throwing marbles under the hooves of police horses and using slingshots to pelt the animals.

The sensitive dogs would become burned out with too many alerts

Whatever happen to animal rights??? I hope these "Protestors" who are nothing but beasts get pummled by the brave men and women of the NYPD.

"ooooohh I second that emooootion"

[Mr Ramsbotham]

I hope the city is prepared to throw the book at anyone caught using criminal tactics to disrupt the convention ... make as many arrests as possible and lodge as many criminal complaints as are necessary; then follow through, no matter how many perps are involved. Also, they should be ready to break heads in order to protect the lives and property of innocents.

Are these fringe groups American groups?

[cripplecreek]

I wonder if liberals realize that these morons endanger us all, not just conservatives and republicans.

[tkathy]

This idiocy will end up getting a landslide for GWB.

[unixfox]

Are these fringe groups American groups.

No, they are DemocRATS.

[Badeye]

"This idiocy will end up getting a landslide for GWB."

Yep.

[Vermonter]

I hope the city is prepared to throw the book at anyone caught using criminal tactics to disrupt the convention ...

I'm sure the city and the NYPD will arrest hundreds if not thousands of these cretins.

Unfortunately, this being NYC, a democrat stronghold, the charges will ultimately be dismissed by a liberal judge listening to appeals from an ACLU lawyer.

Count on it!

[Allegra]

Their thinking is a lot like the thinking of terrorists.

[cripplecreek]

Isn't organized anarchy an oxymoron?

[aruanan]

So in addition to guarding against the most vile, organized and destructive of terrorists, Kelly and company have to combat a shadowy, loose-knit band of traveling troublemakers who spread their guides to disruption over the Internet.

Solution: treat the latter exactly like the former.

[RGSpincich]

'These hard-core groups are looking to take us on. They have increased their level of violence.'

Can always count on a few to blow themselves up before the big event. Hopefully information from them will lead to the others.

[Vermonter]

Solution: treat the latter exactly like the former.

Agree. Find some federal charges to lodge against the 'protesters' and send them before federal judges.

Are these fringe groups American groups?

They're adjuncts of the DNC.

Miami: they fueled anger by overreacting

Most New Yorkers may be liberals but their police for not known for putting up with very much bulls**t. If they think Miami cops are tough wait until they get a load of NYC's Finest.

[hobbes1]

And then have the city pursue fines relating to the estimated amount of money it costs, for each transgression.

[TexasCajun]

When is the DNC HateFest? ...and will John F'n Kerry cross the police union picket-line?

[Vermonter]

NYPD and NYFD are still reacting to the death of their brothers in the WTC attacks. I don't expect there will be much sympathy for the demonstrators who want to protest the administration which is going after the terrorists responsible.
