1. That is a big job feeding all those people. Money trumps

2. This is how it got ugly in Chicago. They harassed the alternative people

This is shameful, and everyone on DU should join in denouncing this harassment. President Obama should do the same. In fact, he should just stay the hell away from Pittsburg, since this shows the G-20 is only for the people that are against him and all he stands for.

3. People, we have no fourth protections.

I personally have had swat at my home three times. No warrant. No repurcussion. The bill of rights is something used by criminals. Good people give up their rights.
