True to the tactics of an Orwellian police state in the making, the innocent must be smeared and made to look guilty. Tomorrows MSM and Commie pink rag newspapers will read only that a large number of riot geared police were at the demonstration,leaving out the fact that they were not needed and that the group was orderly and peaceful. The Lunatic,Leftist,Liberals only believe in demonstrations,free speech,and right of public assembly when is suits their agenda. Thank God for the camcorder and the internet. Don’t think for one second these devious scoundrels are going to let up any time soon,they’re already scheming to control the internet and free speech. What I think drives them nuts the Left never anticipated the Tea Party Movement, a group which needs no leaders guided only by common sense a lust for freedom and liberty and a return to the values of the Constitution.

Pretty sure that they were still allowed their right to assembly and free speech. There are very specific laws that govern what is and is not an acceptable form of assembly. I’m also pretty sure that those “Lunatic,Leftist,Liberals…devious scoundrels” were just police officers that were doing their jobs.

Yes, the Secret Service must take all reasonable precautions to protect the president and other elected officials. I wouldn’t want their job for a minute. My main beef has always been with the slant of the MSM some times omitting or eliminating facts. Don’t worry my friend I also find much fault with Rotten Right wingers,and RINOS. Tf justice were to be served there wouldn’t be enough orange jump suits to go around in DC. I wasn’t too pleased with ‘W’ either he was a globalist and weakened us as a nation, and many of the problems we have today were caused by his ineptness. I always try to vote for a candidate and not lock step with any party.

Yes, they were doing their job. They were very successful in keeping the Grandmas at bay.

Maybe their skills would be better served at protecting US Citizens from the crazed supporters of ILLEGALS who threaten to kill us with garden tools.
Nah, makes more sense to keep the white haired ladies from singing patriotic songs in the vicinity of the President. We wouldn’t want their patriotism to rub off on him. /sarc

So…pretty sure that laws governing assembly apply to everyone. Even “Grandmas”. Also, they didn’t “keep white haired ladies from singing patriotic songs in the vicinity of the President”. The video clearly shows white haired ladies. Singing patriotic songs. In the vicinity of the president. Thanks for showing exactly how stories like this get blown way out of proportion.

GOD BLESS U FRANK!!!! THE ONLY NEWS REPORTERS R FOX NEWS!!! THE REST OF THEM HAVE THEIR HEADS UP THEIR ASS!!!!!

Pam, unfortunately, FoxNews has fallen short on many occasions recently. One thing I’ve noticed is that their copy writers for FoxNews.com tend to write with a leftward slant, much more so than what is seen on TV. Although, Shephard and a few others have shown their personal leanings at times, as well.
That said, there can’t be a news program without some sort of bias; it’s human nature. One would hope that they might acknowledge it and try to minimize it. That’s not likely to happen from any of them, Fox included. With regard to Fox, don’t discount the Saudi money influence either.

IT was called to my attention that Fox News is approx. 17% Saudi owned. Don;t look for them to be too harsh on the Sunni Sultans. However to their credit in most cases all of the others CNN MSNBC etc. lean much farther to the left. Some times by omission or very crafty editing. Remember they control the camera and the content and the reporters have to answer to a superior. Many a good news story ends in the wastebasket or the cutting room floor. I look at most news outlets with much skepticism. How many times has a story broken out on a news flash, only to be modified later when more facts are revealed.

Wonder how many of them wanted to break ranks and get a flag and join the tea partiers?

I think you can tell there are a number of them that feel this is overkill by the expression on their faces.
This was reportedly ordered by the prez’s security detail and that the local cops were reluctant to roll out SWAT. Turns out the local boys were right, it was a waste of money and time.
I suppose that some might say we don’t know what was hidden under those granny’s patriotic sweatshirts…. I, for one, am pretty sure and don’t want to know.

A precursor of things to come? I sincerely hope not, but I can’t help but wonder how long it will be before there’s an incident where an unarmed civilian is killed.
Think it can’t happen here? Check out the Bonus Army, Kent State, Waco, Ruby Ridge, to name a few.
