Such is the state of education here in the beautiful city of Tucson.

As a side note, one can catch a quick glimpse of a dark haired woman shouting at the security officer right about the 1:32 mark of the video. That woman is Isabel Garcia who, aside from being a leading member of Coalicion de Derechos Humanos, is also a Pima County public defender. Anybody want to take a guess at where these fine young youths are getting their instruction?

Once these morons have “chained themselves to chairs” LEOs should lock them in, form a perimeter and fill the place with teargas.... while loudly blasting the audio of old Lawrence Welk reruns.

I was a long time Tucson resident employed with the federal government (20+ years) and in my early days had frequent contact with Isabel Garcia when she was defending illegal alien detainees in federal custody. She was a POS then as she is now. She is a known communist anti-American radical.
