It won't be from Tea Partiers. The Occupy goons, anarchists and war protesting lefties will do what they do best. Cause destruction and chaos. From the Charlotte Observer: Mecklenburg officials will boost their jail staffing by 30 percent and put double or triple the number of magistrates on duty in anticipation of a possible spike in arrests during the Democratic National Convention. Authorities expect as many as 10,000 protesters to descend on Charlotte, as they have for past political conventions. A protest march planned for Sunday, Sept. 2, the eve of the DNC, could be the largest in Charlotte's history. Other large marches and rallies are planned throughout the week, and there will be a heavy police presence along the routes. During demonstrations at the NATO conference in Chicago earlier this year, police allowed marchers to deviate from assigned routes, and protesters set off through the city, blocking streets around the spontaneous routes. Violence sometimes accompanied otherwise peaceful demonstrations. Liberal spin. Most of these protest turned violent. Occupy goons smashed windows, vandalized buildings and assaulted police and each other. Some were arrested for domestic terrorism when they wanted to blow up a bridge in Cleveland and planned on bombing the RNC convention is Tampa. Besides all this, sure it was "mostly peaceful." Complicating matters for Mecklenburg officials is the closure of the uptown arrest processing center for renovations in March. The center is not expected to open again until early 2013. That means all arrestees will be transported to the Spector Drive center in north Charlotte. The county processes about 45,000 individuals a year at the processing centers, said Julia Rush, spokeswoman for the Mecklenburg sheriff's office. Sgt. Stephen Morin said the county will increase staffing at the north Charlotte center by about 30 percent. "We're hearing from a lot of outside people that are telling us to expect the perfect storm of angry people," Morin said. "Some of them are going to want to get some street credit by getting arrested." | | | |
