I am posting some more video from Tuesday's Villa Park City Council meeting. The first one comes to us courtesy of Press TV. If you have never heard of Press TV before and are wondering why it is so favorable to the pro-CAIR side, that's because Press TV is an operation of the Iranian government.
In the below video, the crowd chants that someone "is a cop".
I assume that these tapes were produced by the pro-CAIR faction. Note the professionally-produced posters. Note the bullhorns with "Answer" written ( a radical leftist organization that seeks the destruction of Israel) on them. (http://www.answercoalition.org/national/index.html) Note the tired old leftist rhetoric of the chants. This demonstration was orchestrated by CAIR. It is typical of their tactics of intimidation and victimhood. Of course, the charge is always the same, "Racist", "Islamophobia", "bigot", ad nauseum.
But here is an item you might want to chew on. Standing in the front line of the pro-Pauli supporters was Rabbi Nachum Shifron, a man with a long grey beard that gives him away as a Jewish person. According to Rabbi Shifron, one man who got in his face told him that "it would have been better if Hitler and the Nazis had burned him too."
In the below video, Rabbi Shifron can be seen at about the one minute mark. He is dressed in a dark suit and sunglasses.
"Who's the minority now?"
How is that for hate?

"I'd make a few changes if I ran the zoo..."
Here is what I would say to the city council if I lived in Yorba Linda:
You should all be ashamed of yourselves for taking so many hours making a public spectacle, on a matter over which the council has essentially no jurisdiction.
A local organization exercised its right to freedom of speech by inviting some incenidary speakers for a fundraising event.
Other local citizens exercised their right to freedom of speech by holding a rally to protest the choice of speakers.
Still other local citizens exercised their right to freedom of speech by holding a separate rally with some offensively incendiary language of their own.
CAIR exercised its right to freedom of speech by creating and circulating a heavily doctored video favorable to the view it wishes to present to the public.
A few hundred local residents have exercised their rights to freedom of speech by holding rallies supporting and opposing one of the speakers at one of the protest rallies.
None of this is any of the city council's business, except to make sure there is adequate police protection so that nobody's civil rights are infringed by force or violence or intimidation.
Nobody knows what "the people of Yorba Linda" think, and no resolution from this council will clarify that. Even the next city council election will not establish exactly why voters do, or do not, re-elect each of you.
If four members of the city council want to sign a letter disassociating themselves from the remarks made in public by another member of the city council, that takes five minutes, not hours of meetings. Go ahead, exercise YOUR rights to freedom of speech.
A public hearing is so much red hot rhetoric, because an individual's exercise of free speech is no more subject to the tyranny of a legislative or popular majority than it is to the edicts of monarchy. Nobody in these crowds outside the meeting seems to understand that - and why whould they, with the council displaying its own ignorance in public? In the end, all the city council is empowered to do on this matter is to announce "We, too, have an opinion." So what?
Makes sense to me.
Occasionally I am reminded that you and I really can manage to live in the same country. You have my permission to share this with any or all members of the city council. As a resident of another state, it would not be appropriate for me to tell them how to do their job.
