as “The White man this…the White man that…” attitude that most ignorant Blacks have.
By the way, did I mention that Governor Spencer was dead wrong, and if he had put his hands on my loved one, I may have not exercised the same restraint that Nathan Tabor did. No, it would not have risen to the level of reaching for my Glock…at that point, but it would not have gone unchecked.
For AKW: What is the purpose of posting this man’s home address online? Do you want to be responsible for the possible harm that could befall his family members who have nothing to do with his actions? Do you know if there are small innocent children in the house?

Jane commented:
The thug is over the top. Sorry, but he’s got the same MO as the SEIU thug who attacked Kenneth Gladney. The federal government just granted hundreds of millions to hire 57,000 Americorp workers. I can’t help but think some of that money is going to support racost thugs like Spencer.
Also, will Mr. Tabor please instruct his wife to get behind him when trouble breaks out, not in front of him. Tabor is a big man and can probably take care of business. She really complicated things by getting in the way after she was initially pushed. I’m sure she thought she was helping, but it was aggravating to see her tie her husband up while someone was attacking him.

“Try taking a step out of your own comfortable lives and just imagine what it must be like for those people who are hated simply bc of the race and circumstances they are born into. Sure they can overcome, as did BHO, but the truth is, 99% of them will never enjoy the luxuries that we as White Americans have enjoyed for centuries. That alone is an angering reality for most minorities”
And who’s fault is this ,Mine? yours perhaps or maybe theirs. Did I, or did you tell them to smoke crack all day while other kids were and are in school preparing for the future. I or my Father wasn’t around in the 1800 hundreds and we never owned any Slaves, so I personally don’t owe anybody s**t!

Neo, you assume that anyone against 0bama has a race problem. You’re wrong. How you can have voted for GWB both times and say 0bama’s going to restore this country to greatness makes absolutely no sense. I don’t believe it for a minute.
And your arrogance is sickening.

I’ve uploaded the video on youtube again http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ub-_bsUs5b8
Neo commented:
Kozanne, it’s too bad you find my opinion to be so arrogantly sickening, simply bc you disagree with it. I happen to find most of the sentiments expressed in this thread appalling to say the least, but thank God we live in a country where our differences of opinion can be voiced, whether anyone likes it or not.
Judging from what I’ve read in most of these posts, most of those opposed to the current Administration would use their 2nd Amendment rights to make their point heard instead of their 1st Amendment right. No, I’m not a crazy anti-gun loon…I happen to be a proud owner of several. I just don’t need them to make my point. Then again, I’m not trying to “take my country back.” I don’t feel that it has been taken from me.
And for the last time, anyone who strikes another except in self-defense is just wrong whatever the race. However, there are just as many of these types of racist actions on one side as the other so let’s not get all self-righteous.
The main difference is the media coverage, and right now Fox News has that on lock.
Chisum commented:
“However, there are just as many of these types of racist actions on one side as the other so let’s not get all self-righteous.”
Are you implying that race crimes are equal between all groups? Minority vs white, white vs minority?
kozanne commented:
Honestly, Neo, I just don’t believe you. Are you one of those ‘concern’ trolls, or a moby, or whatever it is they’re called these days?
You say you’re a Christian? Christians are not arrogant. Anyone in my book that uses that expression “you people” or “all of you”, well, that’s just arrogance. You are entitled to your opinion, and as someone who participates in many forums, I have no problem with that, but when you start using the “you people” label, it’s all over.
I am not the one that is intolerant of other’s opinions. As the only ‘outed’ conservative in a family of Democrats [my father was a Congressman], I know what intolerance is.
Gary commented:
Thanks for re-uploading, merigoo. We all need to remember to download this kind of stuff right away b4 it’s gone, for whatever reason.
kozanne commented:
And just to keep the record straight, I may add that when I announced I was a conservative, the person that was the most ‘down’ with my decision was — my dad.
There ARE some good folks serving who are Dems. It’s party politics that prevents decisions from being made that are good for the country, rather, they are made based on their value to a PARTY.
Neo commented:
You people, you guys, you all, you…it’s all the same to me. No disrespect intended but don’t dare question my Christianity, knowing nothing about me.
How would you prefer I address ummm…everyone who is not me?
Russ Weiss commented:
Will this story be updated to note that both Spencer and Tabor were charged? Apparently both the local police and magistrate had access to the entire, unedited video and decided that both men should be charged.
From WXII12.com: A political activist and the man who punched him in the face at a rally in Forsyth County on Tuesday will both face charges, police said Thursday night.
It’s the punch seen around the country, and it happened in the Triad.
The fight broke out during a protest rally outside Rep. Mel Watts’ office on Greene Street in downtown Greensboro. About two-dozen people were marching in protest of liberal leaders in Washington and taxpayer-funded bailouts.
Police said Govenor Spencer, a 63-year-old Greensboro man and registered Democrat, hit activist Nathan Tabor, the head of Forsyth County’s Republican Party.
The confrontation started out as a shoving match, some of which was captured on camera.
Police said Spencer confronted the protestors, blaming the country’s problems on former President George W. Bush. Minutes later the shoving started and then came the punch, police said.
The story has spread like wildfire across the Internet. By mid-afternoon Tuesday, the video of the punch had more than 36,000 views on YouTube. Blog sites like “Frisk a Liberal” are also sharing the video with their followers.
On Thursday, Tabor was back organizing political rallies. His latest plan is to rally in Winston-Salem in support of Sen. Richard Burr.
Tabor said he has no bruises from the punch, but he can’t understand how magistrates in Greensboro ended up charging both him and Spencer with assault.
He said he admits that he pushed Spencer, but Tabor said he did so only after his wife was pushed by Spencer.
Both men have a July 7 court date for simple assault charges.

