Denver Protesters Will Be Warehoused in Cages — CBS Affiliate Report
By SusanUnPC on August 13, 2008 at 4:00 PM in 1st Amendment, Bolshevikization, Democratic National Convention
“Gitmo on the Platte”
“A sign on the wall reads ‘Warning! Electric stun devices used in this facility’.”
You know what? We may have to set up a legal defense fund for the PUMAs and others who will be protesting outside the convention center. What concerns me is that they could be arrested and detained for the slightest reason — perhaps no reason at all. “The One” cannot bear any protestations from anyone. (It is well-known that people with narcissistic tendencies are incapable of coping with dissent, especially ridicule.)
Do not miss this video of the “warehouse” where protestors will be caged en masse.
From the CBS affiliate in Denver:
CBS4 News has learned if mass arrests happen at the Democratic Convention, those taken into custody will be jailed in a warehouse owned by the City of Denver. Investigator Rick Sallinger discovered the location and managed to get inside for a look.”
Jeralyn at TalkLeft.com has more. From her story, “Denver to House Mass Arrestees in Cages in Warehouse“:
Denver's CBS4 News reporter Rick Salinger scores an exclusive on Denver's plans for arrested protesters in the event of mass arrests — as proof, he and his camera people got inside and shot this video before being asked to leave.
The facility is a city owned warehouse.
Inside are dozens are metal cages. They are made out of chain link fence material and topped by rolls of barbed wire.
“This is a secured environment,” Capt. Frank Gale of the Denver Sheriff's Department told CBS4. “We're concerned about how that's going to be utilized by people who will be potentially disruptive.”
Jeralyn reminds us of the “fiasco” in Manhattan during the GOP’s 2004 convention:
This is reminiscent of Manhattan's Pier 57 dubbed Guantanamo on the Hudson, during the 2004 Republican convention. It was a fiasco that ended with a judge ordering the release of 470 protesters or face fines of $1,000. per prisoner per day. Here's one detained protester's story. More details of the grimy conditions are in this AP article.
Will Denver make the same mistakes? Hopefully not, but Salinger's discovery is not promising news. There are ways to avoid this, I recapped several from the ACLU report on Pier 57 here.

Rumors Colin Power to endorse Obama and could be Obama’s VP
Fox just reported that via Bill Kristol
Fat chance it’ll be his VP. As for endorsing him: after Powell’s spectacle at the UN please be my guest. I lost all respect for Powell then.
What is FAR more interesting is that Chuck Hagel decided (after that recent trip with Obama…)
NOT to endorse Obama nor McCain (we knew about the McCain the news is NO Obama endorsement from Hagel)
http://thepage.time.com/2008/08/12/spokesman-hagel-wont-endorse-either/
That is extremely interesting considering he was on the short list, and with all their travelling and secret meetings I thought for sure Obama was going to announce he was his VP choice. Wonder what happened on the trip to make him rethink his support of Obama and I wonder who will feed him his Republican talking points now?
THANK YOU CHUCK
I really LIKED HIM! I’m so glad I don’t have to give HIM UP TOO!
whew! If Hagel was picked by McCAIN!!!! Now I’d jump at the chance to vote for that bravely honest ticket! Yep , Yep!
NO to POWELL
he bold face lied on NATIONAL TV
(fricken MO-BILE wmd labs my PUMA ASS)
he has disgraced himself (imo)
(pardon my french)
“I do not have time to waste on Bill Kristol’s musings,” Powell told ABC News. “I am not going to the convention. I have made this clear.”
After telling ABC News by phone that he would not be going to the Democratic National Convention, Powell ended the conversation without entertaining any follow-up questions as to whether he would be crossing party lines to endorse Obama.
I find the idea of Colin Powell endorsing Barack Obama very hard to believe. Colin Powell, as much as anyone else on the planet today, should appreciate the dangers of having someone as experienced as Barack Obama as president. Plus, Powell is a friend of John McCain’s and is, ostensibly at least, a Republican.
I will be shocked if this rumor actually turns out to be true. But if it is, then it will be a huge boost for Obama, no doubt.
Sorry, should read ” … the dangers of having someone as INexperienced as Barack Obama as president.”
Well, Obama HAS to pick somebody and everybody else has said said “No” so far. I’d be embarrassed for Powell if he said Yes.
Powell has already confessed to being embarrassed by his U.N. speech he gave for Bush; surely he doesn’t want a repeat of that.
