Nobody got arrested. No stores were looted. No police cars were torched. They had all the proper permits.
No wonder the media ignored them.
‘All Lives Matter’ march draws more than 20,000 to Birmingham
Led by conservative activist and talk show host Glenn Beck, more than 20,000 people chanting “All Lives Matter” marched the historic civil rights route from Kelly Ingram Park to Birmingham City Hall this morning.
“It’s about taking our church out in the streets,” Beck said. He said marchers came from as far away as China, Dubai and the Netherlands.
Actor Chuck Norris, a conservative activist known for his martial arts, action movies and TV show “Walker, Texas Ranger,” marched about two rows behind Beck. Alveda King, a niece of civil rights activist the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., marched in the front row. Bishop Jim Lowe, pastor of the predominantly black Guiding Light Church in Birmingham, co-organized the march with Beck and marched with him at the front. As a child, Lowe attended Sixteenth Street Baptist Church, where the march started, a headquarters church for the civil rights movement in Birmingham. Lowe and his sisters were in the church when a KKK bomb blew up the church and killed four little girls on Sept. 15, 1963.
“Love is the answer,” Lowe said as he marched. “God is the answer.”
Some Birmingham police officers said the crowd could have been as large as 25,000 to 30,000. It may have been the largest march in Birmingham since the civil rights marches of 1963.
Hmmmm. Deep South. White people and black people marching together in solidarity to affirm that all lives matter.
Who cares about that?

I don’t have lots of time today, and that was the largest waste of time ever.
I’m so angry I checked on that link – how do I get my 3 minutes back?
LOL. Watermelon. Raycist.
LOL. Cole. Teh Stoopid.
John is just sad. Sad sad sad. One of my Airbnb guests who is black left me a public review that said, ” Staying with Toni is like staying with your Aunt”. Take that all you (John Cole’s) who suffer from acute exacerbation of white guilt and project it onto your political opponents along with your condescension ; and feel justified calling them racist. John is such a classic textbook case.
I finally read the link and am convinced more than ever that Team TCH could beat Team Buffoon in the Physics Bowl Championship 😉 (yes, that was a TBBT reference)
That’s just amazing! I didn’t hear anything about that march. Well, it is still early. Maybe someone will cover it on one of the morning shows. Thanks for posting.
Maybe John Cole will be racially sensitive enough to imagine it.
It’s later in the day now. I’ve been away for hours today. Have you heard anything about the march in Birmingham yet? I hadn’t hear anything on the radio while in the car. I was wondering if you had.
Confiscation of historical artifacts? Changing our history? I have an idea! When they write the new history books, why not just remove any reference to slavery. Poof! It never happened. No issue!

And now this – Without any approval from congress, Barack Hussein Obama is taking it upon himself to rename the largest mountain in North America, cleansing it of its American identity.
Wow! The news has me in a bad mood this morning. I think I better take a tea break.

Absurd. No sane person could rationalize this noise. I thoight people were over reacting about the EPA rules. Guess I was wrong. Read a standing puddle can get you in trouble in your yatd.

Look at Drudge. “The High One”. dear lord.
I’m still upset they changed Cape Kennedy back to Cape Canaveral. Kennedy inspired a whole generation that got us to the moon !
Renaming a mountain is just the squirrel Obama media trying to keep our heads from overthinking that travelling over 7000 miles on the carbon belching AF1 and escorts and motorcades to talk about global warming isn’t really happening because MOUNTAIN !
Somewhere in Obama’s administration, is an aide with a list of things Presidents have never done, and Obama is checking them off, to add to his ” legacy”. I wish I could add a few things to that list, but one of my favorites, resigning , unfortunately has already been done.

Perfect avatar for his twitter !
Tweet test.
Now I see all the tweets. You’re welcome 😉
I do too, and I was not seeing Myiq’s before you did this. I just saw the text of tweets. I still see his widget link below his texts, thought.
I do think his widget is the culprit, though still amazed at my magical powers 🙂
I don’t put that widget there. It just appears.
Yeah, they all say that sorta thing…….
Klown, how do you post tweets – do you just paste the url link?
That’s so weird that the widget shows up.
Can I ask what browser you are using?

