Clash? No murders?


The DNC is working for the Clampdown.

Most of the DNC isn’t even happening downtown, it’s at the United Center (West Side) or McCormick Place (South Side). Protesters would get little exposure and no civic disruption protesting there, so they are protesting downtown, randomly, outside a train station that has nothing to do with the DNC, since at least then they can annoy commuters.

It’s a lost cause explaining things like this to a certain crowd of people. They keep talking about “military tribunals” even though those have been ruled unlawful for civilians for over 150 years now.

The most violence that I’ve seen this week is when some pipsqueak thug spit on a big burly bus driver and we had an old fashioned righteous beat down.

It was heartwarming until you found out the one whose actions were justified was the one who got arrested.

No mention of billy clubs nor water cannons? I like water cannons.
