DC Recruiting Center Under Attack: Rocks and Paint Bombs: Cops Under Orders to do Nothing
On-Scene Call From Kristinn | March 19, 2008

Posted on 03/19/2008 1:48:04 PM PDT by tgslTakoma

Just got a call from Kristinn on-scene.

This is the SECOND round of attacks that the station and Freepers have withstood today.

Cops are clearing the street of cars so the violent radicals can march down the street to the recruiting center unencumbered.

Crowds have been throwing rocks, paint bombs in GLASS bottles, water bottles, and anything esle they can throw.

MPDC Chief Cathy Lanier was there before the attacks, ORDERING HER OFFICERS to DO NOTHING if the station was attacked.

No arrests are being made.

More info as I get it.

Kristinn is asking any Freepers and Friends in the area to come down and stand with the Freepers there now.

Be aware that this is not a place for children.

“Moonbat City”—it has a certain ring to it!

It does.

You wanna see sin of the wickedest kind?
Here it is!
You wanna see virtue left behind?
Here it is!
Sodom was vice
And visa-versa
You wanna say where the vice is worser?
Here it is!
I mean, here it is!


You wanna live life in the rottenest city?
Here it is!
Women and whiskey, night and day?
Here it is!
You wanna embrace the golden calf?
Ankle, and thigh, and upper half?
Here it is!
I mean, here it is!

Moonbat City
Moonbat City
The Lord don't like it here

Moonbat City
Moonbat City
Your reckoning day is near

Moonbat City
Moonbat City
Here's what he's gonna do

God love this town
And swallow it down
And goodbye to you

Will you go to heaven?
Will you go to hell?
Either repent, or fare thee well

God will take care of Moonbat City
Comes the end, and it won't be pretty
Here it is!
I mean, here it is!

Here it is!
I mean, here it is!

Here it is!
I mean, here it is!
Amen!

Outside the White House (ie Pennsylvania Ave) I believe is Secret Service jurisdiction.
They were warned, just as MPDC were warned a week beforehand.

Posse commitatus does not apply.

DC is a federal district.

The section of the Constitution that sets up the District also sets up military bases.

LOL !!

That wouldn't surprise me a bit. Coddle the rioters and arrest the peaceful counter-protesters.

BTW, It's 28 hours and counting, for the chief's "within 24 hour" return call.

I think the Marine Barracks are right down the street...

14th and I???


No, they’re over at Eastern Market, around 8th and I SE not 14th and L NW.

Hey it doesn’t matter where the barracks are located. The Marines have crossed more dangerous terrain than that.

There was some discussion as to whether DC falls under the jurisdiction of federal law, as it is not a state. The implication seemed to be that they can make their own laws.

IIRC, D.C. has had home rule since the '70s.

Maybe this next time they will feel empowered (from their freedom to toss paint bombs yesterday) to toss molotov cocktails and acid bombs.

I have seen multiple references to acid bombs and molotov cocktails.

It seems some form of fire/safety measure is warranted in the face of such a potential threat.

Can anyone research what it would take (without illegality) to be able to tap into a fire hydrant there and hook up a small fire hose (1 1/2 inch line)? Do the hydrants there have sufficient pressure (50-100#)? It could be useful if the crowd gets out of hand, too...
