He stopped, shook my hand and thanked me.

Let me guess: "You're a Great American."

I drove by St. Paul today to be a tourist and visit the fabulous houses on summit hill and also to visit St. Paul’s cathedral.

I concur with your description that the excel center is cordonned off for 2-3 blocks in all directions.

Delegates are mostly taking shuttle buses from downtown Minneapolis.

Thanks for the info! Please keep writing. First hand stories always seem to be more interesting and real. Funny you saw wildlife/game officers there. I guess they expect the lib protesters to act like wild animals!

Next time you see Alan Colmes, tell him to get a hair cut! 8^)(just kidding)

BTW, conservative women are better looking (and smelling) than libs!

Honestly, I’ve found the convention to be like I would expect to find any swarm of tourists - annoying. West 7th St. is shut down, which has been a pain for me, and I’m sick of giving people directions to the Mall of America. There’s a lot else here besides some giant crappy mall.

First person reports are always more interesting than the MSM reports - so thanks.

Actually glad to know the security is so tight. It needs to be.

Hello,

just got back from watching all of the protests today, I am currently uploading the photos and will share when it is complete.

A few things I saw today:
*A dumpster tipped over and lit on fire by a group of 40 in all black.
*A cop car hit with a bag of shit, then the back window broken out with a piece of concrete.
*A lot of smelly people, my god people, take a shower.
*What appeared to be a delegate bus hit with bags urine.
