DON LEMON, CNN: First With Marc Lamont Hill, let's talk. You are in New York City. The gentleman there, he said he is up in Harlem. He's marching. He said listen, this generation, we have a voice and they don't want police brutality. He's got to get back to Staten Island. That's another issue. But we're looking, you know, at the protesters there. Is this a generational thing? Is this a young people's movement, Marc Lamont Hill?
MARC LAMONT HILL, CNN POLITICAL COMMENTATOR: It absolutely is. You know, Dr. King used to say when dogs bite us in Birmingham, we bleed everywhere. I mean, this is a reenactment of that practice, you know. Someone got hurt in Ferguson and we're bleeding everywhere. You see around the country protest. The protest chants in Ferguson last night was if we don't get it, shut it down.
You see people shutting down highways. You see people shutting down roads. You see people shutting down games and operas over the last few months. It's an exciting moment for young protesters. As again, the violence is one thing. And we can bracket that for a moment and talk about the 99.9 percent of the protesters who are trying to make change in the spectacle of protests and through organized action, cop watch programs, educational intervention, voter registration drives. This is what activism is like. This is what democracy looks like.
LEMON: Yes. This is what democracy looks like. You sound like you've been out there, Marc Lamont Hill, among protesters.

in daylight where people can see your signs. no cover of darkness for unseemly deeds.
When you have been programmed, instead of taught how to think and analyze, you are a part of the problem . The useful idiots in Russia who helped Communist to be birthed were mostly killed for their idealistic efforts.
As Saul Allinski said--it is all about power and money--forget about doing good. To gain both of those, the New Dem Party has to divide, propagandize, and incite the divisions. The news media, being Progressive believers (and also pre-programmed idiots from our "noble" Universities) are also among the manipulated masses, but believe themselves omnipotent.

Marc is an IDIOT reporting for an IDIOT Network.
This is what democracy looks like.
This is what the libtard disintegrated mode of thought of postmodernism and nihilism looks like.
This guy has always struck me as an extreme example of a douche bag.
And that is why we do not have one.
We have a representative republic.
He’s right that is what democracy looks like.
That’s why we have ( or had) a constitutional republic.
I haven’t seen any polls on Ferguson. Maybe we could have a national referendum?
“This Is What Democracy Looks Like”
Which is why our Founders abhorred democracy and gave us a Republic.
Lamont, you big dummy.
If this is what democracy looks like, maybe that’s the reason the Founders chose a republic.
This is what remaking America looks like.
Marc Lamont Hill is what racism looks like.
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep deciding what's for dinner.
No, this is what a 2/3 black city looks like.
Detroilet lite.
Which is why the United States is a representative republic and not a democracy.
Hill’s most annoying quality is his giggle - chortle when being interviewed.
There. Fixed it. c.f. Reichstag fire; Kristallnacht
MLH & Don Lemon are nuttier than a fruitcake.
In fact they ARE a couple of leftwing fruitcakes.
He’s absolutely correct. Democracy IS Mob Rule.
America was never set up as a Democracy.
