Fifth Column
Clueless in New York
2004-08-17
Several high muckety's of the Anarchistic Morons of AmeriKKKa plan on causing trouble for the NYPD during the Republican Convention at Madison Square Gardens.

The NY Post has the story, if you care (most won't):

FINEST PREP FOR ANARCHY
And the award for Stupidest Statement is won by Lisa Fithian:
Among them are Canadian activist Jaggi Singh; Lisa Fithian of Los Angeles, a top organizer in the umbrella group United for Peace and Justice; and Miriam "Starhawk" Simos of San Francisco, author of a widely read essay, "How We Shut Down the WTO."

"We're not calling for a shutdown of the convention," Fithian said.

"No one has an intention of being arrested. If the police exercise restraint. . . they have nothing to fear."
See? The NYPD has "nothing to fear" as long as they "excercise restraint". Mighty white of the Anarcho-Moron party, ain't it?

If I was Miz Lisa, I'd be a-fearin' that the NYPD was gonna crack my pan fer bein' stoopid, if ya knows what I mean.

Schmucks...

#9  Pity that the cops *WILL* show restraint. I'd love nothing better than to nuke up some popcorn and watch live footage of heads being broken.

#8  It's really hard to break a batton but I hope the NYPD get a chance on this lump of losers.

"We expect the vast majority of demonstrators to be law-abiding," said [NYPD] spokesman Paul Browne. "But we're prepared for those who are not."
Heh.

Notice he didn't say how they were prepared? ;-)

#5  Preemption! Shit-for-brains has conveyed a threat to the NYPD. They should arrest (club/spindle/mutilate) the whole lot of them today and try them for attempted assault and inciting a riot. While they are incarcerated the NYPD should use them as practice dummies for chock holds, Taser, and baton training. We need some South Korean police to help demonstrate the proper handing of hoodlums. FYI I was cheering when they used the wooden bullets on the gang in Oakland, come on NYPD kick some ass.

Sure. If I'm a New York cop, I fear this bunch of pussies, right? Wear your helmets ladies, because I got a feeling this article went up on every squadroom wall in the city.

#2  "Exercise restraint" is moonbat code for "let us break windows and burn cars." My advice for the NYPD: Remember that these guys were probably happy about 9/11. Now remember the men and women you lost. And be sure to bring extra night sticks in case you break one.
