Mon, Aug 25, 2008 at 6:28:42 pm PDT

Just received via text from Zombie:

Riot in civic center still happening. Moved south. I got pepper sprayed. Currently trapped with anarchists...

UPDATE at 8/25/08 6:54:17 pm:

Received at 6:50 pm PST:

Trapped with several hundred rioters ... no way out ... 100s of police have us encircled. Possible arrest looming.

A web camera at the Civic Center: Livecam - The Denver Post.

UPDATE at 8/25/08 7:21:33 pm:

The latest from Zombie:

Tried to talk my way through police lines. No dice. Likely will be here all night or be arrested. Healthy except for a little pepper spray in eye.

Also, is there set times that he/she should check in, so to make sure he/she is okay. Is Zombie out there alone or on a buddy system.

Police force back protesters in Civic Center

By The Denver Post
Article Last Updated: 08/25/2008 07:36:26 PM MDT


Riot police have forced several hundred protesters out of Civic Center and then blocked them before they could reach the 16th Street Mall.

Police had the protesters surrounded near Court Street and 15th Street and moved up reinforcements, including an Aurora armored vehicle. The have started to make arrests.

Protesters and police had lined up across from one another in front of City and County Building about 7 p.m., the police wearing their full riot gear and holding batons, chanting "move back, move back."

At last one protester was sprayed with pepper spray and the mass of marchers moved back across the park and were cut off by police behind the Sheraton Hotel.

A police spokesman said that they had massed their forces in the park based on intelligence about the protesters actions.

Several downtown hotels were reported to be on lockdown.

You know, I grew up in a little town in Massachusetts. Back then there was a state law that said that you could not divorce a spouse who had been in the state asylum within the last so many years. There was a judge in town who wanted quite badly to divorce his wife. Every now and then she would stroll down to the main intersection in her fur coat, cross to the middle of the street, drop the fur coat and lay down on it naked as a jay bird. They would haul her off to the asylum and that would be the last you would hear of the judge's divorce for a few more years. :)

“Its pathetic,” said Denver resident Brian Goose. “There’s no organization, no unity. Nobody even knows what they’re protesting for. They’re just trying to piss everybody off and they’re not doing a good job of it.”

Riot police have forced a couple of hundred protesters out of Civic Center and then blocked them before they could reach the 16th Street Mall.

Police had the protesters surrounded between Court Street and Cleveland along 15th Street and moved up reinforcements, including an Aurora armored vehicle. They have made at least one arrest.

Protesters and police had lined up across from one another in front of City and County Building about 7 p.m., the police wearing their full riot gear and holding batons, chanting "move back, move back."

At last one protester was sprayed with pepper spray and the mass of marchers moved back across the park and were cut off by police behind the Sheraton Hotel.

A police spokesman said that they

Watch LIVE VIDEO from the standoff between protesters and police.
had massed their forces in the park based on intelligence about the protesters actions.
Several downtown hotels were reported to be on lockdown.

Curiousity seekers stood outside the police cordon, outnumbering the marchers.

Asked whether they would allow the protesters to disperse, Detective John White, Denver Police spokesman, said that police were "trying to identify" the protesters.

Place hands on head and approach police line slowly.
Attempt to explain without screaming as simply as possible.

Police are looking to restore order.
Submit if they request you to.

Some of the Kook Klutz Klan want him to get elected so that people will see how bad he is. Then their theme will be that all blacks are as incompetent as the Obamanation. They want him to get elected and fail.

Again...

Riot police have forced a couple of hundred protesters out of Civic Center and then blocked them before they could reach the 16th Street Mall.

Police had the protesters surrounded between Court Street and Cleveland along 15th Street and moved up reinforcements, including an Aurora armored vehicle. They have made at least one arrest.

Protesters and police had lined up across from one another in front of City and County Building about 7 p.m., the police wearing their full riot gear and holding batons, chanting "move back, move back."

For the help we can bring

Don't ask Jack to help you

Won't you please come to Chicago Denver

It's dying - and if you believe in freedom
It's dying - let a man live it's own life
It's dying - rules and regulations, who needs them
Open up the door

Somehow people must be free
I hope the day comes soon
Won't you please come to Chicago Denver
Show your face

From the bottom to the ocean
To the mountains of the moon
Won't you please come to Chicago Denver
No one else can take your place

We can change the world -
Rearrange the world

It's dying - if you believe in justice
It's dying - and if you believe in freedom
It's dying - let a man live it's own life
It's dying - rules and regulations, who needs them

Let's hope the police have better organization and discipline than was the case at the University of Minnesota in 1974.

There was a large demonstration, entirely peaceful, and with one exception, legal.

There was a small cadre of people who blocked an intersection they had no business to block. It was the only road into or out of a hospital. Peacefully blocked though it was, the law was going to clear them off it, and quite rightly.

And there was the law. The law decided to clear the whole area, with truncheons and teargas. Demonstrators, cadre, and all. Officers took off their badges so that even if what they did was filmed, they couldn't be identified afterwards. For good measure, they beat photographers and destroyed their equipment. Better safe than sorry. Students were teargassed and clubbed just walking out of class onto the green. Bones were broken. Some of the demonstrators fought back, or fought, and police were injured too, one losing an eye. It was a real dog's breakfast.

I wouldn't.

Most of these bozoids are trust fund babies, and as such can be expected to have high priced lawyers on the speed dial. This will certainly result in proceedings against the DPD and individual officers in civil court.

This may also result in Federal criminal charges of "civil rights violations" against individual officers. Remember, The officers who were properly acquitted of felony assault on Rodney King were prosecuted by the Justice Department under Bush 41.

"I'm not an anarchist. I'm a journalist. And I'd like to leave now."

The "I'm a journalist" part is totally unnecessary, but should help to distinguish from anarchists.

If they refuse to let him/her go, it's "All right. Arrest me if you must, but I'm leaving."

No, but they can arrest you, take you in, hold you for hours doing paperwork, lose the paperwork, and if you don't have an attorney to scream for you, you're lost for days. Knowing this, they can illegally hold a mob at bay for public safety, judge will slap their wrists six months from now.

Zombie was in the same crowd as a bunch of anarchists, and the police aren't simply going to let him go on zombie's own say so - they don't know who it is, and whether it's a trick to start mayhem elsewhere. Besides, the police may have been warned that the anarchists might try that very trick to avoid arrest and/or cause mayhem by gumming things up.

It sucks for zombie, but the police are doing their jobs to keep the rest of Denver safe from these knownothings.

re: #475 Cognito

Its not just this. Zombie reports on things the MSM doesn't, like that gross out fair in San Fran, and the raw antisemitism exhibited at antiwar rallies. I've never seen that on any news network. I'd still be in the dark about the antisemitism in the antiwar movement without Zombie's site.

Ha. I wasn't protesting anything.

You know Cog. YOU WOULD TRY TO TALK JESUS DOWN FROM THE CROSS, wouldn't you? You rarely comment on a topic here withouth having some crosswise way of viewing things.

That doesn't show fairness or moderation, it just show a lack of the ability to take evaluate a situation and take a stand.

It's easy to sit on the fence.

re: #498 Cognito

No, Satt.

so then please explain your #465

It is clear that you haven't been in a sweep before. It does not work quite that way. I speak from experience.
I speak from experience as well.

re: #502 Archimedes

I was thinking the exact same thing.

Zombie had the dilemma some time ago, with the fruits of the labor.

This might rekindle that problem.

Doesn't a average police officer read LGF? Can't Zombie just use his name as a get out of jail free card?

It was zombie who did the "Midwest Americans who cling to their guns and bibles" report. At least thats where I heard it first.
