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.

There are a couple of threads posted already based on a blogpost regarding this incident. This article marks the first appearance of this story in the MSM, I believe.

To me the telling line is this:

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

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

It can’t have been an incident of racism, as apparently the people involved weren’t white.

In my neighborhood, the response to that might have been punctuated with 5.56mm and 7.62 of varying lengths.

Maybe Caterpillar will finally decide to leave the liberal Democrat hell hole known as Peoria. They have many plants in other states that can take on the production that is accomplished in Peoria.

If this incident had been whites in the South doing the same toward blacks, the uproar would be deafening.

Is this a new form of flash mob? The next set is they come into your home and clean everything out in 10 minutes then leave?

I would be buying arms and ammo as fast as possible, and connecting with my neighbors to see about possible coordinated defensive efforts. When the blacks went on a rampage in LA years ago, the Korean shopkeepers knew how to protect themselves and their own. Expect more of this in 0baMao’s America.

Public officials are frightened as they are aware of what might be coming. The only fear I have is that of white weakness. Perhaps whites have reached that level of “civilization” where they are willing to die in order to provide amusement for others.-See Spengler, Volume II

Until the LAPD disarmed them.

Its coming. When the day comes that the “entitlement” checks stop or get reduced, they will start coming for “what they deserve”.

What they don’t realize is that they will get EXACTLY what they deserve if they choose to rob someone other than liberals.

More like they’re willing to die because self-defense isn’t their job. They will be frantically dialing 911 when the barbarian’s are cutting them to pieces.

There are no Caterpillar plants in the city of Peoria. The corporate headquarters are located in the city. Plants are in the surrounding communities, but have been either shrinking or closing throughout the past three decades.

Peoria is not a "liberal Democrat hell hole". Political parties are not represented in the Peoria city government.

Was this the response of the public information officer, or just one of the cops who answered the phone? I know in my fire department we are not allowed to give statements, only a fire chief.

On the other threads, and likely to appear on this one, are people claiming they would not tolerate this in their neighborhood. Yet as far as I know there was no appropriately violent response from any of the whites being threatened. Why the disconnect?
