I recall all those artists arrested when they called a crucifix in a jar of urine art....NOT!

Huffington post quote: "This year, in honor of Christmas and the age old art world tradition of pissing people off..."

When they do it, it is tradition. When anyone else does it, it must be banned.

Selling Confederate and Nazi merchandise in Connecticut? Does Danel Malloy know about the guy?? He needs to be jailed... or at least have his income taxed at 1,000%.

Ooops, I better not give the MORONS in Connecticut any ideas..

Its not Nazi imagery that starts to make you a Nazi... its acting like a Nazi that starts to make you a Nazi

Its not the book “Mein Kampf” that starts to make a Nazi ...its burning the book “Mein Kampf” that starts to make a Nazi....

it's just one of those paradoxes of life

“There was a table set up with this material,” Wright says, according to Journal-Record. “It’s not criminally illegal, but obviously it offended this person. It causes some people a sense of being uncomfortable. Certainly the owner could preclude this merchandise.”

The fact that this weenie was not PROMPTLY ARRESTED FOR MISUSING AN EMERGENCY NUMBER is very indicative that our nation is quite through.

[Weenie] says the seller told [weenie] “he was selling so much he can’t keep it in stock."

Wait.

Now this story pleases me.

Greatly.

AAAAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAH

That's why the shopper went to the FLEA MARKET, to buy a used brain -- from a flea!!

Flea Markets here are strange... There are a few in Tampa. One of them has a DENTIST OFFICE. I'm not sure about you, but I wouldn't get my teeth cleaned in a FLEA MARKET...

Where is the Redwood? Is it near the Yankee Silversmith Restaurant??

Where is the Redwood? Is it near the Yankee Silversmith Restaurant??

The Yankee Silversmith burned down and is now a Sonic Restaurant.

Redwood is on the Hartford Turnpike (Route 150, NOT the Center Street part), and is about a mile off of one of the Wilbercross Parkway exits (Route 15). It is also near the Oakdale Theatre.

If you don’t like Confederate Flags, then I’d advise them against going to Flea Markets.

This is obviously some attention whore, someone trolling for a lawsuit, or both.

So much of our country have become similar to the Islamic fanatics or Nazis. They want to destroy symbols and even the people that contradict their beliefs.

If this man was actually having that kind of meltdown, he is completely insane.

Why wasn’t the whining pussy arrested for placing a false emergency call to 911?

Fascism: some thoughts....

1922, originally used in English 1920 in its Italian form (see fascist). Applied to similar groups in Germany from 1923; applied to everyone since the rise of the Internet.

A form of political behavior marked by obsessive preoccupation with community decline, humiliation or victimhood and by compensatory cults of unity, energy and purity, in which a mass-based party of committed nationalist militants, working in uneasy but effective collaboration with traditional elites, abandons democratic liberties and pursues with redemptive violence and without ethical or legal restraints goals of internal cleansing and external expansion.

"George Patton would have slapped the hell out of this guy.

General Patton wouldn't know America as it exists today. The 'Progressives' have been hard at work in every meaningful place where they can....

“”The caller complained that the Confederate items were “not authentic” and were replicas of flags and weapons.””

The caller was offended and then complained that the items were only replicas - not the real thing????
