POPSDenver cop slams a CodePink protester to the ground
God don't make no promises that He don't keep. You got some big dreams, baby, but in order to dream you gotta still be asleep. When you gonna wake up, when you gonna wake up When you gonna wake up and strengthen the things that remain? Counterfeit philosophies have polluted all of your thoughts. Karl Marx has got ya by the throat, Henry Kissinger's got you tied up in knots. When you gonna wake up, when you gonna wake up When you gonna wake up and strengthen the things that remain? You got innocent men in jail, your insane asylums are filled, You got unrighteous doctors dealing drugs that'll never cure your ills. When you gonna wake up, when you gonna wake up When you gonna wake up and strengthen the things that remain? You got men who can't hold their peace and women who can't control their tongues, The rich seduce the poor and the old are seduced by the young. When you gonna wake up, when you gonna wake up When you gonna wake up and strengthen the things t

POPSWar Protesters Denied Free Speech: Hundreds Arrested 1,000 people marching in the streets. Thousands on the day before. Over 500 arrested in the week. Raids on homes before the convention. Another FBI informant agent provocateur turning in his room after encouraging his actions for months. Bad...bad, bad protesters, refusing to stay in the 'protester cattle pens," trying to walk down the street to get within a mile of the RNC convention center. Or...maybe bad...bad government that now prohibits legal protest that are, actually, allowed to line up across the street from any hotel or business, wave signs, chant , try to have their voices heard while for 8 years the media pretends they don't exist and the government wants to fence them in cattle pens.

POPSThe arrests begin at DNC So, not giving their names is considered a minor infraction and yet they were arrested for it. Denver Joint Information Center would not give out information, shouldn't they be arrested under the same rule?

POPSCoal Train Ambushed Near Power Station Most of the group then clambered up the bridge and dropped food, water and bedding for at least 24 hours from its overhead beams on to the flat tops of the trucks. "We've enough for at least two days," said Ben Tennyson, one of the Climate Camp activists, as a mobile lavatory was swung aboard by a woman campaigner dressed as a canary - coal-mining's traditional warning of danger. A banner was then draped along one of the trucks reading Leave it in the Ground - the slogan of the group's "total war" on mining and burning coal. "We're stopping the train because it's absolute nonsense to be burning coal when we should be tackling climate change," another protester told a woman commuter, late for work, who was one of a jam of motorists blocked at nearby Hirst Courtney level crossing. http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2008/jun/14/activists.carbonemissions

POPSBad anti-counterfeit proposal This could be used to limit intellectual freedoms. If the hardware can be taken and seized then ALL its contents are taken without appeal and without protection. There would be certain people who would attract this sort of suppression because of their political or social views. Imagine a political protester or a writer crossing a border when this is in place. This is a BAD one.

POPSProtester shot dead at Gaza border Lets face it - these rotten Zionist pigs are above any and all law. They kill human beings purely for sport. Notice they say 17 were wounded. I heard from the mouth of an Israeli soldier that they are taught and encouraged to shoot the legs out of young boys. With those high speed 7mm bullets, it effectively amputates the leg on the spot. Israeli soldiers get major joy from this. No worries about going to jail. How evil - as evil as ANYTHING they say about the Nazis. ..,

POPSAn Angry China Is Lashing Out At Foreign Critics Internet demands for boycotts have unnerved some foreign companies. Following the Olympic flame's troubled passage through Paris on April 7, activists called on Chinese citizens to boycott Carrefour, a French supermarket chain that is the largest foreign retailer in China, starting on May 1. Anonymous mobile phone text messages accuse the retailer of backing the Dalai Lama, whom Beijing blames for instigating unrest in Tibet, a charge the retailer denies. Many Chinese are incensed that a pro-Tibet protester in Paris lunged to snatch the torch from Chinese athlete Jin Jing, who was in a wheelchair. State television in China has portrayed Jin as a hero for hanging onto the torch.

POPSFreedom of Speech/Media: 2 stories The Zionist government were surprised that the normal threats and in al-Jazeera's case, the death of a reporter, had not worked. They felt they had no choice but exercise their freedom of speech and boycott al-Jazeera from all contact with the Zionist state. This old hoary chestnut of the Nazis has worked before for the Zionists.
