Blackshirt Hordes Descend on NYC, Police Ready
Fifty of the country's leading anarchists are expected to be in the city for the Republican National Convention, and a handful of them are hard-core extremists with histories of violent and disruptive tactics, according to police intelligence sources. Police said each of the 50 have up to 50 followers who are willing to be arrested during disturbances at the convention.
Anarchists have "followers"?
This group, police say, is expected to engage for the most part in civil disobedience, including sit-ins in front of delegates' buses. They also may stage more direct-action tactics, such as vandalizing McDonald's and Starbucks. But a handful of activists with violent pasts have police concerned they will recruit others into dangerous confrontations. "The older radicals are interacting with the newer anarchists and it's a bad mix," said one police source. For example, NYPD intelligence reports say Kazi Toure, a Black Panther from Boston also known as Christopher King, convicted in the 1980s of conspiracy to overthrow the government, and with arrests for bank robbery and transporting firearms, was observed training younger militants in weapons use.
This common criminal's adopted name is apparently from Sekou Toure, the one-time dictator of Guinea, who was sort of a pipsqueak Castro and a favorite of American radical-chic conformists in the 60s.
And a 20-year-old New Yorker who allegedly leads "The Organization" is advocating shutting down the Brooklyn Bridge, and hurling bricks followed by Molotov cocktails through the windows of military recruiting stations, according to these reports. The man has four minor arrests for nonviolent offenses and the Daily News is withholding his name.
Such quaint terms as "inciting to riot" and "treason" used to be applied to these forms of expression. Trustafarian status-seekers will refer to them as the "people's right to assemble" or the "right to peaceful protest." In their demented lexicon, "peaceful" means "anything that raises our status and feeds our egoes."
And the reason for withholding his name was ...?
