I looked at the Recreate 68 website. It is as disgusting and Communist as it can get. The Dems deserve no less.

What’s the problem? Atticus Finch was a liberal, and he shot a rabid dog.

Good for the ACLU for once.

Remember all you “law and order” types on this board, that the “law” is that we have free speech in this country and the right to assemble. It is DIS-ordered if we allow police to selectively enforce the procedural aspects of the law just because a person is protesting at the time of an offense.

(Of course I would have no problem if Denver arrested all persons suspected of misdemeanor offenses regardless of whether they are protesting or not, then in that case, the ACLU would just be b*tching for the sake of b*tching)

As always, in law, precedent is a bad thing to set.

"We think there is a strong possibility that Denver is headed for a very disastrous and catastrophic situation,"...

Yep, and it is being caused by the Demoncrap's far-left components and their enablers in the ACLU.

Atticus Finch was a decent man. In those days he could have been either a Republican or a Democrat.

“Liberal” in the classic sense. It’s a little dicey for me because of the politics of Gregory Peck (I did read the book too).

The Rats deserve no less. Look at the “Recreate 68” website and have your extra large Barf Bag handy.

These guys aren’t for free speech, it is to violently disrupt the convention and shut off opposing views. Kinda like Cuba is currently.

Denver is going to need a Tent City to detain all of the rioters. It will be like a concentration camp full of anarchists.

I thought I read somewhere that Denver, the Mayor and City Council had already surrendered to the lefties.

Where I come from it’s pretty simple.

You break the law, you get arrested.

uhmmm...Henhk hem... >BO)

Pardon me while I point out that all the stinky
drunkie/Junkie pot smoking DNA trash protestors and rioters in 1968, were all Democrats, socialists, anarchists, and other forms of devolutionary Lefties.

All those involved in ‘Recreate ‘68’, and all the rest who plan on protesting and being “activists” at the Denver Convention this year, are all Democrats, socialists, anarchists, and other forms of devolutionary Lefties.

All those involved in plotting, and all the rest who plan on protesting and being “activists” at the GOP Convention this year, are all Democrats, socialists, anarchists, and other forms of devolutionary Lefties.

NOT ONE group of republicans are planning on protesting or “rioting” in De4nver, or at the GOP Convention

What happens, or doesn’t happen WILL BE ALL ON “the Left” being televised, for all the world to see, what the Left, and who the Left, really are....With Republicans for the most part, watching it all from their couches, eating popcorn, as the Circus Maximus plays out.

Do I want all the world to see the Left for what iit is? Sure do!

Anyone even faintly familiar with the Constitution knows this statement is blatantly false. Try again sucker.

I couldn’t agree more. They don’t deserve to live in America. I’d chip in for tickets to Cuba-if they couldn’t come back.
