Hundreds of Occupy D.C. Protesters Block Conservatives From Leaving Summit

Hundreds of Occupy D.C. Protesters Block Conservatives From Leaving Summit

Hundreds of Occupy D.C. protesters descended on the city’s convention center Friday night, blocking the streets around where a conservative group was gathered for an annual summit.

Demonstrators staged a “sit in” around the convention center for several hours and barred individuals inside from leaving the area, the Washington Post reported.

Three protesters were struck by a car, authorities told the Post. They were transported to an area hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

“The protesters were apparently trying to block the roadway,” D.C. police Lt. Christopher Micciche told the Associated Press. “It was essentially an accident where three individuals were injured but they were in violation by being in the roadway.”

Micciche said the car’s driver was not cited because he had a green light when his vehicle struck the protesters, who “either ran toward or jumped in front of the moving vehicle.” He said one pedestrian jumped on the hood of the car. One of them was cited for being in the roadway.

Protesters surrounded the driver’s car and shouted “Shame!” before he left, D.C.’s local Fox affiliate reported.

Occupy D.C. posted on its Twitter account that several protesters were arrested, though police told media outlets there had been no arrests.

Videos posted to YouTube and Twitter show large crowds massed in front of the convention center, chanting and shouting where the Americans for Prosperity “Defending the American Dream” summit was taking place. Americans for Prosperity is funded in part by Charles and David Koch, the brothers who run Koch Industries — apparently part of the reason protesters targeted the event.

Several protesters told the Post their main goal was to prevent conservatives from leaving the site.

According to one video posted on YouTube, a woman in a wheelchair was blocked from exiting the convention center by a group of protesters crowding outside one of the doors. They pressed signs reading “Government for the people” and “I am a human being” against the glass and chanted “This is what democracy looks like!”

Another video posted by the Media Research Council showed a group of protesters fighting with convention center security guards and placing two children in the center of the scuffle. There is a lot of yelling and the children can be heard crying. Content warning — strong language.

Stephen Gutowski gave this eyewitness account of the brawl on The College Politico:

At the start of the scuffle the protesters had been able to get inside the convention center and set up a makeshift barrier. This barrier consisted of what appeared to be several large wood trash cans from the center, a large metal recycling bin from the center, the two small children sitting in their wagon, and several occupiers either sitting on the floor or standing up.

The security guards, which may have been assisted by police officers (I’m not sure), then began moving the trash cans and forcing back the protesters. At first only about 5 or 6 protesters resisted the security guards while the rest filmed everything but as they forcibly pushed the protesters and the children’s wagon out of the doorway other protesters became incensed. At that point several other occupiers began screaming and pushing back against the security guards.

The children were extremely upset and crying by this point.

Here is the altercation from another angle:

      I predict that George Soros faces three possibilities. This being based on historical patterns in order of what is most likely. And before this can be construed as a threat let me add and end with a prayer for his safety that these things will not come to pass and have a change of heart that will lead to his ultimate salvation and spiritual transformation. In Jesus name. Amen.

      Some day:

      He will either commit suicide.

      Be killed by members of his own organization or related factions that he supports.

      Go to jail (if he’s lucky).

      Or who knows maybe flee to Europe and help put the anti-christ in power. Sorry George, I know you’d like to be but are too old according to prophesy time table according to most scolars to ever be the anti-christ yourself. Flee while you’ve got the chance. Again, I will be praying for you that you will come to Christ or the love of your own people who you have long since turned your back on. But as I see it right now. I wouldn’t want to bet one tired dime on your success, future, or legacy.

      Just saying.

      This from Occupy Oakland website;

      “We stand in solidarity with the Oakland General Strike as an anti-capitalist struggle that is part of a global movement for an economy that works for both the people and the planet. We pledge to continue to support efforts like this as we build grassroots internationalism for a more just and sustainable world.
      We call on all participants in the Oakland General Strike to continue this state of mobilization beyond November 2. …the next global day of action on December 3rd. This will be a day to connect the global economic crisis to the global climate crisis, a day to denounce the corporations that profit from harming our communities, our families and our planet, and a day to lift up grassroots solutions for economic and climate justice.”

      http://www.occupyoakland.org/total-general-strike/endorsements-from-organizations/

      The movement is clearly and rapidly becoming a movement to replace capitalism and the western way of life with socialism/communism….and with a one world/globalist free for all. And now includes UN environmental NWO references.

