Today I had the dubious privilege of attending a protest here in Denver. Recreate68 and several other protest groups organized a rally with speeches and music, followed by a protest march to the entrance to Pepsi Center, where the convention will be held. I have a number of videos and photos, but I wanted to post this one right away. I was able to capture an attack on a Fox News crew by the rabid crowd. I’m warning you now, the language is EXTREMELY FOUL.
I have much more to post later tonight, but I wanted to jet this one out as soon as it was ready.
These attackers were filled with hate for Fox News. They were enraged, moved to action. And Why? Because they think Fox is conservative. That’s it. That’s why.
These protesters claim to oppose war, but they are happy to conduct their own. They lust for a world where all will follow the same path. These protesters speak of freedoms, but they practice oppression. They speak of fairness, but they practice injustice. They speak of tolerance, but they act with hate. This is who marched on Denver today. This is who will march on Denver on all week.
Be wary, Denver. Say or do the wrong thing and you may just be silenced. Just like they tried to silence Griff Jenkins.

the funny(or sad rather) thing is...

It is because of people like this that the Dems:

(2) delay and short-change the funding for the soldiers in Iraq
(3) fight the confirmation of originalist judges with every dirty trick imaginable.

They made a political decision and so did Denver, Colorado by accepting the DNC. It may not be the fault of every single person in Denver, but it’s the city’s fault for letting these barbarians in the door. It’s also the Democratic Party’s fault for creating them. I say let them reap the whirlwind.

Those are all the messages
kowalski Sunday, August 24th at 8:08PM EDT (link)Those are all the messages the Democratic Party has gone out of its way to instill in its base over the past 8 years, and their base is overflowing with hatred. This isn’t 1968: there aren’t any flower children any longer — this isn’t about Make Love not War and tuning in, turning on and dropping out — these people are postmodern thugs, and the Democrat party has created them on purpose. I think they should at least be honest with themselves and let them do as they will.
The modern Democratic Party is all about Al Franken losing his temper and knocking people upside the head, throwing stones through windows and creating chaos. Well, Denver should let the children of the children of the ’60s have their way and warn the world.

BTW letting them toke up is a good move
kowalski Sunday, August 24th at 8:43PM EDT (link)BTW letting them toke up is a good move politically, because it’ll give them lots of motivation to stand in front of television cameras — stoned out of their minds — and talk about how stopthedrugwar.org isn’t very pleased with Obama’s VP choice. They were hoping for someone more “enlightened” — someone more like Obama himself, whatever that means.
So the stoners don’t like Biden but the silver lining in theri view is that by becoming Vice President, he would lose his authority over drug policies that they don’t like, because his boss would be more “enlightened.”
This is a rich vein of material and the RNC should be exploiting it to the hilt.

Great question. The libs are always the first ones to cry and whine about the First Amendment, so why, then, would they try to silence anyone else’s First Amendment rights? Oh, yeah, that’s right, because Fox News isn’t going to broadcast their idealogical stance. Silly me.

ukobserver Monday, August 25th at 7:44AM EDT (link)“Great question. The libs are always the first ones to cry and whine about the First Amendment, so why, then, would they try to silence anyone else’s First Amendment rights?”
I have to ask this, but when did they try to silence the guy fron Fox? He asked if he could interview them, and they didn’t answer. I didn’t know that the 1st Amendment meant that when you are asked for an interview by a NEWS REPORTER you had to answer them. You don’t even have to answer questions from the police or in court if you don’t wish to! When did Fox become so powerful in the US that refuesing to answer a request by a junior Fox reporter for an interview is now classed as denying HIM his 1st Amendment rights?
“Oh, yeah, that’s right, because Fox News isn’t going to broadcast their idealogical stance. Silly me.”
Oh dear!!! Fox news is supposed to be FAIR AND BALANCED!!! You do know that they actually put that front and centre everywhere right? And that they get their broadcasters and commentators to say that at every ad break. If they were Fair and Balanced as they like to proclaim you would think that they SHOULD be broadcasting their idealogical stance. The fact that the self-proclaimed “Fair and Balanced” network isn’t shows it to be Partizan and Biased. If they put that on the billboards they may get a bit more respect.
As for the Faux outrage at the language? To quote one Fox commentator “F* it, we’ll do it live!”
They don't have to watch it
bk Monday, August 25th at 8:01AM EDT (link)It’s a KnownFact that FNC is a bunch of right-wing hateful bigots who would starve poor people, deny old people medical care, lock up all illegals and dump them at the border, etc. Just like all Republicans.
Their version of free speech
bk Monday, August 25th at 8:06AM EDT (link)is a bit warped. For example, if some conservative speaker is invited to a college campus and these folks:
- Make implied threats of violence if such a hateful divisive person is allowed to appear
- Assault the speaker with pies or other hurled objects
- Disrupt the speech through screaming, running around, setting off fire alarms, etc.
then they would argue they’re just exercising their first amendment rights.
But if there is even the mildest sort of objection against any left-wing speaker, it’s the fascist right-wingers trying to suppress free speech. Same thing if campus police try to quell a riot from the first paragraph - it would be called gestapo cops trampling constitutional rights.

The worst kind of enemy
Rod_Patrick Monday, August 25th at 9:32AM EDT (link)Our enemy has adulterated the concept of “democracy”.
Saying that it’s just a case of political correctness is worst euphemism that any conservative can think of. These people have a dark agenda. Their anti-war rhetoric is not really anti-war… it’s anti-America and sadly, it’s Socialism in its true form.
Such anti-American spirit among these kind of Americans is actually coming from the fact that they are advocating for International Communism… whose main principle is anchored on the belief that “America is a Bully”. They are linked with the largest network of modern Socialism that is advancing in Latin America and Europe. Sadly, some UN agencies and NGOs are parties to this betrayal against America.

He said that one of the times he was assaulted by the “anarchists”, one of the people who came to his aid telling the thugs to leave him alone was Cindy Sheehan!

More physical threats to anyone with an opposing viewpoint. More manufactured rage and class hatred. More anti-free market propaganda. More calls for massive government-sanctioned redistribution of wealth. More protests against the Patriot Act and Gitmo while simultaneously demanding that government take away choice in education, health care, self-defense, transportation, and energy.
The collectivist brats are running loose in the streets of Denver and the Dems are incapable of providing any semblance of adult supervision.
