Pro-Hamas Protesters Raid Kamala Harris Event

They deserve each other.


A hastily organized rally supporting Vice President Kamala Harris descended into chaos after anti-Israel protesters infiltrated the Big Apple event -- and later barged into an afterparty venue, causing several thousand dollars' worth of damage to its outdoor space.

Several demonstrators against Israel's military campaign in Gaza were booted from the Democratic gathering in Harlem, where Mayor Eric Adams gave an impassioned speech.

"Make sure you vote," Hizzoner chanted as the disrupters were dragged from the tiny venue in Upper Manhattan.

Adams stood with other prominent elected state Democrats, including City Council Speaker Adrienne Adams (who is not related to the mayor) and Gov. Kathy Hochul, as he endorsed the party's presidential ticket.

...

While protesters were escorted out of the main rally, which sources said wasn't attended by Harris or her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, the demonstration took an ugly turn in front of a restaurant where up to 25 attendees stopped afterward.

The angry mob of around 50 protesters even stormed into the restaurant Bird in Hand at Broadway and West 146th Street as stunned patrons looked on, according to footage from the scene.

Other videos showed cops taking rabble-rousers into custody as a crowd circled the police. Whistles and horns sounded, and smoke bombs were also set off during the brouhaha.

One protester appeared to try to swipe at cops with a cardboard sign, leading several officers to grab the demonstrator and arrest her on the sidewalk, more footage showed.

At another point, authorities chased after another on Broadway during a brief encounter. "Free Gaza" was also graffitied on a police car, and an anti-Israel poster with the words "No Votes For Bombala's Genocide" was briefly plastered on a restaurant window.

At least 14 people were taken into custody, according to police.

Bird in Hand owner Brian Felicetta told The Post he estimated damages to the restaurant's outdoor seating area were at least a few thousand dollars. He will have a better idea Thursday when he surveys the aftermath.

"Bombala" recently reassured pro-terrorist Muslims that they have voices which need to be heard.

Maybe that might wake up some of the drones. They will get upset when someone from their "stories" is eliminated.

38 NYC spent over $5 billion on illegal immigrants. That is expected to double. That doesn’t include the rest of NY state, where counties are being overwhelmed. People are fleeing at record rates and NY leads in net population loss. Even worse, the people coming in are not anywhere near to replacing the revenue being lost. In fact they are a net drain on revenue.

NYC is a tinder box. I expect at some point that explodes and burns out of control.

Adams, Hochul and the communist legislature deserve every last bit of this. Delenda est NY.

Nobody sane would ever mistake a Democrat voter for a less than gullible people.

There was a lucid moment in Democrat voters, it seemed. They sensed that all this "sharp as a tack--never been sharper" talk was not the complete truth, and many of them had the human reaction of being betrayed.

However, "Generic Democrat" always polled higher than Trump on these polls, and even though the DNC was central to the people assuring voters Joe was "sharp as a tack" and the heart of that feeling of betrayal. Kamala Harris became "Generic Democrat" in the flesh, and they all believed and were saved.

A lot of their constituency is transactional (close to forty percent) in nature aka Free Shit Army and as long as their beaks get wet, they don't care what dummy the Dems put in office nor about the country falling apart really.

The only solution is to cutoff the free shit and racial tribalism payouts which is coming anyway but if wise, the GOP will pull the plug now rather than later and it can't be filibustered.

Toho is finally opening the gates on 4K restorations of some of their most important catalogue titles to the West.

Criterion just announced 4K re-releases of Seven Samurai and the original Godzilla.

A lot of Pro Palestinian people support VP Harris. But, many don't. I REALLY don't trust the press in how they will handle this.

Rightwingers have no intention of listening to issues that concern anyine except their lobbyists. Why would anyone waste time protesting to a group that will definitely not hear them?

Edit to add;
Is this really the best time to amplify division on the Left?

they are demanding it under threat of letting Trump win. their position is grotesquely irresponsible given the stakes.

4K is a very high-rez video format. Blu-ray is 1920 x 1080 pixels. 4K is 3840 x 2160. But if the original source material isn't very high quality itself, you won't see any improvement going from BR to 4K and possibly a decline.

I also don't like the gamma curve on most 4K discs. You can adjust the curve on BR sources if your receiver supports it. But for 4K, the gamma is built-in and can't be changed.

The 4K discs also have so much storage space that they usually also have higher-quality audio (atmos, DTSX, etc).

Posing for the revolution and selfies is more like it. Most of the rank and file start crying and blubbering if they find themselves facing expulsion or jail for their antics. They are more pets of the establishment than anything.

Basically, revolutions are not possible if the institutions are already controlled by your peeps. Only the facade of it like the Red Guard in China is left. That eventually gets stomped by the PTB when they get too big for their britches.

