In Raleigh, North Carolina, about a 1,000 Lefties gathered to protest a busing system change the Wake County School Board has enacted that they claim would result in schools being resegregated by organizing schools by neighborhood instead of by race. 19 of them, including the head of the North Carolina NAACP were arrested. Most of the arrests occurred when a group violently disrupted the meeting by gathering around the podium, chanting and singing.
Why is it when Lefties gather to protest, there are almost invariably some of them who commit acts of violent disruption and are arrested?
There have been thousands upon thousands of tea parties across the nation over the past two years, and very few people have been arrested. In fact, when arrests occur it is almost always because of Lefty counter-protesters.
Here are the names of those arrested and the charges against them [source for list], note that a good number of them are not even residents, nor (upon further investigation by yours truly) registered voters of Wake County.

Trespassing and Disorderly Conduct? Do they sound like peaceful protesters? They sound like people who are willing to commit violence, and break the law, in order to get their way...instead of relying on the tried and true method of acting at the ballot box.
Here is a challenge for you Lefties out there, find me documentation of a tea party that has disrupted a government meeting, seized control of the podium, and resisted arrest. You can't, because the tea parties are peaceful affairs focused on enacting change via the ballot box.
The Left seems not to have faith in free and fair elections...and put more stock in violent disruptions and protests. It is a good thing that the Wake County School Board has not bowed to the terroristic acts of the NAACP.

Wow. There's nothing I hate more than violent singing.
It is a form of violence because they forced police to use force to remove them from the meeting. It is akin to martial artists who use the force of their opponent against them, like in Aikido.
Like any fight, it takes two. If the protesters had stayed within the guidelines of the public meeting, it would be fine. They could have their say and leave. Instead, they forced their presence upon everyone else at the meeting, stealing time that was not allocated to the, and obligating law enforcement to physically restrain them and remove them from the scene. This is an old ploy of Lefty protesters. They think this allows them to claim victim status...the Holy Grail of Leftist thinking.
Their goal, just like that of classical terrorism, is to generate an over zealous response from either the meeting organizers, or law enforcement. I consider them no different than someone who teases a dog that is chained, then gets mauled when the chain breaks. Neither has my sympathy.
I honestly cannot tell if this blog is serious or satirical a la Stephen Colbert.
ʘ‿ʘ Although I do love satire, this particular article is serious. Trouble is, it is never recognized as such when I do it, so I don't do it as much as I used to...
