Local leftists rallied in Oakland last night in support of the Tucson shooting victims but more importantly to point out the dangers of conservative speech.
It turned into one of their typical hatefests.
Via The PJ Tatler:

From PJ Media:

Roy Wilson: “Dr. King enters this struggle boldly. He says, ‘Violence anywhere is a threat to violence everywhere. An injustice anywhere, is a threat to injustice everywhere. Rhetoric inciting violence anywhere, is a call to rhetoric to incite violence everywhere.’

Sarah Palin, Glenn Beck, others in the Tea Party trend, claim that political events tied to violence and rhetoric tied to violence are not causing the division in our nation. Tens of thousands of African-Americans have been lynched in a sea of rhetoric dripping with racist blood. Workers have been shot down on the picket line, drummed under by the rhetoric of mis-accusations. Students have been shot down protesting for peace under the rhetoric of unamericanism. Tens of thousands of Native Americans have been annihilated under the rhetoric of White American exceptionalism. We have to act. Dr. King says that ‘Courage is the ability to go forward in spite of frightening situations. Cowardness’ he says, ‘is a submissive surrender to circumstance.’

We’re asking everyone to ask all of our elected officials at the municipal level, the county level, the state level, the federal government, to pass laws that prohibit the use of rhetoric and actions and campaigns that incite violence. We ask that we all go back to our organizations of faith, our unions, our schools, our high schools, our middle schools, our elementary schools, and create statements demanding that there be communication and debate based on love, based on peace, based on community, based on a stronger democracy. Now, we have to be courageous because some of may say that’s just not enough, or why, that might not make a difference. Remember, words make a difference. I’ve just asked all of us to do some things and put words in the public, put words with the official seal of our government, put words under the titles of our schools, that say “We are family.”

Nice peace rally, loons.

  1. Do the fools not realize that what they are asking is the literal overthrow of the Bill of Rights?

  2. You gotta’ love the irony.
    In one breath he accuses conservatives and white people of committing mass murder then in the next breath he says “We’re asking everyone to ask all of our elected officials at the municipal level, the county level, the state level, the federal government, to pass laws that prohibit the use of rhetoric and actions and campaigns that incite violence.”

  3. California needs new laws:

    The “Don’t give a Liberal Idiot a Microphone Law” should fit in with the other 1,000+ other laws they passed in the last 12 months.

    I say we start building a fence around California. Bring in the jackhammers and send that cesspool out to sea.

  4. And anyone should be surprised why? Fresco freaks and local fools are ground zero for Socialist and anti American hate speech.

    Guess Roy Wilson forgot Obama Manufacturing Czar Ron Bloom’s comments “We kinda agree with Mao that Political Power comes largely from the barrel of a gun” But then why would it?

  5. Gee, now, what was it their great hero, Barack Obama said?

    “At a time when we are far too eager to lay the blame for all that ails the world at the feet of those who think differently than we do,” the president said, “it’s important for us to pause for a moment and make sure that we are talking with each other in a way that heals, not a way that wounds.”

    “For the truth is that none of us can know exactly what triggered this vicious attack. None of us can know with any certainty what might have stopped those shots from being fired, or what thoughts lurked in the inner recesses of a violent man’s mind.”

    “So yes, we must examine all the facts behind this tragedy. We cannot and will not be passive in the face of such violence. We should be willing to challenge old assumptions in order to lessen the prospects of violence in the future.”

    “But what we can’t do is use this tragedy as one more occasion to turn on one another. As we discuss these issues, let each of us do so with a good dose of humility. Rather than pointing fingers or assigning blame, let us use this occasion to expand our moral imaginations, to listen to each other more carefully, to sharpen our instincts for empathy, and remind ourselves of all the ways our hopes and dreams are bound together…”

    **************

    Roy Wilson would be well-advised to pay attention to what his President said. Mr. Wilson’s words do not live up to the standard set by the US President he allegedly supports.

  6. I say Let them shout it from the highest mountain. The more America sees the nuts the better chance we have of defeating the morons at the ballot box.

    What a great memorial ! Gotta love libs.

  13. Given what Roy Wilson said and what Obama said last night, what we are watching is the separation of the far left from the left. The far left is once again out in the political wilderness. The divorce is pending, with proceedings to begin when Obama starts going centrist in the next couple months, in preparation for 2012.

    Got me a big ol’ sh*t eatin’ grin.

  14. The left starts the lie (propaganda) of right wing rhetoric inciting violence, they repeat the lie in unison and BAM, it becomes fact….to them.

    Joseph Goebbels – ““If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it”

    This is how global warming became established as ‘fact’ to the left.

  15. “Blame Bush” is sooooooo yesterday. Time to Pick A New Target (Alinsky-Rules For Radicals). “Blame Palin”.

  16. The hateful and vile actions of the Frisco freaks in the 60′s directed at returning Vietnam Vets, pretty well defined my choice of Party affiliation. I have an absolute and committed hate for the Commies of Frisco.

  17. via Drudge:

    51 pages of police reports on Jared the Murderer have been released.

