I agree the libs are the first, and the most, at using the violence card.

Small riot breaks out after Tea Partiers attack man of color

By Rusty

No, they didn’t.

Actually, the headline reads, Small Riot Breaks Out at Immigration Protest.

The protest was directed towards the signing of SB1070, in Arizona. The controversial Arizona bill clamps down on illegal “immigration” by requiring local police officers to question people about their immigration status if they suspect the person is in this country illegally. Illegal “immigration” advocates fear such a law will result in racial profiling. From the article,

Witnesses say a group protesting against SB1070 began to fight with a man who was for the controversial immigration bill.

Police tried escorting that man away from the scene, fearing for his safety, when they too came under attack by people throwing items, including water bottles.

It appears that the first racial profiling to occur, upon the bill’s signing into law, would be on the part of the protester who, yelling at the man police escorted from the scene, shouted, “F*** you! F***ing racist!” (see video here).

70% of the Arizona population supports the Arizona bill.

Non-Hispanic whites are only 59.6% of the population in the state. Its doubtful that 100% of that 59.6% supports the bill. Accordingly, there must be non-Anglo support for it as well.

How to Define Polarizing [Rich Lowry]

Over at PowerLine, John Hinderaker makes a great catch: CNN describes the Arizona immigration law as "polarizing." John asks why the health-care bill was never described that way, even though it too brought protestors into the streets and was actually, in contrast to the Arizona bill, opposed by most people? To ask the question is to answer it.

Meanwhile, just imagine if tea partiers had ever chased a counter-demonstrator down, throwing water bottles at him as the police escorted him away for his own safety, as happened in Arizona the other day.
