Well, the reality is really starting to set in. RNC in New York and freaking soon. What are they thinking? I mean, have they forgotten that over 200,000 people marched against the war here? And with the city allowing the protests no closer than three blocks to the convention, people are getting pissed. Check this heated snip from way back in July:
Kelly has proposed that the marchers with United for Peace and Justice walk north on Seventh Avenue past Madison Square Garden, where the convention will be held, then turn west on 34th Street and keep walking, all the way to the West Side Highway. We?re surprised he hasn?t suggested they keep walking right into the Hudson River. – El Diario/La Prensa (UPJ)
And, heck, those are the moderates! For the other end of the spectrum, visit rncnotwelcome.org and counterconvention.org. Folks are getting creative, too. And when New Yorkers get creative, you might want to worry if you’re on the other side.
Whatever happens, this is going to get a lot more interesting before it’s all over. Living within the DMZ ain’t really reducing the stress level over here, either! Oh, and don’t miss this classy little clip (9mb)