      What the protestors do not realize is that there is nowhere to run, nowhere to hide. Even with a Socia-Communistic society the ‘Elites’ will still be in charge but even more so.

      The protestors are trying to give a select few of wealthy individuals ( Rockefeller, Soros, Rothchilds and others) exactly what they want, ultimate power and control with suppression of all dissent there

      It is time for the people who are being blocked, to continue on their way and if these idiots block their way, well, a blow to the boy parts, or a block to the chin with an elbow, or a kick to the shin, and soon they way would be clear. If in a car, just put it in gear, lay on the horn, and very slowly proceed forward. If they don’t get out of the way, just keep going. What are a few speed bumps.

      I have had it with these people who think your rights stop when they say they do. I lost a very good job a few years ago when protesters went out of their permit limits and stopped all traffic on I-5 for two hours. The police stopped the traffic. I did request of the police that they arrest them, but they wouldn’t because they had the right to protest. I requested that they please allow me my civil rights to get to a job interview, but he just requested my car keys. I got his name and badge number and reported him to his supervisor, but nothing was done. When I attempted to file suit against the police, the judge threw it out stating that the police was protecting citizens exercising their civil rights. I then filed suit against the organizating group and its supporters, but the judge again threw it out saying I didn’t have standing because I was not guarenteed the job. Maybe next time I will bring my .45s and see if I can take my civil rights back!

      this is just more of the same crap.
      DC is run by liberals and NO ONE (unless you are a Political figure) can have a gun to defend themselves.
      that’s why this occupy crap doesn’t happen the Heartlands.
      The quickest way to stop people from rushing you car, especially if you have your family with you, is a 230gr Remington Golden Saber 45acp into the face of the idiots.
      And THAT is what would happen and the Marxist/Socialist “Organizers” know this.
      If you jump on the hood of my car, screaming at me, you are a dead man. And I’ll take every one of the idiots with me I can. And when the cops come, the story will be I was afraid for my life.
      And in MY Community, that is all that has to be said. Simple as that.
      So that “your sensei” MOron above that was mocking another person about “I wish I was there”? I don’t wish I was there, but I will not run if it comes here.

      at the end of the baby video the heroic filmer says ” that was unexpected ” What a shame ! Everybody should be expecting these people to throw a baby under the boots of police. I posted the Odessa Step scene here earlier in the week…>>>> http://youtu.be/8Lk75ycHH3w …>>> This is Michael moore’s script. Open a second window and play the Odessa scene at the same time as the baby incident. You will see how well planned and cast these B grade actors. The “mother ” in the red coat is the mother in black in the Odessa scene. Note how she end up the victim of a shoving match. The one guard who shoves into the mother is likely on the OWS team. The stocky lesbian is the horrified woman in the Odessa scene with the bloody glasses.

      When they restrict other peoples freedom they over step the bounds of the 1st amendment. They have a right to protest, to speak their minds, but they don’t have the right to endanger children, block people from coming and going. They don’t have a right break windows, turn over cars and threaten people’s lives and livelyhoods. They step on my rights, I will step on their head, its all just freedom you know…

      This whole OWS is showing that these people have no real character. It is a SAD day in the United States of America. Try living in a former Soviet country an you will discover the tragedy of socialism and communism. The people who lived under that failed system have deeply suffered. So many of them were locked (walled) into their country because the communists couldn’t let them see the BLESSING of a free republic where people were given the freedom to achieve. The direction our nation is heading is not good. Democrats and most Republicans better wake up. The time to correct this is passing fast.

      your sensei:
      My oh my. YOU are an ex-DA? Now I know WHY you are EX. While I agree and understand WHY these people are protesting, I think they are very confused. I am all for the freedom to protest. But, the real reason has been distorted. And, the Tea Party has nothing to do with it. I am surprised you said what you said as an EX-DA. I know for sure that a REAL EX-DA would not have said that.

      It is the CEOs that layoff thousands and then get millions in bonuses for doing so that I have a problem with.

      It is the upper management and Union heads that rake in millions from bailouts, which is the people’s money – NOT GOVERNMENT’S, that I have a problem with.

