City Hall protest Chicago 20090729

WARNING: This video is politically incorrect.

This is a case study of how communists co-opt a cause and twist it around for their own use. A July 29, 2009 protest at Chicago's City Hall, against the city getting the 2016 Olympics, was mashed in with other groups, protesting a variety of things from parking meters to taxes to bank bailouts. Most of the chanting was against gentrification and parking meters. At one point, the "No Games Chicago" organizer had to remind the communists running the show to include "Olympics" in the chanting. About 1/3 of the protesters spoke no English, providing a funny moment when many in the crowd couldn't correctly repeat what one of their leaders was chanting. The protest was "initiated by" the Chicago Parking Meter Campaign groups involved with this multi-purpose protest were: ANSWER Chicago, Centro Communitario Juan Diego, International Socialist Organization, No Games Chicago and the Party for Socialism and Liberation.

There is also a set of incredible legs in this video.

you're not very smart are you?

[dadadahdom]

it's a shame how they make their children protest, they are filling their minds with their opinions not facts.

maybe you should check your facts. it WAS a protest against parking meters. others jumped on board. if ANYONE co-opted it, it was No Games. Perhaps an intelligent person can see how they're all connected... obviously that is not you....
