  • Protesters Storm RNC After Cops Shut Down ‘Rage’ Concert

    Thursday, Sept 4, 2008

    Roughly 30 people were arrested in downtown Minneapolis Wednesday evening as they marched through the streets after a much-anticipated Rage Against the Machine concert.

    It began when a group of about 200 people began slowly marching from the Target Center on First Avenue, where the concert ended about 10:30 p.m., chanting slogans about democracy and “taking the streets.”

    The Target Center had been surrounded by dozens of police in full riot gear, anticipating trouble following clashes with protesters in St. Paul on prior days during the Republican National Convention.

    (Article continues below)

    As the group walked southeast down Seventh Street, police began tapping the ankles of stragglers, telling them to get off the street and onto the sidewalk. At one point, a group of officers in a six-wheeled all-terrain vehicle fired two rounds from what appeared to be either a beanbag or pellet gun.

    Several people who were at the concert said they also saw police use pepper spray on individuals walking from the concert.

      Here’s the link to another video that’ll lift your little hearts…
      “Security” start whomping a pinned down guy with the points of their nightsticks but the soccer crowd watching feel that 4-1 against might be a tad unfair… and turn the odds around to a 100+ -4 stomping. Some of the soccer team even join in…

    2. Thomas Jefferson Says:

      There’s a cool idea, actually listening to the people. They haven’t tried that one yet.

    3. donald trump Says:

      America’s new slogan,

      “I got mine, F You~”

    4. RC Says:

      i like what tom said…most of the cops and army guys out there
      will only follow orders to a certain point. if they have to start aressting their grand mothers, they’ll stop caing about their jobs and turn on the people giving the orders. hopefully.

    5. Thomas Jefferson Says:

      Overt demagoguery is currently present in both political parties. Whatever “conditioning” is presented by the person or person, it’s always considered as truth, whether true or false, instead of fact.

    6. ShenK Says:

      When will people realize that protesting or any sorts of peaceful activity will not do a damn thing to stop the globalists from reaching their goals? During Vietnam there was peaceful protesting and did it stop the war? NO

      I’m a Christian and I do not like violence nor I encourage it but one thing is for sure and worth mentioning when the bad side practices evil through actions and not words unlike the good side, then the good side must also resort to action in order to balance things up. Globalists people are dealing with are evil in nature and 9/11 is a good example of that, that are willing to overcome and kill anyone who stands in their way. We even got COPS beating on people and do whatever they like but still people in the US are resorting to peaceful protesting? What more of motivation you need? When everyone else heads to DEATH CAMPS are you expecting them to act peacefully as these people are doing? Of course they won’t. Globalists do not play peacefully they play aggressively and the past hundreds years if not thousands of years of history clearly shows that, these are not amateurs people are dealing with, these guys take things seriously.

      There has been so much talk about Alex Jones vs Michelle Malkin, where the majority disagree with the approach Alex had with Malkin. Let me tell you one thing ladies and gentlemen, Malkin and the likes of her needs to be confronted like in that manner. Why the f*ck people always disagree with these kind of approaching towards evil and twisted people? Look at her book.. isn’t that motivation enough? She’ll clearly be laughing and smiling when she sees all of you on DEATH CAMPS, crying in agony, feeling pain, taking all those gas up your nose, torturing you. So for the love of all that is good don’t come and say he did it in a wrongful way.

      Ron Paul was right when he said Revolution will not work in America or in the entire world. Not this time. People have gone soft, they are more busy with their jobs, getting laid, having parties, buy this or that and living a peaceful life rather than doing anything to save it. Teenagers are busy thinking with whom and when will they lose their virginity, busy about their grades, busy about going to the beach, busy going out with their friends.

      That said Revolution will not work, even if it does I doubt it will do anything.

    7. Thomas Jefferson Says:

      The saying goes thoughts produces actions, actions produces results. The problem I think peace movements or revolutions have is there is no set goal. Take the American Revolution, they did have goals outlined, which succeeded.

      As Gregory pointed out, look what happened to Russia. I recall Czar Nicholas being somewhat of an aristocratic figure, which had his own display of apathy. The outcome of that revolution didn’t go too well, in my opinion, because they instead got the tyrannical Bolsheviks and afterward, Stalin.

    8. Michael Says:

      Shenk, really quick comment on your first paragraph.

      India. Gandhi.

    9. Thomas Jefferson Says:

      Gandhi declared that India could not be involved in a war being fought for democratic freedom, while that freedom was denied to India itself. Sounds familiar.

