Freepers Planning To Infiltrate Hillary Event

Can someone (NewHampster or someone else) involved in Hillary's campaign make sure this info gets to the appropriate people?

1. Btw, Fresno is the home of the douchebag who owns FR

and his extended family of misfits.

11. Wouldn't it be terrible if someone leaked his address and posted a picture of him

and his home?

2. ? Surely we aren't going to set up "free speech zones" a la bushco now?

:wtf:

Our candidates should be able to hear opposing views and respond to them, right? If the freepers become violent, or threaten the candidate I am sure the secret service detail will deal with them.

Why do you jump to that conclusion?

I think Clinton's campaign should be aware that a far right hate group may be planning on attending the event.

You have a problem with them knowing about it in advance?

16. No, just wasn't sure if you were advocating keeping them out.

Sorry Ruggerson, I was puzzled about the need to notify. I would have assumed that HRC events are *always* targetted by freepers....
It sounds like at least one of her supporters here suggests "free speech zones". Calls for "walling them off" - actually to hear Dems say things like that makes my skin crawl. That is the cowardly way, the neocon freeper way to act.

3. Sure, wall off these interlopers

give them a rake or a broom and put them to work.

5. I wouldn't be afraid of these clowns

And I suspect the Clinton campaign won't worry overmuch about the two or three knuckleheads who might show up. Democrats aren't afraid of dissent, unlike the current squatter in the Oval Office.

7. Hillary is a pretty sharp person

I believe in a battle of wits should could take out a battalion of poorly armed freepers.

At least she and Bill take the Freepers' crap - and hurl it right back.

13. They probably will be identified by their "Don't taze me bro!" shirts

among other identifiable marks ...

9. If they really get out of hand the secret service can scare them away with a new thought or

a word longer than two syllables.

6. She has Secret Service protection, right?

They can pretty much control signage and such when accessing into the event. Also the advance team usually sets up a lookout for people that are there at events to raise a ruckus.

I wouldn't worry too much about it.

10. One of the replys:

"So far all I know is that she will be here on Monday. I did not hear about a time. We could call Democrats in Action and get tickets to the event at Fresno High school."

"I’m sure that the group would be more than glad to give us all the information about the Hillary visit. That is, as long as they don’t know who we represent."

12. Based on Freepers I've had to deal with in the street...

...they are like their Fearless Boy King Leader... all talk, all stupid and more than willing to run off like chickens if you let them know you mean business...

The Secret Service dream of dealing with asswipes like these people at rallies.

17. They have to make a plan to do it. Opposition doesn't just naturally show

up to Hillary events. Bush has to speak in front of controlled groups. I doubt any of the Democratic slate are so controlling.

19. Hillary should be afraid of Kristin.

I mean, he's proven that he can organize massive groups of Freeper protestors, like this one...
