Who's "Mostly Peaceful" Now?

At a "may day party in Santa Cruz, California, a riot broke out and caused $100,000 worth of damage. The Police were overwhelmed and had to call for mutual aid from other agencies.

At a Minuteman rally against a day laborer hangout in Westminster, California, a fat mexican tried to beat up a Minuteman old enough to be his daddy, and got his ass handed to him. Police showed up, reviewed the video, and arrested the goon.

In San Jose, California, a mob delivered a beating to some other Minutemen anti-protesting the protest against Arizona's highly effective new law.

But it's the right wingers the Obama administration is worried may be violent. The press is playing up the possible violence from the right. Did you hear about these three incidents at all, before now?

Furthermore:

What does it say about these people? If you were at a street party and saw someone lob a rock through a window, would you join them or would you chastise, holler at, subdue, or otherwise try to discourage them? The revelers in California joined them. But what do you want from people already gathered to protest the rule of law?