    10. billyd Says:

      The link to the utube video posted by Darryl is an example of the kind of attitudes people are to have if they are to participate actively in a society! Of course , everyone who is constantly trying to screw you will say something like,
      “Violence never solves anything!”
      If that were the case, there would be no such things as militaries. This particular example of violence should be understood as situation worth more than the sum of its parts.
      Most people are kind of ignorant these days, and thus will consider just a single component of this video: police violence,rabid fans, beatdown of the year,etc.
      The mostimportant aspect of this video, however, is CIVIC DUTY.
      Unlike Americans, other people around the world dont necessarily find an excuse for inaction.

    11. Stop NWO Says:

      Stop demonstrating and start arming up.Prepare to defend freedom
      instead of letting the steam out in useless protests.

    12. Thomas Jefferson Says:

    15. castman Says:

      Stop NWO

      I do not like it when you promote violence here be a little more creative!
      First you must make people understand why we are protesting you have to win people then you can use civil disobedience + civil courage
      Every time the system violates our rights they show who is right ore wrong film it make evidence make cases against cops go public and show what’s going on!
      When you use violence you give them so much room to discredit us all as a bunch off idiots who are only out of great violence!
      We can never be the one who attack first we can only be the ones who defend ourselves!
      Be out there helping protest, help people understanding the issues, spread the word stay with bullet-proofed facts make info shows!
      But don’t use violence and do not promote it here on the website fox might watch and show all America that we are bad and planning evil be careful what you say!
      There might be violence but let them start it be prepared to defend yourself in case you have to. If you are violent you only become like them don’t do it !!

    16. castman Says:

      Might alex shuld shut down the coments as NWO agents can only use them to promot violence here so they finaly have a reason to shut the hole thing down calling us terrorits

      You are a bunsh of idiots who have no better idea then bringing the movment for truth in to a bad light we are not evil we do not use evil we speak the truth that shal be ouer force at least for the start!

      Pleas alex make it clear that you and tru truthers do not promote violence at all

      greats

    17. castman Says:

      Thanks to guys like you!!
      They might show this comments even to Police officers to manipulate them to see as all as a Danger very clever!!
      Think like Adults become responsible for you’re preaching cause you might be the reason why a police officer believe them and the next demo people get hurt!!

      Use your Brain!! Violence only when you have to you are just like bush violence is no solution!!

    18. Dawn Says:

      I am very Pleased to see the turn out for Rally for the Republic. I am sure most of the people in the streets were there ,if not all! I could not be but, I was there is spirit right along with the million that watched on C-span.
      While our few brave and eloquent leaders spoke out with truth at this convention,the supposed BEST CHOICE candidates,and our DICTATOR and his WIFE spoke no truth to the real cattle of this nation at the RNC!
      I did spend the time watching Obama at the DNC, just to see if we had a real chance at change. The answer was easily NO.

      I’ve watched Bob Barr on several occasions, the latest in the Imperialist Presidency Hearing and IF Ron Paul is not going to switch and run as and Independent, we still have a choice. And it is not the Lesser of two evils!
      SHOCK the CATTLE, Vote BOB BARR!!

    19. castman Says:

      WE ARE NOT OUT OF VIOLENCE WE ARE OUT OF TRUTH AND WE HAVE A COUSE AND REASON TO BE ANGRY SO MAKE THEM LISTEN DONT LEAVE THEM ALLONE UNTILL THEY HEAR YOU

    20. Goatboy Says:

      Violence plays into their hands, it should be a last resort. The Rage utube clip will be watched by millions, between this and Jesse Ventura I’m remembering what optimism is. I hope we’re seeing a snowball effect…

    22. Right On Right On Says:

      The advocates of strictly nonviolent protest have a right to their own opinions, but they have no right to speak for those of us who do not share their naive and misguided ideals.

      The advocates of strictly nonviolent protest do not own the 9/11 Truth, anti-War, anti-Imperialist, or anti-US government movements. They have no right to dictate to the rest of how we shall or shall not exercise, defend, or reclaim our natural rights as human beings.

      The advocates of strictly nonviolent protest are not even in agreement with their own role models. Mahatma Gandhi advocated violence against the Germans and the Japanese during World War Two. The Bhagavad Gita advocates violence against tyrants. Jesus used a scourge to violently drive the moneychangers from the Temple.

      Thomas Jefferson repeatedly advocated violent Revolution against tyranny. The Second Ammendment to the US Constitution guarantees all US citizens the right to bear arms for the very purpose of violent Revolution.