Well Obama needs Colin Powell. I hope that Colin Powell has enough sense and is as good a person as I have held him to be for years now and turns any and all offers down from his ONENESS.
As I’ve stated on the other thread, I wouldn’t believe not one word out of Bill Kristol’s mouth until you hear it from Colin Powell or one of his people directly.
Bill Kristol has always been a McCain supporter and The Weekly Standard writers are definitely happier this time around. The National Review faction is more President Bush’s group.
Bill Kristol quoted someone telling someone else telling someone…do you understand? Well, the point is that he didn’t hear Powell say it directly.
If Powell does, it is his choice. It will prove again that race trumps everything. However, I won’t go there until I see or hear him say he supports Obama.
He maxed out his contribution support for John McCain. Something isn’t adding up here folks.
Colin Powell didn’t run for president, supposedly because his wife was afraid he’d be assassinated. Does she think he’d be that much safer as VEEP?
IMO no one with half a brain cell working will take the Obama veep bait. His failure aura is really starting to shine strong.
Black pride is blinding most blacks. Everytime I listen to talk radio I hear blacks calling in essentially saying the same thing - “this is the first time we have had a chance to elect a black president and that is why we are voting for him.” In other words they are racist and Obama’s credentials are secondary or do not matter at all. All of the programs implemented over the last two generations seem to have increased blacks appetite for basing decisions entirely on race. These programs have proved to be utter failures.
Yeah, it sure was better in the old days when people had a simple choice between “the white guy” and “the other white guy”. Now, remind me again, were white people “blinded by race” in every other presidential election when, in a country consisting largely of non-white people, they’ve consistently used their demographic majority in a way that’s failed to produce a non-white major party nominee? Are males “blinded by their gender” since they vote overwhelmingly for male presidential candidates? Black voters voting for a black guy makes no less sense than people voting for a candidate from their home state, or the South, or other ancestry (Jews vote for Lieberman, Italians for Giuliani). Nobody questions that. Nobody’s bothered by that. But the drum that conservatives are beating now is, vote for this guy on the basis of his and your common background and it’s not just a bad choice, it’s a character flaw. Nice little double standard you got there. And what’s worse is this two cent reverse baiting is being deployed against an imminently beatable powder puff like BO. Every time I think I can hold my nose and vote for the GOP, one of you speaks and I think, if these guys are the best bet the country has, let it burn.
Racist.
…and thus your argument reverts to parody, and the only response you can muster is serious word reduced to an empty ad hominem. How are you guys different from the Dems again?
How are you different from Wright, Phleger, Meeks, Moss, Farrakhan, and Ayers?
Ray-
I think you’re talking about identity politics. If you’re making the case that groups naturally vote for a candidate with whom they identify, based on ethnicity, religion, gender, what have you - election results prove otherwise.
In Philadelphia, if Center City Jews had voted in a bloc for Sam Katz, Philly would have had Mayor Katz for eight years, instead of John Street. I guess I blew it by not voting for the Mondale/Ferraro ticket, since Geraldine is an Italian-American female, as am I. Voters don’t necessarily flock to the one whom they see as the “same” as them.
I expected Powell to endorse Obama for a long time, it demonstrates how much blacks are in the tank for Obama. If Powell is on the ticket as VP then Powell has lost all respect and will go out of his life as a loser.
This is just a silly theory.
I have a great respect for Powell. He will absolutely not support such a nobody as Obama. Bush and his people tricked him into the speech at the UN. He regrets it despite it wasn’t his fault. Why on earth would he endorse Obama? Why on earth would he want to be VP when he didn’t want to be President?
From all I am hearing from blacks is that Obama equates to black pride. My understanding is that 80% of Republican blacks will vote for Obama. I am expecting Powell to endorse Obama for the same reasons — he wants to have a black president. I don’t think Powell wants to be a VP. Powell was considering a run for president in 1996 with the Republicans but decided not to go through with it even though he had a very good chance of winning the nomination and getting elected.
Powell’s got some dirty hands, in small but embarassing ways, all the way back to the first attempted cover-up of My Lai.
Added to his wife’s distaste for electoral politics and his attenuated credibility pursuant to his UN speech, I think he’ll keep busy without jumping into the snakepit.
Not to mention that, if the economy tanks again (likely) the guys with their hands on the levers will take the heat from the people, despite the fact that it was Republicans whose regime let the foxes guard the henhouses.
If ObamaYoMamma is in the WH, it’s gonna be His Fault.
