This group was also involved.

New York, NY, 07 March 2006

Two members of the PACE University SDS chapter were detained for an extended period by Secret Service agents on March 5th. Lauren Giaccone and Brian Kelly, members of the new Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) (named after the 60's group led by Tom Hayden), were detained for heckling former president Bill Clinton, calling him a "war criminal" for his ad hoc bombing-for-peace initiatives in Yugoslavia, the Sudan, Iraq and elsewhere. Clinton was speaking at the Pleasantville campus of PACE University in Westchester, NY.

So.....no one broke any laws in Denver?

The cops are doing fine. They have to protect the public wnd balance that with trying not to kill these criminals and get them off the streets.

No one here seems to grasp what WILL happen if ONE anarchist becomes mortally wounded....

I’d be very interested in who posts BAIL for those scumbags.

These people don’t know what brutality is. Twenty minutes alone with me will teach them.

There are some many good uses for liquid hog manure applied with great pressure and volume.
It is a very putrid substance with no ill effects.

Round them up and take them to Gitmo.

The problem is that they are not afraid to behave this way. They are confident that they will not have to endure any “excessive use of force,” just barely enough to get them out of the way. So they have little to lose, and it’s just playing for them, and they will be back every time.

We would be in a much more civilized society if these people could expect to have the crap beaten out of them or worse. It wouldn’t take too many examples, and almost all of them would learn to express their views peacefully or not at all.

Wow - thank you for all the detailed and damning information. This country is so close to being ruled by the commie thugs it is breathtaking.

I was with a “former” communist (friend of liberal sibling) last week. Nice person now. Really. But thinks of course that “Bush is a dangerous idiot”....who has gotten us into an unjust war....blah blah blah blah blah.

Thinks the association of Obama with Rezko was a mistake that Obama has now acknowledged and is repentant of...and that the Ayers association was minor and that, well, there was Kent state back in the 60’s....(in other words, the “oppression” of antiwar activists by the “pigs” who then became targets of the sds appeared “just” at the time..not saying that is was, in fact, just - but that it appeared to be so at the time....)

THIS is the thinking among much of the PBS listening public.

Obama’s communist roots are NOT ANYTHING LIKE THE PROBLEM of the repressive, warmongering, pro-bigoil, anti-earth policies of the “right wing” as led by Bush/Cheney/McCain.

This is what we face.

DEFUND NPR - my new tagline.

"5. Oppose the police and prison-industrial complex..."

Hey ETL - Didn't Ayers write a book advocating this same thing? I think it was the first time I heard this phrase...

The commie left wants to do away with the prison system entirely. Also with government surveillance... Now why would groups and individuals with a mindset of a Bill Ayers be against such things??...

From The Weekly Standard, 'Barack Obama's Lost Years', 08/11/2008:

"Ayers opposes trying even the most vicious juvenile murderers as adults. Beyond that, he'd like to see the prison system itself essentially abolished. Unsatisfied with mere reform, Ayers wants to address the deeper 'structural problems of the system.' Drawing explicitly on Michel Foucault, a French philosopher beloved of radical academics, Ayers argues that prisons artificially impose obedience and conformity on society, thereby creating a questionable distinction between the 'normal' and the 'deviant.' The unfortunate result, says Ayers, is to leave the bulk of us feeling smugly superior to society's prisoners. Home detention, Ayers believes, might someday be able to replace the prison. Ayers also makes a point of comparing America's prison system to the mass-detention of a generation of young blacks under South African Apartheid. Ayers's tone may be different, but the echoes of Jeremiah Wright's anti-prison rants are plain."

Where are our legions, we need to raise LEGIONS, these punk a$$ bit(hes have been getting away with everything. I am sick and tired of this crap. The police are Democrats and are to afraid of their Union bosses, don’t care or will not enforce the law because its too much paperwork. If we need to form a cordon around the delegates than &^%$#@! lets do so. These pipe cleaner arms pukes need to get knocked back and down.

National Lawyers Guild, a progressive legal organization founded in 1937 by lawyers opposed to the American Bar Association (ABA), which was then politically conservative and did not admit African Americans.

Early guild members included prominent liberals like Morris Ernst, New Dealers like Solicitor General Robert H. Jackson, African Americans like Charles Houston, and women like the radical labor lawyer Carol Weiss King. In addition, many members had ties to other reformist organizations, including the American Civil Liberties Union and the International Labor Defense.

Whereas in the 1930s the ABA supported property rights and laissez-faire, the guild championed New Deal economic and legal reforms, declaring that “human rights” should be “more sacred than property rights,” and the group accordingly supported President Franklin Roosevelt’s controversial court-packing plan.

Guild lawyers represented the Congress of Industrial Organizations during the 1937 sit-down strikes and in Hague v. Congress of Industrial Organizations (1939), which established workers’ free speech rights to use public streets to demonstrate and organize. The early guild also advocated legal aid for poor people. Government-supported legal aid did not appear until the 1960s, but some local guild chapters operated privately funded law clinics in the 1940s that helped nonelite attorneys gain a professional foothold, and brought legal help to people not otherwise able to afford it.

Thought I remembered that. Home detention is really going to be a deterrent, don't ya think?

God save us all.

[kinghorse]

Surprised the convention wasn’t counterfreeped. Pretty dangerous but 10,000 bikers might settle their ass down.

[kinghorse]

These cheese d$3ks shouldn’t be having the run of the place like that, assaulting convention goers.

PMR protester filing $1m+ claim for Mississippi-style harassment arrest in Grays Harbor

Tuesday, 01 January 2008

Chinn, a member of Students for a Democratic Society at The Evergreen State College

Philip Chinn, a member of SDS at Evergreen in Olympia, is filing charges against Police Chief Robert Torgerson, six Washington State Patrol troopers, the City of Aberdeen, the Grays Harbor Sheriff’s Office, and Grays Harbor County for harassment in a case involving a traffic stop allegedly for driving under the influence, a charge that was later dismissed.

— Chinn, a member of SDS at Evergreen, was on his way to the Grays Harbor PMR protest on May 6, 2007, when “a State Patrol trooper stopped the car near Central Park,” Jacob Jones reported. — “Chinn said he was driving slower than the speed limit and had no drugs or alcohol in his system. Chinn said he passed several sobriety tests but was arrested for driving under the influence.” —

According to Chinn and his attorney, Larry Hildes of Bellingham, police records show that the car was stopped because of an “attempt to locate” bulletin issued near Olympia as the car left town. — “Hildes said dispatcher logs state the State Patrol bulletin announced the car contained ‘three anarchists.’ He said he did not know how a trooper could have come to such a conclusion. ‘That’s not a crime last time I checked,’ said Hildes.” —

Although the state had no evidence against Chinn and although his case was dismissed with prejudice, “the arrest still shows up on Chinn’s record.”

Chinn is originally from Kent, WA, and was also involved in the Olympia PMR action in November....
