Gettin' hard to tell the difference between Madison, Seattle, or Portland.
Or Mogadishu.
Conan! What is best in life?
To crush your enemies...
See them driven before you...
...But especially to hear the lamentations of these women
Good morning starshine
The earth says "hello"
You twinkle above us
We twinkle below
Good morning starshine
You lead us along
My love and me as we sing
Our early morning singing song
Gliddy glup gloopy
Nibby nabby noopy la la la lo lo
Sabba sibby sabba
Nooby abba nabba le le lo lo
Tooby ooby walla nooby abba nabba
Early morning singing song
Gee. Who could have seen that coming?
Now the fools who run the city have lots of enraged taxpayers along with lots of fired-up protesters and videos of "police brutality", instead of just lots of disappointed protesters as would have been the case had the police been allowed to do their job initially.
Anarchic politics are again anarchic? Who'd of thought? But but but Noam Chomsky applied a 5-syllable-word veneer of credibility to anarcho-syndicalism for decades and decades. He's a Big Brained guy at MIT so he must have been right?
Just give it another decade. The anarchists will self-organize into warlords with harems, and the DEI/equity enablers will be remembered as founding martyrs and saints.
I'm glad to see the Crystal Corner bar is still there.
Why not just starve them and dewater them out?
Articulating bucket loaders. The prophesy has been fulfilled.
The fires were started when protestors threw memorial candles. Interesting fact: memorial candles were not invented by Vachyslav Molotov.
Intersection's closed
Time to go
You don't have to go home
But you will stay queer
Oh my god--they "nearly" hit a tent with people in it!
When the police with bullhorns tell you to get out of the way of the heavy equipment, get out of the way of the heavy equipment. How hard is that?
Fires: Same ideology and it never remembers history. Woodstock '99 was known for arson fires when they handed out "peace candles" too.

This should have been done a LONG time ago.
"Get out of the way of the heavy equipment."
Police: "Do you people have any idea how much damage you'd do to that expensive front loader if it were to hit you!?!"
CRAZies: "No...how much?"
Police: "None at all."
Wait. There was a tent housing people with heavy equipment?!?
Some times word order really distracts me, and the wrong imagery takes over. LOL.
I really do despise it when protestors trash public streets. I do not understand why people think it helps their cause.
And I also deeply dislike the arrogance of using spray paint to deface sidewalks, etc.
I wonder who made the decision to do this. Good for them.
Should have been done after the first night.
“Protestors are alleging that the streets division nearly hit a tent housing people with heavy equipment.”
Get back in the tent and we’ll try again.
"to hear the lamentations of these women"
The best part of the first video is the screaming of the "womyn".
“Protestors are alleging that the streets division nearly hit a tent housing people with heavy equipment.”
'Missed it by *that* much.'
Interesting that they did this right before the primaries. Clearly the governor thinks that whoever he supports will benefit from clearing this mess away, regardless of the militaristic imagery.
This is nothing more than state sanctioned violence. At least according to Francesca Hong.
The irony is delicious. Madison says to the protestors, "WE ARE ON YOUR SIDE!"
Then Madison lets the cops remove them. Delicious.

That's because you don't understand their cause. Their cause is to cause trouble. The don't give a shit about the dead dude.
Where’s General Reginald Dyer when you need him?
Their cause is to create and spread as much anarchy as possible. They know (deep down) they have no right to be where they are. It's just their preferred method of putting a thumb in our eye. The temper tantrum act works for a while, sometimes a long while, on blue city governments.
The heavy equipment should also be sent to the mansions containing the people funding this stuff.
The bloc party ends.
There is a tent with heavy equipment in it?
Democrats are all immature children with daddy issues.
and they vote for pro-crime dems - because - whaaaaa daddy!
Again - all of those radically immature leftwing cultists - ARE PISSED THAT THE COP WASN'T STABBED.
What a sewer.
DemoCRAZies
…nice shithole you’ve got there…
people with heavy equipment .....
Is what TSA check for!!!
Speaking of shit shows, served punk drunk, whatever happened to deporteesX deaming in Martha's Vineyard?
OK. Now they should get their day in court. Nobody gets a set time to break laws because of their feelings.
If this was MAGA, do you think the authorities would just forgive and forget like they do? If Portland or Seattle were overrun by MAGA, would it still be going on?
> get out of the way of the heavy equipment.
> How hard is that?
Dunno; ask Rachel Corey.
Portland defunded the police 6 years ago.
Portland is miles ahead in leftist antifa department of destruction.
the corrupt left are jealous.
Did all of the campers pay their second home tax?
I prefer the video of the Unidentified Floating Object.
I forgot. Where is this and which cause?
The "takeover" of Madison ends with a whimper.
Since I live in Florida, I'll just say, "Not my circus, not my monkeys." But it should never have been allowed to go on that long and inconvenience people. I know for damn sure that Ron DeSantis wouldn't put up with it for a day.
I mean, we even have doubleheader execution days in Florida. There would be no coddling of overgrown toddlers here.
Evers has a hardon for the hippie commie trash ehh?
@Clyde --
In the Florida summer they'd not have the energy or endurance to be "outside" toddlers without AC for more than an hour. They'd have adopted the tropical siesta and manana attitude and gone to the beach with a cold beer.
So - the "news" is that the Streets Division did not hit a tent occupied by people with heavy equipment.
No word on why the people in the tent had heavy equipment?
Isn't it hilarious that this mayor was berating the police last week, and now look who's assigned cleanup detail.
Rhodes-Conway was giving these arsonists, rioters, and domestic terrorists material support. Sounds pretty insurrectionist to me...
Where is groomer gadfly, pedoFredo, KKKak, and dInga all acreaming about the death of democracy?? Hello..?
“If this was MAGA, do you think the authorities would just forgive and forget like they do? ”
There would be a RICO case already being tried and it would include people states away that ever said a positive word about the protest.
They took the trash out.
It will be a perpetual take trash out-rinse-repeat cycle for the foreseeable future…

If you mean the Soylent Green prophesy, that would be “the scoops”.
"Protestors are alleging that the streets division nearly hit a tent housing people with heavy equipment"
Where's the normal grammar critique for ambiguity?
The abstract division nearly hit a tent housing "people with heavy equipment". Must have been a really big tent?
Listening to the shrieking harridans, all I could think of was the Conan quote, when asked "What is best in life?"
The cadence is not quite right, but if I were walking by when this was being cleaned up I'd be chanting "THIS IS WHAT CIVILIZATION LOOKS LIKE!"
There's a huge difference. It's widely recognized that Trump wanders away from questions to talk about the issues Trump wants to talk about. She wanders away from questions to avoid talking about the question, not to talk about issues.
"No word on why the people in the tent had heavy equipment?"
Dude! I wanna see the tent! That thing has got to be enormous!
"Protestors are alleging that the streets division nearly hit a tent housing people with heavy equipment..."
Well, the insurrectionist separatist communists/anarchists/idiots shouldn't have heavy machinery in their tents.
How the mighty have fallen, from Occupy Wall Street to Nearly Get Hit By Heavy Equipment. Makes me remember the days of "Rachel Corrie pancakes," those were the days!
