    Stop protecting thugs

    What is an organization called "Food for Bombs" doing with a organization like the RNC Welcoming Committee which advocates violence on their website? The RNC WC is not for free speech, they are stifling it. These guys are simply thugs coming to our city with the intention of violent disruption. Why defend them?

    Nobody is going to cover the groups that ARE going to protest. Those who did the hard, tedious work of going through proper channels. Those who might/likely will be arrested and harassed from the fall out from groups like the RNC Welcoming Committee.
