I agree, everyone knows the way to be taken seriously in todays world is to throw urine on cops and slash tires. The republicans need to get with the times. All the important countries should do business like this. It could be the new world way.

hmmmm...... I am staunchly conservative in many ways, and shed my blood on the battlefields of Viet Nam so that people could have a difference of opinion, with respect for one another. However, I detect an odor of Stalinist Russia's "Gulag Archipelago" developing in our good old USA. Detention for having an opinion is outrageous! Our Founding Fathers are rolling over in their graves. Responsible non-violent dissent is a challenge that our nation CAN TOLERATE, and needs to keep us from falling asleep at the wheel!

Plus, you fail to appreciate the fact that the Denver police are at the beck and call of the RNC, not the DNC. They didn't want Democrats in their Republican city, so they made every effort to make them unwelcome.

Which group? Several were unlawful detained ... Also, you are wrong. Why are you making shit up? Does the truth hurt you that much? If it does, maybe you need to reconsider your life.

What are you, a Republican plant? Democrats aren't acting like fascists, Republicans are! Maybe you need to look it up, 'cause you got it all wrong!

What your article forgot to mention is that this group committed property damage and vandalism and smashed police cars.

I would LIKE to see all the PROOF the POLICE claimed to exist as well as the INFORMATION used or the AFFIDAVITS employed to get the WARRANTS. In this day and age VIDEO PHONES are everywhere along with DVD cameras, PLEASE collect the best EVIDENCE you can and SHARE with us.

2_Only one of 17 young people arrested in Spokane, Washington on 7-4-07 during an "independence day" picnic/protest challenged his arrest. When in May 2008 the case finally got to court, 10 minutes before the trial began, Spokane Police came running into court with video evidence they had withheld. The judge immediately through the case against the young man, Michael Lyons, out of court. The police have no entered into a phase of what essentially passes for a 21 century version of "shoot first, ask questions later", i.e., "arrest now, ask questions later". The only pretext they need to arrest you is they don't like what you look like, they don't like your attitude, they don't like your sign, they just want to arrest you. We are one step away from people being disappear in death squad type fashion.

1_Will people please stop asking questions like: Is this what America has come to? Can this really be happening? Wake up! It is happening. Has all the concern we have expressed about Bush, Cheney, Gonzalez, Mukasey, Rove, just been empty rhetoric? This is where this administration has been headed--a crackdown on the people. They "administer" the ruling class system for the benefit of their corporate masters. And IF they turn it over to the Democrats, they are turning over to the other half of the two party ruling class consensus. This IS what America has come to.

It was my five year old son that was in the house. He was also in the convergence space that was raided the night before. He's really messed up mentally and emotionally from the events. The joke that he asked the police while he was detained was: "What's the difference between a police car and a porcupine?" "The porcupine has all the pricks on the outside!!!"

I think it's very important to note that the name of the house is the "food NOT bombs house" not the "food AND bombs house". Keep reading about the results of the raids and following lawsuits to see how wrong these raids and arrests really are.

THIS IS THE MOST DISGUSTING ASSAULT ON UNITED STATES CITIZENS. PROTESTING IS ONE OF THE GREAT RIGHTS OF THE UNITED STATES. TO PREVENT PROTESTERS IS TAKING AWAY OUR BASIC RIGHT TO FREEDOM OF SPEECH AND RIGHT TO ASSEMBLE. WHY CNN DOESNT FOCUS ON THIS IS LUDACRIS AND ONLY PROVES CNN HAS NO BACKBONE. ARE YOU REPORTING FOR THE PEOPLE OR JUST ABOUT THE PEOPLE? SUSAN KULKOWITZ RN
