Wow what a site!
Do ya think the fathers of the constitution ever imagined democracy would look like that?

Democracy does not look like that.

I spent an hour before bed last night watching thug police bully protesters in the streets via youtube videos.

Watch this “officer” hit a 24 year old girl square across the chest for just standing in the street.

Hey 4,

What’s your opinion of folks dropping sand and cement bags from an overpass onto a freeway? What about folks breaking windows of stores, lighting dumpsters on fire, throwing bags full of urine, beating 84 year old men, and throwing molotov cocktails?

Is that good protesting? Does it get any message across?

Tom (Buckley),

Bit of a chicken/egg problem, no? Someone sticks me in a ‘free speech cage’ I’m going to respond by tossing a little tea in the Harbor.

Meaningful, effective protest does not look like that.

Seriously, am I the only one that thinks these people are undercover young republicans posing as radical leftists in order to convince Joe and Jane Lunchpail to vote for McCain? Really, what else are they accomplishing besides making people vote for the GOP?
