I find it very telling that there are no similar plans from this group of "fringe elements" for the Dem convention.

[nw_arizona_granny]

This is a must read, more terrorists at work.

That because they will be the convention....

File this story under: The mystery of iniquity. We ought to send the bill to their parents for any damages their Me-ocratic tantrums cause.

Hats,bats and horses bump.Club em all,let triage sort em out.

The sewer 'Rats are heading home...

[OpusatFR]

This will backfire enormously.

The tactics may have changed but the sentiment is the same as the sixties and people no longer tolerate that type of behavior.

If they act up and this turns into an armed siege, all bets are off and the election is a landslide for President Bush.

[dawn53]

It seems to me that these so called "pranks" would be equivalent to screaming FIRE in a crowded theatre.

Will there be charges for such antics?

Also, seems counterproductive, especially if they target Republican convention and not the Democratic convention.

Democrats could be seen as "anarchist" friendly, and thus not targets.

Anyone disrupted in the least bit by one of these vermin should file suit. Garnish their trust fund and welfare checks for the rest of their life.

The NYPD in this city is in no mood to play games with these nitwits and are not going to be gentle with these scumbags when they apprehend them. The cops in NYC have been looking for an excuse since 9/11 to unload on someone. That, and the fact that almost every cop I know in this city is a Bush supporter.

[Gorzaloon]

The NYPD also is preparing for possible "Black Bloc" tactics by small groups of anarchists, in which demonstrators wear black clothing and bandannas over their faces - and wield pipes, bottles and commit acts of vandalism against corporate "enemies" such as the Gap, Starbucks and McDonald's.

Shoot them dead on sight. Should have started doing so years ago.

Anarchists Suck *ping*

"I find it very telling that there are no similar plans from this group of "fringe elements" for the Dem convention."

Notice my tag line - I added it some months ago:

All DemocRATS are either relativists, libertines or ANARCHISTS

[jriemer]

As a side note, these groups have been practicing / perfecting their "virtual mob" tactics for more than a year. In the first cases, the effects were totally harmless - swarming a particular store in NYC. Now by combining these sets of tactics, they can effectively shut down the city's transportation system as LE has to err on the safe side.

Call it, "pulling a Spain without detonating a single bomb".

[wgeorge2001]

The left wing atheist/communist attack on the right wing freedom loving people of America continues to grow in size and intensity, there is an ever increasing polarization between the right and the left in America. The left wing intends to destroy America by bringing in totalitarian control of it's citizens, peace through government control of all citizens is it's siren call and they have effectively been attaining that end for some 70 years now.
What has become of all the left wing efforts to control and destroy but sorrow and grief for all of us, they see people as fools who need them to control them and lead them into the ditch of secular humanism.
They hate freedom of religion and of speech, the press is now a left wing arm of government and spews propaganda to those ignorant of their agenda; violence and deception are their ways, cursing and bitterness is their fruit.
I pray to the LORD Jesus Christ for this dying nation.

Internet-using anarchists

I wonder why they didn't use the term "telephone-using anarchists" or "automobile-using anarchists"...

[leadhead]

fringe groups' bag of tricks - which includes throwing marbles under the hooves of police horses and using slingshots to pelt the animals.

This was used by the War Protestors (including Bubba Clinton)in London in the 60s.A good friend went from rising horse patrolman to disabled solicitor because of it.

[Skwidd]

These people are idiots. They aren't making trouble for their causes--their adopting causes as a guise to make trouble.

[Truth29]

I find it telling that there are no similar plans ... for the Dems convention."

Some of them are probably delegates to the Democrat convention. And the rest are mostly fellow travelers such as ELF, ALF, the Ruckus Society, etc.

[punster]

Sounds like the terrorists at democrat underground, moveon.org, and ACT (americans coming together). It even sounds like the kerry/edwards campaign.

[AEMILIUS PAULUS]

Who finances these people?
