15 March 2003 Anti Iraq War Protest, SF (part 2)

[Bhav341]

fox isn't the only news i watch...and they did show the protestors before.

[Bhav341]

interest of bush and oil?? Oh, I see, the chick with the burrkha on probably doesn't use oil.

what i'd like to know is where all the protesters are now? I hear they can't even get a hundred people to show up at these rallies since obama was elected. - so are the protesters against war, or were they just against Bush? Looks to me like a bunch of bored 20 somethings who grew up listening to mom and dad talk about the 60's

[dvbetty]

The reason you never see 'protesters' is because FOX news never shows them to you. They like it when they can control what you think.

@Bhav341

There's a little thing called Occupy Wall Street that's been going on. Maybe you've heard of it.

[Bhav341]

@DrArchivist so it isn't war so much as it's wanting everything in america to be "fair". Even if you sit on your ass all day watching jerry springer, you should still have the same things everyone else has worked their entire life for, right? Don't worry. Another 4 years of your buddy in the white house and we'll all be on the road to equality, killing each other for food, probably, but we'll be equal. Be careful what you wish for.

[Kamissick]

These videos remind me of Iranian protest videos, what a great government the US has.

i swear, that woman at 0:49 is natalie portman

[Supaduck0]

2.29 love the "SHUT THE FUCK UP!"

[bottle2lip]

where are the protest now? The war wont be ending anytime soon in Afghanistan

[ukiahcat]

@bottle2lip So you think that my best friend that died in the WTC should just die and have the people responsible for it to just to be free to plan the next attack on us? Granted Bush screwed up the attack on Afghanistan but it's time this war gets organized and destroy the Terrrorists once and for all instead of allowing politics to stand in the way of going after the criminals to begin with.

[Joe402]

10x bigger than any tea party.

10x less coverage by the mainstream media.

@dunkelfier

You're in the Navy and you think the protesters are violent? News flash, it wasn't the protesters that invaded another country and butchered hundreds of thousands of their people. That was you guys.

A little blocking trafic isn't shit compared to what you guys have done, hypocrite.

[dvbetty]

@dunkelfier: Sadly you are missing the point of this video. It was filmed in 2003 long before TEA Baggers were a gleam in the eye of Dick Army type corporate funded lobbyist who created their Astro-Turf fake-outrage poor spelling protesters. Wow, fooling a few thousand into thinking they are popular and speaking for a majority! Turn off Fox News and TEA Baggers are just angry white people (with guns).

[GroddGuerrilla]

Chanting and pounding drums, while fun, doesn't get anything done. Only three things can change government.

Take it by law

Take it by force

Or take it through money. That's all they care about.

[MeritisDE]

The so called liberal media gave little coverage to this yet egg on the teabaggers.

Also, note the police come in riot gear for the anti-war protest but not for the teabaggers who come armed with guns and threaten to overthrow the government. Telling.

[Rudie88]

how much oil must they have nicked so far? and how much heroin must they have imported from afghanistan? just like the move american gangster only this is real

[cyklonb1989]

this will probably be remembered in history as the biggest protest recorded against the overthrowing of a fascist regime.

[SirFelix377]

The people at this protest are true Patriots.

[smellyfooty]

in big numbers WE can not be stopped!

[DowntownHound]

I was at this march, and I'm in this video. Too bad more of the naysayers commenting here didn't listen to us back then. This was right before the war started. You would have saved our country a lot of money, lives, and respect if you had.

[8data]

its a legitimately organized protest, the people did their bit for the constitution, democracy and civil disobedience

without them, wed be a nation of sheep

[MajorKoenig2]

lol, *dumbass throws smoke bomb*, *Cops see him doing it*= "GET BACK HERE MOTHER FUCKER!!!!  *cops beat the shit out of dumbass*.........

[mfurstenau88]

San Francisco... Greatest place on earth

[wamcob]

That moron got what he deserved after throwing the smoke bomb at the cops.

[JulioKras]

"Bush and Oil..." sounds like a broken record.

[nickymace]

This is freedom and democracy that they are trying to spread around the world! I see neither of the two here!

[AOBSHADOWGLASS]

well im from ireland, and i have been to various countries in europe!but maybe im wrong maybe european countries have anti protest laws etc, but america is supposed to be the land of the free with freedom of speech etc,in this clip i dont see any freedom thats all!

[rugger8541]

you're free to assemble up until you block traffic. then your ass is grass.

[cycimian]

Its only the land of the free for the elite who would have anyone killed at anytime for anyreason. Outside of that more Americans have woken from that dream to this NWO nightmare.

[stig781]

@AOBSHADOWGLASS only according to ignorant fools...

[donttrustany1]

Iran aint got nothing on the US

[AOBSHADOWGLASS]

i feel sorry for americans who want to demonstrate! any country in europe would let them march "on the street" but it seems in america freedom of speech and right to protest is unlawfull! very sad to see!

[fcas2y6]

This 9 year old in Belfast is speechless. You have signs on sticks, canes, umbarellas, road signs and Starbucks table legs crying out to intercept cop motorcycle spokes. The zombies politely remain on the footpath. Wankers.

[trooperchicago]

Stupid clowns with no agenda and no job? Their parents must be proud of all the hard work they did with them, only to come out like the way they did in this video.

[dvbetty]

Well Trooper, mighty sure of yourself, aren't ya?

[imadizzy1]

@trooperchicago hahahaha, piggy's mad. Piggy still doesn't realize his piggy friends were wrong about the war. Piggy doesn't realize the protesters were right. Piggy doesn't know that according to the constitution "illegal assembly" doesn't exist. Piggy is a worthless, and likely violently racist pile of garbage. CPD are some of the lowest humans in existence- never forget Chicago '68, when the piggies showed the world how vile they really are

[unclespill]

Great footage...shoulds of aimed a lil better w/ the gas but that was dope

[frostbite1080]

SOOO much respect for the guy who through back the gas

[joshua777j]

protests where people are filmed and logged for future interogation more likely , hence the masks.looks like the nightmare vision that was supposed to be beyond belief . ok its not 1984 but its the same totalitarian vision with military police stopping free-speech . prison camps next.

[cfmb42009]

I have nothing against peacefull protests, but when more than half of the protestors are wearing masks and rags across their faces, your just asking for trouble. Key sign that their is going to be problems. and they look just like the terrorist you see on tv. cowards hiding their faces, and babbling shit someone brainwashed into their soo openminded heads. Oh college life, what happend to the days of animal house.

[xp5ych0x]

I like that they charged. You get more done if you're more militant, yet peaceful. Number is not enough.

[macman13]

They were PEACE advocates.  Do you not see the hypocracy there?

[uscguard]

So if your for peace you can break laws like walking into traffic of people who just want to go home and do what you want, you dont see the hypocracy in that

[macman13]

was that directed at me?

[uscguard]

you know it

[macman13]

I don't know what you meant, it sounded convaluded.
