PEORIA —

Sixty or more young people fought and yelled racist comments at residents as they walked down Thrush Avenue toward Sheridan Road on Friday night, according to eyewitness accounts.

“They were yelling ‘We’re gonna kill all the white people, this is our neighborhood,’” said Paul Wilkinson, 45, a resident who has lived in the neighborhood for 11 years and witnessed the incident about 11 p.m. He relayed the information over the weekend to police, city council members and at least one local blogger.

It wasn't reported in the New York Times so it never happened./sarc

They are trying to intimidate the whites into voting for Barry, IMHO!

Just a gentle reminder of what could happen if :1. Barry is impeached 2. if Barry loses the election 3. If Barry is kicked out of office for not being a citizen

Folks, this is just the beginning. Remember what Carville said a month or so ago about people taking to the streets? He wasn’t talking about white people taking to the streets.

More likely various flavors of 12 gauge, in my neck of the woods. I keep a Mossberg 500 loaded with buck and ball, I call it “The Goblinwhacker”.

If I lived in Peoria I would be wondering why my paid public safety officials were deliberately withholding important information from the public.

No, probably not. But others who are less well-informed might.

Such is the power of the Net: to shine light on events shrouded in officially-sanctioned darkness.

Think you are right, Whites are not motivated to resist, whereas today the barbarians of are motivated to attack.

As Eric Hoffer once said:

“It is a perplexing and unpleasant truth that when men already have “something worth fighting for,” they do not feel like fighting.”

Not to dispute for the sake of disputing, but to me self defense of ones self and family is one’s job. Indeed, the use of deadly force to protect one’s family is a DUTY!

I disagree - a lot of libs are like wolves in sheep's clothing. I'm thinking in particular of the white guy in the Prius who cut me off the other day (driving down the wrong side of the road because of a car that was attempting to parallel park). Think people like Rahm Emanuel, etc. They are the epitome of condescending liberal thought, but when it comes to something they want - ruthless.

What are the politics of the majority of voters in Peoria? Isn’t it Democrat?

coordinated defensive actions...

Calling all veterans, we need your help. We need people with military experience to do some local “community organizing” of our own.

Peoria police Sunday confirmed there was an incident Friday night but said they were instructed not to comment on it.

Instructed by whom? Holder?

Make no mistake, this kind of zhit is gonna cost Barry the election....

It IS being noticed by many heartbelt of American citizens. It is not amusing to anyone except perhaps the perps and liberals who think whites and businesses "deserve it." Eric Holder has their backs and it's the one topic Obama won't be giving any speeches on.

Of course, this was not a racial incident.

One out of every 19 American citizens collects disability.

My guess - some cities like Detroit are in the one in three range.

The problem is that when the same “old same old dependents” bankrupt the system, they can get jobs ( many work under the table now), but those who are REALLY disabled will just die - or be thrown on the mercy of family - if they have family.

A 90 year old man who counts on Social Security that he spent a lifetime paying into - can’t go out and get a job. Those people - the truly disabled and elderly will be destroyed by the gang bangers, drug addicts, “HIV positive (more like a cold now-a-days)” folks who scam the system...

Drive through a bad neighborhood and you’ll see the signs ‘ WILL FIGHT FOR YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY RIGHTS... The lawyers take a cut of the winnings - and the winnings are big - free money for 50 to 60 years...

It takes about 15 mins. for police to answer a 911 call and get to the bad guys, a 1911 gets to them at 850 ft. per fec.

It's the home of Ray LaHood, current Secretary of Transportation.
