RNC Protests




Wow! Thousands of people descended on St. Paul over Monday and Tuesday to protest the war in Iraq. Lots of police were on hand, but still, some got rowdy and broke windows, tried to pull an officer from his horse, and tried to grab reporters' cameras and credentials. Another protest involved pepper spray.

Unfortunately for the demonstrators, when things get violent and some of the action is turned on the media (which is the exact audience that the demonstrators are targeting), the message gets lost in the chaos.
