    Or possibly the caravan of flag supporters just happened on the birthday party in their normal course of driving and acted accordingly (which seems to be what occurred).

    No, you all can pollute it all you like. But Max and achillies are supporting the US system, not trying to change it. They lament when things go against our constitution. They take umbrage when the rule of law here isn't followed.

    You, not so much. Quite the opposite. You want to change the country to be more like Canada or some utopia with unicorns and rainbows. Start with your own country.

  4. So you think they were driving around and saw a group of blacks so just naturally thought they would harrass and threaten them? Seriously, how likely is that? Like I said, that was the inference the article was trying to give but without any supporting facts. The police were there and did nothing.

    I don't think they decided, preemptively, to do it. I think the two groups crossed, and dumb people ended up ruling the day.

    If the story is near accuracy, then the white guys were a bunch of idiots, who should be arrested for making a terroristic threat.

    When it comes to "harassment" and/or "racism"; that's a whole nother story.
    Usually, there's more than one side to every situation.

    So, I pretty much go with this, except in the case of a terroistic threat:

    CONGRESS SHALL MAKE NO LAW...ABRIDGING THE FREEDOM OF SPEECH.
