most disturbing thing in politics this week?

Oh, by the way, over 700 arrests of protestors at this point, and what does the NYT have to say about it?

"Until now, the organized protests that have drawn hundreds of thousands of people have proceeded mostly without violence."

Tell me - which side does this misstatement serve?
Even though Bill Maher ignominiously encouraged rioting in the streets this week,* I am unaware of such riots having occurred. Most of the press I've read has commented (though anecdotally) on its surprising peacefulness, though admittedly I'm a slave of sissified liberal media.

Can you direct me to the true news stories detailing the violent arrest of the angry mobs?

Thanks,
Gattigap

"[T]onight, I am urging all the protesters in New York next week to riot! I'm talking about good old-fashioned rioting, the kind that made whitey move to the suburbs. Look, protester, you spent two weeks making that papier-mâché Dick Cheney mask. Now light it on fire and torch the nearest GAP store. Two lesbians with a “Lick Bush” sign is not going to make the “Nightly News.” Pick up a garbage can and throw it through a Starbucks window! I don't want to see a candlelight vigil. This is New York ; there's a body count at Simon and Garfunkel concerts.

"If anything with Trump written on it is standing after September 3 rd , you're a bunch of pussies who aren't worth the hemp in your Timberland shoes.
I want to see cab drivers so nervous they stop picking up the white people. We're Americans, damn it! We burn cars over basketball games. Let's make some noise. Let's kick some ass. If I want to turn on the TV and see nothing, I'll keep watching the Olympics."

Perhaps it sounded funnier on TV than it does in print, but you get the idea.
