Protesters disperse, only to blockade again
Denver Post ^ | 8-24-2008 | Chuck Plunkett and George Watson

Posted on 08/25/2008 4:00:27 PM PDT by MtnClimber

A group of Democratic National Convention protesters have been gathering to block major arteries in downtown Denver, moving each time as police demand they disperse.

First the marchers blocked traffic at the intersection of Broadway and Colfax Avenue and briefly refused to move.

The protesters, chanting, "no more presidents, no more wars," disrupted traffic along both streets as police tried to move them into either Civic Center or Lincoln Park.

After 10 minutes or so, police gave an order to disperse, and the group barely moved.

Several officers on horseback arrived and began moving the crowd out of the street.

"Double wide!," one officer ordered, and police lined up to move protesters.

Just as it appeared they would disperse peacefully, a small group of about eight protesters ran into traffic on Lincoln Street and sat in the street. They chanted "our streets!" in front of Capitol.

I hope that jail is big enough. Then again they could send them to Sheriff Joe’s tent city in Phoenix. A little warm this time of year. Hahahaha.

"DECLARE IT NOW! WEAR ORANGE!"

"The World Can’t Wait--Drive Out the Bush Regime

Go online to worldcantwait.org for breaking news and info on protests in Denver during the Democratic National Convention."
http://rwor.org/

__________________________________________________________

FYI: World Can't Wait--Drive Out the Bush Regime is a Maoist-revolutionary movement/organization initiated and controlled by the Revolutionary Communist Party. (scroll down the list that appears (after clicking link) to find the World Can't Wait organization --rwor.org is the website of the Revolutionary Communist Party):
http://rwor.org/a/rwlink/links.htm

From David Horowitz's FrontpageMag.com /DiscoverTheNetworks.org:
Profile: World Can't Wait (WCW)

*Revolutionary communist movement that stages protests against the Bush administration

*Organizes college and high-school students

*Founded in June 2005 by Charles Clark Kissinger, a longtime leader of the Revolutionary Communist Party

http://www.discoverthenetworks.org/groupProfile.asp?grpid=7213

From the website of the Revolutionary Communist Party (revcom.us or rwor.org) :
"Create Public Opinion, Seize Power: We are preparing minds and organizing forces for the time when there is a major crack in the system, whenever it comes and wherever it comes from: an opening that makes it possible to bring the future Revolutionary Army of the Proletariat (R.A.P.) into the field and wage a revolutionary armed struggle that actually has a chance of winning. And we have said that building our party itself is the most important part of organizing forces for revolution. This is true now, and it is true looking forward to the creation of that future R.A.P. and the waging of that armed struggle.":

These protest are embarrassing. As someone who lived through the 60/70 protests these idiots should be ashamed.
What a bunch of wimps.

They chanted “our streets!” in front of Capitol.


As a semi-sane resident of the Peoples Unrepublic of Portland, I would like to give a big “THANK YOU” to the city of Denver for volunteering to provide a summer camp experience for thousands of demented rabid moonbats and anarchists thereby cleansing our streets of some of these pukes. Please lock em up for a few years.

So true.

This is more of an ‘event’ at which to be seen than any kind of ‘protest’.

“Join me in Denver for the big ‘08 See-in’”.

Wussies indeed!

“What a bunch of wimps. “

Yea! Wussie commies.

IMUS had a moment of clarity today and said if you’re going to protest, light something on fire and break something. Otherwise forget it.

I stumbled on this gem...a protest group walks by and the comment is hilarious!

It’s about 50 seconds in.

It’s amazing how mounted officers can move a crowd.
You can argue with an officer but you can’t argue with
a horse.

Thanks for the link. Here's a photo from the site. As you can see they have that "orange" (Revolutionary Communist Party) thing going on again.

"Why did it take a bunch of Arabs to do what you all should have done a long time ago?"

August, 2003: Ward Churchill Caught On Tape Advocating Terrorism [vs Fellow Americans]

Audio link at Michell Malkin's website (included below)

Question from audience:
You mentioned a little bit ago, "Why did it take a bunch of Arabs to do what you all should have done a long time ago," that's my question.

Churchill: I'm gonna repeat that, tell me if I got that right: Why shouldn't we do something and how do you you move so they don't see you coming.

As to the first part, not a reason in the world that I could see. I can't find a single reason that you shouldn't in a principled way —there may be some practical considerations, such as do you know how (laughter from audience)

—you know, often these things are processes. It's not just an impulse. And certainly it's not just an event.

And the simple answer, although it probably should be more complicated, but I'm not being flip and giving the simple answer, is:
You carry the weapon. That's how they don't see it coming. You're the one...

They talk about "color blind or blind to your color." You said it yourself.

You don't send the Black Liberation Army into Wall Street to conduct an action.

You don't send the American Indian Movement into downtown Seattle to conduct an action.

Who do you send? You. Your beard shaved, your hair cut close, and wearing a banker's suit.

There's probably a whole lot more to it, you know that. But there's where you start..."

more...
