..... you're claiming that an article from March 2012 was a reaction to events in July 2013?

Leaving aside that of the other four articles, the two from real sources describe protests that damaged property and not mass attacks, and the two that are not real sources are *not real*.

So you have cited five articles, two of which do not describe what you say they do, two of which are from sources less credible and with a worse track record than the Weekly World News, and one that would require time travel to be relevant.

Well done.

From:

I did a 10 second google search. Sorry if I don't have time to sift through articles that you could easily google. Although you would never do that.

So, you make a wild (and blatantly false) assertion, when asked for citations you provide a bunch of links that don't have anything to do with what you claimed and don't support your point despite you claiming they do, and when it's pointed out that's somehow *my* problem?

Come on, you can't even produce *your own* source? The one *you* got it from? I mean, it couldn't possibly be that you're just lying, just making things up about people you don't like. I mean, people wouldn't do that, on the internet, and not expect to get caught, would they?

Dude, it was the exact same issue I pointed out with the sources you gave me yesterday.
If you can't bring good sources to the table, don't complain about being brought to task for it. Other people are less kind about it than I am.

From:

As already stated, most of these are not credible. But any violence in reaction to the verdict is unacceptable and those committing these acts should be held accountable.

What that has with Zimmerman having to move or his brother keeping his racist mouth shut is a mystery to me. I'd say any inconvenience that Zimmerman faces is pretty small compared to the inconvenience suffered by Martin and his family.

Right. Anything that doesn't agree with your narrative is not credible. Your claims of racism are ridiculous. You seem incapable of arguing on logic, only on emotion. Your selective compassion is baffling. I'm done wasting my time. If you want to see morons protesting violence by hitting people with hammers and beating them up, google is readily available although you don't seem to concerned with any of that.

From:

What part of "any violence in reaction to the verdict is unacceptable and those committing these acts
should be held accountable" do you not understand?

Racism - his brother's statements are racist. I stand by that.

As for me being the emotional one, projection much?

wow you came straight from the Hannity forums didn't you?

Do some more, I think my bingo card is almost full.

(you forgot "you're the real racist" and "typical libtard: cares only about those he can look down on, so elitest")

"I can't be bothered to produce a single credible source to back up my claims so I'm going to stick my fingers in my ears and say 'na na na na na na' instead. Doo doo head."

2012? Flail harder dude!

From:

Way to address the issue.

From:

Hey, I would have been happy to have let your retort stand, but 2012? You are going off half cocked. I mean, why?

From:

The protesters are idiots. They are costing their cause a lot of respect.

Zimmerman however, needs to STFU whining about vigilantes. What did he expect when he became one himself? Heck, even the bible mentions if you take up the sword you will die by the sword.

From:

I'm a bay area native. Those are the "professional anarchists". Most are white too. Oakland is like a preserve for anarchists. The come out for everything. Antiwar, anti-racism, Oscar Grant, OWS, MayDay. It doesn't matter. Smash Wells Fargo is always the answer.

From:

Any idea why there are a large concentration of them there?

From:

Maybe the punk music scene? A long history of cointelpro?

This is the bay area, we have, uh, different standards.

we had em in Philly too. I lived in what was formerly known as "the Anarchy House" because it housed the core group who ran the Woodenshoe bookstore and published the local zine. Dang what was the name of that zine? oh wow.... this is gonna keep me up all night now

There is also a (smaller but still existing) issue with anarchists showing up at peaceful rallies and protests in Los Angeles area. I have a friend that works security there and regularly sees idiots that have nothing to do with the protest trying to get black marks against any nonviolent groups. Its a common theme with anarchists to spread their crap around and try to make things worse for everyone else.

I'm guessing there are more in Oakland/bay area due to greater concentration of peaceful protestors? Sorta the anti-hippies.

Isn't "professional anarchist" a term for an undercover cop shitstirring a crowd?
