All the crazies are outside.

I'm still at work and we get this from HR:

We gather that the NASD is hosting a reception in the One Liberty Plaza, NY building tonight from 7 - 10 p.m. for members of the House Finance Sub-Committee. In light of the press accounts of confrontations some protestors have had with delegates, you may wish to leave the premises prior to the start of the reception.

Hopefully, I can get out of the building without getting egged.

Not only that....pretty low in society too. I have a job...I don't have time to protest anything because I work my butt off to pay for my quality of life. These losers need to get with the program.

I swear, damned protestors! Heaven forbid that protestors have done some good such as made certain issues like Civil Rights or the Suffragette (sp?) movement take center stage. Of course, what am I saying? Damned them all.

The civil rights protesters were peaceful. They only broke those laws they were opposed to (like the Jim Crow laws). THAT is what civil disobedience is: breaking a law you disagree with, and having the courts decide if it is constitutional.

These protesters have completely turned the idea of civil disobedience on it's head. They break laws that have NOTHING to do with what they are protesting, and claim they have a right to do so because it's "civil disobedience."

There is NO comparison between the civil rights protesters and these idiots. NONE.

Yes! I couldn't agree more... :beer: :)

What in the fsck is your problem? Oh yea, you grew up on the tough streets of some crap city, we're supposed to be afraid of you.

Now you had hundreds of thousands of protesters and a handful did something stupid. You are a complete asshole assuming that it reflects on all.

Good job. Now you don't wish to pronounce your tough upbringing that we're supposed to feel sorry for you.

Why is that?

Let them protest all day! Both the liberal tree-hugging hippies and right minded Americans (those who actually have jobs and have to work instead of protest ) have already decided who they want to vote for. Quite simply, it is the independent who is going to decide the big race. Dirty, nasty, refusing to work, stinky, Michael Moore worshiping, marijuana smoking mopes going nuts in the streets only helps right minded American's make an informed choice. BTW: That casket stunt yesterday was just plain offensive. Let them protest all day!

By and large you do nothing but troll all day do you? How about you try to come up with a DECENT argument or statement for once.
Tough upbringing? Only that which I inflicted on myself by my own actions. Course, you r little keyboard commando ass wouldnt know anything about real life would you.

I don't care about your age, although I respect the older that frequent this forum. At least for the most part.

CPA said dumass protesters. A few in hundreds of thousands do not constitute a blanket statement.

Considering the amount of people participating in the protests it has been remarkable that the amount of arrests and violence that has come about being so few.

You don't agree with the protests, and are voting for a complete moron to be the leader of this country another four years is your prerogrative.

A man that is a complete buffoon representing the leadership to the rest of the world is detrimental to the USA. If you see otherwise you may. God help you.

Wow Soylent. Your one of the few people I know that gets completely owned and keeps coming back for more.

In all honestly, I'm jealous. What I wouldnt give to be in your shoes again. 17, living at home and thinking I knew it all.

Not my fault if you weren't in this position since I had good parenting. It isn't my fault that you choose some bullshit topic in revenge of my prior ownage of your pathetic self.

Back on track. Yes I know I typed a 1 in my initial post. 4 were named.

3 people could have been with the person that started the fire.

However, a protest with hundreds of thousands of people and the relative amount of trouble brought upon local law enforcement is minimal. I'm realy not sure what to speak of in your direction since I may get another sob story about your childhood.

Very well said. There is no civility in their brand of civil disobediance. Since when is setting fire to something ok - even if you have a legitimate political agenda you are trying to promote?

Yea but it kind of adds up when each 1 of those hundreds of thousands are also idiots.