Nice work Denise.
I just saw on teevee that people are driving to the gas station and donating $ for the officer’s family. There is also a GoFundMe site for the slain Texas LEO. The last I heard (a few minutes ago) is ppl have donated over $70K at the gas station for his family.
The police community has many supportive organizations that takes care of it’s own. In the first press conference it was announced Deputy Gorforth’s 5 and 12 yr old children already had their college educations paid for.
I can’t wait to find out what the hell the motive was for the assassin.
The funeral is tentatively set for this Friday.
Our asshole media better televise it.
I bet Obama doesn’t show up.
Deputy Darren Goforth’s family.
The bastard unloaded his gun. Fifteen shell casings were found at the scene.
The reporter on tv just announced that during his arraignment, the shooter was charged with shooting Officer Goforth 15 times in the back of his head and in his back.
Hey Dora, it looks like that Warren filing is fake:
http://www.boston.com/news/politics/2015/08/27/tom-brady-sketch-and-elizabeth-ann-warren-file-run-for-president/bqxyAiyafEQQLaBVto6FrI/story.html
Thanks. The form looked real to me, but when I saw the same link this morning with Joe Biden’s name on the form, I started to become suspicious. They can only fool me once. 🙂
My first clue for fakey fake stuff is usually results of a simple internet search, in this case the twitter would have exploded too. 🙂
Lucky you Dora. 🙂
Think Warren would have helped hill by taking from Sanders.
I still see a Biden/Warren, which would be Obama’s wet dream ticket and a guarantee of his third term….and funneling money to his “foundation”. Com’on Dems, WAKE UP !
If Biden gets in, I think it will be partly because Warren will back him, and with that, an agreed VP deal. And if anyone says or even hints at one term, that means Warren as Pres. in 2020. I think Dems would go for that arrangement over Hillary. If Warren isn’t for that arrangement, I don’t think a Biden run will go anywhere, which means he probably wouldn’t run.
I agree that Dems will go for that ticket. And as Dandy says, biden won’t jump into the mix if he doesn’t have Warren’s backing.
When/ How/ Where did Warren become so powerful? She’s a fake not unlike bronco. Is it simply magical thinking that energizes the Dems now?
When you got no one, you dream……
Indian Princess and all?? 😆
Didn’t she claim to be the Mother of OWS, yet she’s a 1%er ? It’s like Obama running as the anti-war candidate because he gave a courageous speech to an anti-war crowd in Chicago that the Tribune couldn’t find a record of so BO’s team just wrote a new one for him ? That kind of fake? 😀
If you’re going to fake it it’s very important to be sincere.
Warren will be pretty long in the tooth by 2020. She is only two years younger than Hillary. I’m so tired of dinosaur candidates.
Can’t Trump this. Donald is appealling to the center. Middle class has been abondened. He excites a belief in America. The far left went too far. Serioisly who save freaks would not be upset by a university deciding him and her are oppressive terms. Crazy Bruce Jenner has to be called her but a real woman cannot be called her?
Have you heard that the words “silent majority” is now racist ? So waking up the “silent majority” means waking up whitey ? True story.

I’m watching Glen Beck on Blaze TV now and he is talking about that march. It was the largest march in Birmingham since the 1960s. There were 25,000 to 30,000 people there. Lots of pictures. No one else is covering it. At least that I can find.
I think communties are craving inspiration and love, Beck has a knack for tapping into that and it’s made him very wealthy. I was at this rally and remember it being a very diverse crowd.
Oh yes – that was 2010. I was there with Hubby, his sister and her husband. We got split up in the crowd. They went one way and we went the other. Hubby and I were standing on the left side of the picture toward the front. It was a pretty good spot, although we could hardly move. It was the first time I saw Sarah in person. 🙂
We were under the trees screen right. It was a cool, shady spot on a hill and I remember standing up and the Vietnam Memorial was right behind us.
I’m sure it was Sarah that brought most of that crowd ! Great party atmosphere and nobody burned or looted anything. We picked up our trash too 😀

Everyone wants my number now – twitter, yahoo, google … I never got this hit upon back when I was young & single … does that mean I’m finally hawt? I just click “skip” and say “sorry, dude, I’m married” 😉

Oops, that was meant as a response to leslie @8:10am
I knew that…. You can tell I’ve been around the block a few times (here)
😉
I realized what happened as soon as I posted. Hit “cancel reply” instead of “post comment”. Saw my comment still in the box then posted “comment” anyhow not realizing it wouldn’t line up.
And if that made sense, I’m now qualified to comment on Balloon Juice 😀
OT~ I just noticed this and brought it over. It’s a verrry interesting report.
HELP!!! I’m in the basement and my link to twitter is interesting….. 😉
Thanks for getting me out. I have an appointment later this morning. The link is to the @Reince (Priebus) tweet above.
OK, but before we help, what was your mother’s maiden name?
My poor mother! She had such a bad/long/Polish maiden name that the family changed it. When I was a little girl, I saw mail addressed to a name I couldn’t even read, much less pronounce. I wanted to send it back and my grandmother told me it was the real family name. I was so confused. It was years later that I finally got the “official” reason for the name change. At that point I had forgotten there had ever been any other name. LOL
I should do a post on this when I get a chance
Interesting topic, do it !!
Heh. Trump called Carlos Danger a … well, read it
Yes he did —-two days ago. He also inferred Huma had access to state secrets and Huma’s parents association with radical Islam is suspect.
I love how he tweets stuff like that – no filter.
Then he refuses to apologize and says it again.
Helps that he’s right.
Nice article on Dr. Ben and his rise in the polls …. and it doesn’t bash anyone 😀 I’m all for an outsider too, but hope they put Cruz on the ticket too, he’ll bust chops for them !
