More Interruptions at Sotomayor hearing

[lies and propaganda]

wow.. dude just started SCREAMING about her being a baby killer and defending the babies.

She looked startled as hell..

What psychos these people are

[BOSSHOG]

1. I propose they handle them the way NOLA police operate during Mardi Gras

They have a portable jail set up just off Bourbon Street, get in trouble in ya go and there ya stay until after the party is over.

[lies and propaganda]

2. ahah, Im a native

many a Mardi Gras did I walk past those poor morans, lol

[BOSSHOG]

3. Love my NOLA

but I'm just a tad too old and lazy to do Mardi Gras anymore, at least at night. We go down at least once a month to pig out and retail. I say I'm rebuilding NOLA one beer at a time.

[lies and propaganda]

4. i havent been to a Mardi Gras post K

I would imagine it feels dramatically different now.

i went every year because, well.. im from Shreveport. and it sucked ;0

[BOSSHOG]

9. NOLA is doing quite well

since the storm. Lots more to do in residential areas, but the quarter is very alive and well and last weeks Essence Fest was a record breaker attendance wise. The Saints are here till 2025 and the Super Bowl is coming in 2013. And most residents are looking forward to next year's Mayoral election. Nagin is term limited so the city will have a new Mayor.

19. Complete with the water cannons?

:evilgrin:

[Ian David]

5. Because anti-choice forced-birth conservatives are ignored and have no other forums in this country.

:sarcasm:

[Recursion]

6. Well, they've gotten basically 0 for their three decades of efforts

So, yeah, even though you're joking, that's how things look to them.

[Ian David]

8. But it's not for lack of a forum or for lack of getting their messages out there.

They've got these giant buildings all over town with bells on giant towers, for one thing.

Not to mention an entire "News" channel, plus several "religious" channels.

[Recursion]

12. Umm

Yeah... I think you overestimate how many churches are anti-choice in policy; even among the ones that are, few spend much energy on it.

I have lots of pro-life friends; they feel like every time pro-life people are shown in the media (even on Fox) they're made to look like doctor-killing fanatics and misogynists.

[sinkingfeeling]

14. Pro-life? So they're all against the death penalty and our endless wars? Or are they just

anti-abortion??

[Recursion]

17. Yes. Don't let DU's stereotypes sink in

They're anti-war, they're anti-death penalty, they're (most of them) pro-organic-food, fiscally moderate to liberal, anti-poverty, and very very anti-abortion.

[Ian David]

18. MADE to look like? n/t

[Recursion]

20. Yes. MADE to look like.

[Catherine Vincent]

7. Any pics of the disruptor? nt

[Ian David]

10. Why? People who are against abortion are the ones you wouldn't wanna fuck in the first place. n/t

[lies and propaganda]

11. LOLOL!

[Catherine Vincent]

13. That's not why I want a look at him, silly.

I just want to know if he has the look of the usual rabid control freak.

[Peregrine Took]

15. It must be very frightening to be around these crazies.

Pretty soon the gallery (or whatever they call it) will have to be enclosed and sound proofed.

These "over the top" people scare the hell out of me - they're liable to do anything to make their point.

[Zort]

16. I believe David Shuster just said his name is Joseph Landry.

I was a bit far from my speaker, but that's what it sounded like to me.
