Not a Peep From the Dems on G20 Violence

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi berated town hall and tea party protesters this month, tearfully warning they’d incite violence. Well, there’s been violence all right, at Pittsburgh’s G-20. But it wasn’t the tea partiers.

It takes gall to characterize ordinary Americans, freely exercising their rights of speech and assembly in civic forums, as “mobs” while ignoring a pack of leftist thugs now smashing a U.S. city. But that’s what Pelosi did, directing her righteous tocsin to the Norman Rockwell-like gatherings of Americans who opposed her expansion of government this past summer.

……Scroll ahead one week to the G-20 summit in Pittsburgh: Some 1,000 hooded rioters descend on the city waving signs such as “Smash the G-20” and “Eat the Rich.” Many take “direct action” to “challenge capitalism” in what organizers brazenly call an “unpermitted protest.”

Unlike the town hall citizens, they didn’t “hurl” statements — just tire irons, bricks and rocks, in an effort to damage private businesses.

“Sometimes you just got to say f— it and get down,” read a Web statement by the organizers “Pittsburgh G-20 Resistance Project,” making no secret of their intent to wreak mayhem.

“Despite the use of rubber bullets, chemical weapons, and LRAD (noise) attacks, demonstrators remained on the streets for hours and actions continue across the city,” the group’s press release read.

By that they meant attacks on 13 pre-picked Starbucks stores, a Whole Foods, an American Apparel, a Trader Joe’s, U.S. military recruiting stations, check-cashing outlets, 13 PNC bank outlets and other institutions, all conveniently listed as possibilities on a Google map. Many of these places saw smashed windows and graffiti attacks after they turned up on the blacklist.

This kind of violence is nothing new. It was found in Seattle in 1999, where former Obama administration green czar Van Jones got himself arrested. It was repeated at other summits in Turin, Italy; Washington, D.C.; and London. These leftists detest capitalism, abhor private property — and have ties to the Democratic Party.

This is just standard operating procedure and tacit approval from the Democratic party.
The same blowhards who accused patriotic, over taxed Americans of “carrying swastikas” and “inciting violence”, clam up when leftwingnut anarchists take to the streets and commit real violence.

Note to Democrats: Your hypocrisy is showing. Again.
