Yeah OK....

She looks so dangerous and brutal! It's a good thing all those poor police had sticks and riot gear. She might have gone ninja on them.

For the guy below me- the GOP does not need anyone to make them look bad. They're doing a great job of it all by themselves.

WAKE UP PEOPLE

THIS IS A SETUP. GOODMAN IS A SCHILL. THIS ARREST WAS SET UP TO MAKE THE REPUBLICANS LOOK BAD. GOODMAN IS A LEFT GATEKEEPER. ALL SMOKE AND MIRRORS. DISTRACTION.

Sue them!!!!

The right of the people to assemble peacefully and to speak freely is clearly guaranteed by the US constitution. When those rights are violated the people responsible must be held accountable, either through criminal proceedings or civil suit. My guess is that the local prosecutors are in on it so they likely won't do anything. But a civil suit could work. Sue the pants off of them. Sue everyone involved. Sue them until it hurts so much they will never dare do it again.

Anyone not against us, is for us

I don't know much about her group, and I realize we are supposed to be a representative republic. But as a wise man once said "anyone that is not against us, is for us". Anyone who stands up for our rights, is a friend of mine, even if I don't totally agree with their agenda.

They have to...

They have to justify the $50 million provided by the Federal Government for the RNC to ramp up the stormtrooper squads.

Only the Pros

As a fan of Alex Jones and a free thinker I generally side with the cops about 50% of the time with these videos. "Civil disobedience" is a tool of the left (no offense) to gain publicity. In this case she was clearly disobeying the cops. I wasn't there but methinks it would be relatively easy to steer clear of areas which were deemed off-limits by the cops. This doesn't seem to happen with the "amature/volunteer" Ron Paul protesters. IMHO the idea of "free speech zones" might be a different topic all together.

Negative 5???

Wow I thought I was fair and balanced. Strongest response yet. Good thing for the Ron Paul movement that some of us reality based conservatives are here to guide you.
