An anti-Bush demonstration in San Francisco ended with the arrest of 10 people, including one who was found carrying several Molotov cocktails after such a device was thrown at The San Francisco Chronicle building on Wednesday, police said.

Nine people were arrested for blocking traffic at Hyde and Market streets, said San Francisco police Commander David Shinn.

About 2,000 people participated in the rally and march organized by The World Can't Wait, a group whose focus is to remove President Bush from office.

Shinn said the march was mostly peaceful but added that there was a "small element bent on violent acts of destruction."

At one point, as the small group marched along Mission Street, somebody pulled out a Molotov cocktail, lit it and threw it against the Chronicle building, where it exploded, sending fiery material onto the shoulder of San Francisco police Officer Gary Constantine, who was not injured, Shinn said.

"They remained there for about 45 minutes, she said, refusing to let anyone move and clogging traffic."

I would simply run them over...

At one time, SF was a respectable city, but that has long past with the radical fringe leftist takeover. I only go into SF under duress now. It is a disgusting place, filled with every element of the perverted and liberal-criminal government that runs that city. Home, of course, to the Ninth Circus Court as well. The liberal stench is intolerable.

I'd bet even money that "About 2,000" is actually less than 1,500. And for 2-1 odds, I'll bet the real number is less than 1,000.

police officers...told the protesters that "anyone who didn't want to be arrested should get up and move to the sidewalk," said Villa.About a third did, Villa said. Without warning, she said, the police circled the remaining protesters, charged in and grabbed them, forcing them to fall on one another.

Without warning???? I don't think so.

I got an e-mail from a liberal friend telling me about a petition to 'Impeach Bush'

I gave her her!!

These people are allowing their blind hatred of Bush to affect their thinking!

It doesn't look good for them, if they keep this up.

Man, I sure hope the police were dressed up like orasl surgeons with the infection-resistant plastic suits and masks. On the other hand, maybe the police in San Fransicko don't even need to worry about it.

"all fall down"

Consider they each most likely carry some form for STD, scabbies or lice, this may end up being a big inconvenience for them.

"I'd bet even money that "About 2,000" is actually less than 1,500."

And at least half of those were paid to be there, I'd bet. Typical for SF - hire the homeless for these "peace" (aka POS) marches.

Ah, San Francisco... the hippy-liberals paradise. Its such a nice city. But it attracts some slightly kooky elements. And of course the peoples republic of Berkeley isnt far.
