So, lets sum this up: A caravan of SEIU buses receive a Metropolitan (D.C.) Police Department escort to a private home in Maryland where the protesters, from all appearances, violate Montgomery County law by engaging in a stationary protest. The Montgomery County police were not informed by their cross-jurisdictional colleagues of the impending, unusually large protest pending in their jurisdiction.
Whats up with that? Had the mob decided to torch the house, the D.C. police would not have been authorized to intervene. Not their jurisdiction. Theyre just escorts. Meanwhile, a teenage boy is home alone, frightened by whats happening outside his front door. [BE SURE TO READ THE ARTICLE AT THE LINK FOR MORE INFO.]
Theres something very wrong with this picture.

my question too
The GOP we are told are the ones supported by the billionaires and millionaires and yet all I see is the likes if Soros, Buffett, and hollywood using their money plus groups like SPLC,move on, ,SEIU, etc and then they have the media and then on top of that they are using their money and power to ruin this country while I ask, where on earth are those on the right with our activist on the street protest websites, money men and women ,etc
They have groups like KOS , move on and the rats go to them for debates etc while what does the GOP run too for their base ???
At a minimum the garden hose should have been deployed by the homeowner and a good watering of the lawn and rinsing of the porch, driveway, and sidewalk commenced -anyone not moving would get wet -oh well...
What the EFF are these bastards doing on private property? Oh, wait, our President doesn’t believe in private property...

Anyone with any sense of history can see what’s coming: the fall of this Republic - and if we are victorious, the rebuilding of a new one. But not without a terrible, terrible cost.
All of our lives are about to change. Irrevocably.
Hyman Roth: What I am saying is, we have now what we have always needed, real partnership with the government.
After a fair trial, of course; roughly along the same lines as the fair trial they afforded this B of A Exec.
“I guess youve never heard of Barney Frank or CRA...”
Yes. One is a criminal and the other is criminal.

If a DC cop is escorting protesters outside of his jurisdiction, is he still considered a cop, or just an armed thug who can be engaged under the Castle Doctrine?
Not quite like a full-fledged Communist regime, where the police would have taken him away in the dead of night.
This was more like Chavez’s Venezuela, where the government’s hired thugs are enabled and protected by the state police.
LOL / I was thinking just that.
According to an other poster, they are an affiliate branch of SEIU.
So, the reason the cops didn't respond is that the protestors were cops.
The police are NOT your friend.
Wow, I always wondered what it would be like to live in a communist nation. Now I’m getting to know.
Maryland Freak State ping
We’re living through a tragic farce.
They should also find out whether the DC police personnel trespassed on the property in addition to providing the escort.
