‘It Was Gruesome’: Waiter Pummeled in the Face (Trayvon Protest Oakland - trunc title)
The Blaze ^ | 7/16/2013 | Jonathon M. Seidl

“It was gruesome.”

That’s how one witness described what happened in Oakland on Monday night when pro-Trayvon Martin protesters attacked a local restaurant. The “gruesome” description is specifically referring to the part where a waiter at that restaurant stood up to one of the protesters and was pummeled in the face with a hammer-like object because of it.

“Protesters with black masks approached the window and tried to bang at it,” bartender Phillip Ricafort told the Oakland Tribune. “(The waiter) said, ‘Don’t do that!’ and the guy turned around and smacked him in the face with a hammer.”

As Americans, all of America is ours. Maybe then, by that line of thought, he should have just moved out of the country entirely?

Historically Marxist (or theft based) utopias only collapse and die when the producers either leave, quit or die.

And what did the waiter have to do with Trayvon’s death? Kudos to the instigators who are provoking these punks.

Just another ASSAULT that goes unprosecuted. Leading to more Zimmermans.

A bit after the riots, it turns out that Reginal Denney ended up recuperating at his brother's home just around the corner from where we lived at the time..........he'd just bought a big dually settlement truck with vanity plates that read: I B A RIOT

He'd walk around the yard, with as Ms. Jeantel might put it, a "that's retarded, sir" grin about him.

Is America a Marxist utopia? I thought it was a free republic.

You are welcome to test your thinking.

Just Zimmerman a Negro thug in Oakland, San Francisco, Chicago, New York, .... they are easy to find, just walk down the sidewalk.

Let me know how it worked out.

Save your snark. And, likewise, let me know how giving up territory when things don’t go our way works out.
