STATE CAPITOL - Security at an anti-war rally outside the state Capitol this morning allegedly had to break up a confrontation between a Fox News reporter and Ward Churchill, a former University of Colorado professor who caused an uproar when he called victims of the 9/11 terrorist attacks "little Eichmanns."

Churchill, who was thrust into the national spotlight after writing a controversial essay in which he compared the victims of the 9/11 terror attacks to Nazi bureaucrat Adolf Eichmann, was hounded by the persistent reporter, who allegedly put his hands on Churchill, organizer Glenn Spagnuolo said.

They are there only for excitement and anarchy. They have no message.

Exactly, their just plain criminals. The RATS are going to get what they deserve because they've supported these creeps in the past.

Thanks, I’ve seen surfer boy alluded to here at FR but didn’t realize it was him.

The watchword Sunday, on the eve of the gathering, was security, especially amid rumors that protesters were preparing to rush the security check point into the convention complex.

police distributed a pamphlet reminding protesters of where they have a right do demonstrate and warning them they can be arrested if they refuse a lawful order to disperse.

Glenn Spagnuolo, co-founder of Recreate 68, an anti-war group that was expected to lead the first protests Sunday, responded to the police pamphlet with disdain: “We have a pamphlet called the Constitution,” he said in a statement. “A lot of us have read it already.”

"Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups"

The mental disease described as BDS didn't start with W and hasn't stopped with W. It metastasized years ago. In this instance we see it attacking FNC.

IMO, BDS has been leveraged into one of the most potent weapons wielded by our enemies the Islamists and other statist elements.

A couple of them in the video looked young. Commies in the 60’s fired up the younger ones and sat back and watched. It works. Yeah Spagnuolo is no kid.

The Dems may get what they deserve (I hope) but innocents will get caught in it too. There was a Freeper yesterday that was at work and posted about plans his office was making in case they can't leave.

Dems go home!

I don’t understand why they went after him. He was giving them a chance to speak. They are mental deficients.

Sadly, you’re right. I read a FReepers post over a month ago that works in the area and they stated the employer already had been planning for the worst, law enforcement had better come down hard and fast.

"They aren't kids. Many of them are in their 30’s and up.
I think you call them deadbeats without a purpose or professional protesters. Glenn Spagnuolo is 37."

We call them Coffeehouse and Used-records store staff!

Say nothing just attack isn’t even logical. I guess that’s because we aren’t mentally ill.
