Its goal -- to shut down the meeting and the city.These groups' travel has been paid, food and housing arranged, legal-aid teams provided and "jail solidarity" -- that means massive noncooperation with the jail staff -- prepared.
This takes money. Where do these haters of everything American get it? From the Ford Foundation and other "progressive" American foundations, the governments of Canada and Europe. Each donor with their reasons, either political or commercial, wants to secretly challenge Washington.
It's a conspiracy to commit havoc and legal obstruction. Organized gatherings often require a permit. Some of these blackshirt anarchists will even travel from other countries. I don't see why known agitators are given travel visas. This is America's fifth column of anarchist-socialists and they oppose our constitution. Their stated goals (if not always so vocally stated, but they will at times admit them) is to tear down our constitutional form of government. They preach sedition and should be jailed.
There are those (including some here on FR) who believe that there are no limits on free speech. Then there are those who are simply ignorant of the real meaning of the First Amendment.

It's sedition for the US citizens involved in this and I absolutely agree, they should be jailed -- they are taking money from foreign governments to undermine the US. It's also an attack by foreign governments, who should be put on the enemy's list and treated accordingly.
When a foreign government's intent is to destroy us, that is war, even if they try to do it by somewhat more devious means, of using seditious US citizens to do it.
Sounds like somebody needs to pursue a RICO case against these people and their financial backers. If they can use it against the Right to Life movement, we can damned sure use it against these pinheads.
