Super Funky Hippies gone WILD!!!

A serious police situation erupted downtown Monday afternoon! Columbus was on Red Alert! We were at DEFCON 1!...or 5!...whichever is worse! I'm not sure! What was the source of all this pandemonium??
These bad boys...and girls. Hippies. Well, I'm not sure if they were "Hippies", but my definition of "Hippy" has slowly morphed over the years. It used to be almost anyone who donned a tie-dye shirt and sandles, (at the same time), while going on about their hemp...whatever. That was deemed a hippy...in my mind. That definition has sort-of morphed over the years to encompass those individuals who fear or actively hate on the "establishment", as well as have a serious aversion to soap and water, (these hippsters were RIPE!).
To give you some background, apparently they started what they termed was a "peaceful" protest in front of some company wanting to open a new coal burning powerplant. About 100 of them showed up to this protest, (I bet the smell was AMAZING). Well, according to some of them, a couple of their "brothers and sisters" were pepper sprayed and tased for NO REASON WHATSOEVER!! UNPROVOKED!! Like, Dude! She was totally complying with the officers and they tased her 3 times!! Coal KILLS!! Aren't you glad you DIDN'T use Dial?? Don't you wish NObody did?

yea.

Police make a habit of tasing people for NO reason...it gives them a rush. Actually, if I heard right, the CPD officer manual clearly states they actively tase all Hippies on site...or smell...whichever. Anyhoo, this other picture is of a scanner at the desk. Since I can't quite keep all my posts timely, and since the hippy pics were taken on monday, the scanner counts as my tuesday, July 8th, picture of the day. So eat that!

Those pics look like they were protesting at the rear of the Franklin County courthouse. I didn't even know that Franklin County was building a coal-burning powerplant. You'd have thought they'd be picketing at the large & "power"ful American Electric Power building at Long & Marconi. Maybe those greenie, tree-hugging, enviro-idiots need a map?!
Tase 'em! Tase 'em all and let God sort it out!
(They'll probably complain that tasers waste valauble electric energy, hehehe.)

LOL, the protest actually started somewhere else I can't remember...but I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't the right location even then!

Tase the bastards!!
