local6.com - Politics - Protestors Ransack Bush/Cheney Headquarters In Orlando

Yet another example of political violence directed against Bush supporters (see below). This one is in Orlando, FL, home of Disney's famous New Urbanist planned community, Celebration.
You'd think with all that physical beauty around people would be more mellow, like Jimmy Buffett. You know, feeling celebratory. But noooooooooo. Must be the after-effects of the Chain O' Hurricanes.

Seriously, though--Bush's Seattle campaign HQ was burglarized last week and computers with campaign plans were stolen. Yesterday somebody shot up the Nashville HQ. Today people "stormed and ransacked" the Orlando HQ. I hope this isn't the start of something more widespread.

A group of protestors stormed and then ransacked a Bush-Cheney headquarters building in Orlando, Fla., Tuesday, according to Local 6 News. Local 6 News reported that several people from the group of 100 Orlando protestors face possible assault charges after the group forced their way inside the Republican headquarters office. While in the building, some of the protestors drew horns and a mustache on a poster of President George W. Bush and poured piles of letters in the office, according to the report.
