Maxine Waters and the LA/Rodney King Riots...

Maxine Waters on the Los Angeles riots of 1992 (Rodney King riots):
"[Maxine] Waters has been criticized for her comments regarding the Los Angeles riots of 1992. In defense of the people that looted stores and damaged property, Waters said 'If you call it a riot it sounds like it was just a bunch of crazy people who went out and did bad things for no reason. I maintain it was somewhat understandable, if not acceptable. So I call it a rebellion.'[5] She also said it was 'a spontaneous reaction to a lot of injustice' and 'The anger in my district is righteous. I'm just as angry as they are.' She responded to the mass looting of Korean-owned stores by saying: 'There were mothers who took this as an opportunity to take some milk, to take some bread, to take some shoes. They are not crooks. Everybody in the street was not a thug or a hood.'"

From David Horowitz's FrontpageMag.com /DiscoverTheNetworks.org:
"Throughout its history, one of RCP's [Revolutionary Communist Party's] principal objectives has been to foment civil unrest in the United States. The most notable example of such efforts occurred on April 29, 1992, when RCP members looted and trashed the downtown and government districts of Los Angeles, triggering the infamous Rodney King riots. During the days immediately preceding the violence, RCP -- which maintained close ties to the L.A. gangs known as the Crips and the Bloods -- had circulated throughout South Central Los Angeles a leaflet featuring a statement by RCP National Spokesman Carl Dix, titled 'It's Right To Rebel' -- a quote popularized by Mao Zedong.

Encouraged by Dix, RCP activists helped lead the riots that would leave 58 people dead, more than 2,300 people injured, some 5,300 buildings burned, and $1 billion in property damaged or destroyed. On the ten-year anniversary of the rioting, RCP member Joseph Veale fondly recalled the violence as 'the most beautiful, the most heroic civil action in the history of the United States.'"

_________________________________________________________

"The RCP [Revolutionary Communist Party] upheld the 1992 sometimes-violent unrest in Los Angeles and nationally as a 'rebellion' in the aftermath of the Rodney King verdicts. Then-LAPD chief Daryl Gates alleged that the RCP was involved in the 'riots'. Los Angeles has long been one of the RCP's larger and more active branches. William 'Mobile' Shaw was a local leader who recently passed and received public commendation from the party."

Oh, well, Joy, my God! I had NO idea that’s what teabagger meant! I guess that applies to MY party much more than the Tea Party! I’ll have to talk to Barney about this!

I think the left calls Tea Party members “teabaggers” because they are obsessed that male’s on our side have balls.

“What are we looking at here, the beans or the frank?”

Do they really think that the tea partiers will not remember this in November? Her seat may be safe but many of her colleagues’ seats aren’t.

I’ll bet King George had some choice names for our founding fathers and patriots who said No to his tyranny too.

Waters said. “This is a moment in history that will be remembered for a long time.”

To paraphrase: The day before yesterday, March 21, 2010—a date which will live in infamy—the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by House and Senate forces of the Empire of Democrats.

And as for her "teabagger" comment, I understand that is primarily a homosexual activity hus she is using a derogatory comment about gays to insult her political opponents. Where are the gay activists to protest her? I know they would have their [underwear of either gender] in a bunch if we started calling what was passed Obamaqueer.

1) Name-calling only works on idiots.

2) Maxine Waters is not exactly a towering paragon of intelligence. She may be an elected official, but that just means there are a lot of stupid people in her district.

3) This isn't over, and in fact it's barely begun.

She is a pig in more ways than one but it is easy to see how she gets reelected. Just listen to her constituents.

Barney Frank immediately issued a statement expressing his outrage, right?

Maxine is a double-bagger.

40 bags would not be enough for me.

Her constituents have to be even more stupid than she is. Which is why they need all the govt help they can get.

How stupid can they be? We are paying. They are taking. They are cashing the checks we worked for.

Check the title of the new movie coming out: Takers..... sez it all.
