A recent meeting of the International Socialist Organization at Portland State University turned into a spectacle when a videographer showed up to record the event.
An open, on-campus meeting at the public-funded university was scheduled by the group on June 12, but organizers took exception when a person from the activist group Rage Against the Media showed up.
For some reason, police where already on hand and the organizers turned to them for relief, but none was forthcoming.

We dont allow right-wing bloggers to tape our events, an organizer said on camera, after police refused to intervene.
So attendees instead formed a human blockade around the person, who was quietly recording their actions.
While not clear why, the meeting is eventually brought to an end, to the dismay of those in attendance. As the facility emptied out, some chanted, Harassment isnt free speech the irony of their choice of words being lost on them.
According to the socialist organizations website, it seeks to provide a socialist alternative for students looking beyond the capitalist system for the change they would like to see in the world [and] to inform students of current events (from a Marxist perspective) and educate them on the history of working class struggle and political theory.
Sounds a lot like communism.

“Sounds” a lot like communism?
Surely you are mistaken? (sarc)
right wing bloggers...bawk bawk....right wing bloggers
what a courageous bunch of slimey occupiers
I’m glad that this is getting more press. Those commie losers need more exposure.
Liberals are nothing but fascists.
Outstanding video! These communists and socialists think they have a right to filter who attends their public meeting at a public institution.
Are you the photographer/blogger? Would like to thank whomever.
It makes someone wonder what they were going to say if there was no one recording it.
It has been almost 4 years since Michelle Bachmann was in our city for a campaign appearance. A group of young college students and ne’er do wells seated themselves at the front and pretended to be supporters. After MB started speaking, an instigator in the group stood up and started reading a manifesto. The rest of the group, about 20, stood up and started chanting something. After about 10 minutes, police asked them to leave and they did, after disrupting the meeting.
I have wonder pictures of the perps and would like to post them on a web site so they can be identified, their future employers can be forewarned, and their families can be proud of them.
Should this youthful leftist disruption be excused?
Hayak had two labels:
Liberals
and
collectivists.
These are FAR MORE accurate than "liberal vs. conservative".
In my mind, "Tea Party" = Liberty minded
and
Dem-party and GOP-elite are collectivists.
I think there is a lot to see in this video...These delusional morons are actually condemning behaviors AS they are practicing them....Its the next step past spin....into the arena of public bold faced lying .....imo
The photographer might have been allowed to stay if he had worn a Che T-shirt.
My guess for back-in-the-day comparisons was Hitler’s Brown Shirts.
What were they going to say, if the camera wasn't there?
Notice how it's always the left that wants to scream, interrupt, talk over, and shut down anyone who disagrees with them? But at the same time, they don't want any one to know what they really believe.
Bump
Killing for the money, the glorification.
I love the lying piece of vermin that tells the cop the photographer was being aggressive.
These people are worse than animals. At least a dog knows to have shame.
Probably a gleeful prediction that they will have to re-educate or eliminate 25 million resistors in order to achieve their socialist utopia.
Only 25 million? Pol Pot had to eliminate a quarter of the population of his country, for its own good of course. What else are you going to do with them? They can’t just be allowed to run free creating all kinds of capitalism.
