Protestors Planning to Disrupt Republican National Convention (link)

Pro-Troop Organization Set to Fight Back
Against “Blame America” Crowd

[New York] -- In just three weeks, thousands of Republican delegates from around America will descend upon New York City for the 2004 Republican National Convention.

While convention delegates will announce their support for the re-election of President George Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney, another constituency will also be making its way to New York with a very different agenda.

Anti-war organizations have been planning for several months to organize the largest anti-war rally in U.S. history. And thousands of these “Blame America First” organizers have already arrived in New York, conducting meetings on how to disrupt the Republican National Convention and sabotage the message of support for our troops and the war on terrorism.

By the time the convention starts, organizers hope to have upwards of 1 Million anti-war protestors on hand to disrupt the convention – including promises of acts of civil disobedience and violence.

The pro-troop/pro-war-on-terrorism organization, Move America Forward [website: www.MoveAmericaForward.org], has been monitoring these groups and their intentions to capture the media spotlight.

Over 15,000 members of the news media from throughout the U.S. and the world are expected to be on hand to cover the Republican National Convention, giving anti-war protestors an international audience for their message. And one can be sure the news media will be all too willing to cover the protests.

“These organizations represent the most disturbing elements of the ‘Bash America’ crowd and they clearly are determined to use these protests to attract international media coverage for the anti-war movement,” declared Move America Forward Chairman, Howard Kaloogian.

Kaloogian, a three-term Republican representative in the California legislature who also chaired the Recall Gray Davis Committee says it’s time to fight back with a message of support for our troops and the war on terrorism.

“The stakes are high for our nation and the choices we will make when it comes to fighting the terrorist threat. We cannot allow the fringe of this country to break down public support for our military and the morale of our troops the way they did during the Vietnam War.”

How Move America Forward Plans to Fight Back

Move America Forward has produced a series of television ads, with more in production, that they will begin airing in late August, during the Republican National Convention and throughout the month of September.

The ads urge Americans to stand united in support of our troops and the war on terrorism. You can view the ads at the Move America Forward website by clicking this link: http://www.MoveAmericaForward.org/?Page=AdCampaign

“We have to realize that this is a battle for the hearts and minds of the American public. And since we know the news media will be sympathetic to the message of the anti-war crowd, we will have to broadcast our message direct and unfiltered to the public through the use of television and radio commercials,” said Kaloogian.

Kaloogian says Move America Forward is on a fundraising push for the next several weeks to reach their goal of over $5 million for their national television and radio ad blitz. The group is asking for help from Americans who want to see another voice to balance the lopsided coverage from the mainstream media.

“We’ve done smaller advertising buys to date, having raised hundreds of thousands of dollars, but now the stakes are being raised and we must be ready to respond to the “Blame America First” crowd at every turn.

Oooppss, never mind that didn't happen did it..hmmm, guess the right believes in the lefts right to have thier convention in peace...too bad the left doesn't feel the same.

Hey wave...lock and load the rubber bullets and aim low man.. The lateset less-than-lethal shit is beyond cool. Talk in the industry is that a "sonic" device is in the final stages of developement. It's supposed to disable human motor function....in laymans terms when hit with this you go limp and piss/shit your self...maybe the first "live fire" demo can take place on the hippies at the RNC.

Someone needs to post the pic of the hippy chick that took a rubber round to the jaw in 'Frisco awhile back. I was during a protest were they were trying to stop supplies from being loaded and shipped to Iraq. I lost the pic when my HD tooka shit. That pic was priceless...

NYC is a vital hub in our economy.  Threats like that deserve scrutiny.

Besides... tolerance?
I have a zero tolerance policy when it comes to vile, foul-smelling hippies.

I'm gonna hurt them, bad.

It's funny.  The Left is so very tolerant, that they allow people like this to march side by side with them.  No one ever says, "hey, that's wrong... we don't support that".
Oh, sure... they'll say that everyone has a right to their opinion, no matter how, blah, blah....
But I guarantee they wouldn't have allowed a "I support the troops when they shoot Blacks" sign.
Would they?
Of course not.  And they shouldn't.
But they have no problem marching with these folks.

The worst thing of all is how the dpt is telling us how we have to be nice to them and what not.

The Civilian Complain Review Board is going to be out ENCOURAGING these anti-americans to make complaints against police officers.


the biggest problem is that the city government implicitly agrees with and supports the protestors.

It has nothing to do with "Free Speech" when it involves throwing rocks and garbage cans through storefront windows. Or looting. Or beating counter-demonstrators to a pulp. That's not "Speech."

That's anarchist thuggery. Big difference.

Good.  I don't want to see anybody complaining when the cops start kicking the shit out of these people if they go ahead with those promises.  People don't seem to realize they have no protected right to violent protest.  You have a right to "peaceably assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances".  If they want to become violent, that's fine, but the law enforcement officers at that point have every right in the world to start lobbing tear gas and whatever means necessary to diffuse the situation.

This is actually the best thing that could happen for our side.

Just who do you think the public is going to associate these clowns with when they start their rioting? Who has been at the forefront of the Hate Bush movement?

It's the Democrats who'll get the blame, and rightly so because this scum is the lunatic fringe that makes up the core of their party. We're going to witness the imploding of the Kerry campaign and they'll be powerless to stop it. They embraced the horror and now they won't be able to turn it off.

Already the undecided voters are questioning just who it is that will best be able to protect them. Do you think they see that answer in the hate filled, rioting lunatic fringe? Kerry will try to back pedal his way out of this but it's too late for him, he's already told too many lies and this one resembles him and his party way too much to deny.

The horror...the horror...and it's all Kerry's. What do you know. Kerry will actually get to live out his Apocolypse Now Cambodian fantasy....

I believe the NYPD can probably handle the crowd--that is, if they're allowed to. And if someone starts getting rough, the brass won't find it all that easy to criticize a little street justice as long as it doesn't get on tv....
