[kj] Official Site

[Brendan Quinn]

Cops dressing up as protestors in order to give them an excuse to crack
heads.there should be a similar charge to treason for that one, it's such a
despicable act of cowardice I don't know how you'd live with yourself.

 

Some protestors apparently did the same at the G20.I think that's wrong. You
lose any right to complain if you use the same tactics.

I agree that a lot of the London protesters looked and acted a bit like
idiots, but Brenden is right, they have important causes to advertise (4
main issues were addressed--the 2 wars, the banker bailout fiasco, the
environment, and the gay rights issue [BTW, who are a bunch of bigots to
tell people they can't get married--I have several students w/same sex
parents and they are great parents...]). Often the anarchists make these
protests into a circus atmosphere. However, in the US at least, often the
cops send a provocateur into the crowd, dressed like an anarchist or
whatever, to start smashing windows, in order to give the uniformed cops an
excuse to attack (although it looked like this might not have been the case
in London). At a recent Wall St protest, pictures were taken of 2 cops
dressed like anarchists standing alone behind police lines...

Do you honestly believe that's what it all boils down to? Like none of them
are a might testy about being expected to bail out the banks who largely got
us into this mess in the first place? None of them have lost their jobs,
their homes, seen their savings and retirement values demolished etc.and the
money they paid into the govt's coffers is going to those responsible? None
of them are pissed off at the US govt (beginning with Clinton, furthered by
Bush) for doing away with Glass Steagal - the law enacted after the GREAT
DEPRESSION to prevent the same happening again?

There were all sorts of Placards there. There is no cohesion or message,
just a buncha twats who consider themselves
"anarchists" or whatever else acting like idiots. Personally, if I had the
money (Irony?) I'd go and protest about "The Gathering" Email
list and what a pain it is to add attachments.

Now I'm off to write letters to the Gov't about the dangers of Sani-wipes
and the countless billions
of microbes it's killed. 

FREE MICROBES FROM THE MURDEROUS HUMANS!!!