      The advocates of strictly nonviolent protest want ordinary citizens to refrain from violence while simultaneously allowing the police, the military, and the government to continue their own State-sponsored violence.

      The advocates of strictly nonviolent protest endorse a parent-child relationship between government and the citizens, in which the government (parent) is permitted to use violence and the citizenry (child) is not permitted to use violence. This unequal and unjust relationship simply perpetuates the slavery of the citizenry.

      The State maintains its control through violence and the threat of violence. When the State refuses to respond to the demands of the citizens, and when the State uses violence against the citizens, the citizens have a natural right to use violence to overthrow the State.

      The insistence on strictly nonviolent protest is often used to disarm the citizens and prevent them from ever reclaiming their rights and achieving justice.

      “I don’t want no peace; I want equal rights and justice.” — Peter Tosh.

    24. Right On Right On Says:

      To the advocates of strictly nonviolent protest, I give this advice: get your asses in gear, hit the streets, and make your nonviolent Revolution happen NOW, because those of us who believe that a violent Revoltion is needed in this country will not wait forever for you to act.

      You do not inspire us or lead us, and the window of opportunity for your nonviolent Revolution is quickly disappearing. Those of us who believe that a violent Revoltion is needed in this country will refuse to delay justice or suffer mistreatment to honor your misguided pacifist ideals.

    25. Stop NWO Says:

      castman:
      Resorting to violence as a last resort of self-defence , and that’s where we are at now ,hardly qualifies as promotion of violence.Fight back or be slaughtered like dumb sheep.

    26. ReadYourHistory Says:

      If you look at history, Americans have never been so peaceful as they are today, and have never been pushed around as much as they are today. Back in the day when something went wrong, people took their guns to the streets and that was that. Now look at us, we can’t even go on the streets without weapons for a peaceful protest.

      The only difference is we don’t have the weapons.

    29. Goatboy Says:

      I’m not saying I agree with castman. I’m in the U.K so I can’t really know what is going on in the States first hand, it’s fairly clear something is coming and people are going to get hurt but I’m not naive. I’m just not baying for blood.

    30. Right On Right On Says:

      @ ReadYourHistory:

      You don’t need a lot of guns to start or to fight a Revolution, although of course it helps. When you lack firepower, you compensate for that lack by using sabotage and arson. Once a Revolution gets started, the Revolutionaries, who have stuck their necks out, will then need to fight an all-out war for their own survival.

      In the USA, the only way that a Revolution can be won against the extremely powerful US government is by emloying a scorched-earth strategy. That means destroying the electrical grid, the communications network, the transportation system, and a lot of the infrastructure. ‘Business as usual’ must be stopped, and all government, business, social, civic, and religious activities must be disrupted in ways that will make them difficult to restore.

      Why interfere with religious activities, you ask. Because the US government has already established a nationwide network of Christian pastors and Jewish Rabbis who have agreed to act as informants for and collaborators with the government in times of crisis. Churches and Synagogues will thus be valid targets of Revolutionary violence along with police stations and National Guard facilities.

      The Revolutionaries will need to create so much chaos that the police, Federal agents, and US military personnel will be deserting in droves to go home and protect their own families.

    31. WhiteRabbit Says:

      unfortunatley, castman, peaceful protest obviously dosn’t work. the police are not peaceful. FUCK YOU I WON’T DO WUT YA TOLD ME! when peaceful protest doesn’t work, violent protest is inevitable- john f kennedy
      we need the citizens of our country to get their guns! and don’t try to take away our rock n roll dammit. that pisses us off.

    32. Right On Right On Says:

      There are probably people who think that my recipe for Revolution is not worth pursuing because of it will obviously have severe negative consequences for the current US economic and civic status quo.

      My answer to that is that the economic prosperity and civic stability of the USA are not my chief concern. The issue that concerns me, and which has always concerned me, is US Imperialism, which has directly murdered more than 20 million people world-wide since the end of World War Two.

      I personally would not be fighting a Revolution for the sake of the American people, but for the sake of the millions of victims of US Imperialist aggression throughout the world.

    33. Goatboy Says:

      Can’t argue with that Right on, just hope it doesn’t get too bad…because it could get really bad, really quickly!

      @RightOnRightOn

      If you consider yourself a revolutionary get off the computer and go out and organize people and actually pull off these actions you’re advocating. You’re just like all the other armchair revolutionaries. All talk and no substance.

