Sleep easy Denver protesters

No razor wire at Denver convention holding cells
DENVER (AP) — Police have dropped plans to top the holding cells in place for use during next week's Democratic convention with razor wire after some groups started comparing the site to the detention facility for suspected terrorists at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

"We rethought those plans and came up with a way to put a lid on the cells instead of the razor wire," Denver Undersheriff William Lovingier said Wednesday as he led reporters on a tour of the cells in a city warehouse that will be the "Temporary Arrestee Processing Site."

The cells will be topped with chain-link fencing, the same material used to make the cell walls.

The warehouse is a couple miles from the Pepsi Center, where the convention begins Monday. It also is about a mile from the South Platte River, which explains the protesters' nickname for it: "Gitmo on the Platte."
So there you go hippies and Hillary diehards: you will not slice your shit up while trying to escape your makeshift Denver prison. Nor will you bleed your patchouli stink onto Denver's expensive chain links. You know how hard it is to get that smell off of metal? Just know that you may get maced, possibly fire hosed, and your large derisive puppet will be torn from your hands and smashed into papier-mâché oblivion. Also: tasers. John Elway might come by to fire some footballs at your tender bits.

Frankly you need to be taught a lesson: no protesting or demonstrating within the eyesight of your elected betters. This isn't mardi gras, we have designated 'free speech zones' now. Don't you dare step one toe out of it or your crudely made "No blood for Oil", "NObama", or "Hillary 4 Evar" sign will have 10,000 volts running through it. Just be thankful you're dealing with the Democrats here. You fuck around with McCain's funeral dirge in Minnesota and they'll just brick you up in the coke oven of an abandoned steel plant. Razor wire is too good for the likes of you.
