Groups to protest at DNC

[Richard]

The DNC might offer more entertainment outside the convention center than the RNC...although it's kinda hard to top those human vaginas of the Code Pinkos that showed up in Tampa.

Get the popcorn ready - here's part of the line-up.

And so it goes...

Groups To Protest At Democratic Convention In NC
AP, 1 Sep 2012

Several groups, including labor organizations and those opposing President Barack Obama's positions on various issues, plan to demonstrate outside the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte in tge coming days. On Sunday, protesters will take part in the March on Wall Street South — a demonstration that will focus on economic inequality, social injustice and other issues. It will kick off a week of protests and rallies by groups such as:

— Occupy Wall Street. A protest movement that began last year and claims that corporations have undue influence over the U.S. government, its activities have fizzled somewhat in 2012. The nationwide movement has issued a call for protesters for the Democratic convention in Charlotte, where an Occupy Charlotte tent city was disbanded last winter.

— AFL-CIO. The largest federation of labor unions in the United States, it is hoping to put a spotlight on worker issues, especially those specific to North Carolina. The state has the lowest percentage of unionized workers in the United States. The group is planning a massive canvassing effort this fall in all 50 states to turn out voters for Obama.

— Southern Workers Assembly. A coalition of labor groups fighting for collective bargaining and other labor issues in the South, it plans to have a major presence in the city to highlight the impact of anti-union laws in the South.

— Farm Labor Organizing Committee. The farm workers' union says it will use the national attention around the convention to highlight issues facing farm workers and other North Carolina workers.

— No Papers No Fear. A coalition of immigrant rights' advocates, it has organized UndocuBus — a group of 40 undocumented people that has been traveling by bus from Arizona to Charlotte. The bus has been making stops along the way to highlight problems facing the immigrant community.

— Greenpeace. An international environmental group, it has been critical of Charlotte-based Duke Energy and its CEO Jim Rogers. The group claims Duke's coal fired plants have contributed to global warming.

— North Carolina Values Coalition. An anti-abortion group that supports North Carolina's constitutional ban on same-sex marriage, it is holding a Rally for Marriage and Religious Liberty on Thursday — the same day President Barack Obama makes his acceptance speech at Bank of America Stadium.

Went through it four years ago when they were here in Denver .....

Glad I'm not having to go through this one.

I'll raise a beer or two in thoughts of all the PD/FD/EMS that have to put up with that crap.



..... although, you CAN'T top what Kgoerz had to go through out here four years ago, holding off the wacky hoards at Union Station.

The DNC has made a special entrance for their "heroes".

For some reason, Clinton (take your choice on which one) likes going in and out of this one ..... again and again and again and again ......
