Occupy Protester Arrested In $10M Arson Fire - Denver News Story - KMGH Denver

Quote:
FORT COLLINS, Colo. -- Police have arrested an Occupy Fort Collins protester in connection with a $10 million arson fire that damaged dozens of condominiums and businesses in Fort Collins.

Gilmore joined the Occupy Fort Collins movement in mid-October.

“He showed up on the 3rd or 4th day,” said Rich Crisler, who identified himself as the media coordinator for Occupy Fort Collins.
Yep, this is what democracy looks like...and it only took a few month to illustrate what these leftists/anarchists/socialists/commies are all about.

Wait a minute. Why was the protester arrested? Isn't arson a 1st amendment right?

OP, you have some obsession with what's going on in Colorado. Also, your title is wrong. The person was from Occupy Ft. Collins and he has NOT been convicted.

Oh, thanks for that, I corrected it, but for some reason it's not taking hold in the title. Oh well.

So what if he hasn't been convicted. Do you think that means it shouldn't be reported?

OWS are full of terrorists, hurting innocent civilians. They should be ashamed.

I imagine the OWS supporters would like this NOT to be news, but that's not going to happen.
I'm sure you'll start a new thread to inform us if and when the guy is found NOT guilty right?