No SANE man would want to be near the place from 1st quarter 2009 through second quarter 2010.
Barack Obama/Collin Powell ‘08
YOu know i hate to admit it but that is a fantastic ticket.
Its absolutely sensational.
I could put asside all my worries and fears about obama, all my dissappointments about Hillary’s campaign and fall in line fully behind an Obama/Powell ticket.
Its Fuckin BRILLIANT!!
OMFG
Obama + Powell, yeah…i can see that happening.
…
It has about as much chance of success as a
Hillary Clinton / Barbra Streisand Ticket
…
Is Colin Powell a supporter of Reverend Wright, or is he one of these low information voters who votes for pigmentation above all else?
Omigosh, there really are 57 States, acording to The All Knowing and Chosen One on HillaryClinton.com 8/3/08
http://www.hillaryclinton.com/news/release/view/?id=7913
Wow!
On HillaryClinton.com
Per THE CANDIDATE
As a candidate for the nomination, I supported the DNC’s efforts to establish and enforce a schedule for primaries and caucuses that would broaden the opportunity for Democrats from all regions of the country and all backgrounds and walks of life to have a meaningful voice. An unprecedented number of voters participated in our Democratic nominating process. We all owe a debt of gratitude to Governor Dean for his principled leadership during this long and challenging process.
How do I get my money back?
This is sickening.
Is this Hillary’s web site or one of the No Deal Coalition’s? It looks like satire to me.
HILLARY
No you DIDnt!
:-((
I’m PUMA, however, there ARE 56 states and territories: the 50 states, plus the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the Northern Mariana Islands, Guam, the US Virgin Islands and American Samoa.
Are you serious? You have to be joking!
The police in Denver have been gearing up for this for over a year. And hundreds of cops from all over Colorado are coming to help.
Denver cops are not the warm and fuzzy types, if you know what I mean.
Dealing with so much gang violence, random violence and disregard for the law has made our cops scary mean. So if you’re coming to protest, be warned.
Personally, I’m leaving town.
But what will be the going bond/bail rate for me?
Wow.
Kudos to that investigative team for actually doing some reporting…at the end of the clip they said it was supposed to have been kept a secret.
As for the ACLU - you’d think they’d be all over this, wouldn’t you? Oh no, they’re just “asking” the city of Denver about food, water, attorneys, etc. I hope this is just their preliminary salvo, the “asking” part. (I can’t help but imagine if someone wanted to erect a manger scene in the middle of downtown Denver the ACLU would have already filed fourteen lawsuits against the city.)
In any case, some of us remember the chant from the 1968 convention: The whole world’s watching! How will scenes of middle-aged women being tasered and dragged off to cages play in Peoria?
Probably about as well as images of the civil rights protesters having the firehoses trained on them.
If the Obama camp wants any credibility about “unity” at all, they need to speak out about this. And fast.
We get decent news from our local tv channel also.
Its the 3 big cable stations CNN, MSNBC AND FOX that do such a poor poor job.
I actually think that the flames of hatred for women has been fanned so high that if female protesters are tasered, assaulted, and bludgeoned on live TV the mainstream media will report that they had it coming and the Obama thugs will cheer it on. I think there is very little left of core human sympathy or empathy among the Obama sociopath class and their MSM enablers.
Amen! I am sick of the sanctimonious @$$h*les who say they represent a “democratic” party. What a pile of hoo-ey! They wudn’t understand that word if it came up and bit ‘em. They are lying sacks of crap.
As for Powell, who cares, another war monger
His (CP”S) wife maybe okay with the VP … figures that Collin wouldn’t be the one in the crosshairs … that presumably was her big fear. She seems too classy for MOBO though ….
You’re a fucking idiot. Colin Powell is one of the very few people alive today (McCain being another) that I could enthusiastically support for president.
Know we know why the caged bird sings.
If we don’t electroshock them in ages over there, we’ll have to electroshock them in cages over here…
No shit, it’s beyond depressing.
And why does this not surprise me?
Sick this is real sick. And then the Obama camp laughing at seeing all the Puma’s behind these cages!!
The ROAR if that happens will be deafening and they’ll have seen nothing to compare come November.
Try to get a clue. They out us behind barbed wire in Washington DC in the Spring of 1970. No arraignmnets, no shitters, no medical, lots of stick work and boots.
End of the day, they opened the gates and let us go.
Didn’t see any Cronkite, Huntley or Brinkley or any other MF’er shedding any tears for us 38 years ago.