    See them here:

  18. I think he botched the quote. It’s “injustice anywhere”, not “violence anywhere”:

    “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly”

    Here’s some more MLK this knucklehead should read.

    “Like an unchecked cancer, hate corrodes the personality and eats away its vital unity. Hate destroys a man’s sense of values and his objectivity. It causes him to describe the beautiful as ugly and the ugly as beautiful, and to confuse the true with the false and the false with the true.”

    “There is an almost universal quest for easy answers and half-baked solutions. Nothing pains some people more than having to think.”

    “I say to you that our goal is freedom, and I believe we are going to get there because however much she strays away from it, the goal of America is freedom.”

    “Men often hate each other because they fear each other; they fear each other because they don’t know each other; they don’t know each other because they can not communicate; they can not communicate because they are separated.”

    Or they can’t communicate because it’s been forbidden by fascists like these folks in San Francisco.

  19. Well, David Ignatius, at least, is ready to begin the real discussion:

    http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2011/01/13/cries_we_choose_to_ignore_108519.html

    I do disagree with some of what he has to say, mainly because he seems to attribute our poor handling of the mentally ill to lack of compassion. I honestly think he’s wrong on that point. It’s not that we don’t care, it’s that we haven’t been able to figure out what to do that would not make the situation worse.

    We have in the past lacked the information and knowledge we would need to reliably tell whether a person who is mentally ill has become a danger to others.

    If we review what we now know about mentally ill people who have not committed crimes compared to those who have, we may find that we can now make reasonable predictions. At the very least, we may find that we can identify the questions that would lead us to the ability to make reasonable predictions.

  20. I always love it when pasty white liberals invike the name of Rev, King…most know nothing of the man or his message..they do it to garner the “respect” of those they truly fear…the Black man (yes, libs do fear minorities more than they actually care about them, so appeasment is their insurance)

    More troubling is the fact that Blacks and other minorities actually embrace these misfortunates..haven’t they figured out after all these decades that they are nothing more then pawns in the advancement of the libs agenda?

  21. #3

    There is very little wrong with California. It needs two changes: a right-to-work law so that the unions are accountable to their membership, and budget reform to reduce the volatility in their state income stream.

  22. Saw this somewhere else, did anyone notice that at 1:20 the tv crew lights go out? The tv crew realized that they were filming yet another lib going off the rails and rather than have evidence of that they shut it down and walked off, no doubt hoping that nobody else would tape it and provide evidence that Wilson is a loon. mpw

  23. The left is inciting violence against the right with their blaming of the right and conservatives for this shooter’s actions. It is obvious that they will go to any length to shut up Sarah Palin, Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, and any one who speaks up against what they are doing to the U.S. Let’s remember socialists not only need, but have to control the airwaves. The left realizes that if the right and conservatives didn’t have the air waves to let the people of America know the truth about what is really going on, they would have won with a landslide in the last election. It is the left that is pissed, and they are going to use any crisis to their advantage. If the left wants ‘ to pass laws that prohibit the use of rhetoric and actions and campaigns that incite violence’, they obviously believe that all their negative rhetoric will be exempt. This is all about shutting up the right.

  24. I’m actually surprised that nobody has blamed the Jews yet.

    But I guess the “evil Joooooos” ™ are too busy sending attack sharks and spy vultures to Egypt.

  25. ruh-roh…

  26. The shooter’s friend said that the shooter had watched ‘Zeitgeist: The Movie’ and this is when the shooter was greatly affected – paraphrasing.

    Her is Part 1 of 5 – only 7 minutes long.

    Announcement via TRBO

    In this new year, both Groundhog Day and the State
    of the Union address will occur on the same day.

    As an insightful commenter points out:

    It is an ironic juxtaposition of events: one involves the meaningless
    ritual in which we look to an insignificant creature of little intelligence
    for prognostication . . .

    The other involves a groundhog.

  32. Ya gotta love these puffed-up, self-righteous Lib-nuts who passionately rant ad-nauseum about all the anti-black racism and lynchings, the harrassing and assault upon civil liberty demonstraters…..

    …..uh huh…..you mean like the ones I remember seeing all throughout the 1960s and onward, where rabid bands of Southern DEMOCRATS were in full-blown, insane, bigot-mode as they desparately tried to stem the tide of full citizenship rights being given to anyone whose skin pigmentation was a tad darker than their own bleached Klan hoods.

    Pot calling kettle, pot calling kettle, come in kettle!

    Why Martin Luther King Was Republican

    [It should come as no surprise that Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was a Republican. In that era, almost all black Americans were Republicans. Why? From its founding in 1854 as the anti-slavery party until today, the Republican Party has championed freedom and civil rights for blacks. And as one pundit so succinctly stated, the Democrat Party is as it always has been, the party of the four S's: slavery, secession, segregation and now socialism.

    It was the Democrats who fought to keep blacks in slavery and passed the discriminatory Black Codes and Jim Crow laws. The Democrats started the Ku Klux Klan to lynch and terrorize blacks. The Democrats fought to prevent the passage of every civil rights law beginning with the civil rights laws of the 1860s, and continuing with the civil rights laws of the 1950s and 1960s.]

