Spectators are criminals
Is this Jerry Brown? Is this America?

In a rare rebuff to Mayor Jerry Brown, the Oakland City Council early Wednesday rejected his plan to allow police to arrest spectators at the illegal “sideshow” car rallies that plague the city and confiscate their vehicles.

This has to be a first.

Conservatives whining about a liberal that is tough on crime.

The tough on crime part is generally inoperative. The operative part is conservatives whining about liberals. The reason does not matter, nor does the incongruity of it all.

actually, thats not a good point. arent conservatives complaining the libbie isnt throwing spectators into jail.

if libbies are so soft on crime, how does jailing people make you feel like one?

anything for a laugh, i guess

hey heres one: your spleen looks like a toaster. hahaha good point

No, Jerry Browne wants to throw bystanders in Jail. Read the article again, slowly.

ok, maybe im misunderstanding you. is it browne that makes you mad, or the city council. i had assumed you were siding with browne. i wouldnt expect you to side with "civil libertarians"

Jerry Brown (formerly known as Governor Moonbeam) is liberal on most issues.

I guess Bacpac is upset that he hasn't fit the stereotype. I also happen to disagree with Brown on this one. You don't arrest bystanders.

It would be pretty easy to argue that Brown is the stereotype for Liberals.

outside of this story, ive never heard of brown. unlike many on this board on both sides of the political fence, i dont go witch-hunting for bad things to say about the opposition. so based on this one news story, i would say he was conservative. and i would daresay if it was a republican mayor calling for crackdowns on spectators, you can bet your sweet bippy the cons would be cheering him on

I didn’t know who he was either. I could care less who is liberal and who is conservative, especially when were talking about a politician for a city almost 3000 miles away.

File under scumbag femi-nazis
NARAL Falsely Accuses Supreme Court Nominee Roberts

Attack ad says he supported an abortion-clinic bomber and excused violence. In fact, Roberts called clinic bombers “criminals” who should be prosecuted fully

Yea, and the way the NY Times tryed to look into the adoptions of their kids stunk to high heaven also.
I got a good belly laugh when the Time's own lawyers told them that was a bit to unethical, even for them.
To bad the Mainstream Press didn't report it.

Even after all the facts are in and the ads are completely false CNN is continuing to run the ads.