These kids ain't down for the struggle for the violence like old Bolshies were nor the Chinese.

The first 70 comments (didn't read replies) are all very negative. Every single one. The nicest ones are, "She's been there three years what's she been doing until now?" Probably ten percent outright mention Communism.

The 71st commenter says they'll vote for a woman because, "forty five men in a row haven't gotten it right..."

Seventy in a row is now what I expected.

They can try, but this little excursion they took, they brought in some of their best troops, and now they're trapped.

They're going to die, all of them, and when Russia decides to punish along the rest of the front, they could end this thing in weeks. Up to now they haven't been trying to do that, but these geniuses decided invading Russia was a good idea.

Even bragged about it, like it was 1941.

Posted by: ... at August 15, 2024 01:57 PM (JrF6z)

Depends on the quality of the master and transfer. Some are indeed crap. You also need at least true 4K all the way from the disc player to the TV. If your receiver or TV isn't capable of playing native 4K, then the quality will suffer from the downsampling.

Also, because of the higher rez, the 4K picture is more susceptible to proper picture settings. Turn OFF all digital enhancements, sharpness increases, auto-this and auto-that. Just play the source output without any additions or subtractions.

326 315 I AI upscaled the HD Atomic Blonde and much prefer it to the actual 4K one. I admit it may be my projector since it needs to be tuned for each HDR source, because I didn't want to spend double on a projector.
Posted by: ... at August 15, 2024 02:10 PM (JrF6z)

=======

Can you turn off the HDR on the projector?

I admit that HDR is something of a mixed bag in general. It actually works best on black and white films (get that shadow detail in here!), but it's often something like a weird trick to blow out whites unnecessarily (gotta hit a million nits, or something).

Also, I hear that Dolby Vision is actually a much better way to filter the colors. The disc/source has to be configured for it, but those that are come out very nice...or so I've heard. My TV and player don't do it.

HDR is a metalayer on top of the original image, so the brightening effects on colors will go away, but the fine detail of the underlying image should remain.

That could be called "washing out" the image, but it wouldn't be at the levels of what anyone would actually call "washing out" an image in real life.

The campaign also rejected the idea of another vice presidential debate. Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz have agreed to an Oct. 1 debate sponsored by CBS News, but Vance today also said that he had agreed to another face off, a Sept. 18 event hosted by CNN.

Our blu ray player died about 3-5 years ago (I know, what a range. Remembering things is hard on the wrong side of 40!). So we pulled the even older DVD player out of storage and it’s still kicking.

395 >>Compare prices now vs last year. That’s what inflation measures. You’ll find prices have barely budged.



Homeowners Insurance Rate: Up over 35%.

Car Insurance Rate: Up over 30%.

Tell me more about your fictitious world where Inflation isn't happening, though.

404 While protesters were escorted out of the main rally, which sources said wasn't attended by Harris or her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, the demonstration took an ugly turn in front of a restaurant where up to 25 attendees stopped afterward.

LOL. Protest theater. The rented a mob to go make a scene at a place that didn't matter, run by surrogates. So they get to show the Jew-hating terror lovers that they'll be tolerated, while showing the non-terror-lovers that they won't hesitate to eject the rambunctious terror-lovers if needed.

Yawn.

Good afternoon.

True, but that distinction will be lost on most pro-terror CHUDs. The takeaway from these videos will be that pro-terror CHUDs are rioting at Kumswala events. That will not help this whore with demographics she desperately needs to lock down but hasn't yet.

Wow you are fcking retarded.

You're going to tell people that the numbers right now *don't count* because inflation slowed down in the most recent year? The inflation from previous years doesn't count?

Are you a biologist mathematician? Only someone "well educated" (HA!) could be this stupid.

409 Insurance is a helpful tool to buck false federal statistics.

Insurance isn't a Product but a Hedge on the Future Cost of Replacing MANY Products.

That's why it tracks with True Inflation. Not Reported Inflation.

Bush "Miss Me Yet?" Billboard Appears Near Highway

If you drive along I-35 in Wyoming, Minnesota, you might see a billboard with a picture of George W. Bush and the words, "Miss Me Yet?"

Bob Collins of Minnesota Public Radio says that the billboard is real, not Photoshopped, and he has been trying to chase down who is behind it.

As of Tuesday morning, no luck. While many may miss President Bush, he seems to be enjoying his life outside of the spotlight, where he doesn't have to deal with load on the shoulders of the current president.

422 I think people have to start banning Ivy League schools as any ordinary person would ban anti-semitic, or Nazi, incubators. It is shameful and everybody involved should be punished, including many innocent people-who merrily encouraged their classmates to protest the way German citizens celebrated when Nazis closed down Jewish businesses.
