The police stopped some serious crimes from taking place in the Twin Cities. This report says that leftist protesters were planing on kidnapping delegates. Perhaps we should call the Democrats the Party of Peace.
Warrant Applications Give Clues To RNC Raids
ST. PAUL (AP) ? Sabotaging the Xcel Energy Center or the Downtown St. Paul Airport. Leaving stalled vehicles and stretching metal chains across freeways. Even kidnapping delegates. All were tactics discussed by anarchists as ways to disrupt the Republican National Convention, according to police documents.
Groups planning to disrupt this week’s convention also held an “action camp” in Minnesota this summer to teach “direct action techniques” using mock Molotov cocktails and a simulated RNC delegate vehicle that was targeted for rocks and tire-slashing, the documents say, citing information gathered by undercover investigators.
The information is contained in a search warrant application and supporting affidavit obtained by news organizations.
