Demonstrators at RNC

What am immature bunch of liberals protesting at the convention. I wonder how destroying property, etc... furthers their case. From the Boston Globe....
"Instead of a single coherent march that organizers had hoped for, fringe groups of anarchists and others wrought havoc along the streets between the state Capitol and the convention site.

Meanwhile, a group of about 100 anarchists pushed a Dumpster filled with trash and threw garbage in the streets and at cars. They also took down orange detour road signs. In hot pursuit were teams of riot officers carrying batons, rifles and guns that could be used to shoot tear gas.

The day’s march was organized by a group called the Coalition to March on the RNC and Stop the War, whose leaders said they hoped for a peaceful, family-friendly march. But police were on high alert after months of preparations by a self-described anarchist group called the RNC Welcoming Committee, which wasn’t among the organizers of the march."

From what I've been seeing on TV and reading, it's getting really bad.

Funny thing, though, (or sad) Fox News sent out someone with pictures of all the candidates (liberal and conservative presidential candidates, governors from LA, Florida, other people that are well known), and showed the pictures to the protesters. No one -- I repeat -- No one -- not one of the ones interviewed knew a single person in those pictures. That's sad. Really sad that people are 'protesting' something and someone they know absolutely nothing about. They can't even identify them in a photo.

Jay Leno does this sometime on his show. It's sad that our young people don't even know who is running and can't even identify them.

But yet -- they go out and protest -- and don't even know WHY they're protesting!!

They are, for the most part, hoodlums, They were at the democratic convention also. FYI you might want to look up anarchrists -- they have as much in common with "liberals" as those who bomb women's clinics and shoot clinic doctors and nurses do with "conservatives".

And people who kill/bomb will be arrested and tried.
