Our Democratic National Convention Experiences

This isn't politics, so no need to move it to DC. It's more sociology. I just thought that maybe the Denver residents could discuss stuff we observe as part of the DNC events.

I'll start. It's Sunday night, and I haven't noticed anything.

Others can feel free to add to this thread as the week progresses.

This is why I hate cats.

They just lay around all day until their estrogen shoots up and they take off running for not reason and attacking $#it at random.

They don't pay rent, they don't buy their own $#it, they don't even feed themselves. The least they could do is get up once every 4 years and vote...

Let me just say that, when you're on the observation deck of the Empire State Building, it's not a good feeling to hear a low rumble, followed 5 minutes later by a rush of security guards talking about feeling an explosion in the building. I'm guessing it was nothing, given that I'm still alive, but still odd. On the other hand, the view was great!
Fug that. I hate heights.

On the DNC front, we had some people on our street corner picketing to ban bird watching because it's like bird pornography. We think they were just joking, but they had flyers and stuff.

I also got to see a traffic jam that was all police cars. Three lanes on one street, and it was backed up, and every car was a police car.

Going to lunch today, I passed:

1. One guy holding a "Jesus Saves" sign, but he shows up once a week anyway.

2. A rastafarian guy begging for money who said, "I'm going to rub your head for luck" and then physically put his hands on my head when I walked by.

3. A not-unattractive woman holding up a "Free Hugs" sign, which I thought may have been a sign to free some criminal named James Hugs, but then some other woman came up and the first woman hugged her.

4. Some semi-large protest march, but they didn't have signs and I couldn't figure out what they were chanting. It might've been "Stop Warming", but then again it could've been "Stop Mornings".

5. About 50 policemen.

6. At least two street musicians/bands.

The shoe shine guy on the corner actually brought in a new chair and a shoeshine girl as an employee.

Overheard on my way to lunch from some woman who was talking loudly on a cell phone: "I think they're protesting that 7-11 was an inside job".

Check out the dude in the center left. He was all excitable, swinging his tear gas gun around and stuff. I predict that he's going to gas someone before the week is out.
Yeah, Denver got $50 million in federal money for security.

You should have taken the opportunity to find out which one was correct. You could have met a really cool dude in James Hugs.

You know what's wrong with America today? No one's willing to fight for what they believe in to entertain the rest of us. The religious whackjobs were on the mall this afternoon with a bunch of signs stating who all was going to hell (gays, sex addicts, jesus mockers, people who believe in abortions, etc.), and nobody was fighting with them. What's wrong with America today?

And the anarchists. Don't even get me started on the anarchists. After all that talk about disrupting the convention and destroying American government, there was not a peep. Not a peep! That must've been the most disorganized group of anarchists to ever walk the planet. They must've had no leadership at all. The Austro-Hungarian anarchists could start a world war, and these guys couldn't even put together a decent protest. Pathetic!

Cripes. Four days and I didn't get to see one tear gassing.
