Question

Singers beat up for singing National Anthem!

NEW YORK (AFP) - Members of a close-harmony group from Yale University are recovering after being ambushed and beaten up while on tour in California.

Members of the a cappella Baker's Dozen were performing at a party in San Francisco at the new year when their rendition of the "Star Spangled Banner" apparently sparked taunts and threats from fellow partygoers.

As the group left the house, they were attacked by dozens of assailants, suffering scrapes, black eyes and concussions, said Connecticut's News Channel 8.

"Besides any bruising or scrapes to the face, the main injury I suffered was I broke my jaw in two places," one of the singers, 18-year-old Sharyar Aziz, was quoted as saying.

Answer 1

The Left just hates for anyone to display any sign of patriotism. They want to shout down anyone who has a positive view of the USA, and intimidate them through threats and violence.

This has been going on for years:

"The stars and stripes became a center of controversy in Berkeley, CA on Thursday when city administrators removed American flags from all firetrucks.

Citing the banners as a possible irritant to some who live in this diverse and historically opinionated city, [the Berkeley city manager] ordered them removed from the departments seven firetrucks and two support vehicles before an antiwar rally Thursday at U. C. Berkeley. Officials said they were trying to avoid a repeat of violence that occurred during the Perisan Gulf War in 1991 when demonstrators hurled rocks and bottles at city firetrucks sporting American flags."

Answer 2

The name of the guy they interviewed would suggest he was Arabic (maybe Muslim, maybe not). But considering how the Republicans have dealt with Muslims (any minority really), one would venture to guess this is actually the result of the various diatribes handed out by Republican senators (like the guy from Vermont). "Muslims are evil and will take over Congress if we don't do something" and other such nonsense.

The Liberals have Keith Ellison and supported him when he chose the Qu'ran for his inauguration. I don't remember the guy's name from Vermont, but he is trying to make it illegal to even use the Qu'ran out of fear Muslims will take this country away.

I don't blame Republicans straight out. They aren't condoning violence. What they are doing though is repeatedly trying to associate Muslim and evil. What this does is that those who are very susceptible to propaganda get angry (because they actually believe all Muslims are trying to take over America) and then they attack the first Arab guy they see. They see it as Arab=Muslim=Terrorist; and none of the three are required for the other three. You can be Muslim and not be Arabic. You can be a terrorist and not be a Muslim.

Our leaders must pay better attention to what they say. All are lumped together and then called evil, this is why Arabs and Mexicans are beaten all the time (trying to take over the US). This is why blacks have trouble getting jobs (seen as theives or lazy or both). This is why whites must be completely and totally politically correct no matter what (seen as racist even if they've shown no sign whatsoever in the past). It is time for everyone to let it go (no matter what "it" is).

Answer 3

And were does it say they were attacked by Anti-American Liberals?

And why do you claim Liberals to be Anti-American when in fact it was Liberalism that created America?

Yes, those who were tired of being under Imperial rule fought back for their freedom... and thus a new country was born.. the United States of America. Those who believe in Freedom believe in being "free"... or as they say in french.. "Libre".. hence the term Liberal. Those who believe in old ways and father knows best (God in some cases) love to build walls around themselves and are quite paranoid.. those are what's called "Conservative". They keep to themselves... wishing to conserve their reclusive way of life.

Answer 4

i found another source for the story at http://www.acappellanews.com/

"The couple who hosted the party wonder whether the authorities are moving slowly because of the family involved. Rich Aicardi and two of his brothers who were involved in the incident are the sons of prominent San Francisco pediatrician Eileen Aicardi."


it appears that the main instigator in the fight was a 19 year old rich mommy's boy. a future george bush?

Answer 5

Must have sounded pretty bad... By the way, just because it's in San Francisco, doesn't mean the party was exclusively liberal.

And I'll bet even liberals love our national anthem.

Answer 6

That's insane.

Please tell me it was a coincidence that they were taunted for that on the same day the attack happened. That is too idiotic for words.

Answer 7

"this is simply by fact they are bringing torment, soreness and worry to the individuals on the different component to the war. What if the different guy or woman is a bible believing christian? i'm unable to help such acts of violence, even in self protection." So if the different guy or woman is an atheist or the different non-Christian this is okay to convey torment on them? "What with regard to the guy on the different section, they have been in simple terms teenagers drafted, they have been in simple terms born there? what if i replaced into born there?" this is not the troops you will desire to oppose. this is the guy who declared the war. The troops are in simple terms doing their jobs. combat the real enemy. "lots of the conserative christians i met have not been very advantageous. one occasion there replaced into an iraq war deserter who replaced into caught with the aid of the police and the police beat him up exceptionally undesirable, conseratives mentioned i wish i replaced into there to help the police, i could convey a bat and breck his neck, etc. different conseratvies encourages vandalism while somebody positioned an impeach bush bumper sticky label and have been given his windsheld smashed, some mentioned he deserved it, at the same time as others mentioned they could have performed worse! How is that christian?" in case you seem interior the Bible, God could have asked for better than vandalism. He could have asked for their heads! "additionally with the homosexuality undertaking. i replaced into very very anti-gay until i found out many homosexuals killed themselves over persuction or being lonely b/c they felt they have been taught its better to stay on my own then marry the comparable intercourse and such." certainly they many times kill themselves simply by fact they attempt to "undo" the gay, yet can not, and notice no different option. simply by fact of this the "ex-gay" theory is so risky. "sure, homosexuality is a sin, yet suicide is a worse sin." final I heard, so replaced into judging your pals. "Many grow to be gay after being sexually abused." they at the instant are not interior the final public. maximum gay all and sundry is gay in simple terms simply by fact they are gay. yet does it certainly remember *how* or *why* they are gay? No. "this is not my place to choose." relatively? You specific are doing a super form of it. The troops are immoral, gays are sinners, non-christians are extra deserving of being shot than Christians, and homosexuality is the consequence of abuse. Yep, seems such as you're judging.

Answer 8

Amusing that the man's name (Sharyar Aziz) was of Middle Eastern descent, sounds more like angry, right wing, ignorant bigots to me. But then again, that's just an assumption based on the overwhelming hate of Middle Eastern people by the intolerant right wing lovers.

Answer 9

So, because it happened in San Francisco it has to be Liberals that did it. You haters are really having to dig deep, aren't you. Grow up, child.

Answer 10

Sounds like they were anti-semites, not libs. With a name like "Sharyar Aziz" and singing the SSB, it's entirely possible.

Besides, YOU'RE the one who jumped to this conclusion in the first place and are now trying to encite hatred under false pretenses. It's people like you that spread hatred like this that cause this sort of thing to happen.