It may be what is needed to wake people up. I have said all along that Clinton supporters and PUMA needed feet on the ground demonstrating. It was Sharpton’s threats of massive demonstrations that got the DNC and SDs in line to give in to Obama. No threats of demonstrations ever came out of the Clinton camp. This made the decision of the DNC and top Democratic leaders easy in casting their support behind Obama since it was widely felt that Clinton supporters were sheep that would just fall in the Obama line.
Oftentimes decisions are made based on placating the group that will most likely demonstate.
I’ve heard that to offset the cost of the cages that they will have vending machines around the perimeter dispensing PUMA feed! 25 cents for a handful of pellets!
Sad…very sad.
Where did you hear that, Witch Doctor, from your Obama media?
what makes you think those animals in the cages will be PUMA?
It could be the RATS of Wright and Pfleger’s BLT Minions of HATE!!!
or the even MORE organized and hateful FaraDeCON cockroaches!
They would be more apt to get violent or do something heinously illegal as that is their MO right? (oops MO you know which one I meant right?)
don’t confuse yourself too much, the whole WORLD knows who’s gonna get dirty and violent first! I just hope they get it on TAPE!!! So those doing it can be prosecuted to the FULLEST extent!!!
Everyday I despise that monster AKA Nobama and his troll army more and more!
PUMA!!!!
CNN just reported Warner will be Keynote Speaker…thinks this will win him Virginia
Still be a tough sell.
The US DoD is the largest single employer in the Old Dominion. Makes ‘em pretty conservative.
Kaine Says Russians “Complied With” Obama’s Request for a Ceasefire; Tanks Continue Rolling Into Gori
August 13, 2008 7:44 AM
“
I guess Putin missed the Obama memo.
That blue-eyed white devil Putin!
STOP THE HATE!!!!!!
Of course! It is a city planned and created facility, in a city owned warehouse, conceived by the city’s officials to deal with what they think might happen! But it must be that evil scary Obama behind it all! That devious bastard! Subverting and controlling the entire city government AND the police department! He is one nefarious guy!
Troll.
This is horrendous… The DNC has no shame and the Obama camp no decency.
The idea of getting “cages” sounds as pathetic as Rendell’s idea of founding “hounds”….
I have no doubt the Obama camp has the JSND & Pumas in mind… The media is miss-characterizing left and right the JSND & Pumas intentions at the convention. There is an article at the New York Observer :
Defiant Clinton Women Refuse To Support Obama. High-Class Hillraisers Still Irate About Barack: ‘She Will Be Nominee’ by Jason Horowitz | August 12, 2008
that is good expect for ironic paragraphs like this:
I hope JSND & Pumas ask aloud in the MSM : Senator Obama; what do you need cages for?
Won’t vote for anyone of them that endorse’s his majesty!
Thursday was security theme. Go figure.
Colin Powell has always been a bit strange to me. Too secretive - now we know he is just like Obama - wonder what he has in his closet?????????
I have suspected for a long time that it was going to be Colin Powell for VP. I just lost all respect for Colin Powell. Obama is such a loser - he had to have the WOW factor.
Well, it doesn’t matter who his VP choice is - I will never vote for Obama!!!!! Never, never, never
OT:
Sad news.
CNN Breaking: Bill Gwatney has died
Any idea about the motives behind the shooting? Seems
the guy had lost his job.
I didn’t see anything else regarding the motives because I cannot stomach CNN for more than 5 minutes at a time.
Whatever the motivate—the freaking shooter got off easy. And the Gwatney family will be left with so many unanswered questions.
Prayers up for them.
*motivation* not *motivate*
*motive* not *motives*
Yikes!
It’s OK, RC. I can’t type very well today, either.
He had not lost his job.
Oh no! God speed, Mr. Gwatney! And God Bless Mr. Gwatney’s family. This is so awful. I am so sorry! How could this terrible thing happen?
Democrats caging other Democrats. Sounds about right with this crew.
I’m sure it’s for our own good … snark!
Its going to smell in there with everyone covered in crap cannon goo.
Right, because everyone knows that the Denver Sheriff’s Department is just the gestapo for the DNC. Being city employee’s with absolutely no ties to the party at all is all just a cover.
“To wank oneself off is the beginning of a life-long case of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.”
Oscar Wilde for you there young
botbutt …OT: Bill Gwatney, Arkansas Dem. Party chair died from the shooting.
