Despite a bullet reading "hey fascist! Catch", Left-wing media claim Tyler Robinson is "Right-wing". Anything to avoid facing the fact that political violence is a growing problem on the American Left, says Laurie Wastell.

Ecko's video turns out to be an elaborate fake

Graffiti artist Marc Ecko broke into a government facility where one of the Boeing 747 planes which serve as Air Force One was parked, and tagged it with graffiti. Ecko then posted video of the tagging online, along with a video statement of “why I tagged the President’s plane.”

Marc Ecko of Ecko Unlimited broke into a government facility where one of the Boeing 747 planes which serve as Air Force One was parked, and tagged it with graffiti. Ecko then posted video of the tagging online, along with a video statement of “why I tagged the President’s plane.”

Ecko tagged one of the jet engines with the words “Still Free,” which is also the name of his Web site where you can find the videos.
In a statement accompanying the tagging video, Ecko said of the President that “his highest responsibility is to protect our freedoms, and the first among those is our right to speech.”

“That’s why I tagged the President’s plane,” said Ecko. “The President can’t fly around like a rock star, talking about how America is the greatest country in the world, but ignore what makes it great.”

As it turns out, the video is fake. ...

But perhaps Eoin Dubsky will show Ecko how it's done, next time GW is in the vicinity?
