This is something being done by OUR SIDE!This is simply not acceptable, and the City and County of Denver ought to be ****ing ashamed. I live here, and I apologize in advance to these protesters for what's going to happen to them.WE'RE ALL FASCISTS NOW!Oh yeah, protesters at this event will include Code Pink. I know there are tons of Code Pink supporters on DU. Do you really feel comfortable with this?

liberalmuse (1000+ posts) Mon Aug-18-08 12:21 PMResponse to Reply #3 5. I don't think they will. Edited on Mon Aug-18-08 12:22 PM by liberalmuseProvacateers don't seem to get arrested. Just the peaceful liberals standing next to them. I think fascists have some sort of secret way of recognizing each other.on edit: I misunderstood the question, but think the answer above still applies.

These holding areas are only in the case of mass arrests due to a riot, NOT peaceful protests.There has to be some control of protesters. What if a group of fundies block all the entrances to the convention? Should they be allowed to? Should Obama be denied entrance due to the protesters? Should the convention be canceled due to a sit-in?There is always a chance people will go beyond peaceful demonstrations and cities have to have plans just in case. If they didn't, some people here would blast the city as incompetents afterwards.

cobalt1999 (1000+ posts) Mon Aug-18-08 12:37 PMResponse to Reply #10 12. Oh, you are an anarchist. Never mind the logical discussion points then.Everyone go crazy, block up all conventions, fight, burn, destroy, have at it folks. Anything else is fascism.

seabeyond (1000+ posts) Mon Aug-18-08 12:54 PMResponse to Reply #21 23. yes it looks like that. and what they did there was to the dem and was outrageous but that was the repug convention where a lot of angry dems protest against repugs. and cops continually stepped over line on that. but why are we saying this is an attack on dems. the dems wont be out there protesting to get their ass in jail, unfairly.i dont think they will be arresting any asshole repugs either.i dont get why they even have this fro the dem conventionit is the repug convention the arrests are made by majority repug cops that dont like dems speaking out
arcadian (1000+ posts) Mon Aug-18-08 01:19 PMResponse to Original message 28. It's bullshit, they are trying to create a "buzz". The protesters will be at the RNC. Maybe some at the DNC. The powers that be are trying to turn this into an event to take away from the Obama nomination. It's a dirty trick.But it's not "our side" doing it. It's local law enforcement and if you have ever been been to the Front Range cities of Colorado(save Boulder and Ned) you will know that they are mostly right-wingers inhabiting those areas.
originalpckelly (1000+ posts) Mon Aug-18-08 01:23 PMResponse to Reply #28 29. No, my friend, you are wrong. I live in Denver and that's how I know. Denver is solidly Democratic, the vast majority is blue, not red.It is our side, because Denver is controlled by Democrats. Our governor is also a Democrat. Our Representative in the House, Diana DeGette is also a Democrat.
This is something being done by OUR SIDE!
backscatter71231. **** the pigs.Nothing but a legalized gang of subhuman, sadistic Republican Gestapo thugs.I hope some of them get shot.Then we can cheer as they're throwing yet another bagpipe funeral parade to make false heroes out of them.