      And these protestors lump them all in one group called CAPITALISM, which is like saying that one bad white man makes all white men bad. SIMPLY ABSURD.

      Capitalism has been the financial economic choice since the early Biblical times and up to now. IT IS THE ONLY REASONABLE SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS MAP TO FOLLOW. However, if companies would stop REWARDING BAD BEHAVIOR AND POLICIES, Capitalism would continue to be the best choice.

      So, Mr. Ex-DA or Mrs. Ex-Da, whoever you are, STOP LYING TO YOURSELF AND TO US by making us sound like you know more than us, the Tea Party and anyone else just because you are an Attorney, which I will bet $1000 that you are not, and start telling the TRUTH.

      When are rank and file cops going to start demanding the laws they are sworn to uphold be enforced? Those cops on the street are doing the best they can with the orders given by the suits in offices. We should all start calling and writing the chiefs and sheriffs to demand the civil ability to gather and discuss our opinions without fear of these common street thugs.

      If this is allowed to continue, the desired result of the left is inevitable. Somebody will push too hard and too far and the rest will be history.

      I agree. It is kidnapping. But because this is an action taken by union supporters and socialists it’s no big E.

      How is it that socialists are always (literally) complaining about “fairness” and “equality” but they never actually support those ideals unless its to tear down fairness and equality across the board. Special interests only.

      When people (IF people) finally see reality (before its too late) this could serve as a great learning opportunity that exposes the blatant lies and hypocrisy that evil spawns.

      Remember, for the greater good of the “Collective” all is fair, even sacrificing small children. And they have the nerve to shout “Shame, shame” at the police? These wannabee activits need to be rounded up and put to work cleaning up the mess they have made of all these cities and forced to reimburse businesses, workers, and the municipalities who have had to tap their budgets greatly for all of this nonsense.

      Police should have been doing their job to protect innocent people who attended the peaceful summit inside the convention center. They should have formed a line of officers in full riot gear and walled off protesters and taking down agressive agitators in the group and arrested them for harrassment and assault. . Instead, they allow these idiots to intimidate and threaten. This an no tea party movement – this is civil unrest directedat at group of people who think differently than these idiots in the street. Racist, bigotry on a whole new scale. You can always tell dumb people because they fall for the old brainwash technique of repeating phrases over and over again when someone tells them to.

      Wonderful assessment by Lt. Christopher Micciche…

If you want examples of the “banksters” having too much POWER, let’s look at STRAUSS-KAHN! The man RAPES a woman and WALKS! Or Goldman Sachs! When other Wall Street Firms were allowed to FAIL (Bear-Stearns, Lehman Brothers) GS was able to get all of its toxic SWAP derivatives guaranteed by the US Taxpayer! AND GS gets to keep all of those high returns which would have been losses when Lehman (one of the biggest SWAP counterparties) failed! HELLO! I guess its just a COINCIDENCE that the GS executive roster is near identical to the New York Federal Reserve Bank’s leadership roster AND the US Treasury Dept’s list of appointments, huh? BUT the “fat cat” balloon focuses in on the Koch Brothers? Yes, you guessed it, the Kochs are NOT even Wall Street Tycoons! They are oil men. BUT they are also REPUBLICAN contributors.

      Someone should call CPS(Child Protective services) to come take those children away. That is irresponsible to put small children in harms way. It shows that that mother exercises poor judgement in the safety and security of those children. What if a fire broke out or something terrible and people are pushing to get out those little ones will get trampled. This is extremely disturing to me because it shows that the adults there with the kids have a reckless disregard for the safety of the little ones. Making the little ones cry another piece of abuse. I would never ever do that to a child. It truly shows what kind of people are doing this protest…. Selfish neglectful dangerous people. Please anyone in DC call CPS and report them.

      Marcia……
      This ‘IS’ Democracy at work. That is me being scarcastic, but actually the history of what you get with a Democracy. Democracy is really mob rule; a plurality; 51%. It is not a Constitutional Republic, which is governed by ‘elected’ representatives and, yes, we have experienced problems with that, too, but…… it is not the fault of the founding fathers. They were worried about little things like, well, government becoming too powerful or, one of the 3 branches having too much power. A good example is this fact: we have heard our ‘president’ recently saying he will do what he wants without the Congress?

