DNC Occupy and protest pics (dial-up warning; will update as new pics come in)

12. I already supported the release of Manning.

My point is that the protestors were doing a poor job of educating the crowd. They seemed mostly interesting in telling us how much political parties suck and how stupid we were for supporting them. And none of us were even delegates.

I know it is a complicated situation, but they are alienating a bunch of people here who have been sympathetic in the past or might be in the future by using coarse tactics. I have done activist training with one of the original Occupy Charlotte guys and my group in general had good relations with them. I am shaking my head at what happened.

Good luck.
