#1 If this was a bar, most code enforcement offices would have put the place on notice and be working to close it down as a blight to the neighborhood.

#4 Leftists = Adolescents

#5 This is the type of behavior that leftist/marxist/socialist philosophy breeds.

This is a foretaste of what will become of society if Zero is elected with Nancy & Harry running things.

Not overnight, but over time, starting in the bluest areas you will see the "entitled" demanding that they are above any rules. The entitled will include the academic & media & political left as well as all their favored "minorities".

A free for all will ensue.

Just another example of the collision between collectivist ideals and the reality of human behavior.

Stock up on ammo you may need it.

#6 "There's a sense of entitlement to this town country," Evans said. "People think, 'If I want to do it, I'll do it, just try and stop me.' "

There, fully repaired.

#8 "Berkeley residents are angry -- they're mad at the president, the economy, all kinds of stuff.

And most of all they are mad at having tiny d..ks. More seriously they are mad at being such losers.

And that's just the women. The men are mad because they have any d..ks at all.

#10 I imagine the complaints box is filled with stuff about them carrying "Fruity Pebbles".

It actually sounds like a good place to go if you want to annoy liberals for a couple of hours.

#13 I wonder if there are actual organic changes in a Liberals brain physiology? A brain scanning experiment would be very interesting. They seem to act similarly different than conservatives, perhaps they have a malformed amigdala or something???

#14 Ya know, every time I go shopping in Walmart, the people are courteous even when the lines back up to the stupid apparel department. I thought *they* were supposed to be the barbarians....

#16 There is a department store in Boston that has a bargain basement. It is at subway station and easy to get to. Don't go there on sale days. Especially the Bridal Sale Day.

#18 In school they learned "self esteem". That is all. Because with "self esteem" you can do anything, to anyone, at anytime.

And that is why they have strict gun control.

#19 from what I've read (Here and elsewhere) they behave like undisciplined children, and a good smackdown simply doesn't register as anything except "Assault" no realization that they caused and provoked the situation.

In short this is what happens when they are NOT diciplined as children, and allowed to grow up "Free".

#20 I've been there once. Revolting. The Whole Foods in Mill Valley can be like this on rare occasions, but is nowhere near as bad. You mostly see it there on the complaint board. Some pretty funny stuff actually.

#22 I think leftism is a lack of empathy, covered up by a concious attempt at empathy.

Hence the contradictions between automatic actions of leftists and their stated aims.

#24 Speaking as your Cultural Anthropology Advisor, I consider this an exciting opportunity to study free-range hippies in their natural environment. Fascinating, simply fascinating.

#25 SteveS, that's more worthwhile than the U Mass chaplin that was offering 2 credits for students that worked on Obama's campaign in NH.

The school has disavowed any knowledge of this fraud.

#27 Bright Pebbles, I like to simplify it down to "Liberals love humanity, they hate people."

--yep, the economy is just so bad but somehow they find a way to tighten their belts and still afford to shop at the bowl....quivering lipped douchebags.

#30 "I forgot to take my medication."

I think that explains most lefty behavior.

In addition to this I would have required a ten years term for tree molesting.
