Scourge Posted September 2, 2004 Posted September 2, 2004 What about the undercover NYC detective that was beat to a pulp by protesters and unconscious in a hospital. Quote
Stonehead Posted September 2, 2004 Posted September 2, 2004 "I fail to see how terrorists present anything like as big a threat to liberty in America as you guys do by passing this kind of legislation. The founding principles of this republic are not being defended where they need to be defended."  --quote from interview with John Perry Barrow in ReasonOnline (The Thomas Jefferson of cyberspace reinvents his body -- and his politics.)  BTW, here's what he had to say about Kerry:  I had a conversation with Kerry. It was pretty disheartening. I asked how he felt about civil liberties. He said, "I’m for ’em!" That’s great, but how do you feel about Section 215 of the Patriot Act? He said, "What’s that?" I said, it basically says any privately generated database is available for public scrutiny with an administrative subpoena. He says, "It says that?" I say, "You voted for it!" Quote

snugtop Posted September 2, 2004 Posted September 2, 2004 From the same article: Â In one incident Tuesday, on the steps of the New York Public Library, protesters who were not trying to cause any disturbance - though they did not have a permit - ended up in a 15-minute melee with police, prompting rows of officers in helmets, clubs in hand, to form a phalanx on the steps. The officers moved in unison, chanting "Move, move, move." One uniformed officer swung his club wildly at protesters and at journalists, trying to force them back. Quote

If they are a smart as they say they are, they would have realized this. If a cop tells you to move, MOVE DUMBASS! If you get your shit beat because you are engaging in an illegal activity, a cop tells you to stop and you do not, don't ask for my sympathy. I will just piss in your wounds. Quote
Billygoat Posted September 2, 2004 Posted September 2, 2004 Geez. Mike is in his Honeycomb Hideout fighting Sleestack liberals. I kinda picture some little kid with his Daisy Red Ryder in a fort made of sofa cushions and bedsheets hoped up on Kellog's Frosted Flakes on a rainy Saturday morning. Â You need a time out Mike. You too Greg... Quote
scott_harpell Posted September 2, 2004 Posted September 2, 2004 and i notice the article makes a point of saying that they 'tried not to make a disturbance.' One could extrapolate that they were then creating a disturbance, no? Quote

Cpt.Caveman Posted September 2, 2004 Posted September 2, 2004 First if they are going to assemble they should do so without fucking it up for others. Â Second - Those comments about cops saying "move" and swinging clubs - standard operating procedure. What part didn't the morons get? Jeez. Also if they don't have a permit then - guess what ? It aint legal. Quote
AlpineK Posted September 2, 2004 Posted September 2, 2004 Lots of things are illegal. It should be the polices job to enforce those things that are actually causing a problem. Â I've seen you do some illegal shit cavey...maybe I should report you. Quote

And if not that then I'll stomp him like a banana slug. And shit down your throat... Quote
gotterdamerung Posted September 2, 2004 Posted September 2, 2004 I'll take you up on that offer. How about tomorrow morning at 7am? Quote

Gimme a break.  Warning a bunch of morons to leave and wondering why sticks are getting swung at them because they are harrassing the public in this sort of manner is fuckin funny. Quote
AlpineK Posted September 2, 2004 Posted September 2, 2004 I'm serious I'm calling the cops right now. Quote
gotterdamerung Posted September 2, 2004 Posted September 2, 2004 I'm in the PNW. I guess that makes it OUR time. Quote
ChrisT Posted September 2, 2004 Posted September 2, 2004 Â y'all taking this shit waaaaaaay too seriously. Nothing better than a good old fashioned protest I say - don't really care what side yer on. That's the beauty of America! Quote
Billygoat Posted September 2, 2004 Posted September 2, 2004 How Special. Â How bad do you want to touch me...? Quote

ChrisT Posted September 2, 2004 Posted September 2, 2004 I totally support the protestors in NYC and I wish I was there along side them. I miss the anti-war protests of last year and I marched in two - SF and Portland. At least you can't accuse them of apathy! Quote
