What are uniformed field representatives of the Department of Justice (DOJ) Community Relations Service (CRS) doing assisting Occupy/anarchist activists outside the Republican National Convention (RNC) in Tampa?
Exclusive video captured by Breitbart News during Occupy/anarchist demonstrations outside the RNC Tuesday shows CRS field representatives, wearing DOJ logo polo shirts and hats, conversing with Occupy protesters. In one case, a CRS representative and protester are seen to high-five each other.
CRS representatives are also seen relaying specific instructions to the activists about the location of prearranged buses that were apparently taking them to their next scheduled demonstration.

I finally watched the video after I had pinged everyone...lol it was a little underwhelming. The whole thing smells kinda fishy though. Says the story is still developing. It is very much like Breitbart to hold some stuff back and wait on a response first. Given that the DOJ responded to the thing so fast( very unusual for them to respond to any conservative media or even republicans congressmen for that matter) makes me wonder what else may be coming. Something to keep in mind anyway.
They will all be getting together at the New Black Panther Stdium...(I mean Carolina Panthers Stadium)
I beg to differ. I find that these DOJ hacks flown down from DC are not only using my tax dime to consort with and assist the partisan anarchists and enemies of the Republic gathered in Tampa, but these fortunate public employees are getting a nice Florida vacation to boot, paid for by the taxpayers also.
I bet a lot of hardworking folks up north in economic hard-hit areas would sure give a lot to have the government pay for a week's hiatus with 3 fine squares a day and a nice Tampa Hotel......along with mandatory breaks here and there when they can head for the beach or do a little sightseeing.
After all, Holder's DOJ people deserve some recreational breaks from their arduous, exhausting, critical, dangerous street work ministering to the Occupiers and the anarchists.
Not too bad, working for Obama and Holder, is it!
And may I add, there's nothing like duplicating the work of the Tampa police officers patroling the streets, either.....officers working on a different tax dime, local, not federal like the DOJs.

The Community Relations Service is the Department's "peacemaker" for community conflicts and tensions arising from differences of race, color, and national origin. Created by the Civil Rights Act of 1964, CRS is the only Federal agency dedicated to assist State and local units of government, private and public organizations, and community groups with preventing and resolving racial and ethnic tensions, incidents, and civil disorders, and in restoring racial stability and harmony.
With passage of the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act, CRS also works with communities to employ strategies to prevent and respond to alleged violent hate crimes committed on the basis of actual or perceived race, color, national origin, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion or disability. CRS facilitates the development of viable, mutual understandings and agreements as alternatives to coercion, violence, or litigation. It also assists communities in developing local mechanisms, conducting training, and other proactive measures to prevent racial/ethnic tension and violent hate crimes committed on the basis of actual or perceived race, color, national origin, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, or disability. CRS does not take sides among disputing parties and, in promoting the principles and ideals of non-discrimination, applies skills that allow parties to come to their own agreement. In performing this mission, CRS deploys highly skilled professional conciliators, who are able to assist people of diverse backgrounds.
Obvioulsy they were in the wrong place. They should have been policing the media.
Heck! The OCCUPISTS will be ON STAGE!
Occupy IS Obama. So is Anonymous.

Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Does a bear shit in the woods?
