A ruckcus occurred over the weekend at a screening of Farenheit 9\/11<\/em><\/a>. Is anyone surprised?<\/p>\n

But the horror kept on growing for Streeter as he walked to his car on the phone with police, “This guy turns, and totally by surprise takes his hand and bam! It was a big guy. Shoved me onto the ground, I hit my head.” A police report has been filed.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This is why the Right keeps winning elections, people. If the left keeps looking like a bunch of chaotic hooligans who will readily kick the ass of anyone who not even disagrees<\/em>, but is simply ambivalent to their views, then I find it hard even for me to show up at the polls this coming election day to vote for anyone.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Now, if anyone plans on coming over to smack me<\/em> to the ground, post a comment and let me know beforehand. So’s I can be ready ‘n all. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

FWIW, I have been in contact with moveon.org’s PR point person after I informed them that I was writing this up (see what having a crummy website will get you?). Per Moveon.org:<\/p>\n

If you read the story or follow up with the reporter you will find that the accused IS NOT a MoveOn member.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So, just a fanatic that took things a little too far, according to the MoveOn pac. Though honestly, nowhere in the story does it say<\/a> that the “accused” isn’t a moveon.org member, unless I’m missing something. <\/p>\n

If you’re an activist, keep your cool, and don’t let this happen to you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
