HAPPY MAY DAY? – AT 4:04 P.M. ET:  Yeah, workers of the world unite, and all that stuff.  Today is the day when leftists, with the intellectual maturity of 12-year-olds, go around breaking things in the name of good.  From Daily Mail:

Protest marches have been held around the world to mark International Workers' Day, and while some remained peaceful parades, others escalated into violent clashes and destruction. 

Riot police in Paris arrested more than 200 anti-capitalist demonstrators today as they went on the rampage to mark May Day. 

Water cannon and tear gas were used against the protestors, many of whom were anarchists belonging to the Black Bloc movement.

‘They have mainly targeted places of business, including branches of McDonalds and banks,’ said a Paris police spokesman.

Everyone knows that McDonalds is a threat to civilization.

‘More than 200 people were arrested by late afternoon, and isolated incidents of violence are on going.’

Worst hit was a McDonalds and Renault garage close to the Austerlitz railways station in the east of the city.

Cars and wheelie bins were also torched, while officers had rocks and other projectiles thrown at them. 

Social media posts had announced a ‘Revolutionary Day’ to coincide with similar demonstrations across Europe, and other parts of the word.

The police spokesman said some 1,500 hooded and masked anarchists had turned up on the sidelines of trade union marches.

Interior Minister Gerard Collomb said ‘the violence was completely unacceptable’, adding that ‘everything was being done to arrest’ those responsible.

Government spokesman Benjamin Griveaux said there was particular anger at the protesters covering up their faces.

He said: ‘When you have sincere convictions, you demonstrate with your face unmasked. Those who wear hoods are the enemies of democracy.’

COMMENT:  Very well said.  Hoods are symbols of hate and oppression.  But I'm sure a good time was had by most.