The Clintons released a statement; it seems Bill Gwatney was a personal friend.
From CNN :
Well someone else who wanted Hillary and loved the Clintons is gone. I guess Obama will now appoint someone who likes him.
I was a member, for years, of the big orange monster (completely reformed since early this year).
I know for a fact that Colin Powell has been PERSONA NON GRATA
(sorry, the post got away from me)
I was a member, for years, of the big orange monster (completely reformed since early this year).
I know for a fact that Colin Powell has been PERSONA NON GRATA there ever since he lied to the world for the Bush crime family to get us into war.
Seriously - Powell is a traitor as far as the kos kids are concerned (and as far as I am concerned). So, it’s gonna be fun watching them twist themselves into pretzels AGAIN to suddenly “testify” that they’ve “always had a deep and abiding respect for Powell.”
Watch ‘em - I’m not kidding - they’ll do exactly that - Powell will be AN AMERICAN HERO “who just so happens to support obama - and no, the black thing has nothing to do with it.” LOL!
Let me get this straight. This is the warehouse plan for Democratic, American citizen protesters in Denver?
What does this remind you of? And electric stun control will be used to quell dissenting crowds?
If someone asked me, I’d swear this was the plan of an authoritarian regime. But, oh no. This is the plan of the “Democratic” party, the party I proudly had a lifelong membership in.
As much as I respect Colin Powell, I would never vote for this ticket, this party [the lower caps are deliberate]. I don’t care if they offer up Hillary Clinton as a VP. I don’t care if Ed Rendell [who I've always liked] sends a gazillion emails.
My answer is NO to cages, NO to silence. NO, NO, NO!!
Welcome to the world of Obama where political opposition is treated like cattle. Obama is a communist. We have all the bigots, weak people, and cult followers in this country to thank for the rise of Obama.
Are you fucking kidding me? Dogs at the city kennel have better facilities. Has America descended this far? Wake up people! BO is declaring war on anyone who defies him.
Today, as I look at all the posts on our site, I can say, I am about as stressed out as I have ever been politically. It is all just plain insanity. I shouldn’t be surprised, but I am sick to my stomach, and especially at the lack of any sense of shame by Democrats over this behavior, from the racism, to the convention shenanigans to the handling of dissension among delegates, cages, tasers. Christ. There is no leg to stand on to criticize anyone else, there are no parties in my mind anymore, country first period. These are works of the lunatic fringe. I feel filthy to have ever belonged to the former democratic party.
I hear ya, Katmoon - I feel exactly the same.
Ease up, kids. Remember 1968. The treatment of the demonstrators by Richard Daley, Sr., (the fruit didn’t fall far from that tree did it?) was one of the main reasons Humpfrey never had a prayer. I just hope they get it all on the evening news.
Ten minutes of Denver Gestapo clubbing and tasering old ladies will be displaced by two seconds of Britney or Linday or Jessica flashing some fur while dismounting from a Mercedes, to be followed by two hours of hired whores bloviating about why no one wears underwear anymore.
“The bush question: Real or a Merkin? Tune in tomorrow when Katie Couric talks about her pubic thatch. You’ve been up her butt, you might as well see the fun part on CBS.”
So fill er up to overflowing and let the media do the rest of the news.
I know what else set me off this evening, the airlines are charging the soldiers for their packs and bags they take into country. My nephew(home on leave for a few weeks yea!) confirmed this for me, and there is a news report on it as well; up to about 275 bucks depending on how many bags. Sons of bitches!

“STUNNING”!
That’s an understatement!
I guess the Judiciary Commitee will be proud!
Sadly, most Americans won’t give a —-unless a real trajedy occurs…which could very well happen with this set-up!
Obama intends to be nominated at ANY COST TO OUR
DEMOCRACY, that much has become evident. I hope that
those pictures are circulated to all blogs and the MSM and are a source of MAJOR embarassment to the
party, Obama and Denver. Protestors will have licen-
ses and a right to discent. So, what gives?
This the “embodiment” of UNITY? I think not! He fails
miserably at drawing people to him, who are not
“fawners”. HTH is he going to be the ONE to help to
bring “peace” anywhere else, when he can’t do it
within the party.
Food for thought…
For an alleged Constitutional Scholar, he sure doesn’t know much about freedom of assembly, does he?
Oh, I forgot, those rights are ours only if and when HE says they are.
He is no patriot, that’s for sure.
What do you expect?
Name ONE member of the Bush cabal who has been hung from a lamp post.
