Trouble Brewing in Chicago for the Democratic National Convention Protests
The exercise should prove illuminating. Yesterday “pro-Palestinian protesters” marched at the White House, chanting for the murder of “Zionists”.
[PJMEDIA] reliably Democrat Chicago, aka The Windy City or Mobtown
...home of Al Capone, the Chicago Black Sox, a succession of Daleys, Barak Obama, and Rahm Emmanuel...
police, the Secret Service, and other federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies sound confident that they're able to handle any protests that occur at the Democratic National Convention in August.

"With two months left until the convention, we’re finalizing plans and making sure all of our operations are safe," CPD Superintendent Larry Snelling told news hounds at a presser on Thursday. "Make no mistake, we are ready. The partnership, collaboration, and open communication between everyone involved is why we are ready."

"We’ve got a tremendous working relationship with Chicago police, as well as a multitude of other agencies, both local and federal, that will be contributing to this whole-of-government approach that we’re taking" with the DNC (If you're white you ain't right!)
...Democrat National Committee, where all those off-the-wall talking points originate...
, Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle said Tuesday.

Police Superintendent Larry Snelling laid down the law at a presser on Tuesday.

"First Amendment protection is only there if you’re not committing a crime, and you can be acting out peacefully but still breaking the law," Snelling said, discussing safety measures for the convention.

The superintendent went on to say that it's illegal to block a roadway or trespass on private property. There's trouble brewing, and it's not clear that law enforcement understands the nature of the threat. The Paleostinian protesters have an expansive and unrealistic view of what the First Amendment allows and what it doesn't. Snelling was telling the protesters that the law must be obeyed. The protesters believe their right to freedom of speech is nearly absolute.

#1 In the opinion of this amateur historian, rioting hippies at the '68 Chicago Dem convention horrified Mr & Mrs Middle American and were a big reason for Nixon getting elected Prez.

It is interesting to note that said riotous hippies or their descendants are the people running the Democratic Party today.

An alternative view is that the hippies were avenging angels sent by God to make sure Hubert Humphrey and Ed Muskie got nowhere near the Presidency.

#3 #1 the alternative is the commies did it to HH because he was instrumental in the 50s in expelling the commies from the party in Minnesota.
