Re: TransFolk and Queers Converge in Chicago to Smash RNC

Smash is a traditional term that has been used by radicals for decades. Also, the strategy for the rnc clearly states a respect for a diversity of tactics. A diversity of tactics goes both ways. Some people feel that "thuggery" is hard and are into using that tactic, others are not so much into thuggery, and that is fine. Lastly, I wouldn't exactly call the strategy for the RNC an assembly of free individuals, but rather a massive group of repressed and oppressed people rising up and crashing the convention by any means necessary. The strategy of blockading might be an assembly, but I wouldnt call it one.

Re: Re: TransFolk and Queers Converge in Chicago to Smash RNC

@,

The RNC is a voluntary convention of free individuals that happen to be ideologically on the other side. Just like the DNC. Still, why smash it? So we look like monkeys flinging poop in the zoo? If your goal is to behave like a caveman, then please be my guest... at least admit that the tactics of "taking the street", organizing blockades is vulgar and barbaric thuggery. I'm always in favor of organizing alternative events and set the bar for moral and human behavior.

Seriously, your argument is pathetic and in no way threatens the status quo or genocidal policies of the Government. Keep marching in circles, keep signing petitions, It has worked so well in stopping the war over the last 5 years.
Also I am confused by your mentioning of the DNC, are you advocating that the DNC also be shut down? Or are you assuming that I am a Democrat? If you are assuming that by showing opposition to the RNC that we are Democrats you are oh so wrong. PS fuck your moral superiority argument. How dare you think because people are willing to take militant action that they are on a lower rung on the moral ladder than you, in fact it is probably just the opposite.
