Here’s a good video that Ari posted on Facebook.

Blogging might be a bit light today, I have been working all weekend on JQuery and JSON stuff for work…
You’re not going to hear this reported in the news, because it doesn’t fit the narrative.
Here’s the scoop from Verum Serum. Where else?
Video of a progressive atheist engaging in some secular humanism.
John of Verum Serum writes: (with links)
Did he have “caps” and not real bullets as someone in the video claims? According to the AP, Duke killed himself with his own gun. So it appears the bullets were real and the people on the board were very lucky (or very blessed) to avoid being killed.
We know the media loves stories about right-wing violence, but it’s going to be hard to spin Clay Duke into a Tea Party terrorist. His Facebook page contains a kind of suicide note which references the movie V for Vendetta (a film in which the “hero” blows up Parliament). His religion is listed as “humanist” which means he was an atheist. He also quotes part of Shelley’s poem Masque of Anarchy, not a Tea Party favorite. (click for full size)
Also interesting is the list of favorite websites he provides, including Media Matters and The Progressive Mind along with about a dozen others.
Read the rest of the post to see how the media makes much of some stories where conservatives can be smeared, but how it covers up stories like this one. And it also covers up stories where the victims are conservatives. You’ve probably never heard of Kenneth Gladney.
This reminds me of the last radical leftist environmentalist who shot up the Discovery Channel building. He was inspired by Democrat environmentalist Al Gore. The gunman loved evolution. And he didn’t like “greed” or “religion” either.
The gunman doesn’t like the rich
The gunman’s Facebook page screen shot says this: “I was born in a country where the Wealthy manipulate, use, abuse and economically enslave 95% of the population… Our Masters, the Wealthy, do as they like to us.”
The wealthy? That sounds a lot like “the rich”, doesn’t it?
And who do we know who rants against “the rich”?
Barack Obama doesn’t like the rich
Here he is talking about taxing the rich.
Here is Barack Obama calling in Democrats to “argue with them and get in their face.“.
Not to mention asking Latinos to come out and “punish our enemies“.
Could Obama have incited this gunman to violence with his hate speech?
Excerpt:
Thugs who hijacked the tuition fees protest narrowly avoided seriously injuring or even killing police when they threw a fire extinguisher off the seventh floor roof of the Tory HQ, it emerged today.
The dramatic moment was captured on video footage, showing the extinguisher crashing to the ground just inches from a group of officers desperately battling to regain control in Millbank.
A youth was seen on pictures clutching the missile on top of the building and the film showed it being launched over the edge and falling at speed.
It glanced off the helmet of one territorial support group officer and grazes the knees of another. Had it properly hit any of the thousands of people below, it would almost certainly have left fatal injuries.
[…]Militants from far-Left groups whipped up a mix of middle-class students and younger college and school pupils into a frenzy, setting off the most violent student unrest Britain has seen in decades.
The focus of the violence was Tory HQ in Central London, where hundreds of thousands of pounds of damage was caused.
The glass frontage was smashed and protesters swarmed seven floors up to the roof, from where a fire extinguisher was hurled down at police below.
Effigies of David Cameron and Nick Clegg were burned to cheers from the roaring mob. At least 14 casualties were taken to hospital, seven of them police officers, and 51 demonstrators were arrested.
Notice that the signs in the pictures have logos from socialist organizations on them. These are violent left-wing thugs and they nearly killed police officers. And why? To protest against anyone who would cut the flow of taxpayer money that subsidizes their work-free lifestyle.
