Isn't burning dumpsters, overturning cars, harassing citizens, and smashing windows of businesses already against the law?
When you're talking about 10,000 G-8 protestors
I live here- despite misrepresentations by the city fathers to the contrary, based on actual meter connections and phone service, Brunswick is believed to have 16,000 residents. The whole of Glynn County, including the islands, has about 60,000 people.
Our police force ran- I say again, ran- from racial disturbances about 6 blocks away from our house. This happened about 2 years ago, and the news was suppressed, even locally. My wife & I unshipped weapons from the armory, and waited, and we got lucky- it burned out before reaching us- but the old house we inhabit is tactically indefensible. Talk about sweating blood.
G-8 is a farce, in my opinion- we, the sheep, are being sold it as we were the 1996 Atlanta Olympics ( for your info, ATL is about a 5-hour drive from here ) where we were all told to put up with the inconvienience because it would make everybody here rich & famous.
We're still waiting on our cut of the money and fame, and G-8 will be no different.
These characters who are wanting to protest look to me like professional malcontents, with the usual smattering of useful dupes thrown in to fool the press. Like Seattle.
