Fox (John Gibson) singled out Oregon today as a troublemaker
Edited on Mon Jul-12-04 05:34 PM by barbaraann
haven with regard to the RNC convention in NYC. It was during an interview with Timoney the Miami Police Chief. Gibson and he agreed that the cops "know who the troublemakers" are and asked why couldn't they just be rounded up and held for a few days till the convention was over. Timoney said that would violate civil liberties. (paraphrased) They were tying protestors to terrorism, anarchy, etc. and said there's a group of people who go around all over to cause trouble.

I really hope there is no violence.

3. "Rounded up for a few days"?!
SONOFABITCH! Does that fool Gibson realize that what he suggested is fucking illegal? Just proves that fox is a Nazi network. Apologies for my language and if anybody in DU land is going to be there, give Gibson a good swift kick in the ass for me.

4. Would they be rounding up
the FBI planted instigators too? Cause it would be real embarassing to have all those riot cops show up for nothing.

5. Team Cascadia responds


I've been working with the group of people traveling from Oregon and Washington to NYC for the protests. We are planning only peaceful protests.

6. What did he specifically say about Oregon?
As an Oregonian, I'm just curious. Troublemakers? From Oregon? Wow...we've finally arrived! :)