ObamaYoMamma KNOWS he is at liberty to take as much power as he can, without serious interference from The People.
Katmoon: Ditto. The dirty lowdown.
Like my Grandfather says, “Watch how this goes down in History. What will be written in the History book about this election? Shameful.”
If Obama has his way it will go down in Spanish.
wrt the murder of Bill Gwatney: We don’t know yet (or will we ever?) whether this was perpetrated by the obamacult or not, but…
I posted on TalkLeft, months ago - just an informational post reporting that Tavis Smiley had said that he and his family had received death threats from the obots for daring to speak against “The One.” My post was quickly “disappeared.”
So then I posted another comment - my prediction that before this election is over THERE WILL BE DEATHS - just too many thousands of death threats from the obots to anyone/everyone who didn’t fall in line - so many thousands of pubescent fantasies/threats of savage violence against women. That post was “disappeared” too.
Whether this murder was committed for political reasons or not, my prediction still stands. This is a horrible, violent, dangerous atmosphere - too many angry, immature, crazy automatons who think they suddenly “have the power.”
I’m really scared now. For people’s lives…for my country. Maybe it’s time to emigrate?
The difference in the Jim Jones cult and the Obama cult is numbers and the opportunity to control the government. The Jim Jones cult were misfits like the Obama cult and ended up killing others who discovered the evilness of the cult and then had to kill themselves.
The Obama cult wants to control everyone and do not want to allow freedom of speech for those who do not fall in line.
Either way, the DNC is going to be screwed by this. Either they let the demonstrators (and there are plenty of other groups going to Denver too) be heard or they have a fiasco on their hands. Hopefully the later.
I don’t think they will be able to resist trying to silence people…it’s been their modus operandi all along. Cheat, lie by commission and omission, steal, and then lie some more. Low class gangsters. The Democratic party will never recover from this.
I and a group of partner attorneys will be going to Denver in support of Hillary.
Let this be a warning to the City of Denver. If you even have a whiff of taking anyone in our party to those cages, be prepared to pay painful liquidated, punitive “tort” damages.
I smell a class action suit on this and have a gaggle of outstanding legal counselors who would just love to get their names in the paper all the while generating a windfall fee event.
Got that Denver? No? Try me…
Seymour
Woot, Woot, Seymour! Maybe you oughtta seek out the Hillary supporters early and get a few thousand business cards in circulation! Oops, I’m sure you’ve already thought of that…
I second that Seymour!
Whooot Whooot Whoot Whoot
can you send me your cell phone number just incase I am in one of those cages!
I second that Seymour!
Whooot Whooot Whoot Whoot
can you send me your cell phone number just incase I am in one of those cages!
Alright Seymour.
go Seymour!! I think once this news gets out in full force you will be joined by many other attorneys.
“I do not have time to waste on Bill Kristol’s musings,” Powell told ABC News. “I am not going to the convention. I have made this clear.”
After telling ABC News by phone that he would not be going to the Democratic National Convention, Powell ended the conversation without entertaining any follow-up questions as to whether he would be crossing party lines to endorse Obama.
I have had it!
Obama has crossed the line.
It is time for the American People to stand up and say NO!
Obama has got to go and be taken down off of his throne before the convention and ushered out in humiliation.
So any and all of you I do not care what your affiliation is.
Many of you have donw great work.
The Republicans are waiting for the general election for their dirt bombs.
We cannot wait for that time.
This man is too dangerous and has to be taken down now no matter what.
Go to the ends of the earth to do what you can to bring this man down!
I am more than angree. What is happening to our first amendment right!!!!!
I am more than angry. What is happening to our first amendment right!!!!!
Furthermore, many if not the majority of the protesters might just be women.
What an atrocity that would be to have the whole world see the fall of our Democracy and the imprisonment of our women.
That would make us look very much like a Muslim nation to imprison our women for protesting and that is just what Obama wants to do.
Don’t count on the media to show the truth, after all they are in the tank for Obama.
These concentration camp like boxes are wonderful photographs for the rest of the world to see. It shows them our democracy at work.
Obama’s brand of democracy that is.
That will be enough to scare the rest of the independents and any fence sitting repubs right into McCain’s camp.
Let them try it; I hope the Puma who are going, have contacts beyond the convention should they need help, bail, etc. Does anyone know if there is a fund or a collection being taken up for this? I would be there in a heartbeat if I could go, but my older body wouldn’t hold up none too well, and I can just see getting charged with concealed drugs for having methyltrexate on me. But, I want to help and support our Puma’s and all related factions going to represent Country First.
