U.S. Secret Service officers shut down a student-led protest calling for President Obama to fire Attorney General Eric Holder this morning, according to a report from in front of the White House. After discovering a “suspicious package,” the Secret Service ended the protest. “Several agents seemed hostile to our march and seemed anxious for us to leave the area,” Maurice Lewis, a University of California student, told Campus Reform . “The discover[y of] the ‘unidentified package’ came just as the protest began gain traction.”

They should have called themselves “Occupiers.” Then they would have been allowed to stay, been provided with food and water, and the media would have supported them. Oh, the hypocrisy of this administration is just so...transparent!

Maybe everyone should bring a suspicious package, and everyone wear those Groucho glasses/nose/mustache things! Better than hoodies!

It seems the hookers already arrived at the hotel and they're on the clock.

I'm trying to find out why they wouldn't allow them to resume protest. People were going in and out of surrounding buildings. This is obviously a shake down.

The ‘adjutant’ looks a little like W and the SS Chief like Anderson Cooper.

Do you mean the March for Justice (Oct. 31, 1998)? It was shown on C-SPAN but I assume C-SPAN’s vehicles or cameras would be easily identified.

Ah...Waco defined what they do to those dangerous Seventh Day Adventists with suspicious packages.
I am pleased that there are patriotic college students in Kalifornia.

“Suspicious package” or maybe just a takeout bag from Mickey Ds?

United Soviet States.

Nonsense. This is EXACTLY what we should have expected once we started down the slippery slope of exchanging liberty for security. Of course the TYRANTS will use it against us, their enemies. That's precisely why the founders limited the powers of the federal government.

“U.S. Secret Service officers shut down a student-led protest”

They had other places to be: the Georgetown Starbucks Titty bar.

The SS does have the authority to remove and isolate certain groups, if they see potential for a security situation, but the fence and the razor wire were a little much.

The only time I saw anything like that, kinda, was when protesters at a Marilyn Manson concert were confined to an area away from the concert, so as not to infringe on those attending it. I thought that was odd at the time.