Your just wrong son,
I have the natural right to protect myself and my property. (no that is not my wife she is an extension of myself). color,dont care. my best neighbors were not of my race. Your being suckered son. got a book for you. Whites Blacks and racist democrats. Short read and highly annotated. your toast. Dare you to read the truth from a black minister. powder is dry.
kozanne commented:
Neo, if you really are a Christian, you would already know the answer.
Neo commented:
Exactly the kind of comment I’d expect from someone who has nothing of substance to say. Thanks for letting me know that. That means I wasn’t wrong to begin with.
Try reading Militant Conservative’s suggestions. I’ll pass. Any book written by anyone is simply their perspective and I’m not really interested. Except the Good Book, that is. And that one, I know very well, Kozanne. It’s like watching the various “news” channels that are more about editorializing than presenting actual news. That includes the majority of them.
By the way, MC, I take as much offense to the term “son” as Kozanne takes to being called “you”. And at what point did I dispute your right to protect yourself and property? That, my friend, is a God-given right, and no law in the land could or would take that away from you.
Pay attention people, and let me know if I need to slow down a little so you can catch up.

. “First, in your blatant ignorance, you assumed Additionally, most black people are powder kegs waiting for any White person to light the fuse so that they will have a “reason” to explode on them.

“What I hate is the bigotry that exists in this country toward Blacks and Mexicans. I have never been either one, but I’m guessing that none of you have either. Try taking a step out of your own comfortable lives and just imagine what it must be like for those people who are hated simply bc of the race and circumstances they are born into”
……………………
Well now, your assumptions are no better informed than anyone you snobby about.
We lived in Africa for years, our kids grew up there, different “race” different languages. The only “racist” charge they’ve ever heard in their lives came when we returned to the USA – and THAT from rich, private school- Ivy-League bound Black classmates. My kids thought they were joking, then realized these spoiled brats were serious. WHen class discussions come around to a topic my kids know first-hand, Africa or India, they are totally ignored in favor of Black kids who grew up in Cleveland and have “cruising the shopping malls” as their resumes. We have never seen such shallow, racially-formed stereotyping in our lives, from TEACHERS and kids whose parents had the money to send them to a school that was 100% college-placing to the nations best schools, located IN a town of poor white folks who had about a 20% college-bound rate (community college or state university only) – no scholarships for lower middle class white kids, just public school and grunt work at 18. One Black senior was accepted to ALL the military academies – and had to decide which one – how oppressive is that? THis is a very bad joke right now in this country.
And as for the “bigotry against Mexicans.” What is it called when hospitals provide expensive, state of the art services, and use up all sorts of medcal supplies and don’t get any payment for them? That “b” word, “bankrupcy.”
How come it isn’t “reform guest worker program?” If the USA announced today that on Monday, a guest worker ID would be available to any illegals who just want to work legally, but really don’t care about citizenship, with a $100 fee and a paid up policy of health insurance coverage by a reputable insurer so hospitals could get reimbursed for services, and pay local city taxes that pay for schools and emergency services, the lines outside these offices would be a 100 yards long.
The so-called “bigoted” Americans would be relieved, hiring would be easy, no sneaking about. Those who really want to be citizens can fill out their applications and start the proper process.
The rational that Mexicans “built our houses and clean our toilets” as irate justification for citizenship is nonsense.
We helped coordinate and deliver humanitarian emergency aid, water, food, sanitation, medical care to over 50,000 citizens of the country we resided in, a scary number of them would have died otherwise – that’s better than cleaning toilets or building a couple of houses for good wages, isn’t it? Clean toilets? Forget the brush, we built the latrines.