      @ Jerk Off:

      My friends and I are already committing acts of sabotage against the government and the corporations. We have been for some time. I blog on the Internet to agitate for Revolution.

      And you, Jerk Off, are on the Internet because your Mossad and US government handlers pay you to be.

    39. Right On Right On Says:

      I expect that it will get real bad in the USA. I actually want it to. That’s my goal. US domestic security and tranquility are not my chief concern. The wellbeing, security, and prosperity of the American people is not my chief concern. The rights, the lives, and vengeance for the foreign victims of US Imperialist aggression are my chief concern. The US government needs to go down. Big time.

      Vengeance? Of course !Though not by getting mad but by getting even.

    44. Right On Right On Says:

      The people who the USA has slaughtered all over the world deserve justice or vengeance; what4ever you want to call it. You don’t pardon or go easy on a serial killer, even decades after they have committed their crimes and they have grown old and decrepit. There is no Statute of Limitations for murder or war crimes. Just as the Israelis relentlessly pursued Adolph Eichmann, the world needs to relentlessly pursue Oliver North, the Mai Lai murderers, and the US government perpetrators of the 9/11 attacks.

      It’s not about doing the easiest or the most profitable thing for the American people. It’s about justice for all the people throughout the world that the USA has murdered and exploited. As punishment for the USA’s crimes, I would love to see an international court confiscate the USA’s wealth and redistribute it to all the countries that the USA has completely fucked over and fucked up.

    45. itsMike Says:

      Right on, watching reruns of “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” and dying your hair green does not qualify as sabotage. Now will you please return my lawnmower, your mother said you finished the yard two days ago. And don’t forget to put gas in it this time!

    46. HiFly Says:

      can you tell who does multiple posts by changing his name? Come on man you got the same tired BS that is actually not relevant…

    47. HiFly Says:

      Jesus was a Jew. That makes the USA a Jewish country. Israel needs the USA’s help, and the USA MUST help Israel. The USA belongs to Israel because Jesus was Jewish.

All you Nazi lunatics who think the New World Order is a “Jew Conspiracy” need to get off this site and go to one of your “head in the sand” tinfoil, white supremacist groups. Is Rockefeller Jewish? Is Bush Jewish? Oh they are, I bet you’ll find some dumb ass little article to convince yourself they are. Take a hike. We don’t need you. There is jews in the new world order just as there is Europeans, blacks etc. Don’t care what religion or skin color they are, if their out to get my freedom and life I am fighting them. All this racial division garbage was created by them, just like affirmative action etc. It is to divide us, quit buying into this stupid lie, the only minority left is the individual. Quit the Jew conspiracy crap, I have looked into it and all of your cited evidence and web sites I have just read rambling, incoherent lies and misinformation. We need to fight the NWO as one, not as jew, black, etc. Stop this nonsense.

      LibertyWarrior, You know of course the Zionist Jews are the keystone to the New World order. They were and are behind not only the neocons, but they are also behind the socialist liberals. Ordinary Jews are not the bad guys, but you can never take what any Jew says at face value but have to take every thing that the Jews say through a Jewish Filter.

      Please take the time to learn more about the Jewish Zionists and the State of Israel.

      you are totally right. about the racial division i mean. it all started when a JEW wrote in the bible that they are “gods chosen people” and that upon death the JEWS would be the only ones living in the city of heaven. but youre right, they (the jews) did start the whole racial division thing. and while dubya may not be a jew, he sure proves himself to be a zionist. which goes to show that when you put a bible thumper in the white house all they wanna do is the work that was written in a book thousands of years ago…. BY A JEW!!! but no there is no jew conspiracy. open your eyes douchebag

I know who is the douchebag, he is dipshit typing garbage that has no factual backing but the brain dead racist fanatics spouting this bull shit. Get a brain tool, the NWO would love the whole world to be like Nazi Germany, they created it, do your research, yes Jewish bankers funded the Nazi’s. If I remember correctly it was ROCKEFELLER and MORGAN (are those jewish names?) that were the king pins who set up this international jail cell. Get a life and nice try, never denied there was Jews in the NWO, Rothchilds, Schiffs etc. But you seem to always leave out their European and American brothers. Thats pretty funny and I don’t deny that there is Zionists and Israel is trying to get us into wars for them, never said that. But you guys need to look at the whole picture, instead of one part of it, you do that and they got you by the short hairs. Johnnyb thanks for being respectful, Crimpdaddy your a butthole, like I said take a hike.
