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.

Exactly right. We can't blame the Chief for her orders. If she had any honor, however, her resignation would be on her superior 's desk eight o'clock in the AM.

The Marines are in DC to protect it from attack. I don't believe that violates posse commitatus ~ on the other hand, it's raining heavy off and on again around the DC area.

Not a good day for a demonstration.

These people do have a right to "protest" ~ and some of them will always be violent.

This evening a bunch of them will return to their hotels in this area. Their cars will be pryed open and looted by the local MS13 unit ~ they love the high end digital cameras this sort of people bring with them.

Justice will be done ~

Why is it some police chiefs feel it is necessary to bedazzle their uniforms with a rank representing about 30 more years of serving this country than they could ever dream of doing???

A 4 star police chief...That just pisses me off more than anything, except she’s not doing her job...That irks me more...

I’ll be at the house here in a little while...I bet we do not hear a peep about this stuff ANYWHERE on the news tonight...

Its almost getting to the point where it is just not worth it anymore...

If our conservative decency does not allow us to answer this seditious and treasonous acts of violence with the corrective response that totally decimates this activity, just because some may believe it would lower ourselves to “their” level???

I dunno, it just doesn’t make the trip with me anymore...

I don’t live in a city. The nearest recruiting station is 45 minutes to an hour away. They closed 15 minutes ago.

They better watch out wearing those “death masks”. They look an awful lot like mimes and mimes bring out violent reactions in many, many people.... (mumbling) Man trapped in a box...I’ll give you man trapped in a box...

The Chief has gone home for the day, and the calls now go to her voice mail.

Give me a minute to find another phone number for you all...

This should be one hell of a suit against the police department.

Just left a message telling her what a disgrace she is. Told her my son was protecting her while she lets these animals throw bottles rocks etc. Just a disgrace.
