World Bank and Internationla Monetary Fund (IMF) are having a meeting in DC this weekend. them tree huggers are going to protest on the streets against them.

they're not the problem though, as most of them are peaceful. It's those Anarchists that mix within the crowd that does most of the damage (you've seen them on TV, they're those that have ski masks and fatigues on, throwing ***** and breaking stuff)

Nah uh not this morning. Protestors were literally sitting on the streets on 14th. They burned tires on GW Pkwy and in Downtown. They threw stuffs this morning at the cops. Them bastards got arrested. LOL. Other than that, it's still a sorta mild protest.

Why do they hate The GAP?! Funny The Gap has to put plywood on their windows. The last time they had a protest, they broke into The Gap. What's up with that?

good point. a few bad apples spoiles the bunch.

i don't support any side in this, but the protesters do have just cause to protest. the world bank lends poor contries money to get back on track. however, they sometimes charge a huge interest rate and the poor contries end up spending their revenue on just the interest. many contries can't even think about paying the premium.

i'm just sorry a few jackasses in the group try to burn tires, mess up traffic, and try to harm the police.

hey jeremy, that's what i'm talking about make examples of the bad apples... i'm on neither side, i know nothing about it and protesting is a freedom in our country... i'm just saying make the bad apples think of what can happen to them if it happens to a few and they'll be less likely to do it

yeah, protests happen, these people have their points, but what I don't like are the Anarachists who think we shouldn't have a government... yeah right, that's gonna work
