The last of the protesters, their numbers not coming close to matching organizers' hopes, cleared the area near the Xcel at 2:45 p.m. and headed back to the Capitol.
"Here it's totally different," said Sue Jiang, a Chinese national living in Brookings, S.D. "People here don't know how lucky they are." She said she was arrested in 2000 when she went back to Beijing and displayed a Falun Gong banner in Tiananmen Square. She said she spent 25 days in detention.

I wonder how much each of these ‘protestors’ has been paid for their ‘work.’

Arrest them all and hold them, and after the convention charge them and throw them in jail for ten years. Stop the catch and release theater that just makes them consider it a cheaper way of going to the movies.

“Bystanders said police were arresting protesters, all dressed in black with bandanas over their faces at 6th and Wall after they tried to block streets and fired paint balls at officers.”
WTH? Can you imagine if you or I shot at a cop with a paint ball gun?? The cop would return fire with a .45....why arent the cops returning fire with rubber bullets at a minimum????

Sounds like the Kollege Kiddie Krusaders are throwing another tantrum. I guess mom and pop forgot to load their debit cards before the big trip to St. Paul. You can’t buy dope without some money in the old account.

I’m so sick of these leftist, American-hating, bottom-feeding a**holes.
You know sometimes I wish we were more like the communist states these scumbags admire so much and would imprison or execute these morons.
Yes, I said the word execute. May be extreme to some here but I’m so fed up after 8 straight years of these lowlifes protesting everything good about this country!

They’re always real cagey about the sort of ‘change’ that they ‘hope’ for.
One can only imagine.

....so I guess these idiots have decided to protest war by beating on people and burning stuff. What’s next? Hows about having a hot dog eating contest to promote awareness of world hunger?

what does the GOP expect, holding the convention in the Peoples’ Republic of Minnesota?
Or, this could just be strategery, a means of showing the normal people of the U.S. the true face of the Dimocrat Party.
