Occupy DC is planning violent disruptions and even physical assaults at CPAC, the Conservative Political Action Conference, in Washington this weekend:
The protesters suggested pulling fire alarms in the hotel where the conference will take place, screaming “fire” during conference activities, “glitter-bombing” participants, cutting electrical power, and barricading entrances to the hotel, according to the source, who requested anonymity.
“Speakers will be physically assaulted, not just verbally confronted,” the source told Scribe in an email. Two Occupiers, who the source also identified as members of the New Black Panther Party, “said they would be disappointed if they didn’t get arrested and planned to ‘make it count.’”
The source quoted another protester as saying, “Mitt [Romney] has Secret Service now, but [Newt] Gingrich and [Andrew] Breitbart don’t,” seemingly suggesting that the latter two would not be as heavily guarded.
Question: Will U.S. Rep. Brad Miller (D) and Democratic Secretary of State Elaine Marshall, who in October made appearances in support of the Occupy Wall Street movement, be there to support them?
Note: Miller and Marshall are Photoshopped into that photo, in case anyone thinks otherwise.