    Run Away!!

  34. I KNEW Obama’s speech wouldn’t make a molecule’s worth of difference to the current leftist over-the-top anti-conservative warpath. They are right back at it. Obama was not anywhere near firm enough with these shrieking babies and we all know why. I really cannot fathom the RINOs who fell all over themselves showering Obama with praise last night.

    about that Glock..

    he lived at home, his Mother worked for the County, and they keep on lying
    about almost every aspect of this case until the unavoidable truth bubbles
    to the surface and they can no longer cover it up.. ergo, i really wouldn’t be
    surprised if it turns out that he didn’t purchase the gun, and that it was his
    Mothers who left it lying about the house vs locking it up.. but that’s just
    speculation folks, not the same as saying that’s the way it was WC style..

  37. Just days after a Democratic adviser comes out and says that Barack Obama “needs” an “Oklahoma City” event so that he can connect with the American people – a democrat (who just happened to have challenge Obama & vote against Pelosi, suddenly gets shot, along with a conservative member of the 9th Circus court of appeals, and —-what? are we suppose to believe that it is just a coincidence? Obama and the Democrats are the ones who had the most to gain from this.

  41. The fact that Oakland is full of sculpture clay people, just lumps of clay through and through who can be molded into statues for the imperial liberal armies comes to know surprise.
    An army of useful idiots, blame them not, they are doomed to obey their masters, powerless to do anything about it.

    Kinda sad actually.

  42. I was just reading comments on an article about a young guy arrested for making threats against a WA congress person. The comments were completely off the charts blaming the right. Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh the usual.
    I can not see how this doesn’t end up with violent retaliation against the right.

    re: pass laws that prohibit the use of rhetoric
    and actions and campaigns that incite violence.

    in case no one recognizes where that would lead, let me remind you that
    Obama banned hate speech against Islam.. and in case you still don’t get
    it.. look up SHARIA LAW.. nothing would make Obama more proud of himself
    than enacting SHARIA LAW in the US.. but hey, don’t take my word for it,
    do your own research, albeit i’ve been doing research since 9/11, not until
    i heard the name Obama did the loose ends start to tie themselves so to
    speak..

  48. Henry, in their defense, the Prez and the VP generally don’t attend the same event, ever.

    (Not that law or precedent or tradition normally means jack squat to this administration.)

  49. Leftist don’t control which words are acceptable.
    Leftist don’t get to dictate what is and is not “good” or “bad” speech.
    Leftist don’t control my speech period.
    Outside of yelling, “FIRE!” in a crowded space, my right to speak my mind is inviolate.

  50. Oakland is full of nut jobs like this. That’s why the city is in the shape it is….they are stupid!

  51. Where the hell do these morons come from ? Can anyone tell me how you become an adult with their screwy belif systems. I do not know why I am suprised anymore but I cannot comprehend what makes people think the way a liberal does.

    Of course they realize it.. they do not want the Bill of Rights for those foolish American people, it gets in the way of protecting them from US..

    ‘There is hardly a better way to degrade the entire idea of political speech than by classing everyone who is in any way critical of the government as “anti-government”. Such a label creates two camps, the camp of government and the camp of everyone unhappy with government, and defines the latter camp by the actions of a psychotic killer, who was unhappy with government, grammar and higher mathematics, among a seemingly inexhaustible supply of other things. Such a course is not only intellectually dishonest, it is also far more dangerous than slapping a bullseye across a congressman.

    After 9/11, some liberals claimed that the Bush Administration was tearing up the Constitution over the deaths of a few thousand people by an organized worldwide terrorist network. Yet now they feel compelled to attack the 1st and 2nd amendments of the Bill of Rights over the deaths of a far smaller number of people at the hands of madman who acted alone. And it isn’t the first time.

    We don’t need the 1st Amendment to protect the political speech of those in power and their supporters. There isn’t a country in the world where that’s in danger. We could tear up the Constitution tomorrow with complete confidence that the rights of those in power will not be infringed on in any way. What we need the 1st Amendment for is to protect the speech of those who aren’t in power, whether it’s the political opposition or the ordinary citizen angry at the government.

    The idea that we should compromise the first two amendments of the Bill of Rights because of the actions of a madman is untenable. And for the ruling party to trade in rhetoric that undermines the protections of the Bill of Rights for political gain or personal power is a horrifying act that should be universally condemned.’…

  53. California is a hopeless state. Bankrupt, run by illegal immigrants and huge welfare state. All we need get that San Andres fault to happen and break away from the rest of the states.

  54. Need to get every conservative in Oregon, Nevada, and Arizona to go to the California border and jump and down a lot.

  55. Henry Hawkins, how about doing a reverse of what the leftists have done (or are doing) to Nevada etc.: migrate en masse and tip the electoral balance. Once the lefties finish making a wreck of the desert, let them keep it.

    Why let the lefties have the nicest real estate all to themselves?
