*RUSH COPY*

And so the scene of the LAPD protecting 25 Nazis from an outraged crowd of hundreds played out in front of Los Angeles City Hall this Saturday afternoon. Several hundred police in full tactical riot gear were deployed to the scene complete with their full arsenal of so called less lethal weapons. Weapons pointed not at the Nazis but at the citizens of Los Angeles outraged at the staging of a Nazi rally at their city hall.

There are conflicting reports of at least two incidents where suspected Nazis were beaten by some members of the counter demonstration. There are reports of the beating of a shirtless man displaying swastika tattoos. And another incident where police intervened to extract a second man from the crowd it is unclear if the second man was indeed a part of the Nazi group.

Both men are believed to have escaped with minor injuries. There are also reports of some injuries sustained by counter protesters incurred from police blows during the LAPD intervention to extract the two men.

Uploaded is a cell phone photo sent from the scene. More details to follow.

Apparently two people were beaten, at least . One of them was a crazy who wasn't part of the "Save Our State" / "Minutemen" / "National Vanguard" et al. usual collection of known Republican Nazis, but the other neo-Nazi was.

I had thought that these scumbag piles of dog shit were going to return to Baldwin Park after we shouted them down three times but they never returned. Instead they showed up on Los Angeles. What fucking stupid rightards!

Great seeing the citizens of our country standing up to these unamerican piles og shit.

Was Sarah Palin or any of the usual tea bagging idiots present? Did any of them speak to the crowd and try to egg on these white supremacists?

The usual tea bagger is someone like Frederic L. Rice, who has David MisCavige's nutsac bouncing on his chin.

The tea party movement started out as 9-11 truth and limited federal power before the right commandeered the movement; turning it from a protest about over reaching federal encroachment into are Bill of Rights, into another echo box of right wing talking points having nothing to do with resisting and protesting the full spectrum assault upon our society by a government controlled by the banking houses of Wall Street and their unquenchable greed.

The banking bailout

gun point health insurance that actually disassembles the fragile existing heath care to replace it with bottom line, minimal coverage, at the whim of the for profit corporations.

And their share holders.

And of course, the shredding of our treasury in these wars of resource control as we are gouged to pay for these controlled resources.

people are pissed and labeling them as anything but angry at the loss of representation from a bought and paid for gaggle of political whores.
