See a Woman Give a Rousing Speech While Standing Up to U.K. Rioters

In June, we brought you video of two tiny women standing up to rioters in Vancouver, British Columbia after rowdy fans ransacked the city following the city’s loss in the NHL finals. That was courage. So is what you’re about to see.
A video posted on YouTube this week shows a “brave Hackney woman” standing up to the rioters around her and giving a rousing speech. She berates those around her for the violence, especially since it’s not for a cause (the U.K. riots started over the police-involved shooting of a man in the city of Tottenham).
“This is about a fu**ing man who got shot in Tottenham,” she screams, “this ain‘t about having fun on the road and bustin’ up the place. … Do it for a cause! If you’re fighting for a cause then fight for a fu**ing cause!”
You can watch her speech below (CONTENT WARNING for language):
By the way, we recognize that the person in the video doesn’t look or sound the most woman-like, but we’ll go with the video description.

Posted on August 10, 2011 at 8:37amI believe that there is a very good chance that this will be happening here in the near future. We already have the flash mobs, the racist attacks at Wisconsin State Fair, and we had a similar event take place in Peoria, Illinois. I think that we should all be worried and should prepare ourselves.

Posted on August 10, 2011 at 9:13amThe conditions that cause this type of violence already exist here. The constant race-baiting by liberals, black churches, and by the media ( MSNBC in particular, which calls anyone who opposes the president and/or his policies a “racist” ) coupled with a sense of entitlement is bound to create a perfect storm of stupidity, bigotry, and violence, which is the hallmark of the mob mentality. Add the weak white male and liberal white guilt to the mix and you’ve got the recipe for London 2.0

They should be worried, because unlike the Brits who surrendered their freedoms years ago with gun control laws, when these animals venture out of their inner cities into our neighborhoods here in the US and try to riot its over for them right then and there. If Brits were armed like us these riots would already be over.

Posted on August 10, 2011 at 10:01amB.O. and the Left in this country want this to come to the U.S. so they have an excuse to crack down on their political opponents (e.g. Conservatives, Tea Party, Christians, etc.) Remember Rham Emanuel (B.O. operative) said, “Never let a crisis go to waste to do things you otherwise wouldn’t be able to do.”
Report Post »Remember B.O. said they should create a “Civilian Security Force” with funding and authority equal to our military to enforce security here in the homeland. Can you remember how the SA (thug org) was established and used by the Fascists in the 1930s to crack down and eliminate their opponents?

You can tell the Lefties don’t know their history. The SA was used as muscle and later discarded when they began challenging the bosses. The Sturmauptailung (SA) became uppity for doing all the dirty work the SS would not do, they then were eliminated in the Night of Long Knives and the survivors were folded into what would become the Nazi party we all know and hated. Present-day libbies are every bit as cold as the fascist hacks of the 30s, so this is a very real possible repeat.

Posted on August 12, 2011 at 12:57amThis is a lower class entitlement RIOT, not a “black riot”, much as some seem to find it easier to believe. In the inner cities, many of these lower class thugs will be black, others – white or Latino (pick an ethnicity). The common thread is they all have been raised to believe the successful are the enemy and they are victims. They never earned anything in their lives, never needed a work ethic. They were raised with “tries hard” on their report card, medals just for competing, prizes for 9th place and accolades mere competence. They were convinced they could celebrate their individuality and still be mindful of their insignificance compared to the good of society. They have been diminished, rendered impotent. Their one empowerment – RIOT, REVOLUTION. In our larger cities where black and Hispanic minorities comprise much of the “lower class”, racial bating has further stirred the pot. Now, well meaning “useful idiots” can side with these thugs as victims of racism and economic oppression; witness the plethora of wealthy apologists and liberal elite weighing in on the struggle.

She is NOT saying stop the riots and looting but INSTEAD saying that rioting/looting would be a good thing IF they were fighting for their SOCIALIST spread the wealth cause (and not rioting for rioters to steal alone) and saying to loot/smash/grab/destroy/burn ONLY banks and rich shops like Herrods (and not loot small struggling shops)
If it were Herrods and “rich” shops getting looted, I have a feeling this woman would be cheering the rioters on if not actively looting herself.

Oh – and by the way, I have at least 2 years of food and you can bet that I will NOT be sharing any of it with anyone who is a liberal.

If she did NOT like the riots, she would have SAID DO NOT RIOT. She did NOT say that. She said to stop rioting because you are not rioting for a CAUSE.
She also said STOP LOOTING the the struggling stores in what is probably her neighborhood. She NEVER SAID STOP LOOTING ALL the stores.

Do you know what an independent record label is? These kids that run these labels are not rich. The people they make music available to are some of the same people rioting and listening to that same music in their iPods as they riot. Seems like a big Cluster fk to me. Take a look at your music collection and see if there are any artist on independent labels such as 4AD, Sub Pop, Domino, Warp and XL. The people whose music you love just got screwed by a bunch of greedy punks.
“More than 150 independent record labels were dealt a huge blow on Monday night, when a facility owned by Sony Digital Audio Disc Corporation was destroyed in a fire that resulted from the riots that have torn through England in the past three days.”
