Didn't Massachusetts authorities pull a similar stunt with Ralph Nader at the old dump site now occupied by UMass Boston and the Kennedy Library?
Yes, and wasn't there a 'freedom zone' a few blocks away from the Convention for any demonstrations? Both parties are heavily invested in KEEPING it 2 parties only.
Oops, make that a 'Free Speech Zone". Were they laughing when they came up with that name, and then created the fenced in area blocks away from them convention?
It's not like they were throwing rocks or trying to beat their way into the debate with sticks. It's dispicable that they were arrested.
Police in New York make even the Boston cops look like angels.
Some Democracy, huh? Not much difference between the Democans and Republocrats. War, debt and "justice" for the favored few and their friends.
