REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION

The republican convention is going on in St. Paul. As I'm writing this a bunch of rich white people are talking (and aging), and a bunch of poor people are rioting about it. The rioters are all giving the police fake names and they're communicating on Twitter. The police are pepper spraying and gassing tons of people with ninja masks on. The ninja guys are just throwing a bunch of trash cans and stuff at the riot police. It looks like a sci-fi totalitarian police state. George Bush is speaking at the xcel center... Via satelite.

Puss.

Rage Against the Machine is going to play an impromptu concert somewhere in St. Paul, too. Is it just like a huge party there now or what? People are just walking around pissed and talking shit about America. I can do that. Maybe I can break a window if there are any left.

Oh my god. There are so many old people at the republican convention.

They were expecting a huge economic boom for St. Paul because of all the crowds at the xcel center, but because of all the rioting and the police presense nobody would even want to go there. They barricade off entire streets and kick people's asses if they "breach the security perimeter." They just had some kid on the news who was like "I was just walking home from school and I got tackled to the ground and handcuffed."

Then a commercial came on and it was like "Mineapolis and St. Paul: Not just nice- wicked nice."

lulz

I don't know, I thought I'd share this with you guysbut maybe I only care because I live like an hour away from St. Paul.

Me either. I see riots on the news and stuff, but they're never this close so it's kind of wild to see all this going down in a city I recognize and have been to a bajillion times.


Edit: Holy crap! They wouldn't let RATM play a concert at the capital so a bunch of people freaked out and some protesters were detenating home made bombs. This is insane!
