I’m getting too old for this sch*tt!
Thought I’d take a few photographs of the Stand With Palestine event Sunday 10-15-23 at Madison’s Tenney Park shelter. Should have known better.
While trying to take a photograph of a poster outside the shelter — and of only a poster — a woman of short stature stuck a sign in my face. (It read: “100% free abortion on demand!”)Being taller, I held my smart phone over her head to photograph the sign. At that point, a young dark-haired man rushed from my right and shoved me violently to the concrete sidewalk, my head slightly hit the brick wall at the NW corner of the shelter.
Then this guy (check out the link. Who IS THIS GUY?) came up to me and said I didn’t look too bad. Refused to identify himself. I’m a little shaken up as I write this but sustained no visible injuries. Credit to the body fat Blaska has assiduously built up over the decades. [UPDATE: But I’m sore as all hell. Couple ibuprofens and a glass of cabernet sauvignon on order.]
I clearly identified myself — in fact, had earlier given my business card to one of them. At that time asked if I could take a picture of her holding her sign. She said no, so I walked away. This time I just wanted to take a photograph of a poster outside on a ledge. Asked for the name of the young man who shoved this old guy to the concrete sidewalk. They claimed no one pushed me.
No, I do not have witnesses who would verify this account. I came alone. So it’s my word against you know who.

Will the city have a Stand with Israel” rally?
If there is an Israel Rally, I am attending.

Well, in Madison, the Pied Piper leads the crowd; so who is he leading today?
Despicably gutless, lyin’ Sneak Attack Lefties. You don’t need that $#!t is right; your well-documented chutzpah is evident.
The Gotch (five [5] years Concourse Hotel/Fogcutter Underground/Piccadilly Pub/Haymarket bouncer) would’ve LUVED to have tagged along.

I’m probably among several of your commenter colleagues who wish you had been there too. “Sir, do you have an issue with Mr. Blaska you’d like to discuss?”
What ‘ya goin’ do crotch? Hit ’em with a pickle? Sit down, have a cup of tea and shut up. I don’t believe a word of this post.
Bear spray.
Wow! I’m sorry to hear this. Did you speak with police?
I filed a report, yes.
I can see it now: The report reads “One David Blaska, old white guy, well known far-right extremist, CLAIMS he was assaulted by peaceful protestors.” Its fate? The circular file.

Kind of a Tim Carpenter moment? It’s always interesting that the protesters want television coverage but not enough to be identified. Harvard students are starting to learn social media posts will cause their employment possibilities to dwindle.
“Kind of a Tim Carpenter moment?”
GREAT point Bob; who’d want this DISGUSTING BEHEMOTH POS coming at them unblocked…?

Hope you are ok,David! Don’t these lefty nuts realized that Hamas would vaporize them if they could? Our new pastor was asked what he thought about Madison; his reply “Madison is a very angry town.” Your attack proves that.
This is happening more, I believe, from these pro-Hamas lunatics even than is normal for the radical left. On some level, I have to think these people have chosen to accept murderous violence as justified. Be careful, Dave. Madison needs you more than ever.
Hope the Cabernet was good. I probably would have used an uncut Bourbon.
Violence in the name of some twisted vision of social justice is perfectly acceptable to the left. We saw proof of this in summer of 2020. Expect worse if Biden gets toppled in 2024, especially if it’s by Trump. No wonder people are arming themselves.
Rats! I wish I could have tagged along but I knew nothing about this event or that you were heading that way. If you’ve got time before you head out the door to one of these events, shoot out a text message to me so I can see if I can squeeze some of them in, there is relative safety in numbers. Although I’ve been out of state much of the last month and a half dealing with ongoing family emergencies I think I’ll be able to join you at least some of the events so don’t write me off.
It’s really sad what those supporting the extremes of the political left are willing to resort to to push their immoral agendas, persecute anyone that they think might oppose their point of view and physically assault anyone within arms reach using their go-to rationalization “the ends justify the means”.
Anyone, yes I mean anyone, that supports or justifies the Palestinian terrorist attack, yes terrorists, on soft civilian targets in Israel is morally bankrupt. The Palestinian terrorist attack on Israel wasn’t a military operation, calling it that is a bald-faced lie, it was an ISIS and Iranian inspired TERRORIST attack on innocent civilians.
DESPICABLE LEFTIES ARE AN EMBARRASSMENT. Unless they outnumber you by at least 100 to 1, they couldn’t punch their way out of sopping wet one-ply @$$-wipes.
The one thing Blacks, Whites, women, men, Muslims, Atheists, Christians, et al, all have in common?
There are YouTube videos of them beating the everLUVin’ p!$$ out of comically inept Lefties.
The average despicable Lefty is a pasty, doughy, Low-T, ‘nadless, college-aged dweeb, (yet also include flaccidly enfeebled, ancient, imbecilic Bi-Polar bares fans) who’s never done manual labor or been in a fight, yet feel brave enough to sucker-punch a girl from behind, or push a senior citizen down or smack them with a bike-lock; anything, as long as they’re in a crowd of at least 50 like-minded incels.
But yell ‘boo’ and they all scatter. They’re too STOOPID (sic) to vote and literally do not know what a ‘fascist’ is or what the word ‘Nazi’ is an abbreviation of.
These gutless morons have officially passed the pu$$ies from Power Rangers to claim the title of Least Threatening Minions with signs.

Well that didn’t work.
Suffice to say a search of “video camera pen” may yield what you need for next time. And we all know there will be a next time.
Good luck Bond.
Sounds like your time in Tenney Park, Squire, was “solitary, poor, nasty, brutish and short.” I guess someone finally managed to defund the police. Glad your injuries were few. Looks like we are on our own.
Let them try it in a small town.
My own modest form of protest has been to wear a Star of David t-shirt while walking through campus. So far, only dirty looks and the occasional epithet. Wish I’d known about the event at Tenney Park–I’d have shown up just to piss off the cheerleaders for Hamas baby-killers.