FREEDOM CAGES!!!!! How BUSH!!!! Only its done by our people.
“FREEDOM CAGES!! With Concertian wire on the top–almost like a Surrey on top huh? Finally–Change we can believe in!!!!
“FREEDOM CAGES!! With Concertina wire on the top–almost like a Surrey on top huh? Finally–Change we can believe in!!!!
I’m thinking we should put in a request to the United Nations to do an inspection of “Gitmo on the Platte” before the convention. The facility looks more like a dog kennel than a city/county jail.
I don’t get the outrage.
There are 1000s of people planning on coming to Denver expressly to break the law. Not to protest, not to be heard, not to do anything useful, just to make noise and draw attention to themselves by being as disruptive as possible.
What is Denver supposed to do with them? Pat them on their heads like the spoiled brats they are?
What right do these idiots have to come to my city and break the law? Cages are too good for them. Throw them in a box car and haul them out of the state.
Orderly protests my ass. No group calling itself Recreate68 is planning on order.
I still haven’t decided if I’m going to leave town or watch the riots from my office window (20th floor should be pretty safe - even from the tear gas).
“Cages are too good for them. Throw them in a box car and haul them out of the state.”
Typical Obamanazi. Do you plan on gassing them too?
Martin Luther King On Duty
To Break Unjust Laws
“There are just laws and there are unjust laws. I would agree with St. Augustine that an unjust law is no law at all… One who breaks an unjust law must do it openly, lovingly…I submit that an individual who breaks a law that conscience tells him is unjust, and willingly accepts the penalty by staying in jail to arouse the conscience of the community over its injustice, is in reality expressing the very highest respect for law.”
Confining protesters to Free-Speech Zones is against everything America’s first protesters fought and dies for.
Mrsizer:
Recreate68 is affiliated to Obama and his buddy Bill Ayers. Take your complaint to them.
Recreate68 isn’t any part of PUMA.
A concern I share, actually. It doesn’t do much for the cause of future party unity if the people you eventually hope to reconcile with are caught up in a police riot.
How are Denver PUMA democrats going to separate themselves from people having entirely different intentions and agendas?

They’ll probably end up in the cages…. and then be later released without charge once the cameras go away
I don’t know. If Oblahblah is behind this, think of what he could do with the Patriot (Last-Refuge-of-Scoundrels)Act as president.
This is some Orwellian shit.
It does bring a certain chill to the air doesn’t it? The bright side (if this can be actually called a bright side) is the effect it will have on the republicans. It’s one thing when the fringe supports an action because their guy holds the power and they think it won’t happen to them, like they did when Bush was pulling this kind of thing. It’s a whole different story when it isn’t your guy doing it. The right fringe won’t suddenly develop principles or anything, but I have this feeling that they will suddenly start identifying with John McCain like they never did before.
I will be in Denver. Let them taser me. I am a card carrying disabled female Navy veteran, 100% total and permanent. Let them do it, I will yell louder than the police will like to hear. I will make certain that I show my VA card, my military ID and my disabled card. Yeah! I make a good secret weapon in Denver. Beware Denver and all your police helpers; you taser me you will have to answer to veterans groups all over this country! This will kill the Democratic Party and Obama. You will hear from Operation Firing For Effect (www.offe2008.org) and others you won’t want to hear from! This is nothing more than Nazi tactics!
Make sure you bring people with cameras — we cannot depend on the Obama media to report what goes down.
Right! Let them hold their fucking nazi rally… I tell you what… This country ain’t the America I grew up in and so many have sacrificed for!!! and if that moron and his racist minions do get in the WH, there WILL be violence… and it won;t be from the Middle east. This has gone FAR enough!
Whoot Whoot, NavyVet!
A nice thing did happen. My neighbors who are not Hillary supporters but did listen to me about them said they are glad the PUMAs are out there. My friend said she will be watching for our coalition on FOX News from now on! She was glad to hear we are nationwide…..and working to keep Obama out of the White House!
I think I will write the DNC and demand that they return all of the monies I have donated to them over the past thiry years so I can regift it to the McCain campaign.
Have you taken note of the kind of people who protest these days? Anarchists, avowed hardcore communists, Code Pink loony-tunes, eco-terrorists. And they don’t really care what they’re protesting or who they’re protesting against. I predict the Democratic Convention will be a total circus because of these people, because the Democrats don’t have the stones to confront them, whereas the Republicans don’t care whose feelings are hurt.