      Our ‘elections’ could ,at least, be said to be Democratic, as they are a plurality but, not exactly. There is the Electoral College, which elects the President.
      What you’ve seen with the OWS people and at Wisconsin this past summer is why we have a CR. We are to be represented, not ruled by angry mobs, but, those representatives have been bought by special interest groups.
      It never was the Constitution that was the problem but, rather, the solution to our problems if we are to survive. As constructed, the Constitution would keep us a free and ‘independent’ Republic, not one giving away its soverenty to a ‘world’ body.
      As to OWS, there are certainly local ordinances that prevent having enterprise disrupted by an angry mob. They could quitely protest ,but they need to be an angry and destructive. Thats what Mobs do.

Between the money raised by the International Workers groups and Soros, these Occupy Mobs have no reason to complain about any conservative money raising or support.

      You are right! There’s an obvious double standard where the left certainly aren’t complaining about the M. Moore’s, Soros, and other limo libs, such as the talentless bohemian, Yoko Ono….also union leaders, Trumka and Stern. Race baiters, such as J.hi-Jackson and Sharpton aren’t exactly paupers. They are the one’s who are lining their pockets by exploiting useful idiots to perpetuate their wealth. Really is depressing to know that this mob can vote and who they give a free pass to.

    Do any of these people work for a living ? Or are they the same folks that have been put in the unemployment line by this addministration. The same addministration that killed millions of jobs through regulation. And the same addministration that now claims their main focus in life is to create jobs.

      This is what you get when Mommy and Daddy don’t require them to work to earn their college education…that’s who’s funding this bunch. Aren’t you proud parents of these useful idiots? If one or two of them would stop banging the drum long enough to just think (I know they have not been trained to really think), they would say to self, “Self, this is just really stupid and useless. I’m going to make a real difference. I’m going to go get a job and work my way up like the rest of the real people in this country, and I’m going to every town hall and write every letter and call every representative, and vote! And, I’m going to start trying to do something good for my fellow man instead of just living for me.” Oh, but that would require thinking and doing! Not going to happen – at least as long as Mommy and Daddy are paying for it! Wake up Mom and Dad!!!

      I had a neighbor tell me that she didn’t make her kids do any work, chores, or have responsibilities because they are only young once and they should enjoy it and not have to work. There would be time for work later in life. Well, that worked out well, huh??? I’m still watching those “kids” across the street…watching them closely, very closely!!! They’re in their 20s. They don’t work. They still take! And Mommy still funds them. Still to come: princesses and gamers – toddlers with tiaras – it’s funny that the pampered are the ones protesting the money bosses! The money is in their parents’ pockets! End of r

      Problem is that mummy and daddy have paid for everything that they have. They have no idea on how to work and expect a six figure salary starting out with a poetry degree. They’ve been brainwashed in the schools that they have attended and parents haven’t been parenting but working their tail off to provide for their kids and give them more and more, believing that communism and socialism are good, but since they don’t know history, understand why our country was founded, or even about the socialism or communism, they will be very surprised and upset if we ever become socialist or communist and see how things are not just and fair in these societies.

      We will see a huge, all out dawa campaign over the next few months to further the goals of The Jihad in America which has been ongoing since our founding.

      That so few recognize the danger inherent in the Islamic system is testament to the success of the Saudi funded dawa campaign. Children are taught in school to “respect” islam and “hate” America.

      Hopefully Americans wake up to the deception of Mohammed. We have no New Worlds to which we can run. America is the last place.

      And to complete the circle, Greece, symbol of the dawn of Western civilization, must also be destroyed. The Alpha and the Omega. The Intellectual light of Greece MUST be extinguished. The light of Liberty in America MUST be extinguished.

      They have been the victims of relentless dawa funded by the House of Saud. Why is there almost no reporting about the massive involvement of the House of Saud in the education of American children? Because the House of Saud invests in and exerts control over media outlets so that Islam and Allah are always resented in a positive light.

      I would bet, if we look long enough, we will find a muslim “advisor” working for The Blaze.

      And I would bet that Glenn Beck has invited a muslim “advisor” to walk at his side…to whisper sweet lies into his ear.

