Then why do they always look the same?
black sweatsuits and masks with bandannas and violence that Doesn't help our rights?

About France, here's a possibility;
Neo-con fascism.


They probably pick their clothing & wear bandanas because they figure if they're recognized while being filmed by the media present their parents will kick them out of the basement and make them go out and find jobs. I have no idea why they wear what they wear... and we've all seen plenty of footage of protests turned riot in which the ones looting & breaking things were dressed in everyday clothes, so I consider your argument to be a falacy anyway.

As for the link you provided... Rense? I get it, he strokes the conspiracy bone so he's a great source for information, right? Not hardly. Has the man ever gotten anything he put up as "news" right before? Wasn't he recently reporting that the US and Russia were preparing to nuke each other a few months ago? I view Rense like I viewed the corny dork in high school that would walk up to people and yell "Shirt's on fire!" while pointing at their shirt and then holler "Now it's out!" when the person looked down. You're gonna have to produce some more compelling sources to get me to believe that the French destroying their own cities & countrysides was an inside plot by "neo-con fascists."

Well said.

Let me set a few things straight.

I am NOT against the Police being there to protect people and property.
I am against those on both sides who inflame the situation to the detriment of all.
I am against Police using teargas and mace on retreating marchers.
I am against the small handful of so called anarchists who give us a bad name.

But most of us ARE wise enough to realize there are extreme rioters and extreme cops.



Well said and sensible

It is getting hard to discuss these things because if you approve of the protest and disapprove of the violence, you get labeled and attacked by people for which there is no middle ground.

As to the use of Hippie all of the sudden. To be one you must be a genuine pacifist. Perhaps its time for us to regrow our hair and come out of retirement to demonstrate peaceful protest. If only we did not have to earn a living to pay for our kids school and spoil our Grandchildren

Thank you for the report.

Here's another tip for you, genius, real change is said and done with your votes, not with a mass riot.


Agreed.

And when the 'electronic voting machine' manufacturers come out 8 years after the fact and state that their software is faulty and that votes just happened to be lost during some sort of transfer, what then about your votes? You see, we can't even vote properly anymore without the idea or possibility that rigging is going on. There is zero accountability with these voting machines. It's a joke and it has been funded by, yes, I sadly admit it, the party I have voted for in virtually every election I have been able to. The republicans.

Sorry genius, but you see, when people begin to believe that even their votes aren't being counted then you will see more and more protests like this.


Any links or data to back that up? I didn't see any posted in your response.



mmmm, I would guess that doing a google would get you a lot of info in regards to this, but here is one article, though it is just ONE.
www.engadget.com...

You should also look at wiki and then look at some of the articles in google that addresses the history of this company deleting negative information about themselves from wiki.

Weeeeee! Sounds like you guys had a rockin' good time there, I'm too far away to attend so props on your upscale manner, I was not surprised to see you mention provocateurs. They tried an similar tactic (fight goading) at an rally here in Vancouver BC.

Good to know the NWO/OWO will have a difficult path in their doomed quest.

MSM has not covered this at all well enough if any.

I do not know the truth about anything anymore from msm, only from people like you.

Thanks! It could have gone badly for you but its only because of your efforts that those not there with you know the truth of what went/is going on.

Could the OP please explain the violent actions of the protestors including throwing bleach and other chemicals on some of the delegates? Do you support such violence?

Protestors attack delegates

As far as I'm concern acts like rage against the machine are part of the problem. They are a bunch of violent militant brainwashed leftists, serving the cause of satan. He who sins is a slave to sin and that's what these guys preach.

Now THIS is citizen journalism. THIS is one of the things that makes ATS an outstanding resource. I particularly liked the comparison between the DNC and RNC. # the RNC. Their party is done. They should retire to Jesusland and go die. Now it's time for the people to lead.
