IN A CLINK STINK
By DAREH GREGORIAN


August 28, 2004 

Welcome to New York.

Two protesters arrested for unfurling a Bush-bashing banner at The Plaza say they were mugged and manhandled during their harrowing overnight imprisonment in the bowels of Manhattan Supreme Court.

"We were robbed and I was assaulted," Cesar Maxit, 28, said of his and David Murphy's night in the holding cells of 100 Centre St. "They wouldn't even leave us 50 cents to make a phone call." ---Snip---

Murphy said he was fine rappelling down The Plaza — but frightened in jail.

"I was really scared," said the Manhattan trapeze-school teacher. He said a group of "three or four" prisoners demanded their money — taking his $6.50 and Maxit's $10. "My life was threatened," Murphy said.

Both, however, said they would do it all again.

Welcome to New York! Hippie protestors not having good jail experiences? Aww! That's too bad!

Don't do the crime if you can't do the time!

What's the problem? I thought the Bush haters loved it when the disenfranchised take money from people who have it.

Trapeze-school teacher? Please tell me this is a private school and not part of the public school curriculum.

The Manhattan Trapeze school is on a pier on the Hudson River near the Tribeca neighborhood in lower Manhattan. It's private.

These people are, technically, facing 25 years in prison. Their fun may be just beginning!

It's all a big joke to these scumbags. Look at their smug faces:

I hope they end up in Sing Sing for about two years each.

Those hippie commie b@stards asked for it.



Remember. It takes a strong man to cry....It takes an Even Stronger Man to stand there and laugh at that man.

While those hippies are crying about having their commie heads beat in...I'll be laughing.

That is the best part of all this.

Many of these protesting little snots come from elitist lefty families. They claim to be against the rich...while they are hanging out in the Hamptons.

SOOOO, when these little snots start getting busted and thrown in the can.....they will be dealing with a special sort of h3ll. They will meet some real anti establishment folks.

Remember that movie...Trading Places? Remember how Louie looked when he came out of the tank?

I can't wait until things really get going during the convention.

Let the whining commence!

Also, that blonde chick looks like she might be an easy lay-if I could get her away from her dweeb boyfriend...

I was thinking the same thing, Rebel.

She probably has never had a real man.

The guy she is with is meterosexual and a half.

I hope the next time he goes out to start trouble...the police hit him with that bats and knock him clean out of
his Cole Haans

If they are willing to do it all over again, they didn't learn much the first time. Crime demands punishment.
And, liberals call Bush supports stupid!

Maxit made his comments after he, Murphy, Terra Lawson-Remer, 26, and Rebecca Johnson, 25, were freed without bail on charges of reckless endangerment, assault and criminal trespass for their daring daylight stunt at the landmark hotel on Thursday.

What the dealio? I thought the plan was to ice these guys once they were arrested, let them sit in stir for as long as poosible. No bail? Is that friggin' idiot Bloomberg gonna play 'catch and release' with the Black Blockers and the Spartacus Youth League? If so, it's gonna be the longest week in history. What a clymer.