The whole denver thing is DISGUSTING. Yeah go on you fucking obasssole people and your blind ignorance… You REALLY know how to create hope and change!!! you’re too immature, young, UNEDUCATED and IMPOTENT to even THINK how to deal with the operations of the WH or the responsiblites it entails… the morins of the DNC have made the last 8 years and GOP look VERY VERY GOOD!
*responsibilities*
*morons*
sorry I can’t type I am so livid!!!!!
and this is for the people going to Denver??
OK
yet we have to put up with the likes of
rezko
ayres
wright
phelger
the list goes on and on
how come they did not end up in cages ?? JUST ASKING???
Do these people have front row seats at the convention?
if not I am sure they will be in Obamas dressing room with a flat panel TV and Kool aide to celebrate the coronation.
Then again it all just addds to the obammaCIRCUS!!!! NO class.NO integrity. NO professionallism. NO REALITY!!!
The GOP thinks its Christmas in August!
Just like the re-education camps in China. I wonder if they will teach them how to make the correct “O” salute.
Gotta watch drinking that Obama Koolaid I just read this article about them finding CYANIDE at a Denver hotel with a dead man next to it.
Hmmmmmmmmm

yes Judd that was posted here the other day makes you wonder what will happen next.
The People’s Law Project will provide 60 pro-bono attorneys to help jailed protesters during the convention. The group will also staff a hotline where protesters can call for help and will field teams of neutral legal observers who will attend rallies and videotape protesters’ interaction with police. They can try to cage PUMAs, but with 60 lawyers at the ready, they can’t keep them there. Go Puma!
two cent reverse baiting is being deployed against an imminently beatable powder puff like BO
Focus for a second on that “eminently beatible powder puff”. Who wants one of those as a President? Color doesn’t register here - a powder puff is an empty suit is a con man is a powder puff.
If Colin Powell or Thomas Sowell or any of the competent thinkers or executives of color were to run, they’d rightly be elected - for their competence, not their color. Presiding over the USA isn’t like getting hired as a supermodel - it requires work, and decisions, and principles. BO hasn’t demonstrated any of those qualities, and is qualified for… well, head powder puff.
When I first saw this my reaction was outrage. Then a thought occurred to me - what if Hillary gets the nomination? Then who will be demonstrating and end up in the cages? The irony would be so sweet.
I find it particularly amusing that the most probable occupants of the Denver DNC gulag will be , wait for it…Democrats.
All of the identity politics and nanny state wishful thinking won’t save the party faithful from being devoured. Where have I seen that before? Hmmm… Oh yes. I remember now. Stalinist Russia.
Obama’s platform and political philosophy, with the exception of the perhaps minor blemish of being a completely corrupt product of the Chicago Deomctratic party machine., is so extremely leftward that it is absolutely indistingushable from that of the American Communist Party. Even the Commies are endorsing this guy. Congrats, Democrats. Great choice.

Just where you people belong, in cages so you can’t infect the populous with your mad cow disease
Hocus Pocus outta focus…Hey rocky watch me pull a rabbit out of my hat.
If you’re going to be there, you might want to take some precautions. CopWatch has been working on legal protests for a long time. Take a look: http://www.copwatch.org/2personprotest.html
Obama’s forgotten people
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hP-YoB5mnZs&NR=1
1.5 million Obama was to give this guy to clean up and fit up these broken down and ungly apartments that people were living in that were Tony Rezko-Obama’s Thjis guy only got 100.000 of it and did the work he could with that and sent receipts to Obama’s office.where is the 1,5 million Obama
This just adds to the reasons why he will not win in November.
The probability of violent “protests” at the convention is almost 100% - and those “protesters” will end up sleeping on concrete floors for a few nights. They are not your friends or allies - they are thugs looking for an excuse to riot.
Don’t want to be herded into a cattle pen? Keep your protests strictly legal and non-violent. Play nice for the cameras. Maintain situational awareness and disperse quickly if things around you start to go bad. You can always regroup later and elsewhere.
Or you could just stay home and watch the show on television.
Another report says the ACLU is concerned with:
a) Toilet facilities
b) Food
c) Attorney consultation,
The answers are obvious:
a) Crap in your hand,
b) Eat with your hand,
c) Talk to the hand.
ROFL! That damn ACLU is looking through the binoculars using the wrong end again.
