In The Pierced, Studded Bellybutton Of The Beast
By Mitch Berg
Brad Carlson spent a gorgeous Saturday afternoon wandering about where madness dwells – at “Youth Against War and Racism’s” “anti-war” rally in (where else) Uptown Minneapolis:
I took the liberty of mingling amongst the young skulls full of mush outside an Army recruiting station on the corner of Lyndale Avenue and Lake Street. The group who calls themselves Youth Against War and Racism (slogan: “We’ve never met a pierced orifice we didn’t like.”) gathered at High Noon to chant endless vapid slogans.
As such, I took the opportunity to record video footage.
He did!
Expect lots of these, as the local patchouli-and-outrage industry warms up for September and the RNC Convention in Saint Paul.
I imagine during the convention that the Army Recruiting Station at Lake and Lyndale will draw tens of thousands of protesters – mostly U of M insta-radicals who have no idea how to find Saint Paul.