      @GONZO,

      A percentage of Democrats do support the protesters. However, you and I both know that this event was starting to be organized as early as Dec. of 2010 after the elections and the beating the Democrats took in the House. They started through various web-sites supported by George Soros and Radicals from the sixties that are now in some sort of leadership position with a union, college’s, organization’s, special interest group’s and even some corporations. They all support a Progressive Socialist Society, President Obama and they want to overthrow the Republic for a more European style government and establish a NEW WORLD ORDER. Even though the protesters are in about 90 U.S. Cities the groups are fairly small, most don’t even know the truth behind why their being paid to occupy. When anyone starts to talk to the press that is not part of the organizing group, the group steps in to shut them up. They are controlling the puppets, what a way to live. Over the next year we will see how this all plays out, their Leaders will be exposed and the truth will be revealed. The main stream media still thinks it’s a grass roots movement, l.o.l.

It’s ok for far left liberals to block someone’s way, put their children in the middle of an unsafe situation, etc., but not for conservatives. Can you imagine what the left would say if someone on the right (even just saying they were) tried to block the way of someone in a wheelchair, or used their children as a shield? They are the ones who should be ashamed. they’re all cowards.

      and are not counted until much later…if ever.
      We changed our status: from Absentee….to in-person, ballot box voting!

      Please vote in person. Bring someone with you if you must. I plan on bringing a video camera simply to record the conditions/surroundings from a distance (I sincerely don’t want to intimidate anyone) in case anything comes out later.

      Keep in mind, the socialist movement in this country is not supported by the majority. In the absense of intimidation and voter fraud, Civil America will return begining in January 2013. DO NOT FEAR THE BATTLE, FEAR THE CONSEQUENCES IF YOU LOSE.

    This mob should be arrested for taking people hostage. They are terrorists now. Can’t Obama call in a drone air strike or something? Oh yeah, he’s FOR these terrorists…

      You’re exactly right…this is a hostage situation and the police should have arrested people. Anyone else would be arrested and taken to jail for trying to do this to someone.

      Good zing. They are just spouting that other repeated lie “Corporations aren’t people.” This is to counter -act the future Supreme Court decision that Obama’s over reach on Executive Orders will cause. Obama and his loyal Lefties ( as in those who write comments in the NYT) have been bad-mouthing and dis-respecting the Supreme Court ever since the Citizens United decision. They want only Unions to have rights, not corporations. And they have been fanning the anti-Supreme Court flames almost as much as the anti-corporation, anti-rich, anti-bank flames. The Left has sunk to unimaginable depths of bulling, disruptive , and criminal behavior. And they have inflamed all of these naive, clueless idealists with their hateful rhetoric.

      “Democracy” IS mob rule. That is why our founders established a democratic REPUBLIC. It’s the republic part that protects the rights of the minority.

      I hate to clue you, but democracy IS mob rule, that is why the USA has never been a democracy, it’s a representative republic.

    If anyone was held against their will, that, in legal terms, is called ‘false imprisonment.’ Arrest them!

      Hey. You mean it is illegal to stand outside of a crosswalk and impede traffic ? Who would have thought? ( pssst: anarchists don’t BELIEVE in rules and laws. They only like Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals! )

      So they deserved to be killed for protesting? Wow this site is becoming unhinged. Do you “conservatives” not understand that ALL Americans have the right to own firearms and defend themselves, even libruls? Be careful what you wish for and do not show up on my property, just sayin…

      Here’s what they deserve. They deserve to know that actions equal consequences. They deserve to be arrested when they violate the law. They deserve no special treatment. They have no special standing, They deserve to be knocked on their collective A**es when the block ingress and egress to an occupied building. They deserve nothing more than our contempt, for placing children in harms way as a method of protest. This is what they deserve, a good ild fashioned a** whoopin’ But the law demands they get…arrest, booking, charging, detention, trial by jury…and jail. And that is as it should be, however, they are not held to the same standard as we mere conservatives..for had that been a Tea Party parent they would have been arrested already, plastered on every media outlet on four continents and tried in the court of liberal outrage…Oh, by the way…liberals with guns don’t scare me, you do’t have anything I want, and since I’ve been fighting your wars and bad guys my entire life, I’m up for the light work.

      Under the laws of most states, anytime you illegally inhibit someone’s ability to freely leave a room, structure, car, or other vehicle, etc it is false imprisonment. You could argue that the protesters had demands, therefore the people in the building were in fact “hostages.”
