RALEIGH, N.C. -- Three people appeared in court Monday after being charged with vandalizing the North Carolina Republican Party headquarters. However, a friend of the three people had an emotional outburst outside the courtroom.

Police said Vanessa Maria Zuloaga, 24, David Rueben Hensley, 20, and Melissa Lynn Brown, 18, attacked the headquarters around 11 p.m. Friday, leaving behind minor smoke damage, broken windows and vulgar messages. They were later charged with malicious damage to property using an incendiary device, a felony, said Raleigh police Maj. D.R. Lane.

Hensley and Brown were given court-appointed attorneys, but Zuloaga declined. After they appeared in court Monday, 18-year-old Asa Collier, who was present during the hearing, attacked some photojournalists outside the courthouse, damaging their equipment.

The three people are part of a group that the Federal Bureau of Investigation views as domestic terrorists. In July 2004, the same group was involved in blocking traffic and vandalism in connection with the G8 summit held in the Triangle.

When I saw "emotional outburst", I was expecting to read that one of the little terrorists had screamed at someone or started crying hysterically.

I should know by now that the liberal media cannot be trusted to tell the truth. Especially in their headlines.

[deport]

Are they part of an anarchist group?

[Hildy]

these are the adults and leaders of the future

No they're not...they're future inmates.

Unfortunately schools are a big part of the problem. They are the liberal nea, so I suppose it is no surprise. It's a growing attitude and belief that one is a victim, no matter what happens, no self control, no responsibility for ones actions, no accountability, and activism instead of "conforming" to socially acceptable behavior. Then there is always blaming some dysfunction in their families, or some non existent mental disorder.

Lock em up!

Exactly.

An incendiary device could have easily killed someone inside. They're just lucky it didnt.

Libs would let these 'freedom fighters' go, and then look for scapegoats in the future when the ringleader and his followers turn into another 'Charles Manson' clan.

Better to 'nip it'... 'Nip it in the bud' ...as Barney Fife would say.

Good, now their voting rights will be revoked. Hit 'em where it hurts.

David Rueben Hensley, 20, hometown unknown; Vanessa Maria Zuloaga, 24, of Columbia, S.C.; and Melissa Lynn Brown, 18, also of Columbia, S.C., were charged Saturday with malicious damage to property using an incendiary device. http://www.news14charlotte.com/content/top_stories/default.asp?ArID=78571

LOL! Good idea. The pepper sprayer should be built right into the camera so the photographer merely has to switch triggers and squeeze.

[CWOJackson]

Might get some real fun footage that way also.

[Tar Heel Bushie]

Yep, and throw away the key. Can't wait to see the names of the court-appointed lawyers. Think it's possible that John Edwards could be on that ticket? HMMMMM? Welsh

[No Longer Free State]

To create the irony of ironies, they should be charged with a hate crime.

Theresawithanh: Yes, it can make one nervous. I'm from the SF Bay Area where this type of violence and criminal behavior has been going on for a LOOOOOOOOONG time. NCer's, and I'm one now, need to really recognize how much anarchists would love to get inside other states, and turn them into liberal meccas. Point? Elect solid candidates, elect constitutionally-based judges. Behavior like this should be PUNISHED; not endorsed, coddled, or excused (like it's been in CA for damned-too-many years).

This "crime", IMHO, is a wake-up trumpet.

[American_4_Ever]

Douchebags, all of these punks!

[F.J. Mitchell]

Without a doubt.

[CondiArmy]

I think we need to keep track of all the scum who get their name in the news for acts like this. Maybe find out where they are from, where they live, keep a list.....you know for "future reference".

>>Who is teaching them this is the way to go?

violent video games, cBS/ABC/NBC, and movies that teach kids it is 'normal', and there are NO CONSEQUENCES, to lashing out with violence.

The kind of stuff VIACOM pumps out every day.

(also the 60's Dr.Spock childreading books that said you COULDN'T spank kids... they had to be treated as 'equals'.

Dr. Dobson has a better child-rearing book out that teaches parents that strong-willed kids MUST be broken, and must respect authority by a certain age or its too late)

[rockabyebaby]

as I stated before these are the leaders of tomorrow because we all know when they grow up they will be lib/dems and probably run for office, maybe even the Presidency - as we know their are TRAITORS, RAPISTS AND MURDERS in office as we speak so a little "emotional outburst" will not stop this trio from moving forward and holding an elected office!
