Just for some fun tonight, did anyone hear of the protest in Dallas,

It was tons of fun this time.

The gun idiots that have been holding protests in front of mosques in suburbs of Dallas decided to take it to the Nation of Islam Mosque in South Dallas/Oak Cliff.

They were met by counter protesters, and not just your garden variety. The Huey Newton Gun Club and The New Black Panthers.

10 minutes. The white guys, protecting us all, left quick.

Only in Dallas!!!

and glad no one was hurt. It's satisfying to hear how the right-wing "anti-Muslim" troublemakers were intimidated into retreat, but this could have been very bad.

Dallas Police Department officers assigned to maintain the peace must have been sweating turnips, and I don’t blame them. Voluntarily placing yourself between hostile groups of angry hotheads is hard enough; doing it when they’re all showing off their loaded guns should entitle you to bonus pay.

No kidding. House walls aren't much protection against bullets either.

With the involvement of the New Black Panthers.

Huey P Newton Gun Club is one thing - NBP - no bueno.

bunch of guys at all. The NBP group. Pretty certain leaders have mellowed with time. Of course could be wrong but nothing compared to this bunch of idgits that have named themselves BAIR. Anyone remember "the Protest Warriors"?

Same bunch of knuckle draggers.

When that happens, they go scurrying and hide until the bad guys go away.

Honestly can't believe the BAIR kids were wise enough after just 10 mins to pack it in and run. Thank the heavens and all the angels.
