Andy....I'm convinced these 'outrageous' statements and/or actions taken by the government and their followers are a deliberately timed probe...akin to testing the vulnerability of their target.
This comes on the very heels of the FCC monitoring newsrooms...which they've put aside for the moment....at least publicly.
If we step back just a little, we can see there is a full blown Nazi-like takeover going on right now. And they're well beyond 2nd gear....
What do they have to fear? The mainstream media fully supports them already. With 2014 coming, they're redlining....while grinning insanely.
I agree that there is both deliberation and concert inherent in many of the Left's provocations these days.
Which is to say that I believe they are intentionally pushing and prodding those they consider their enemies (i.e. - non-Progressives) to respond - violently, they hope - so that the State may come down upon such apostates with all of the delicious force that Leftists now openly crave.
And yet, spoiled little rich twits like this girl have long envisioned themselves as the Vanguard of the Revolution. I remember them well from the 60s and 70s - children of privilege cavorting with Black Panthers; romanticizing thuggery because reason demands self-evaluation, when Utopia simply will not wait.