The notion to demand of the host government that they OWED us CITIZENSHIP because of that is ridiculous. WHy would we be even THINK to call those people “bigots?” It’s their country. It’s a bigot who thinks he or she is of such a special class of being that he or she don’t need to follow anyone else’s rules.
We’ve noticed that there is ONE pricing structure for ALL people in the USA. There aren’t “American prices” and “Mexican Prices,” in WALMART are there? Does a Mexican pay the same price as an American in Mexico?
Ah, huh. We could test it. Nice mango, “Combien?”
In India, they don’t even pretend – it’s up on the board for all to see: “Resident Price: 5 rupees, Foreigner Price: 50 rupees.”
Americans are foudn to be admirably tolerant and fair when compared to other nations.
wanumba commented:
Now, “we” didn’t water, feed and provide medical aid all by our lonesomes, like superwanumbas. That’s not the point of the account.
“We” represents also scores of Americans, mostly CHristians who gave up the good life in the USA to live years in one of the world’s poorest countries, then dropped what they were doing to help Muslims – people of a different faith – in dire straits – brutalized victims of some of the crassest, state-sponsored bigotry ever projected on the planet. THese scores of Americans in the US EMbassy, USAID, US Peace Corps, Catholic Relief Services, Lutheran World Federation, Caritias, CARE and tiny CHristian missionary groups also represent millions of other Americans world-wide who have given up the “good life” in America to live in what Mexicans are FLEEING. No,worse, because these countries have GNP per capitas of $500. or LESS, while Mexico has a GNP per cap of $6,000.
Today, right now, Americans are working quietly, leanring obscure languages, delivering medical care, building schools in conditions most Liberal Left Progressives would faint at, because FEW FEW Liberals care enough to give up their comforts to live amongst the poor in other countries.
So, what do the lazy Lefties say … “Bigots!” to stab their fellow hard-working and incredibly generous citizens in the back.

The biggest weapon against Neo, Governor Spencer and the hatists is a camera. They actually hit less and do less violence knowing they are on camera and will get caught.
The biggest media weapon for the state media is getting videos deleted. How is that working?

Neo joins the conversation with a sneering insult, followed by a string of fact-deficient assertions and studious misreadings of what happened in the video. And then he (she? it?) gets all indignant when we don’t respond with warm, welcoming cries of “thank you for enlightening us”.
AST commented:
The last time liberals engaged in peaceful demonstrations was during the Civil Rights Movement, when they practiced civil disobedience to unjust laws and were seen being beaten, attacked with dogs or fire hoses, and arrested. It worked well back then because they were fighting unjust laws, which punished them for peacefully protesting, boycotting segregated public transit, sitting in at segregation restaurants, etc. All of that brought their point home to the rest of the country that the segregation laws were repugnant.
However, this tactic only worked because the police responded with force, not with shouting or arguing. So-called pacifists, anarchists and anti-capitalism protesters don’t get beaten or manhandled just for peacefully marching, so they have to become unruly and break legitimate laws in order to get media attention, so they began to commit acts of violence, rioting, destruction of property, blockading traffic and generally disturbing the public order, so that when the police came and arrested them the media would cover it. In time, merely blocking public rights of way didn’t do it for them either, so they had to commit more serious crimes, like destroying property and assaulting people to get the attention they wanted.
The problem these union thugs have in confronting peaceful demonstrators against bailouts, deficits and government waste is that the Tea Parties aren’t doing anything illegal, and they, people like Governor Spencer, aren’t able to present any sound arguments against the anti-Obama protesters, and lose their cool and turn into thugs like he did. They thereby turn the tables on themselves and prove to neutral observers that it is the union reps who are trying to interfere with the civil rights we all have to “peaceably assemble and petition the government for redress of grievances.” Sic semper tyrannis.

The left thinks they have a monopoly on political violence. They’re wrong, and I suspect it won’t be long before they are rudely dispossessed of that fantasy.
