A march at the Republican convention in New York City turned ugly when a plain clothes detective was yanked from his motorcycle and repeatedly stomped and punched by a group of protestors until he was unconscious. "People started tugging at his bike and pushing him around," said Rob Raney, a 22-year-old Ohio college student. "Finally they just pushed him off his bike."

This proves that the Kerry Leftists are anti-American. They make me sick.
Was the bike marked NYCPD, or look like it?
" sporty Italian-made scooters"
Anyone who has any doubts about the character of the two main political parties should study the nature of their respective enemies.
friggin' commies.
"It isn't too far-fetched that a 527 (MOVEON, ACT SOROS) are paying protesters."

Hey, if the Dems themselves were walking around bribing the homeless to vote in 2000 with cigarette packs, then this possibility is very NEAR-fetched...
One of the few times I approved a Dem. politicians policies was when Mayor Daley, Sr.'s Chicago cops cracked commie protesters' heads at the '68 Dem. convention.
Answer to your question: when you are traveling down the highway in excess of the speed limit and you see an unmarked patrol car in your rearview mirror, do you recognize it?
Why just last week I was listening to and NPR discussion among protest leaders and an ACLU representative that said that the protestors and the NYC police had negotiated all kinds of things to not get in the way of lawful 1st ammendment protests.
The ACLU person was thrilled that they had gotten judges to instruct the police on what they could and could not do and that ACLU representatives would be with police leadership to monitor many activities, where possible so as to keep the police from over-reacting. She assured the NPR interviewer that things would be non-violent.
While, the NPR interview was real, the left can never be trusted. I wonder what the rank in file police will now feel about the protestors and what will really happen. Payback is a bitch and I am sure that the ACLU will find this out and end up with lots and lots more lawsuits against NYC.
"Communism must be built with non-Communist hands," V.I. Lenin remarked. To accomplish this goal, Lenin instructed, it will require the help of many "useful idiots." Through the past century, millions of "useful idiots" swarmed to provide that help through numerous Communist front groups that invariably appealed to noble motives. The "united front" tactic was developed to both camouflage Communist direction and to give false appearance of popular support for Communist objectives. One thing that's always overlooked by the use-full idiots, is that once a Communist regime is established, historically a purge of these very same useful-idiot who were instrumental in the establishment of the communist regime has occured.
Anyways, these peacefull demonstrators have been endorsed, supported and subsidized by a huge fifth column composed of hard-core leftists, Communist individuals and groups. Spring of last year, during the heyday of the anti-war demonstrations, FOX news did an investigation into the organizations that sponsored the current anti-war protests and discovered in every single case they were promoted not by official DNC affiliated organizations but by anti-American Communist organizations such as:
World Peace Council
U.S. Peace Council
Institute for Policy Studies
Transnational Institute
National Lawyers Guild
Committees of Correspondence
Chinese Progressive Association
Refuse and Resist
Ramsey Clark
Leslie Cagan
Ralph Nadar
International ANSWER
United for Peace and Justice
Winning Without War
Not In Our Name
Global Exchange
The revolutionaries leading this network are rebuilding the mass protest movement of the 1960's, recruiting new youth cadres. They are following the formula they have honed so well: organize, mobilize, radicalize, and militarize. You can expect that their demonstrations will become more overtly radical, embracing more militant Marxist themes. You can also expect that the demonstrations will escalate in violence. This, in turn, will lead to calls for more police-state measures, thereby destroying more of our constitutional safeguards and pushing us closer to the kind of socialist, totalitarian regimes that the movement leaders so ardently admire.
United for Peace and Justice is an organization that claims responsibility for organization of the first batch of marchers in the streets. Now we're hearing about cops being knocked senseless, and things being set on fire.
It'd be funny if it wasn't so disgusting. On Sunday, ABC broadcast a re-run of The Practice episode where their client was charged with assault against a LEO that occured while she tried to demonstrate against Bush's environmental policies. The episode portrayed Bush, and his administration in a very bad light for implementation of a free-speech zone 5 miles from Bush's motorcade for protestors that were anti-Bush. Notice how nobody's questioning why these use-full idiots aren't in cages like protestors at the DNC convention where. Let us not forget either, the strong arm tactics that were used against anti-Clinton demonstrators during his terms in office either. This The Practice episode lamented the trampeling of civil rights where the whole country was supposed to be a free-speech zone.
Yes.
I'd like to see this thug sent to a maximum security prison for ten years.
Tear Gas? A bullet between the eyes is self defense in this case. Just make sure that you have a magazine with 16 bullets.
I just heard John Gibson talking about this on Fox. Apparently, there was a lawyer who was there to make sure the police didn't "overstep their bounds" when dealing with the protestors. She witnessed the event, but hasn't come forward to try and help ID the perp.
Of course not. She is hoping to find him first so she can get money to represent him. What other motive would a lawyer like this have?
Was there just one? I thought I read that it was a group and they were pushing and shoving the detective until they knocked him off is motorcycle. Also, that more than one person was beating him.
